Choose the products you want to sell on Amazon


At the very beginning, you should think about what products you want to put up for sale. Remember that Amazon is a platform that guarantees access to several thousand products, so what you decide to sell must be a competitive commodity.

Check the competition
Before you start selling on Amazon, check what trends among customers are most prominent. Using special tools, you will find out what has a chance of selling best and what the price of the products should be in order to compete in the market. Ideally, it should be an item that is already available but there is little competition.

Check the suppliers
Once you’ve figured out what products are most popular with Amazon users, it’s time to find a source to supply them. Of course, this applies if you intend to sell items that you don’t make yourself. In that case, search for several suppliers and choose the one that will offer the highest quality at the best possible price.
