Amazon Selling Strategy: Brandock’s Path to $9K/Month Profit with FBA Wholesale
Three and a half years ago, with about $16,000, Branock, an Amazon Automation Agency, embarked on a journey that today generates between $7,000 to $9,000 in monthly profits. While this may sound unbelievable, it’s real—and it’s simpler than you think.
Here’s a bit about us (so you know we’re not just another ‘guru’ selling dreams with no real experience):
We began our Amazon business back in 2018. However, our experience spans over a decade in digital marketing, starting in 2013.
Over the past 7 years, we have started and run 5 of our own brands on Amazon, 2 of which have been sold to new owners. We’ve proudly served over 1,000 clients for private labeling (PL), wholesale, and design services, with a team of 35+ members. Together, we’ve collectively sold over $30M worth of products on Amazon.
Today, we’re here to share how we replicated this success, generating $7,000-$9,000 every month through one of our Amazon seller accounts, excluding client/partner accounts. This is a strategy anyone can replicate, no matter the size of your starting budget.
What We Did: A Proven Amazon Selling Strategy
Our strategy isn’t about reinventing the wheel; it’s a tested model that can be repeated. It’s important to note that it’s not Amazon Private Label or any other high-risk approach that demands a $20k+ investment upfront.
We took a calculated risk with Amazon FBA Wholesale and today we’re sharing the ins and outs of our approach.
Amazon Selling Strategy: The Basics of FBA Wholesale
At its core, Amazon FBA Wholesale is about:
- Finding profitable wholesale products on Amazon.
- Researching the brands behind them.
- Reaching out to the brands and forming wholesale partnerships.
- Ordering inventory and shipping it to Amazon.
- Managing your Amazon listing to maximize sales.
- Planning and reordering inventory.
- Rinse and repeat!
This simple, scalable model has been our blueprint to success.
3 Key Elements to a Successful Amazon Selling Strategy
- Choosing the Right Products and Brands
- Building Real Relationships with Suppliers
- Proactively Managing Cash Flow
Let’s explore each of these strategies in more detail.
How to Choose the Right Products for Amazon FBA
To grow effectively, the brand needed a more disciplined approach to both content and advertising. Specifically, Aerobe needed:
- The Ideal Price Point: Aim for products priced over $25, ideally $100+. This helps maintain healthy profit margins.
- Amazon Fees: Ensure the FBA + referral fees don’t exceed 30% of the selling price to keep your margins intact.
In a saturated marketplace, Aerobe needed expert guidance and data-backed PPC management to unlock meaningful results.
How to Secure a YES from Brands
The right first impression is everything. A professional website, solid product catalog, and official email address are essential to show you mean business.
Here is an example of an email inquiry for a retail account:
Cash Flow Management
The simplest rule: Never let your cash sit idle. Amazon provides clear timelines for cash releases, so planning inventory reorders based on cash flow is key.
Amazon Wholesale Maths: Understanding Your Business Numbers
Amazon Wholesale Math is straightforward:
- Product cost: $50/unit
