In this podcast, Kamel, an Amazon seller, shares his journey along with valuable insights on product selection and marketing strategies. Initially facing challenges with private labeling, he found success by collaborating with the Passion Product team. Their approach focuses on finding products with low competition on Amazon, particularly consumable items and those linked to personal interests or popular trends. Kamel highlights the significance of strategic marketing techniques, such as PPC campaigns and organic engagement on social media platforms like TikTok, while aiming for a profit margin of at least 25%. He recommends that new sellers start with a budget between $2,000 and $5,000, or even less by utilizing innovative funding options like Kickstarter, and stresses the importance of inventory management to avoid incurring storage fees.
