Top 10 Must Have Tools For Amazon FBA Sellers

by The Selling Family

When it comes to running a business of any kind, there are always tools that can make running that business much easier.  Having an Amazon FBA business is no different. 

When you first get started, I recommend sticking with the very basics to keep costs low.  But as your business becomes profitable, I would start adding in new tools to increase your productivity.

Below is a list of our top tools that we can’t run our business without now.  

Services For Your Amazon Business

Inventory Lab

Inventory Lab is the service that we use for listing products on Amazon.  We like to use them to list because we are able to print our labels individually at the time of adding each item to our inventory.  Rather than waiting until the end of the shipment and printing them out on Avery Labels.

Another benefit of using Inventory Lab is we can keep track of our profitability for each SKU that we send to Amazon.  It’s not a full-on accounting/bookkeeping system.  So, we don’t use it for taxes, just to see how profitable we are as items sell.  

We use 3 tools total for all the “money” stuff in the business, and you can see all of the differences here.

The cost for Inventory Lab is currently $49 a month.

Scoutify

Scoutify is the scanning app that comes with an Inventory Lab subscription.  The reason that we use this as our main scanning tool when doing in-store sourcing is because there are a lot of great integrations built right in.  

For example, we can easily check the camel camel camel history, or the Keepa history of the items that we are scanning.

This app is very easy to navigate when you first install it.

The cost is free for Inventory Lab subscribers (so $49 a month)

Shipping Supplies / Tools

Better Pack 333 Tape Dispenser

The Better Pack Tape Dispenser has made a huge difference when it comes to packing our shipments.  This may seem like a weird thing to be excited over.  But when we use regular packing tape, we usually do 3 pieces of tape across the top seam and the bottom seam.  Just to make sure it stays close.

With this paper tape, we are able to just use 1 piece of tape across the top and bottom seam.  Then we are comfortable with knowing that it will stay closed. 

This is the type of tape that very large companies use.  It’s similar to that black tape that Amazon uses that says “Amazon” across it.  

You can set the dial to the length of tape that you need, and when you pull the lever it will automatically cut that size tape for you.  So just pull the lever, grab the tape and seal the box.  That easy!

The cost is around $400 for the machine and then about $20 for the rolls of tape (they are very large).

Dymo Label Printer

The Dymo Label printer can be used in conjunction with a 3rd party listing service (such as Inventory Lab) so that you can print labels our one at a time, as you add them to a shipment.  

Aside from just printing the Amazon FNSKU labels (the one’s that tell Amazon the product is yours, that you put on the UPC code during the shipping process).  You can also use the Dymo to print out your own “this is a set” stickers, suffocation warnings or even custom expiration date labels.  You do these from within the actual Dymo software.

This one printer prints out 1,000’s of labels for us every month, and has run great for over 5 years!  We’ve never had to replace it or had any problems with it.

The cost is around $100 for the LabelWriter 450 Turbo.  

Scotty Peelers

Scotty Peelers are one of those tools that seem pretty insignificant, but are oh-so-helpful! 

If you sell a lot of products that have price stickers on them, then these are a must have tool for sure.  You use the Scotty Peeler to get underneath the label, and then peel it off of the box.  Almost all of our clearance purchases, Big Lots purchases and Liquidation purchases have price stickers.  That means we are peeling LOTS of stickers!

I personally prefer the metal version.  But be careful because I can guarantee that at some point, you WILL get a Scotty Peeler cut, and it will NOT be fun.  It’s like a “right of passage” amongst sellers.

The cost is less than $10 for a set.

Self Sealing Poly Bags

Self sealing poly bags are a staple for anyone who does multi-packs or bundles on Amazon.  

We used to use shrink wrap film, or open ended poly bags and a sealer.  But these self sealing bags save us SO much time.  We just add the product to the bag, pull the strip and fold over to close.

This has cut down on time spent closing bags significantly.  There are days when we have 50+ packs to get ready.  

Also, any products where there is a part exposed needs to be covered.  So we get these in very large sizes that work for big toys and things like backpacks.  Gotta protect those things in the Amazon warehouse!

The sizes that we keep in stock are: 8×10, 9×12, 11×14 & 14×20.

The cost for a starter pack of 100 is about $25.  This will give you multiple sizes to see which ones you prefer the most.

