Manage episode 453348418 series 2798978
Sending stock into Amazon can seem daunting, but this episode breaks down the process into manageable steps. Speaker B shares essential tips on setting up an Amazon shipping plan, including how to categorize your products for preparation and the importance of providing accurate size and weight information. Listeners will learn that while they cannot choose the specific Amazon warehouse for their stock, the location ultimately has little impact on their sales. The episode also covers the logistics of shipping, including the advantages of using Amazon's own shipping service over third-party couriers. With practical advice and encouragement, this episode aims to empower entrepreneurs to navigate the FBA process with confidence.

If you've been inspired to start a podcast in 2024 then I recommend my podcast host, Captivate. They were my top pick when I started 4 years ago because of how easy it was for a complete novice to get started. I’ve stuck with them because it’s still simple, they keep adding great new features (like the ability to share ads like these!) and it’s been so reliable.
