Amazon FBA can be daunting - It requires substantial research and focus to begin, and then requires you to invest your own money. Whether your aim is Private-Label or you'd like to wholesale other brands, make sure you do enough research (but don't get analysis paralysis)



I won't get into the nitty-gritty details, what I will do is explain a few main points to help you as you embark on your eCommerce journey.


Tip #1 - Do your research with Software!


The Most Common issue I see with prospective new sellers is their research. Most sellers tend to not do enough research and a few do too much resulting in analysis-paralysis.


For Private-Label:

The best way to move onward is to research over a month or two, doing about 20-30 hours of research. Spend the first 5 hours aimlessly browsing Amazon, regardless of category (forgo jewelry, clothing, shoes, supplements, and ingestibles). Jot some ideas & questions down and continue, don't get held up in the smaller details. After 5 or so hours, consider getting Helium10 or JungleScout (there are others however I use Helium10) and continue browsing via "Black Box"


Format each tip's title to H2 to keep your post neat.


Tip #2 - Explain more


The middle tips should go into a bit more detail, explain more. Keep them short and to-the-point. E.g., if you're writing a post about how to blog, you can write something like: "Decide how often you want to blog. Be realistic about it. Think you can blog twice a month? Commit to once a month and stick to it."


"Include quotes by experts in your post to add credibility." – SEO specialist

Tip #3 - Make it personal


Feel free to include personal details and examples. The more relatable you or your website is, the more you connect with your readers.


Tip #4 - Mix it up


Try different blog formats each time. One month, post a day in the life, then try a How-To or a Q&A. There are many templates to help you get started.


Tip #5 - Finish strong


Your final tip will lead into your post’s conclusion. For example, “Lastly, knowing just a little bit about SEO can go a long way in helping your blog succeed. You can learn more about SEO in our guide.” Then be sure to add a link to your guide here.


Don’t Forget to Add a Closing Statement


Keep it short. Restate your main point and tell your readers what you want them to do next. Don’t be shy. Just tell them: Buy Now, Click Here, Read This, and link to it. You can also invite them to leave a comment below your post.