USB Barcode Scanner

Having a USB scanner on hand for entering the items in your shipment is really helpful.  You plug the scanner into the computer, and then when you scan a barcode it acts like a keyboard.  It will enter the UPC code into the field that you have the cursor in.  It presses “enter” too, so it will move on to the next screen.

This works whether you are using a 3rd party listing service, or listing directly through Amazon.  

This is an item I recommend getting in the beginning of your business.  The cost is low and it definitely saves a lot of time!  I know that entering UPC codes doesn’t seem like a lot.  But when you are entering a lot of items at once, it can really save a significant amount of time.

The cost is around $20

Browser Extensions / Plugins

Ebates

 Using a cash back service like Ebates is a must in my book.  We are already spending so much money when purchasing inventory online, why not get some cash back at the same time?

You can see my full review of Ebates here.  

I use the Ebates browser bar / button so that I can instantly be reminded when I am making an online purchase and need to activate the cash back.  We have earned over $4,000 in cash back from Ebates.  

The cost for Ebates is nothing!  It’s FREE

Cleer Platinum

Cleer Platinum is an add on to the Chrome browser that makes comparing products super simple.  This tool adds buttons onto the pages of many major retailers so that you can easily click to pull that item up on places like Amazon / eBay.  

When you find an item on say Walmart that you want to see if it is selling on Amazon, you just click the Amazon button and it will bring up the search page on Amazon with the product already entered.  

Then, when you are on Amazon, you can easily click to search other sites.  So you can click to compare to Ebay, or check price history in Keepa or Camel Camel Camel.  

This also comes with another tool as a bonus that will show if Amazon is selling and the rank/category…Right from the search page on Amazon.  So you can quickly see which products meet your criteria, or which search result you should dig into further.

The cost is normally around $97 (one time fee).

How Many Extension

The How Many Extension is another chrome tool that makes online sourcing easier.  What this tool does is shows you how much stock the current sellers have on the product you are researching. 

Say you are trying to decide if you should pull the trigger on 50 of a game.  But there is one seller who is really low priced.  Now you can quickly see how many that seller has in stock and make an educated buying decision based on that information.  

This basically replaces the step of adding 999 to your cart to see a sellers quantity   And you can see all of the sellers quantities at once.  

The cost on this one is $8.95 monthly.

We are currently looking at quite a few new tools and services.  Things are always changing in the Amazon space, so we want to make sure we keep you up to date on the best and most efficient ways to run your business.

Amazon Brand Restrictions – What to Do?

By Jordan Malik

Unless you've been living under a rock, you know that Amazon recently emailed individual sellers telling them they couldn't sell certain brands any more. If you wanted to be approved, you had to provide real invoices from manufacturers - not retail receipts, and (in some instances) pay up to $1500 just to beconsidered.  The rumor is that Amazon did this because there were too many counterfeit products and/or sloppy sellers packaging (passing used off as new, etc.). But all (or most) sellers like you and me were affected anyway.

You probably got the "restriction" email from Amazon if you had in stock a product from a brand you were restricted from. Some sellers (like me) got no email, which (likely) means either a.) I didn't have any restricted brands in stock, or I was 'grandfathered' in to be allowed to sell it. (However, I tried listing a Lego product and Adidas product - I was restricted.) Thus, in short:

Many 3rd party sellers like you and me are restricted - without recourse - from selling products from a couple hundred brands on Amazon. Thousands of brands are notrestricted. 

Let me get the "What you should do from now on?" stuff out of the way, then further down I'll share some recommendations.

1.) What you should do from now on - Part I:  Click through and bookmark these 3 pages (3 selling experts are continuously these lists of 'known' restricted brands. This information comes from the blog owner's information, not Amazon. Instead of favoring one over the other, I'm referencing all 3 below. Note: 'Not all restrictions are created equal'. For some of the brands (e.g., Hasbro and Disney), it appears some sellers like myself were not restricted):

• The Selling Family (Jessica Larrew) list
• 888 Lots' list
• Best from The Nest (Robyn Johnson) list

2.) What you should do from now on - Part II: When in doubt, use the (free) Amazon Seller App for iPhone or Android. This will instantly tell you if you are restricted from selling a product (Note: non-Amazon scouting apps like Scoutify and/or Profit Bandit don't give you these alerts!). If you're already using a scanning app like Scoutify orProfit Bandit, keep using them - they're a lot faster. Use the Amazon app if you're in doubt or you want to double-check the item:

