Focus on Sourcing

Getting a good deal and cultivating a good relationship with a supplier is extremely important. Dig deep! Don’t just rely on Alibaba or Aliexpress to find a great supplier to source your product. If you can connect and build a relationship with a supplier that you can trust - that is HUGE! So get out there and network, be a good customer for these suppliers and if you get to the point where they can’t help you with a particular product, see if they can connect you with someone who can. If you’ve built a mutual trust and great communication with said supplier you will go far. To hear Scott expand on this further, make sure to catch this episode of The Amazing Seller!

Don’t forget to Optimize!

An important step you can take to drive traffic and build your business is to go back through all your product listings, Facebook Ads, and even your own website to double check for optimization. You want to make sure that you take full advantage of tools like "Splitly" that can help you hone in on your Amazon listings and optimize it for improved results.
