James Greaney here from internetbizuni.com and in today's video I'll be explaining
to you exactly why Amazon FBA is no longer than gold buying phones but it's
still being sold out and what explain to you exactly why it's so much harder to
make money on Amazon in 2019 than it was in the past and exactly what you can do
to turn the odds in your favor and make more money selling your own by the label
products it's funny that today you still hear people talking about Amazon FBA
selling the Amazon FBA dream as a gold mine and as an easy opportunity and as
business on its own and that's just not the case
you know Amazon is only a part of your business if you're starting to sell your
own brand of products Amazon is only going to be a part of your business if
you look at Amazon as your entire business you're gonna be in big trouble
in 2090 and it definitely should only be treated as parrot about your business so
now you're probably wondering why is that the case
why is Amazon only part of your business why can it not be your entire business
and first reason is your business is so vulnerable if you're only selling your
products on Amazon if Amazon is literally your entire business your
business is vulnerable and Amazon continues to grow and as Amazon
continues to grow more and more competition comes in place and yes there
is more buyers both for the top spot on Amazon they've got very competitive so
when you're competing to get your products out in front of their customers
you're going to have to compete with a lot more people so if you plan on using
Amazon PPC this has gotten more expensive if you plan on getting your
product ranked which in most if you're going to sell your products organically
on Amazon and not be paying for every sale that you're making using PPC then
this is more competitive this is harder to do in 2019 compared to it was in the
past so I really wanted to get that cleared off straightaway in this video
because you know speaking with new sellers and watch and some of the videos
out there it just makes Amazon FBA look really
and makes it local you know like a blog in the past but Amazon has changed and
2019 Amazon is a lot different than 2013 ends up when I first started selling out
and I just wanted to be clear with you that when you start sourcing your
product you get your product source from China you know your work is only
beginning speaking with people and watching videos they make this seem like
this exists like this is the Herot of past that it's just getting a product
source getting it sent into Amazon once it goes into Amazon you're playing
Zealand that's not the case that's when the real work starts so if you are
certain your own branded products in 2019 make sure that you're aware of that
make sure that you're prepared for the hard work that is involved once your
product hits a bazaar that's when the real work starts but now I don't want
this to be only a doom and gloom video still a lot of opportunity in e-commerce
in starting your own brand but remember Amazon is only a part of
your brand with all that said I'm gonna jump in and give you a few different
tips I'm gonna explain it to you in the most simple way possible as I go through
my day to day and simply explain how I see Amazon and just so that you can take
my perspective our board and you know hopefully it will help you if you are
start now if you don't know what to expect with Amazon I'm just gonna break
it down as simply as possible for you in today's video and give you some tips so
that you can increase your sales and have a slight advantage over your
competitors who might know what I'm gonna teach you in this video
so behind me is South Asia Pacific here in one Resul West London so that I give
you this example here because it just be easier to explain I see a bomb very
similar to the way that I do shop ephedra it had different sellers inside
but I said a different product to a wide range of customers customers come from
everywhere from all different angles I didn't only warn up five six different
entrances to this shopping center numbers are the same
everywhere hold the internet just comment - I'm going to either green and
have a look
warning for a specific cut therapy though after specific product that we
wanted until the fight are they mourning for the heart or else you know they call
weed looking for one product and it's not always the product that they come
out with or the amount with extra Colin said to be able to one bother come out
with the bag contained in authority at the exact same time and that's
they launched by opponents you know it's free to list your products on anybody
all right in itself they admit him but it's reading lists of ballots on Amazon
so imagine if you could have stalled inside panty chocolate Center and it'd
be free to set up the stall and we'll only pay the penalty it could be more
greener that's where you'd be selling your products as well that's what Amazon
is so you must be seven new products on Amazon port Amazon and he needs to grow
in size from being one time like this smart architect but I mean into the big
mega super store that it is today selling all the types of products you
know every corner of the world by MacArthur you grow into that that also
leads to more shuttle more shoppers more customers as well as that it also leads
to more sellers so the most ever for her the more partition or piece to your
father so although more customers will be coming in the door into the shop
attend a vanilla brown buy the product there's also going to be more shops
inside to serve you're
sellers inside Amazon so what I'm going to do is quickly explain to you how you
can depreciate yourself or you can set yourself apart so that as competition
continues to increase on as it rises Amazon continues to get more
customers you will be able to stay here subscribe continue to build your
business while I sell an arm the biggest market in the world I'm just in terrible
child one thing that we noticed entirely fair is that people don't go into
Starbucks solely for the topic people go into Starbucks or a wide range of things
one of them together from casinos everyone from me he's working away on
computer and all these targets or companies who were adaptable to change
with time seeing this as an opportunity to target of this type of Kozma but they
wouldn't have the business they have space they were just a regular coffee
shop but wasn't set up in a way that entice people can get work done sit
there for hours on end do what they need to do then Starbucks wouldn't have the
business they have today and that the key takeaway with that is that bar
before dr. Bach right Starbucks will continue to grow
like Amazon they adapt customers me that's what we continue to do seven okay
so let to say that your business will be data we've changed your product to meet
