Episode 47: New Opportunities In Wholesale | How to Maximize Profit With Todd Snively and Chris Keef

Today we interview Todd Snively and Chris Keef, two Amazon Wholesale professionals. We discuss how the current global pandemic has affected E-commerce on Amazon, and warn against trying to capitalize on products that are currently under the microscope. We share that FBM is now a wide-open opportunity, and advise that sellers look out for products that are further down on the bestseller rank but are rising in demand. We discuss how the wholesale model can involve much less risk than private label. We give advice for those who struggle with sourcing, and point out that data is the key to finding the most profitable products. We discuss how Amazon giving scrutiny is a good sign that they can adapt and implement policy quickly during uncertain times.

We’re gonna take that investment and maybe get 3 to 4 times on it. In the wholesale model you should get 12, 14, 15? I mean, you can turn that same investment so many times because they are U.S. based suppliers. You’re only holding inventory on hand 2 and a half weeks, 3 weeks? You don’t have to float an entire container load’s worth of stuff for your inventory. So, I made that switch for those reasons among others, and it’s certainly paid off handsomely.” 16:56Socialhttps://www.instagram.com/smartestseller/https://www.buyboxer.com/
