Guys last year I make $56000 by selling on eBay and amazon with help of *MyOnlineSelling. Com* I do recommend this website to all you guys who wants to make money with eBay and amazon…
The best seller list on Amazon shows the top 100, which I would expect would be difficult to compete in. I'd rather know what the top 500 or top 1000 is. Is there a simple way to determine the top 500 or top 1000 instead of just top 100 by category? My thought had been to just try to get lucky, to browse random items in categories until I stumble across one that is a top 1000, that seems terribly time consuming though since it may not even be an item I can get or sell.
Your 4th point was to check out amazon best sellers! How do we set up wholesale accounts with the distributors of those products if we are not supposed to be selling products that are already selling on amazon? Hope you can answer since i'm slightly confused at this part. Please & thank you!
Why are you thinking you're "not supposed to be selling products that are already selling on amazon." That's not a problem unless you're creating a new sales page for those items. If you sell on the main sales page for that item you're fine.
Guys last year I make $76000 by selling on eBay and amazon with help of *MyOnlineSelling .Com* I do recommend this website to all you guys who wants to make money with eBay and amazon…
Thank you so much...I have a question I hope you can help me..I am a new seller in amazon. I am planing to go to texas and get some items from ca hineese distributor wholesale , but those items don't have upc barcode to check if they are not restricted by amazon..some do have upc barcode, but when I scan them on the amazon app nothing shows ..so how would I be able to know if they are not restricted? I dont want to buy without knowing if I will be able to sell it on amazon and without knowing how much profit I can get out of them..I hope to hear from you thank you.
Question: How do you get discounts from distributors? Many of the distributors I’ve ran into have their prices half off suggested retail price, which will not work on Amazon were prices seem to already be half off suggested price. This is my biggest problem right now. I don’t understand why’d I’d go distributors over manufacturers, it will be harder and higher min, but I could meet needed margins.
Hi ... thanks for your content! This may sound like a silly question but I've narrowed down a couple products and looking at overseas wholesalers and wondered if you can send products directly to Amazon for fba or do you have it sent to yourself and then send it to Amazon? TIA 😊
I would recommend sending the first order to your house so you can inspect the quality of your order. Then, I'd send the order's to a prep company who will prep the inventory the right way. A prep company like www.fulltimefba.com/my-inventory-team.
We have been selling on Amazon for several years.(mostly retail arbitrage and old office supplies) We are registered as a business and do have a resale license. However, we have not had much luck with wholesale. We have spent a lot of time contacting them directly only to find out that a majority of them want nothing to do with an FBA seller. Obviously, you can't lie to them, and many times they want your storefront info. I think it's getting worse because there is such a flood of FBA sellers. Additionally, the very few that we do actually get through their product list..it ends up not being profitable on Amazon even with the wholesale discount that they provide. I've seen videos that make it sound very simple...just setup a wholesale account and start making profits. I don't see how it is that simple? Can you offer any tips? Thank you.
The wholesale course is closed right now. It's only open to the public once as year. Go here to sign up to be noticed when it opens again: www.fulltimefba.com/wholesaleworkshop. You can also grab my beginners guide to wholesale here: www.fulltimefba.com/wholesaleguide
Hi. Good info. I have found some extras thanks to you. Also I think you have a good resemblance to Robert Kirkman from the walking dead? Keep up the good work.
WOW you were at Game 4. INCREDIBLE. Love the video. I am just starting out in the FBA world and would love to connect. I have an e commerce site that sells one thing in particular right now and looking to do do a TON of FBA stuff. Your video is very enlightening and informative. Nice work Stephen! (Just a guess with the name tag in the background) ;-)
I sometimes tell them and sometimes don't, but if they ask, I always tell them the truth. I'm not trying to hide the fact I'm an Amazon seller. By the way, if you're looking for a resource that gives you wholesale companies that are open to selling to Amazon resellers, check out this resource: www.fulltimefba.com/worldwidebrands. They have a filter where you can only search for brands happy to sell to Amazon sellers.
Where on Amazon's Best sellers page, can I find the supplier for that item? I found the page and the categories but I cannot find who the manufacturer/supplier is of that item? Can that information be found somewhere else? Thanks
You have to look at each item's product page and usually the manufacturer's name is either right above or right below the product title. Then you can google the manufacturer's name to find the contact info. Hope this helps. For more info on wholesale check out: www.fulltimefba.com/wholesaleformula
The only thing that I am seeing below the title of the product is customer reviews and answered questions. Here is an example. This link is to the #7 best selling product in Beauty and Personal Care. I just picked this product at random. How can I find the manufacturer? Thanks www.amazon.com/Radha-Beauty-USDA-Certified-Organic/dp/B00LNOV8JO/ref=zg_bs_beauty_7?_encoding=UTF8&refRID=FM88C6H4X6F6ZNWT2BJE&th=1
Full-Time FBA That was a bad example because they are also the FBA seller. If they are the manufacturer and the seller, would this be an example of private labeling?
Thanks for the video. If you buy directly from the manufacturer or from a distributor (supplier) whose brand or category is restricted do THEY BOTH give you the necessary documentation to become ungated?
Amazon 100%. I don't recommend dropshipping. It sounds like easy money, but there are a lot of potential problems when dealing with dropshipping Amazon products.