1. Install the Amazon Seller App on your phone/device
2. Ensure you're logged into the App using your Amazon seller credentials
3. Open the App, select 'product search' and touch the 'camera' icon. Then scan the barcode any item (or enter the item name/UPC, or hover the camera over the face of the item as Amazon can 'recognize' what you're scanning). Hint: if you're on (say) Walmart.com and you want to scan an item, pressing the camera icon will work in most cases if you hover your camera lens over the picture of the Walmart item as it appears on your screen.

For instance, I randomly looked up four items (those I had a hunch I'd be restricted from), using my Amazon Seller App, and yep, I was restricted. Screen shot is on the upper right of this page (click to enlarge). Not all restrictions are created equal'. For some of the brands (e.g., Hasbro and Disney), it appears some sellers like myself were not restricted.

Now for some recommendations:

First, sourcing via retail arbitrage or online arbitrage is NOT dead. It's just changing. There will always be opportunities sourcing thousands of other (non-restricted) brands from stores (physical or online). You just have to be more selective and strategic. Let's take heed from some trusted experts:

"Retail arbitrage is still a resounding 'yes' for us right now. Time will tell whether these latest changes will wind up being something whose effect was exaggerated or whether we’ll have a whole new set of guidelines from Amazon. The point is, stay agile! Those of you who are willing to take the news and roll with it are the ones who will rock your businesses in the end!" - Jessica Larrew, The Selling Family

"Retail arbitrage is not dead. It’s just different than it was a few days ago. And in a year or two, it’ll be totally different again. But with any challenge, comes opportunity. It’s what we do as entrepreneurs – Re-frame situations to create profitable businesses"- Duncan McPherson of SmartFBAIncome

"Don’t dwell in the negativity. It can be so easy to get sucked into the negativity online when difficult situations arise in the FBA selling world, especially on Facebook. You could easily spend (waste?) hours reading and participating in the comments on Facebook posts about how fill-in-the-blank change is going to ruin our existence as third party sellers on Amazon. Don’t fall victim to that temptation!" -Stephen Smotherman of Full-Time FBA.

[Move according to your tolerance for risk.] Risk Profiles:Extremely Risk Averse: Immediately remove all inventory that has been sourced via retail and online arbitrage, and stop sourcing any new products via Retail Arbitrage (RA)or Online Arbitrage (OA).Risk Averse: Stop sourcing all new RA / OA and begin to shift to purchasing inventory via other sourcing methods such as wholesale.Calculated Risk: Keep sourcing RA / OA, while monitoring Amazon’s changes. Keep 2 to 3 months inventory in stock at a given point in time to be able to adjust if a change comes through the pipeline. Don’t make any drastic changes to your business at this point in time. Ignore Risk: Keep sourcing RA /OA as you do today, and plan to continue these methods until retirement or you are suspended. Essentially, you’ve picked your path and will not deviate no matter what changes are made by Amazon." - Ryan Grant,Online Selling Experiment

Second: It's time for you to consider diversifying into one or more of: used books, wholesale and private label (it's never been less expensive/less risky to do so) to sell on Amazon. You have to do it the right way though. Learn the basics and more for free (or inexpensively) from my trusted partners:

(FREE) Online Book Arbitrage (you pay $6 S&H) by Peter Valley (one of the foremost experts on the topic)

(FREE) Private Label: Scott Voelker's workshops

(FREE) Private Label: Startup Bros' free workshops (live or replay)

(FREE/$) Private Label: Ryan Reger's Private Label The Easy Way Free webinars (limited run) and mentoring group.

($) Wholesale: Robyn Johnson's Wholesale Workshop (pre-recorded)

($) Wholesale: Proven Wholesale Sourcing (comes free when you buy The Proven Amazon Course)

($) Wholesale: Skip McGrath's Wholesale Buying System for Amazon or eBay

Third - Ensure you have an eBay account up and running (free tutorials here andhere) This is especially true since Christmas is coming (hey let's face it you need a backup). If you're a new eBay seller, start selling random stuff around your house (unwanted DVDs, CDs, t-shirts, broken electronics) now as you may have a 'probationary' period. The service Joelister (I can't vouch for how well it works) will copy your Amazon inventory to eBay, and when an eBay buyer buys your item on eBay, it's automatically removed from your Amazon account. This isn't to panic you into selling on eBay (Don't panic), this is a smart thing for any Amazon seller to have.

