You’re here because you’re ready to stop overthinking and finally start selling on Amazon. This free guide will walk you through your first major decision: what to sell — and how to do it without wasting money or time.
Ask yourself:
- Is it lightweight and easy to ship? (under 2 lbs)
- Is it unbranded or generic enough that I can sell it under my own label?
- Does it have consistent demand? (Check Amazon reviews, BSR under 100k)
- Can I buy it for 3-4x cheaper than it sells for?
- Does it solve a simple problem or serve a common routine?
If it checks at least 3/5 of these, it’s worth exploring further.
- Home & Kitchen: Think drawer organizers, silicone baking mats, or storage hacks
- Beauty Accessories: Sponges, makeup puffs, headbands, simple brushes
- Office Supplies: Sticky notes, desktop organizers, cable holders
These categories are popular, don’t require certifications, and are beginner-safe.
✔️ Instead: Research using Amazon's data first (like BSR, review count, etc.)
✔️ Instead: Look for what people are already buying repeatedly
✔️ Instead: Start small. Learn fast. Your first product is your classroom.
