3. Private Labeling

Private labeling is simply the addition of your brand’s logo or name to a product. It does not mean that you are creating a new product to be sold on Amazon. You’re researching which products are doing well on Amazon.

Once you have chosen a product to sell, you will need to find a manufacturer in your area or abroad that has the product. Establishing your order quantity when you work with a manufacturer is vital.

Most suppliers require minimum order quantities (MOQ) from customers. Depending on how many units are purchased, you may negotiate the price with your supplier. After you place your order with your supplier, you will ship your products to an Amazon fulfillment center.

These fulfillment centers are all over the United States and internationally. The centers can then pack and ship your product for you at a fixed price.

Private label selling requires little to no hands because you are doing most of the work on your computer. Once you have set up your Amazon listing, you can sell the product and start making sales.

Amazon automatically detects when customers have already placed an order for your product and ships it to them. The most amazing thing about private labeling products is that you can sell them at a higher rate while purchasing them at a discount.

Usually, profit margins are between 30% and 40%. I love private labeling because you can build your brand. Building a brand is like building an asset. Selling your brand can lead to a huge payday.

Thank you Lily,

Amazon is such a fat cash cow.

Permit me to add my latest discovery to your list - Amazon Return Pallets.

I discovered it Last week and I could not take my eyes off it but had to do a complete writeup on it. Most Amazing is the fact that folks like us outside the US can also take part in it.
Amazon is a dependable source of income

Lily, thanks for the training about Big A’s Affiliate Program and the variety of ways to use Amazon’s platform for different business niche models. I have not signed up with their affiliate program. The other business models such as publishing, fulfillment, and other ways to build a business on their platform sounds doable for some.

Years ago, I sold mainly college textbooks for college students at discount prices. That was when the fees were a lot smaller and the seller platform was free. Now, you have to pay to be seller, and they take huge chunk of the fees that made my profit margin drop. I got out because the the fees and costs ate up my profit, only worth a dollar or less. No thanks. Im glad I got out when I did.

I agree with you, Brenda. Although amazon can work well for some you need large volume sales to make a decent commission. There are other platforms where you can promote their products for free and get a commission, especially recurring commissions.

I considered publishing my pony books with Kindle but I would make so little that it just isn't worth my time.
