Want to get rich from Amazon? Well, think again
Amazon's vast marketplace promises financial freedom, passive income, and the ability to work from anywhere. However, the path to riches on the platform requires braving several difficulties.
The first of the obstacles is finding two crucial things to kickstart your Amazon journey: the right product and the right supplier.
Finding the right product
Doing this isn't as simple as picking an item you like or think others will want. The market is incredibly competitive—choosing the wrong product can make or break your Amazon business.
You need to consider:
- Extensive market research. Identify a niche with high demand but low competition by analyzing sales data, competition levels, and market trends.
- Profit margins. A popular product is no good if it’s not profitable.
- Trends vs. longevity. Find evergreen products that consistently sell over time rather than trendy ones.
- Legal and safety considerations. Some products, especially toys, electronics, and beauty products, are subject to strict regulations and safety standards. Make sure you can comply to avoid fines, product recalls, or legal actions.
Finding the right supplier
Once you've identified a promising product, the next challenge is finding a reliable supplier that offers:
- Excellent quality control. Conduct factory inspections and request samples to verify their quality control operations and credibility.
- Easy negotiation and communication, especially if they’re overseas. This includes securing written agreements for specifications, payment terms, and delivery schedules to avoid delays and errors in your orders.
- Proper lead times and inventory management. You don’t want stockouts or overstocking as these can significantly affect your margins.
- Smart cost management. The key is to balance competitive pricing and quality, which could require trial and error.
So, are you ready to get rich from Amazon?
The prospect of getting rich from selling on Amazon is undoubtedly appealing. To achieve this goal, you must have realistic expectations and a thorough understanding of the challenges involved—something EZ-commerce has.
Its founder, Dvir Cohen, knows very well that it’s not a get-rich-quick scheme. That’s why he’s willing to share the secret of becoming an eight-figure earner like himself (Hint: it involves PPC).