That's it for now. I'll have more info coming in an upcoming AskJordan podcast.

Stay well, stay focused!

What is Good Profit Margin for Amazon Sellers?

Today let's talk about profit margins. One of the questions that I get over and over again as I'm trying to teach people how to drop ship on Amazon, is whether or not smaller profit margins that you typically find with drop shipping and wholesale are better than the margins that you get for retail arbitrage and other ways of selling on Amazon. In order to really answer this question I really think there needs to be a huge mindset shift when it comes to understanding profit margins and what it means in a long term sustainable business.

Thrifting and Retail Arbitrage Skew Margin Expacations

If you're like me, you probably started selling on Amazon by going to different types of thrift stores, garage sales and retail stores. Typically, when you are selling products from places like that, you are used to seeing margins anywhere from 30% all the way to 300% from the items that you sell. Now, that can be absolutely awesome but it also excuse how you look at selling products on Amazon altogether.

How much margin do typical retails stores make on their products? This is a very important question to understand if you're going to really be aware of whether or not your profit margin is going to help sustain your business over the long haul. The typical retail store has a profit margin anywhere between 8% to 20% and more often than not, it's closer to the 8%. That being said, one thing that you find at the retail store, as opposed to people who sell thrift items and garage sale items, is consistency. The retail store has suppliers that they can consistently reach out to and buy product from. They never have to go out and spend hours sourcing that product. They simply have to put in purchase orders for products that they're selling within their retail store.

Consistency and Sustainability Always Trump One-Time Big Margins

All that being said, when you factor in the time it takes to source products even if you are selling a product that has a 300% margin because that one product, typically, is only going to sell once, meaning that you're not going to be able to sell it ever again because you're only able to find that product one time. The fact that it has a 300% margin diminishes in value overtime. Personally, I would prefer to have a product that sells at 10% but sells multiple times over a year period. Because it's able to sell multiple times, over the year I'm going to sell more from that product if our price is same as the other product. I'm going to sell that product much more than I would. I'm going to be able to make a profit far more than I would with the other product that I was only able to sell once at the 300% margin.

When you're thinking of profit margin, you have to think of it as how long am I going to be able to sell this product overtime? For me, this is one of the reasons why I chose drop shipping over any type of retail arbitrage, private label or online arbitrage because I want to be able to have something that can sell multiple times throughout the year.

A Quick Example...

Let me give you one more example of this concept. Say you had a product that you found for $10 that you are able to sell for $100, that is a ten times markup on that item. On the flip side, say you also found a supplier that was able to sell you a $10 item and you're only able to make $1 out of that item but you sold 10 of those a day. With the first item you made your cash right away. You were able to profit $90 in one shot, good for you. However, it would only take you ten days with product to reach the same amount of profit from the item that you sold at a ten times markup. On top of that, after those 10 days if you're still able to have your supply replenished overtime you are going to make far more profit than you would with that one item that you're going to sell at a huge markup one time.

All of these being said, I prefer having the lower profit margin but high sustainability and consistency as opposed to finding items at high margin but only able to sell once. In my opinion, it's far more preferable to sell wholesale private label or drop shipping on Amazon than it is to use the retail arbitrage and online arbitrage model.

Sure, the profit margins are very high with retail and online arbitrage or with finding items at garage sales and thrift stores, but overtime I can far surpass the amount of profit for product with wholesale or drop shipping and continue to grow my revenues and profits by stacking replenishable products on top of replenishable products overtime.

Break Out Of A Content Rut – 4 Tips For Fresh Keyword Ideas

By Jake Cain

One thing I’ve really enjoyed about Niche Site Project 3 is casually following along with some of the success stories many of you have shared on the NSP3 Facebook Group.

In particular, it’s cool to see people like Ada Wilkinson post an update about making her first dollar online ($14.80 to be exact) because I can remember that having that same feeling of excitement a few years ago.

Heck, I can remember how excited I was when my first website had a visit from a person not named Jake Cain. Just the thought that someone else was benefitting from my life-changing advice about baseball stadiums was an extremely gratifying feeling.

