Pre-Requisites:
- I've completed the Amazon 101 Course.
- I've opened a Professional Amazon Seller Account.
- I've subscribed to a Paid subscription of Keepa.
The Right Mindset:
Realize this business (like everything else worthwhile) takes work, and commitment. This path is a tested and proven system, and it takes work (especially in the beginning) to get started. Commit a specific amount of time each week to work this plan. You can move at your own pace. But you must set a pace, and stick to it.
- Match 5-10 source items with ASINs
- Practice using Keepa on 3-5 ASINs that have matching sources
- Practice using Amazon’s free revenue calculator
- Choose one of the items that I have been practicing with or a new item to send to Amazon’s FBA Warehouses
- Post my accomplishment in my Kickstart Facebook Group or the MST Facebook Group
Milestone Three – Shipping
Your Objective:
Ship my first item to Amazon’s FBA warehouses and make it available for sale.
Pre-Requisites:
- I've found an item to sell that matches an existing ASIN that I am approved for.
The Right Mindset:
Doing the Work - Getting that first shipment in can be a challenge. Hang in there and get it done.
- Purchase at least 1 unit (not more that 3 units) of the item I have chosen to send to Amazon
- Create a shipping plan in Seller Central that shows which items you will be sending to Amazon’s FBA warehouses
- Prep and label the item that was purchased in the previous task
- Purchase and print shipping labels from Seller Central
- Drop the completed shipment off to UPS and get a receipt
- Post my accomplishment in my Kickstart Facebook Group or the MST Facebook Group
Milestone Four – Organization
Your Objective:
Use what I have learned so far to build a consistent, predictable, foundational book of business that will turn into a profit center for me as I continue to consistently work it.
Pre-Requisites:
- You must be a PAC student to complete this milestone.
The Right Mindset:
It’s expected to make mistakes! Mastering the process and making mistakes is a necessary part of the learning process. Keep moving forward. Some students get a sale on their first shipment, and some do not. If you do not get a sale on your first listing. That’s OK. The goal is to master the process. Keep going!
