With the increasing popularity of online stores, now is the best time to seize the opportunity of starting your own online store. In 2016, nearly 12% of total retail sales came from online stores, and the number increases every year.

A few platforms emerged as the candidates that will become the front runners of the new way of selling goods, and those were Amazon FBA, ClickFunnels, and LeadPages.

What is Amazon FBA?

Many people are not familiar and ask themselves “What is Amazon FBA?” Amazon FBA is a program that makes it possible for people to sell their goods online. What you sell, Amazon FBA will ship and distribute to those who wish to buy your product. This is the only difference between Amazon’s Merchant-Fulfilled and Amazon’s FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) program.

If you have your own warehouse and employees, then Amazon’s Merchant-Fulfilled option may be the better option for you. However, if you don’t have any employees and warehouses, then you can sign up for FBA, ship everything to Amazon’s fulfillment centers, and they will ship everything to your buyers.

How Do You Find Products to Sell via Amazon FBA?

There are five different sourcing methods you can use in order to find products to sell on Amazon. Those sourcing methods include:

  • Retail arbitrage
  • Online arbitrage
  • Liquidation
  • Wholesale
  • Private Label
