hi and welcome back for another amazon selling video today i'm talking how to get ungated if
you've been selling on amazon and you're doing retail arbitrage you've probably seen that dreaded
red gray restricted you can't sell this product this video is all about how to get ungated and
why it's important if you don't know me my name is nikki kirk and i've been selling on amazon
doing retail arbitrage for two and a half years now i also do online arbitrage if you don't know
what any of that is basically i go to stores like target and walmart i buy stuff and then i resell
it on amazon for profit and that's how i've been making my living for the past two and a half years
it's been awesome right here from an rv through the process of doing that and sharing it with
people on my social media and teaching on my blog a lot of people have been asking for training so
i finally sat down and i wrote two trainings because i think they're really important
and they are how to get ungated both in toys the subcategory and all the big brands like
star wars lego disney mattel frozen as well as health and beauty so selling lotions sunscreen
baby diapers i sell diapers pull ups same thing right those are where most
of my profit come at any given time 60 of my inventory or more is in the health and beauty
topicals as amazon calls them categories they make massive profits it's so important
to be able to sell those but as a new seller you usually are gated
when i released my beauty and gaining two weeks ago
literally an hour after i released it someone else released one at three hundred dollars mine
are not three hundred dollars because as a new seller i know how important it is to make every
dollar stretch when i first started out i had five hundred dollars and that was it so spending three
hundred dollars on a training just was not gonna happen so i've priced mine specifically for new
sellers i'm teaching you how to do it basically holding your hand the whole way because i want you
to be successful at selling on amazon so what is a gated category or brand if you've been skating
in stores you've probably seen it a lot of the big brands like lego star wars disney mattel
pretty much all the major toy brands are gated because they don't want anyone just sign it they
don't want counterfeit so what they do is they ask for an invoice and you have to go get an
invoice from a distributor or a wholesaler or the brand itself and submit that to amazon and you can
become ungated how do you get that invoice where do we even start that's what these trainings show
you i'm going to walk you step by step how you do it i'm signing up with the distributor to placing
your order to how to submit it to amazon making sure everything matches and then once you're
ungated i'm going to tell you the tips and tricks i use to find the best products when i started
out i was gated and everything and i didn't have money to spend so i waited a long time before i
finally went through the process of ungaining and then once i did it i was kicking myself because
there was so much stuff that i could have been buying had i just took the time to do this process
so if you're not getting the hint yet it's really important to be engaged because you can sell so
much more stuff and it really gets your business going so much quicker here's the crazy thing about
selling toys you can be selling on amazon for two three four years and still not be able to
ever sell because you have to have that invoice here's an example i didn't do this on gating
process until january of this year i did it i got engaged in star wars lego melissa and doug
marvel batman superman spider-man all those i got the process going and ungated then because
the new frozen movies coming out they gated again the frozen stuff so i had to go get an invoice
i literally placed an order sunday night for my elsa frozen brand items and then on monday i got
my invoice two hours later amazon approved me and on tuesday i found these items out in the store
profits like these are why you need to be engaged all right let me show you just a few of the things
these aren't even things that i've shared in the past i have another video where i share my
profitable items so there was a nivea skincare item that i was buying for eight dollars and
it was selling for 80. but i'm going to share some things that i'm selling right now so that
you can see what i'm talking about and why you need to be ungated this is an example it's a
marvel toy it's got a ranking of 6 000 in toys so that's an amazing ranking they sell really fast
i bought it at ross for 6.99 and it's making cents profit another item in the
toy category forty thousand rank i bought this one for 6.99 also and it's making 5.80 profit
so this is a wwe item and i've already sold three today so i wanted to show you this one here's that
frozen doll i talked about this is not the one i used to get on getting this is the one i found for
6.99 and it's making 11. i found 12 of them okay let's talk beauty items i have found this one at
a few different tj maxx it costs 19.99 and it's making 15 this is a more expensive
one i don't normally spend 20 on a product but when it's selling for 46 and i'm gonna make 15
why wouldn't i buy it oh this is a great find i actually just found this yesterday and sent it in
it's a body wash i bought for 4.99 i found four of them so far i've only found them at one store but
they're making 12 on every one what other category are you gonna be making what two and a half
dollars for every dollar you spend so that was a great this happens all the time in beauty and
that's why it's so important here's another item i founded a couple different tj maxx's 7.99 it
makes 572 on every one okay so i hope that tells you a little more of why these categories are so
important i call it a step-by-step guide because it literally is step by step and if you're part
of the bolo group i'm right in there to help you i love helping people and i hope you take advantage