Today I am going to share a few tips that can be applied to nearly any site, but I’m hoping it will be particularly helpful for those of you who have moved past the initial surge of content on your site and are now wondering “what’s next?”

I’ve found that it’s easy to hit a wall where you feel like you are tapped out of ideas and don’t really know what else to say on your website that you haven’t already said.

I’ve been in that kind of rut several times, and here are a few things that have helped me move past it.

Finding Keywords For A Keyword Tool

One of the more challenging situations I found myself in was in 2015 when I was pretty much running the show for Long Tail Pro‘s marketing.

One of the things Spencer hired me to do was to breathe new life into the Long Tail Pro blog by creating fresh content that pulled in organic traffic and ultimately helped sell more software.

While I had done that kind of thing for my own niche/authority type websites, I hadn’t really done it as my “job” where I had actual expectations to meet.

It was pretty intimidating.

To make matters worse, when I started doing keyword research for the Long Tail Pro blog I was finding it very difficult to uncover low competition keywords in our market.

Up to that point, I’d never really worked on a site that was in an online technology business.

If I were to start a site in a low-tech niche like “raising chickens” the path to getting organic traffic would probably be a lot easier. I could likely do better SEO, build strong links with outreach, and find those golden nugget low competition keywords because most of the competing sites don’t really think like that.

They just love raising chickens and want to blog about it.

But when you start blogging about blogging… and internet marketing in general – the competition is stiff.

It seemed like every content/keyword idea I had featured a Google top 10 littered with results from Neil Patel, Brian Dean, ProBlogger, CopyBlogger, you name it…

What was I going to write to outrank those guys?

My idea was to shift my focus to some lower hanging fruit that I actually thought we could rank for. Here’s the question I asked to help me discover more keywords for Long Tail Pro:

1. Who Else Can Our Product Help?

The advantage I had was that Long Tail Pro already had a sizeable footprint in the online marketing landscape. Many of the big thought leaders in the space already recommended Long Tail Pro and were affiliates for the product.

So really, if someone was searching more general things about the best keyword research tools or getting more traffic to a blog – they were probably hearing about Long Tail Pro already – even if it didn’t come directly from us.

So I started thinking about it this way:

What kinds of people could benefit from Long Tail Pro but have probably never heard of someone like Pat Flynn?

My answer was very small business owners.

In my experience, many non-tech small business owners are so focused on other parts of the business that the online marketing side of things doesn’t get much time and attention. So the odds of that kind of person going to search Google for “best keyword research tools” were very low. They probably don’t even know what keyword research means exactly.

So what would they search?

Well, I started thinking more general and discovered there were low competition keywords for things like “Marketing Ideas For Insert Business/Industry Here.”

While the search volumes were pretty low, I knew that I could offer a few simple marketing ideas for that type of business – one of which would be the concept of using their blog to get people on their business website.

And oh by the way… we have a software that can help you with that.

By following the same principle, I also discovered some nice keywords around non-Wordpress website builders that are often focused on small business owners. Products like Wix, Squarespace, and Weebly who all have customers that could really use Long Tail Pro – they just didn’t know it yet.

So I discovered that people look for things like “Weebly SEO” and “Squarespace SEO” and what that really translates to is “How can I get more search engine traffic?” – which we could help with.

The end result is that LongTailPro.com did (and still does) rank well for a number of keywords just like this, which have produced a bunch of fresh leads for the business.

How You Can Use This

Really this is an exercise in creative thinking. The people who don’t even know enough to be aware of your solution – what kinds of things are they asking?

If you’ve tapped out of keywords for your bird watching site, maybe focus your attention on activities for seniors, things to do on vacation, lists of non-strenuous activities, etc.

If you can win those keywords, you have an opportunity to put bird watching on their radar as something they might enjoy, and then turn them into a reader and/or customer.

2. Siphon Celebrity Attention

When searching for keywords, being able to think like your searcher is critical. A lot of people want to emulate celebrities in one way or another, and I’ve found that understanding that idea can really open up a bunch of content ideas you may be missing.

For instance, your fitness website may never rank on page 1 for something like “get 6-pack abs” but I’d be willing to bet there are people looking to get abs just like a certain celebrity.

