Not everyone is going to jump into a business idea shelling out thousands of dollars on product to go the FBA route. There is NOTHING wrong with starting out on FBM to get your feet wet and get familiar with the territory.

FBA fees for storage are very high and a beginner with a smaller capital reserve might benefit starting out FBM and make five ten or twenty K before switching over to FBA. Things can get lost too and losing your product starting out can be a big hit. Plus with FBA you gotta buy expensive barcodes. Both are good but FBA is for sure for the more experienced sellers who have dialed in their math and their metrics to afford all the fees and still grow and benefit with the prime preferred sales
In your 8 years of experience, I think you’re taking for granted the learning curve involved with setting up an Amazon store. FBM is the way to go when you’re first getting started though, especially if you’re new to selling online. It’s literally “The tuition fee”.
Profitability with FBM is significantly higher. I’ve been fba for 10 years. Just started fbm, and regret not starting sooner. No “lost” inventory. No storage fees. No long term storage fees. No removal order fees. You can make money on shipping. More control over returns and the costs. The biggest issue with fbm for me is how amazons shitty algorithm favors fba. I wish it didn’t, if amazon did their job correctly instead of stealing your inventory, refusing to pay, gating you after your stuff was already at fba, refunding customers 6 months later without your permission, I wouldn’t have even considered fbm.
Fees are higher, getting charged for the space your items take up, you have to label everything before you send it in, your boxes you send in can only be "x" dimensions, etc. I'll stick with FBM. Still making plenty of money.
I tried FBA so many hidden fees especially when you are not selling. Storage fees, seller account fees etc, interest fees etc. it is difficult to compete for prices as it is saturated already with Chinese vendors
i work in amazon warehouse , i know the negative side of fba, the people in amazon they always delay the product to go on the way to storage , i always seen the product on the floor over weeks and no one come to solve it out , maybe there is a label missing or little bit damage , and their problem solving team take ages to come and take the stuff , i'm currently starting amazon seller centre , i think fbm is much more better ofc it takes more time to deal with the product , but at least there wont be unnecessarily problems .
Is there a way to begin selling on Amazon without holding inventory? Meaning it could be started with no revenue ideally. Once an order is placed the manufacturer ships it out. I’m trying to learn / look at my options
Can we drop off our finished products to their Amazon warehouse so that they can take care of our orders and shipping then prime if we apply for the Amazon handmade business plan?
I recently switched from FBA to FBM, cuz Amazon lost about 13% of my inventory in their warehouse and wouldn’t reimburse me for anything. I sell LEGO primary, maybe that why the % of lost inventory were so high cuz Amazon employees might snitched out here and there.
Only true if your lazy and think u will be able to dumb thousands into a product and it instantly sell, when u first start it’s gonna take you like 5-10 items to find a hot seller you can compete with, also the whole dealing with customer support is BS, with Amazon’s trash return policy, there is no talking or anything to them, you give them a refund or they cancel the request, if not it’s just gonna hurt your account health
If you got the time, there is nothing wrong with FBM! If you still got a job , brother let amazon do the work. There is this Chinese saying. Those who pay do not do things and those who do things do not pay. So you choose!
I understand what’s he’s saying but what happens when Q4 rolls around and you can’t send anything through FBA for the holidays. That where FBM comes in

I 100% agree. In my opinion, it’s way way easier to start with FBM because then you learn the process first.

Fba is easier.
You're better off being an eBay seller than an FBM seller.
Steve is such a great dude. All he’s ever done is try to be helpful.
As a beginner , if you do FBA, you lose money even if you don't have sales yet.. Good advice man.. 😅
?
You can set up Seller Fulfilled Prime and still get the buy box. This video distinctly isnt for New Sellers.

