Steps To Selling On Amazon - Merchant Account and Fees

Amazon FBA ( Fulfillment By Amazon ) is how we recommend selling on Amazon if you want to get started selling your products. The best thing about Amazon FBA is that Amazon does the fulfillment for you. If you think about it, thats a lot of work, stress, and resources off you shoulder so you can focus on just delivery quality product. The Amazon FBA system is setup to be so efficient, quick, and includes quality customer service so you dont have to. This is the typical life a person who sells on Amazon through Amazon FBA:

Step 1: Find products to sell on Amazon

Step 2: List products on Amazon.com

Step 3: Prepare products and stuff to be sent to Amazons warehouses

Step 4: Ship the items to Amazons warehouses

Step 5: Amazon unpacks and stores your inventory for you, many sellers take advantage of dropshipping where. With dropshipping sellers never even have to prepare their products and instead they are shipped directly to warehouses.

Step 6: Your products will now show up live on Amazon.com and are featured as a Prime Eligible for customers to see

Step 7: An Amazon BUYER orders your product(s)

Step 8: Amazon warehouses are set up to find and ship your products to the customer

Step 9: Your customer receives their purchaes in 2 days if they are a prime member

Step 10: Customers are happy and you make great sales

You will have to pay Amazon a percentage of all sales and some handling/shipping fees. When Amazon is handling the Fulfillment for you, you are free to sell as many items as you want because you dont have to worry about having time to process and ship out all of those orders! All you have to do is SELL SELL SELL! eBay sellers do not have this option and must devote part of their business to handling their own fulfillment. On eBay, the more items you list and sell the more time you must devote each day to prepare, process orders, and ship those items.