what your customer is looking for but they're not already in service as I say
you've done that what next well it's just as important that your
product can be found when customers or Amazon as it is that your product is
great and Aquinas but again take for this example we look at the shopping
center finding loads of different shots but the ones that stand out the one that
first has arrived the big shots are going to get most of the attention
there's a lot of smart up in here that no one holds into a very few people go
into and that is why your position on Amazon where you show up when customers
come to Amazon looking for product is just as important as having great power
to spare to you because no matter how great our party's customers can find it
when they come to Amazon then and vamp isn't serving the purpose that you need
it to sort of for you which is to bring you new customers the third way that I
want to give you for increasing your sales and getting ahead of your
competition he's possibly the best layer that's why I've left it to laughs don't
worry I'll recap the tree leaves in just a moment but the third way is to drive
your own traffic to have control of your own trash so again we're out here in the
street the disease roles of people some of them from an easel shopping center
and some of the mark and stray five and that's exactly how it is our life is
people are I knew to speak for instance people all
over the interest that don't know how the products you get them aware of your
products you have
into Europe buy your product straight away from Amazon or if you want you can
send them directly to your home website purchase to your economy and that's
exactly how I feel so now just on my way back to the house
and I'll recap the three different things that you can do to continue to
increase your sales on Amazon despite the increasing competition in 2019 okay
so I'm back inside now and I'm just quickly going to give you the three
different things that you should focus on if you want to build a business on
Amazon in 2019 that has healthy profit margins and that is definitely the route
that you should be going when starting your Amazon business you should be
making sure that there is a healthy profit margin after you have everything
paid for after you of the fees paid for after you of your product paid for after
you have your product imported you should make sure that you still have a
healthy profit margin when your product sells on Amazon okay so tip number one
is to make sure that your product is unique think about it if there is five
different shots in a row they're all selling the exact same thing there's
only one shot that's going to succeed and that's the shop that sells at the
lowest price and even at this that shop might not succeed for long because
they're gonna be under so much pressure that they might be making enough of a
profit to keep going so that is why you have to make sure that your product
stands out whatever product it is that you're selling whatever brand it is that
you're selling you have to make sure that it is unique and different from
your competitors you hear so many people talking about just copying the exact
same products that's out there and that simply doesn't work in 2019 there's too
many people doing that and they're not succeeding on Amazon so do like
Starbucks on this one and constantly be change and constantly be improving your
product so the product that you've stacked with isn't necessarily gonna be
the exact same product that you're still selling in two or three years time be
constantly looking for ways to improve your product and your business as you
move forward and Starbucks really does do that perfectly like they start it off
just like an ordinary coffee shop like anyone else but as times have changed
they've adapted they've built their coffee shops to be more encouraging for
people to come in and actually sit there for the day do work and this is their
big competitive advantage over their competition so do like Starbucks be
different and constantly be innovating and improving your product as you go
along tip number two is to get your product ranked as soon as possible and
what I mean by ranked is get it out onto page one of Amazon for some search terms
related to your product again you'll want to do a lot of research and find
out the most common used search terms for your product you'll want to make
sure that your product is showing up for these search terms and then you will
want to make sure that your product is out on page one for these search terms
and the best way to do this brings me on to point number three is to have your
own audience to send your own audience over to Amazon to purchase your product
as soon as it's released this will give Amazon data that it needs to push your
product on to page number one because basically what Amazon wants out on page
number one is what people are buying when they type in this search term so
people go to Amazon search for the search term for your product go ahead
purchase your product then this is going to move your product up in Amazon's
rankings they're going to want to show this to more and more customers because
they know that more and more customers will purchase your product when they see
it on page one and that is what it's all about it's about sending the traffic
getting the sales on Amazon to push your product up onto page want then once
you're on page one you can benefit from organic sales on Amazon but if you
haven't put in any effort into getting your product ranked if you've done poor
keyword research if you just haven't sent any traffic over to Amazon if
you're just sitting there relying on Amazon PPC to bring you in sales then
your business isn't going to be profitable long term on Amazon for the
simple fact the cost of PPC is constantly rising and again you have to
have your own audience to build the brand that you want to build like you
don't want to build a brand that's just solely based on Amazon and you're
constantly always too handin on Amazon to bring you sales you
want a brand that you can sell on your own website you could sell on various
different websites across the internet and you can send the traffic that you
have built from the audience that you have built anytime you want to any
different location and this is why so many people don't teach about this they
simply just focus too much on the Amazon side of things but in 2019 you really
have to put in the effort to build an audience if you want to build a
long-term profitable brand of products so I just really wanted to bring you
this video to let you know that Amazon is a change place there still is
opportunities but you have to put in the work to make a profitable brand of
products on Amazon in 2019 it takes a lot of work to make it happen you have
to make the right decisions and just in saying that the unique private labor
