🧐 How Should You Choose Products to Sell?
by Seller_z3k8APxGfbQEK

As you consider expanding your Amazon business to international marketplaces, choosing the right products is crucial. This guide will help you strategically select and introduce products that resonate with customers in new markets.

Why Product Selection Matters

📍 Different markets have unique consumer preferences

📍 Cultural, climate, and demographic factors influence buying decisions

📍 Successful products in one country may not perform well in another

📍 Proper research can uncover untapped opportunities

Step 1: Analyze Your Current Best-Sellers

Start with what you know works:

  • Identify your top-performing products in your home Amazon store
  • Analyze key success factors:

→ Customer demand

→ Seasonality

→ Competitive advantage

→ Profit margins

Consider how these factors might translate to new markets:

  • Will seasonal products align with the target country's climate?
  • Do cultural differences impact product relevance?
  • How does pricing compare to local alternatives?

Step 2: Diversify Your Product Offerings

Cast a wider net to gauge market response:

  • List a variety of products beyond just your top sellers
  • Include complementary items or product variations
  • Start with lighter inventory to minimize risk

Benefits of a broader selection:

  • Quickly identify which products resonate with new customers
  • Adapt your strategy based on early performance data
  • Minimize risk by not over-committing to specific items

Step 3: Conduct Thorough Marketplace Research

Dive deep into your target marketplace:

  • Review Amazon's best-sellers in relevant categories
  • Analyze new arrivals and trending products
  • Identify gaps in product offerings or unmet customer needs

Extend your research beyond Amazon:

  • Explore local ecommerce sites and marketplaces
  • Read industry publications and market reports
  • Consider partnering with local experts or consultants

💡 Pro Tips:

  • Use Amazon tools like Market Basket Analysis to understand purchasing patterns
  • Monitor customer reviews in target markets for product improvement ideas
  • Stay flexible and be prepared to adjust your product mix based on performance

🔑 Key Considerations:

  • Compliance with local regulations and safety standards
  • Packaging and labeling requirements for each market
  • Currency fluctuations and pricing strategy
  • Shipping costs and logistics for bulky or fragile items

📑 Next Steps:

1. Create a shortlist of potential products for each target market

2. Develop a testing strategy to introduce products gradually

3. Set up tracking to monitor performance across marketplaces

4. Plan for inventory management across multiple locations

💡 Remember: Successful international expansion often requires patience and continuous learning. Be prepared to adapt your strategy as you gain insights into each new market.

Need More Help?

📌 Consult Amazon's Global Selling guides

📌 Join seller forums to connect with experienced international sellers

📌 Consider Amazon's fulfillment services to simplify logistics

By taking a thoughtful, research-driven approach to product selection, you'll be well-positioned to succeed as you expand your Amazon business internationally.

I urgently need your help
by Seller_z7wSNWwglfrjU

Hi @Spencer_Amazon

I urgently need your help/advice.

I am a new seller. First, I need to make sure my account is eligible for the Buy Box.

1. All our products are shipped by FBA.

2. Our products are reasonably priced and lower than similar competitors.

3. Our products are in new condition and in stock.

4. Our listings are of good quality.

5. Our links have added brand links and are eligible for UPC exemption.

Since May 26, all my listings are missing the Buy Box.

All my products are shipped by Amazon FBA, which meets the necessary conditions for Buy Box eligibility. How can I get the Buy Box/Featured products back?

Here are a few ASINs I'm having issues with:

B0DN64T9SG

B0F299XCZF

B0DHWZP74V

B0DHV9DLRD

B0DMP4QXM2

B0DMFDL81W

B0DNJHJQK9

B0DPHMNH77

B0DJXKT111

B0DMZVCBQ4

I'm requesting your urgent assistance.

Can I get in touch with the team responsible for this issue?

@Spencer_Amazon.

Hello Sellers,

Looking to clear excess inventory while maintaining healthy profit margins? Amazon Outlet offers Professional sellers a zero-fee opportunity to move overstock products through promotional deals. Let's explore how this program can help optimize your inventory and increase sales.

What is Amazon Outlet?

