Amazon FBA Journey to.....Freedom

1. You send your products to Amazon (Merchant will ship my product straight to the Amazon warehouse in USA)
2. Amazon stores your products.
3. Customers order your products.
4. Amazon picks and packs your products.
5. Amazon ships your products. (Amazon will pay me to Payoneer bank account).

Almost 2 month back I sold my adsense website for $3k to get investment for this project.

What I have done in these two month:
​

1. Founded bestseller product in Amazon.
2. Founded Merchant in Alibaba.
3. Ordered sample product.
4. Bought Logo design (will Label my product)
5. Bought UPC bar-code
6. Created graphic for printable box and paid 30% deposit for merchant that printing can be started.
7. DIY photo studio at home, see picture to make pictures for my product. I have Nikon camera.

Now I have paid all the rest 70% payment for my product and tomorrow the goods will be shipped to Amazon warehouse. Finally
Meanwhile I will work on my product pictures and will prepare content that I will need to advertise my product.

Total investments so far - 1595 usd + time

I've spent a lot of prayers about my life and about things how to do them the right way, Yes I believe in Jesus and he gives me the meaning of life and freedom. I want to quit my 8 to 5 job and spend more time with family and want to help others - I believe it will happen very soon

Psalm 37:34 "Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart."

I will share here my experience with FBA and I hope this journey will help someone to find freedom. So if you have questions - fell free and ask here And I will try to update this thread regularly.

God will help us...

Thanks

Good luck man. Explain me one thing. How you will pay extra legal tax when product arrive to UK ? UPS will ask you to pay directly ? For example when i order to portugal i have to pay on delivery extra tax because order come outside europe. Same will happen when order arrive united kingdom.
Thank you

Best of luck with your project, and congratulation for believing in Jesus Christ!- He is just my Best Friend and Saviour. I listed my site adsense site on flippa and will be selling another amazon affiliate site earning $100 /month soon. Can someone outside USA venture into this? I have read a lot about it and am planning to do it but my location might be a barrier.

@ martinovich

How can you send product from China to US ? is thougt it is not possable to send inventory direct from China to Amazon Warehouse.

I am also from Europe and sell my products presently only in Germany ( home ) to avoid this problem

UPDATE!

I have done a lot of work these days and have also bad news.

My inventory are in Amazon warehouse and are in Amazon shop listing for two days and that's great.

The bad news is that 50 product packages are damaged by distributor, shipping carrier (UPS) so I need to create removal order for these items and probably send back to manufacturer. Products are not damaged but only carton boxes.

Im trying to file a claim and contact UPS customer support but with no success. Got this message when trying to put my Tracking code - "A problem cannot be reported for this package on UPS.com because the origin or destination for the package is not supported on UPS.com."

Contacted my local UPS and they told that I need to call UPS in USA but that cost a lot.

Anyone has experience about damaged products with UPS shipping carrier?

My product manufacturer has no experience with damaged products in the past so they also dont know how to deal with this. Manufacturer suggested me to find someone in USA and then they can send new paper boxes where to put products and then send back to Amazon.

These boxes cost $190 but profit would be approx $528.

If anyone who are in USA can help me with it and take a care about this case (contact UPS or pick, pack and send back to warehouse) I can give 100% profit from these boxes. Please let me know.

The rest items are fine and now Im working on traffic to my sales page. I have 53 page views on amazon listing but no sales - its just beginning.

At the moment using only free traffic methods and propably next week will start Adwords or Amazon ads. Will see.

If anyone can help me - let me know.

Thanks

dude shoot some backlinks to your product... Do regular on-page stuff and than buy a press release .. some social signals and you will be on 4-6 page for your keyword... Next buy some amazon gift cards and tell your friends to search for the keyword you are tryn to rank for and buy your product get as many sales as possible through this .... also create a fullfilment by merchant offer on your listing.. in inventory section click on actions near your listing and than click on add another condition. That way you do not have to ship the product to your friends.
5-10 sales and you will be on first page for your keyword.. also tell them to write reviews of the product and for the seller as well.

the traffic on amazon is enough... i have been on 100 sales a day for quite a while just buy amazon traffic for a 49k keyword

happy selling