Which app for products would you recommend?
How is your fbm going now?
I’m invested 👆 do share more actually me and my wife are starting fba now I’m not so sure
Smart! Some tips I haven’t head with tons of videos I’ve watched thus far! Thank you!
Fees are higher, getting charged for the space your items take up, you have to label everything before you send it in, your boxes you send in can only be "x" dimensions, etc.
I'll stick with FBM. Still making plenty of money.
Just wanting to ask around how much could you make working full time as an fbm?
@@sssideshows9712depends on product
Right i just learned this but fba have a prime logo on your name making yourself more valuable
How much space/storage/units do you own to be satisfied as an FBM?
@@sssideshows9712that depends on how many brands you can get ungated in or if you can find a good source for your inventory.
I tried FBA so many hidden fees especially when you are not selling. Storage fees, seller account fees etc, interest fees etc. it is difficult to compete for prices as it is saturated already with Chinese vendors
Hooyyaaaaa

Is there a way to begin selling on Amazon without holding inventory? Meaning it could be started with no revenue ideally. Once an order is placed the manufacturer ships it out. I’m trying to learn / look at my options
Yes, through dropshipping
You can get a prime badge with fbm give the people right information
Rarrrrrrrwwwww
It is possible but FBA is always beating them to the buybox
Can we drop off our finished products to their Amazon warehouse so that they can take care of our orders and shipping then prime if we apply for the Amazon handmade business plan?
@@Raikenprofitis this accurate, can you get a prime badge?
@@Raikenprofit lol this dude is a clown guru.
I recently switched from FBA to FBM, cuz Amazon lost about 13% of my inventory in their warehouse and wouldn’t reimburse me for anything. I sell LEGO primary, maybe that why the % of lost inventory were so high cuz Amazon employees might snitched out here and there.
FBM is the same thing I did selling on eBay. It was fun shipping stuff 😂😂😂
Nobody mentions even with fba your product isnt ever likely to be listed at the top as ppl constantly under price you
FBM can work, but you’re missing out on the Prime customers. FBA helps you reach way more buyers, man.
Only true if your lazy and think u will be able to dumb thousands into a product and it instantly sell, when u first start it’s gonna take you like 5-10 items to find a hot seller you can compete with, also the whole dealing with customer support is BS, with Amazon’s trash return policy, there is no talking or anything to them, you give them a refund or they cancel the request, if not it’s just gonna hurt your account health
What happens to “your merchandise” when returned to Amazon?
Doesn’t, it gets sent directly back to you. (Your business address, home address, etc.)
It is good.
🚲You've captured the essence perfectly.☺.May your unwavering commitment to excellence be the driving force behind your career success.
As a beginner I knew Fba would be the better choice if ure willing to put in a little extra
NEVER EVER believe anyone who speaks off camera to a wall pretending there is someone else there! LOL
I was live on YT lol
So do Amazon insist you only ship to them with boxes.
Do they allow satchels or padded envelopes.
now with minimum inventory requirement, FBM is the way if you can't keep that level low and high..
Who is bro talking to 😅
Great question!
The mirror 🪞
Can you switch from FBM to the FBA?
That's funny that you say that because eBay doesn't have any fulfillment service
Not everyone is approved for fba
What about all the other channels apart from Amazon to sell on that sending your inventory to Amazon excludes?
If you got the time, there is nothing wrong with FBM! If you still got a job , brother let amazon do the work. There is this Chinese saying.
Those who pay do not do things and those who do things do not pay. So you choose!
I am going to start Amazon FBA, is there anyone who can guide me.
Same. How have things been going for you since starting?
Why not looking to the camera? You are not talking to anybody infront of you
😂😂😂😂😂

As long as u have the time ⏰ to do FBM. Then DO IT. U keep more money in pocket 💰 fba is way more costly
Amen!
Ight bet
What happens if it doesn’t sell ?
It means you just hold on to the products
@@on9francisyu and don’t tank the prices out of fear
Then youll be paying the rent
If it’s at Amazon they send it back to you as unfulfilled even if your expiration date is not here .
very dependant on the business plan - its not a one solution for all
💯
camera’s this way buddy..
Weird im FBM and dont have to deal with shipping, boxes, labels or anything.
Then that's not FBM..Google the definition
Can an Amazon FBA change your voice? Dear god!!
Fees are a little higher lol
More like A LOT HIGHER.
Like almost 50% 😅
Woooooooooow
FBM can get the Buy Box is it harder to get yes is it possible to beat out a FBA offer 100%