Amazon Outlet is a dedicated storefront where customers can discover discounted products across popular categories like electronics, toys, beauty items, and kitchen essentials. For sellers, it's a valuable tool to:

  • Clear overstock inventory
  • Improve cash flow
  • Reduce long-term storage fees
  • Reach bargain-hunting customers

Program Requirements

To participate in Amazon Outlet, sellers must:

  • Have a Professional selling plan
  • Maintain at least a 3.5-star customer rating
  • Offer products in new condition
  • Have eligible inventory in FBA for 90+ days
  • Ensure products have 3+ stars or no reviews
  • Keep items in stock during the promotion
  • Not have listed the same items in Outlet within 60 days

How Amazon Outlet Works

The program operates on a simple two-week promotional cycle:

  1. Find eligible products through the FBA Inventory tool recommendations
  2. Submit products for Outlet deals (processed twice weekly)
  3. If approved, your items appear in the Outlet store for 14 days
  4. Standard fulfillment and referral fees apply - no additional deal fees

Pro Tips for Outlet Success

1. Maximize Discounts

  • Remove existing pricing rules before submission
  • Combine Outlet discounts with vouchers for deeper savings
  • Example: Stack a 50% Outlet discount with a 5% voucher

2. Optimize Listings

  • Use high-quality images
  • Ensure product details are accurate and complete
  • Maintain sufficient inventory for the full promotional period

3. Monitor Performance

  • Track sell-through rates
  • Analyze customer response
  • Adjust strategy based on results

Important Considerations

  • Deal submission doesn't guarantee approval
  • Amazon may cancel deals if: • Products no longer meet value criteria • Pricing rules conflict with deal requirements • Inventory levels become insufficient

Getting Started with Amazon Outlet

  • Review your FBA inventory for eligible products
  • Check the program requirements and criteria
  • Remove any conflicting pricing rules
  • Submit your first deals
  • Monitor performance and adjust as needed

Why Choose Amazon Outlet?

  • No additional deal fees
  • Reach value-conscious customers
  • Clear aged inventory efficiently
  • Improve inventory health
  • Reduce storage costs
  • Boost cash flow

The Bottom Line

Amazon Outlet provides a cost-effective way to manage inventory while maintaining profitability. By following program guidelines and best practices, sellers can successfully clear overstock items and improve their overall business performance.

Ready to get started? Check your FBA Inventory tool today to find eligible products for Amazon Outlet deals.

Only Evri Postage Offered For Letter Not RM?
by Seller_7WttAIiaCR7Ty

Hope someone can help?

I am trying to buy Amazon RM postage for a letter size greetings card and for some reason on one particular order it is only offering Evri drop off-which would cost more than the item!!

I have sold this item before and have always been able to select 2nd Class RM but for some reason it won't let me do it today, I have tried changing the sizes/weight but it is still only offering Evri?

Dear Seller,

As a licensed payment service provider, Amazon Payments UK (APUK) Limited is subject to specific obligations in order to open and maintain Selling on Amazon accounts.

From now on you will not be able to disburse to unverified bank accounts. However, you can still disburse to a previously verified bank account associated with your seller account, and continue to list and sell on Amazon. If you have already verified all bank accounts associated with your seller account, then there is no further action required at this time.

In order to continue to disburse, please complete the following steps:

Why send that email when everything is ok? Properly confused.

Amazons fair pricing policy
by Seller_FdWKBkhV7283K

Come on Amazon what is it all about. I have books for sale that aren’t available, yet I can’t list them. You state available from (whatever date 6 months or so away) which keeps moving week by week and in reality it’s never available. Then this is acceptable, I’m sorry but it doesn’t make sense

Hello,

We have a large shipment of stock which has already been assigned barcodes/EANS, when creating the feed file I mistakenly entered the incorrect Brand Name "Wallace and Gromit", The correct Brand would be "Pokémon".

(we are not the brand owners of either of these brands, we just have permission to sell under them (Brand Approval))

These are new products so no sales, reviews or activity has been seen on the new ASIN's created. We have tried deleting the products and re-uploading with the correct data with no success. We have tried multiple times to resolve the case through the Amazon Support (Amazon Brand Registry Support) only to be told only to creating new EAN's for all the products is the only way.

I understand why Brand names are protected to stop abuse, but there are fresh ASIN's with zero activity, which are basically defunct / un-usable by anybody in the future anyway.....

Its frustrating to see when other posts on the subject show companies having their brands changed / hi-jacked, and a genuine mistake like this is unfixable..

Is there really no way to get Amazon to change the Brand allocated to this ASIN, or is it possible to even have Amazon delete the ASIN's entirely so we can re-uploaded our Feed file with the EAN'S and create new correct ones?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Regards
