I Tried Amazon FBA (Complete Beginner) – My Results – Amazon FBA For Beginners
If you have ever considered starting an online business or exploring the world of e-commerce, you’ve probably come across Amazon FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon). As a complete beginner myself, I recently decided to give it a try and see if it lives up to the hype. In this article, I will share my experiences and results as a beginner in Amazon FBA.
First things first, what is Amazon FBA? Simply put, it is a program offered by Amazon that allows sellers to store their products in Amazon’s fulfillment centers. Amazon takes care of storage, packaging, and shipping while also providing customer service, leaving the sellers to focus on sourcing and marketing their products.
Setting up an Amazon FBA business requires a few steps. I started by creating an Amazon seller account and registering for the FBA program. Then, I explored various products and settled on a niche that aligned with my interests and had market demand. Researching a product niche is crucial, as it helps identify potential competition and understand the potential profit margins. I used various online tools and resources to conduct thorough market research and eventually selected my first product to sell.
Once I had selected my product, I sourced it from a manufacturer in China. Communication and negotiation with suppliers can be daunting, especially for a beginner, but I was able to find a reliable supplier at a reasonable price. After confirming the order, I arranged for the products to be shipped to Amazon’s fulfillment centers.
The next step was creating an optimized listing for my product. This involves writing an attractive product description, selecting relevant keywords, and providing high-quality images. Amazon’s algorithm uses these details to determine product visibility and rank in search results, so it is crucial to invest time and effort into optimizing your listings.
After launching my product on Amazon, I focused on marketing and promoting it. I utilized social media platforms, such as Instagram and Facebook, to drive traffic to my Amazon listing. I also optimized my product listing through Amazon PPC (Pay-Per-Click) advertising, which allows sellers to bid on keywords to increase visibility and drive sales.
So, what were my results as a complete beginner in Amazon FBA? I must admit, it wasn’t an overnight success story. It took time and effort to gain traction and generate consistent sales. However, with patience, persistence, and continuous improvement, I gradually started seeing positive results. Over time, my product gained organic visibility, and sales began to pick up.
In terms of profitability, Amazon FBA can be quite lucrative. As a beginner, I was able to cover my initial investment and generate a modest profit. However, it is important to note that success in Amazon FBA requires ongoing effort, as competition is fierce, and market trends are constantly changing. Continuous product research, inventory management, and monitoring customer reviews are all essential for long-term success.
In conclusion, my journey as a beginner in Amazon FBA has been both challenging and rewarding. Starting an online business from scratch is never easy, but Amazon FBA provides a platform that simplifies many aspects of running an e-commerce business. With dedication, research, and perseverance, it is possible to succeed and generate income through Amazon FBA. However, it is crucial to approach it with realistic expectations and a willingness to learn and adapt along the way.

There are hundreds of product that are eligible to sell on Amazon. There is a close out market of product available that only one seller has. You can controll the market by purchasing all and selling them below what they are selling on Amazon for and making a huge margin. Contact me diretly and I'll send you what is available!
Hi mate, can you do a video on how you sourced your wholesalers, for the items you got for this video. I think many would love to see this video.
Awesome video. Just a quick question. Let's say I want to start my own brand of kitchen knives. I order them from a manufacturer (china). But I want to differentiate myself. Do I tell the manufacturer to modify the item, or do I just create my own label and packaging and sell that?
I was looking into doing amazon. Ive used a quick calculator and to sell a dyson for £300 the amazon costs are £80 ? ? ? ? tell me im doing something wrong

Awesome video, really appreciate it. I had a quick question tho. How do you check how many of a particular product sold on amazon in a particular time frame? Thanks
What’s the storage and fee cost from Amazon ?
Hi mate. Thanks for sharing your experience.. I'm trying to open FBA account and amazon keeps rejecting my application asking me to update my bank account details.
My question is it because they don't accept current account with bebit card and what kind of account they accept if that's the case.
Thanks
Just started sending in our own branded goods to Amazon FBA, so will see how it goes! I like the idea of the protection that the Amazon Trademark Registry gives however so no one can copy or piggyback similar items without us being able to take legal or official actions under the laws of infringement/passing off, also important to note we registered designs for our goods to reinforce the protecton, but we sell in a specialised market of goods, now moving into clothing