Can you recommend a script I can follow or start with in talking to wholesale suppliers? A lot of suppliers are not open to sales on Amazon, or they are selling directly on Amazon already. I am just trying to come up with a script to introduce myself and ask if I can be an approved vendor, etc. But I'm kind of a beginner, so what else can I say to improve my chances? Thank you.
Are these the methods you used to find your manufacturers/distributors? I've looked at packaging and actually taken pictures so that I have the manufacturer's name, address etc. I haven't tried the "Tradeshow no-show" though. Would you recommend ASD as one of the biggest lists?
I've used all methods to find wholesale accounts. Some work more for them than others.... but other people find great success with the ones I don't as much. I would think ASD has the biggest lists... and registration for ASD is free... so you can register and get the wholesale contacts, but never actually go to the event - although I recommend going someday!
You can look at the brand name on the Amazon product page, and then try to reach out to the brand to seek to become a wholesale distributor. Some will let you, and some will not. I wish you all the best.
very helpful video, thank you! besides the options you mention, I tried Matchory to find wholesalers and it was less effort with more efficient results. they found me really good manufacturers, have you heard of it before?
I have not heard of them but will check them out. I also use this source for wholesale sources: www.fulltimefba.com/worldwidebrands (just not for drop shipping, but for wholesale orders).
droshky Will they help me find suppliers? The suppliers list that i purchased, all have items that nobody is buying. I’m very interested in finding suppliers who have good products in their inventory
This is an old video so you may not answer, but I am wondering do you have to have a business address for distributors to deal with you? Or can I have cases delivered to my house?
You can use your home address and that will work just fine. IF your order is huge you might need to let them know that you need a lift gate for the delivery (since a truck can't back in to deliver your stuff to a loading dock.
Hey Stephen, I have been trying to get an answer to this and I can't figure it out and it may sound stupid...if I am having the manufacturer ship directly to Amazon fulfillment centers with my shipping label I paid for and printed then I shouldn't be paying the manufacturer for shipping right?
If your manufacturer agrees to ship directly to Amazon and use your shipping labels via the shipping company you pick, then you don't need to pay them any shipping fees, but handling fees are possible (to cover the cost of the boxes, packing time, etc).
Full-Time FBA I should of specified...i meant the shipping labels Amazon provide me to get them to their warehouse since we have to put the ship from address
Hello Stephen. Do wholesalers generally sell to regular people? Do smaller wholesalers permit it and not others? I emailed a few wholesalers but haven't heard back yet.
Oh yes! Some wholesalers have minimum orders of $500, but others have minimum orders of $100... and will sell to anyone with a proper sales tax certificate. To get your sales tax certificate, you can go to www.fulltimefba.com/states and pick your state and find the link on the next page to get it.
Thank you Stephen, already have my sales tax certificate. I heard back from a couple wholesellers, but their prices leave very little room for profit. I'm passing on anything that isn't at least 80% roi. What are you thoughts for how risky new sellers like myself should be? Is it realistic to expect to find 100% roi products from wholesellers? I've only been doing amazon FBA for 4 months :)
I was wondering how good or bad worldwide brands.com is? recently heard about it and it seems you can search any product or brand. but haven't yet paid 300 for the membership yet as I was wondering if it's any good before I do
I don't recommend them for dropshipping, but for buying direct from wholesalers to sell on Amazon, it's been good. I like that they tell you which wholesalers are pre-approved to sell to Amazon sellers. Find out more here: www.fulltimefba.com/worldwidebrands.
I'm finding it difficult to find legitimate toy suppliers who want to work with Amazon sellers. Is this because Amazon requires a CPC for certain ages, or that Amazon sellers tend to price tank and effect brand image?
This site (that requires a fee to join) has a huge list of wholesale suppliers who are happy to sell to Amazon resellers. You can even use the search filter and only see wholesalers who work to Amazon resellers. Here is the link: www.fulltimefba.com/worldwidebrands
Hey stephen. I live in the middle east and have started online arbitrage on amazon. My question is whether i can find wholesalers online who would be willing to do business with someone living outside us? Hope i am clear
Full-Time FBA Its a French word, adapted from Latin, its best to say it the French way. its like somebody telling you how to say your name, then when corrected they tell you that you're both right. my law lecturer actually did that a few weeks ago and I spent 20 mins arguing with him about how to say my own name. a French name: Dondre, pronounced Dondré, he said Dondra. Its very frustrating to listen to.
Tradeshows are always the best. 1000s of vendors, hard to not find a good connection

I'd wager that looking at product boxes and also at Amazon Best Sellers, are sources that most budding wholesalers would overlook! Thanks!

The more you buy, the higher discount you should get from a wholesaler.

So when you approach companies for wholesale, do you tell them up front your selling on Amazon before opening an account?
I sometimes tell them and sometimes don't, but if they ask, I always tell them the truth. I'm not trying to hide the fact I'm an Amazon seller.

Looks like the manufacturer name is Radha Beauty.
Full-Time FBA That was a bad example because they are also the FBA seller. If they are the manufacturer and the seller, would this be an example of private labeling?
Thanks for the video. If you buy directly from the manufacturer or from a distributor (supplier) whose brand or category is restricted do THEY BOTH give you the necessary documentation to become ungated?
They both can, but the manufacturer is better.
Is the manufacturer better just because it has better prices?
