Publisher's summary

Just getting started with product research and sourcing? Stuck trying to find ideas or find that "perfect" winning product? Want to find good selling products that others are ignoring? Interested in wholesale or private label products? If you answered yes, then this book is for you.

If you are an experienced seller or are looking to do arbitrage, this book will have less value as I don't discuss sourcing by arbitrage. I don't do arbitrage, so I don't teach it. This book is written for the new or struggling seller wanting to source wholesale or private label products.

What you will learn:

Basic steps for finding top-selling products

How to generate product ideas and look for trends

How to validate demand

Tips for finding suppliers

Analyzing data to help you pick a product

It took me five months of research before I pulled the trigger on my first products to sell on Amazon. Five months and countless hours. I have pages of notes with product ideas in many different categories. Some were wholesale products, others were ideas for my own products. I had some money set aside to buy inventory. But I couldn't commit. I was looking for...not necessarily the perfect product, but, well yeah, the perfect product.

Fear of choosing "wrong" was holding me back. I knew that product selection was key to success so I needed to choose right. Another part of the problem was I had bigger ideas - I wanted to create a brand and I had some ideas as to what sorts of products I would carry. But those ideas required more capital than I was willing to invest for my first product. As a result, I put so much pressure on myself to dream big and think towards the future that I did nothing!

Great Book

This is a good book. I would have liked a little more excitement in the reader's voice, but overall it was a good listen.

Great little book!

Well researched, useful, and interesting. I've been selling online for a few years, but this book still had a lot of stuff I didn't know. The author exhausted all areas one needs to know when considering online entrepreneurship, and she put it together succinctly and completely, with an overview at the beginning, and a review of everything at the end. It was also very well narrated--it was like listening to a good friend explain everything you need to know! I really enjoyed the book, and have already started using the information. I clipped a lot of spots while listening b/c there is so much good information, good resources, and good websites all wrapped up in a very affordable price. Thank you Renae Clark--you did an awesome job.

Very informative

Downloaded this book for more information on topic. Great information other than spelling out the website links. Small flaw/goof, but overall definitely recommend to others if you’re looking for information on product sourcing.

Great overview of topics to further understand

this was a great general overview of what it takes to provide a product on FBA along with some sourcing services. The only thing I wish it included was a cheat sheet listing all the websites and sources mentioned throughout the reading that you could download from the web if you purchased this on audible.
