Amazon FBA
One of Jeff Bezos’s brainchild in early 2015 was the “Fulfilled-By-Amazon” service and it has been the “one ring too rule them all” (Lord of Rings fans?;)) business models that we at FosterFBA just love. This is what sets apart a successful new amazon seller from an amateur.
How It Works In A Nutshell
- You work out a deal with a supplier (local or overseas) that will manufacture your product for you
- If working with local manufacturers, you create a shipment inside Amazon Seller Central, and email your labels to your manufacturer to put on your product. The manufacturer will send your inventory to the assigned Amazon FBA warehouses
- If working with overseas manufacturers, search & hire a good Freight Forwarder to arrange everything for you for a small fee (no headaches than if you tried to intervene)
- Amazon receives your product at one or multiple of their warehouses and updates your inventory
- Customer finds and purchases your product(s) on amazon.com
- Upon purchase, Amazon finds your product within its warehouses, packages it up, and sends it to the buyer all on your behalf!
- If the customer has any questions on the product, Amazon’s customer service team makes itself available to the customer on your behalf!
