1 product research 

Successful Amazon sellers start with product research considered the most Important part of the whole process. They don't just guess if a certain product will be successful if they make a calculated decision based on accurate data with Amazon. It's possible to reverse engineer the history of each product and niche which reveals key indicators and determines whether a product or niche is worth pursuing.

2. private label your product 

The best way to start selling an already successful product is to create a copy of the product with slight improvements and private label it if possible. Buy the product you want to improve look at it try it inspect it use it think about what you could do better?,  maybe try to improve the design or decrease dimensions it's almost always possible to make a slight improvement on a product that's already in the market at a minimum. Create a custom logo that your supplier will put on your private label product let's estimate. You're going to need one week for this in the meantime you need to start looking for a supplier.

3.Finding a Supplier 

There are a number of options for finding a supplier, but most sellers end up with alibaba.com which is the biggest online factory marketplace in China. You can find a product you want to be manufactured via texts on Alibaba. You need to get in touch with at least 10 different suppliers and then shortlist them based on their willingness to communicate and responsiveness. Ask them about the cost of production and the possibility of making necessary adjustments for your private label product. You should also ask each supplier to provide samples testing the product you want to sell is crucial for making sure the quality design functionality packaging etc etc are up to your standards and expectations. On average it takes about three to four weeks to find a few suppliers contact them receive samples and then decide on the one you want to do business with cart for creating an Amazon seller central account technically.

4. Ship product to FBA Warehouse

The next step you want to take is to ship your product from the suppliers factory to the designated Amazon FBA warehouse. Where Amazon's gonna pick it up and deliver it to your customers. But first you need to figure out the physical address of that warehouse, to do so you must first sign up with Amazon seller central. Seller central is where you'll run your Amazon business it's where you track sales inventory shipments etcetera. It usually takes about two to three days. Once you've signed up with it and created a shipment you'll have a physical address of the warehouse.
    Now it's time to think about shipping your product from the suppliers factory to Amazon. Shipping your product to Amazon is quite easy you can either ask your supplier to quote you for arranging everything or you can take more control.

5. Launching Product 

Once your product gets delivered to the Amazon warehouse, you can finally start selling it. Most of the time you have some competition only to beat in order to sell enough products to make a reasonable profit.
 Amazon works kind of like Google if you want to buy something and you search it on Amazon, it's gonna show you a page that has a list of products that match your query in most cases the first product on the list has the highest chance of being sold the second product has slightly less and so on number 20 on the list has almost no chance you want your product to be number one or at least in the top five let's figure out how to achieve that Amazon's algorithm consists of three parts your listing quality number of sales during the last few weeks and number of reviews let's talk about your product listing first to make it search friendly you need to optimize your title and description using the keywords people are going to use to find your product next we need sales well how does one get a lot of sales at the very beginning there are a few tactics the one that almost always works is to create a huge discount about 50% and then promote your product with this discount once your product receives its first kick you won't need that discount anymore and you can start selling it for a regular price another tactic is to set up an Amazon sponsored ads pay-per-click campaign that allows you to put your product on the top of the search results and each time someone clicks on it you'll pay Amazon a small fee usually about $0.50 once your product organically reaches the top five of the search results you can turn off the ads finally we need reviews the most efficient technique for getting reviews is asking your customers to leave them
Amazon allows you to contact your customer so successful sellers use this opportunity to write some compelling copy and persuade their new customers to leave a review