So they might search things like “Get abs like Channing Tatum” or “Spencers Haws’ ab workout” since both Channing and Spencer are well known for their washboard abs.

If you can do a little research and put together a nice piece on how they do it – you’ll have a much easier time ranking and picking up that traffic than you will with a more generic keyword.

This is an idea I first heard about in the context of YouTube on the DigitalMarketer blog.

They were featuring the strategy of a successful YouTube basketball channel called ILoveBasketballTV and one thing they did was create different videos for all the different player-specific searches like “how to shoot a basketball like Steph Curry.”

What you’ll find is that if people are searching these things on YouTube, they’ll also be searching them on Google.

In fact, I went a little deeper into this strategy with Ryan Spadafora on one of our coaching calls and how he could apply it to his site about being a better baseball player.

How You Can Use This

I’m guessing your niche has celebrities at some level. If so, use them to your advantage! Maybe it’s just a post here or there or maybe it becomes a whole category or series of posts on your site.

How to fix my hair like ____________

How to run fast like ______________

How give a speech like ____________

You get the idea.

3. UberSuggest

In the world of free keyword tools, Ubersuggest is probably my favorite.

In fact, it actually would be a fantastic resource for finding ideas you can use that involve celebrities or notable people in your niche.

Ubersuggest simply takes whatever you type in and then produces a list of all the auto-complete suggestions for that phrase. I’m sure you noticed that search engines do this for you as you’re typing:

Ubersuggest will take your phrase and then pull the suggestions for every letter in the alphabet, so you are usually left with hundreds of ideas that you may not find in the keyword planner:

If you run a blog about decorating for events, this kind of list would be perfect to run through a keyword tool and find out how often each one is searched.

Even if you have an idea like “how to decorate for a pool party” that doesn’t show much search volume but your gut tells you that it’s something your readers would be interested in – go for it anyway.

The most popular post on my baseball stadium website is focused on a keyword that showed “0” monthly searches at the time that I wrote it. However, I knew there had to be more people than me looking for tips on taking kids to a baseball game so I wrote it anyway.

How You Can Use This

This one is pretty straightforward – just jump over to Ubersuggest and start typing in the first part of common questions or problems in your niche.

Maybe your DIY site has a popular article on “How to build your own smoker” – go get suggestions for “How to build your own” and see what other kinds of projects people are looking for.

4. The YouTube Override

A minute ago I shared an example of where I ignored keyword search volume for a gut feeling.

So it caught my attention when I read Chris from RankXL talk about his strategy for basing blog posts off of popular YouTube videos. He calls the idea “YouTube Curation” and pretty much says that he’ll find blog post ideas by doing searches on YouTube related to his niche and then looking for videos that have a lot of views and/or a ton of upvotes – showing that people liked the video.

Chris figures that if people are finding the video on YouTube and it’s well received – then it makes sense to do a blog post on his site about that same topic. Chris says “I rarely do separate keyword research when writing articles through YouTube curation. I don’t care if it says 0 searches in the Keyword Planner” 

In other words, even if your keyword tool says that topic isn’t worth doing – let the success on YouTube override that and do it anyway.

This strategy can be especially helpful if you have a niche with a bunch of tutorials or demonstrations showing people how to do things. If 200,000 people have watched how to make their own mosquito candle, then doing a post about DIY mosquito candles is probably something you should consider – no further analysis required.

I’ve used this strategy quite a bit for one of my sites in particular, and it has produced traffic and social shares from blog posts that were relatively quick to create. I’ve also used a few of these in emails I’ve sent to my list, just because I felt confident that it was something they’d enjoy checking out.

How You Can Use This

Simple – go to YouTube and start searching for topics that your audience would search. You should start pretty general and see what kind of videos come up. From there, start checking out the videos that get the most views as well as videos that were recently published and are already picking up traction. Those could be good topics to cover on your blog.

When it comes time to create content, you can even embed the YouTube video into your post if it supplements your writing. Just work on creating an even more compelling title than the YouTube video and focus on building content that your readers will enjoy.

Wrap-Up

If you feel like you’ve said all there is to say or if you’re in a content rut of some kind on your site – I hope some of these ideas will help you find fresh keywords and start creating new content that your audience will truly enjoy!

I’m sure some of you have your own ways to bust out of a slump when it comes to content, so please feel free to share what works for you in the comments below.
