Learn Amazon with Basil

15/09/2023

While managing a distribution business based in the United States, we frequently receive unsolicited emails and Telegram calls from individuals in Pakistan, who request excessively high discounts on our products. Despite responding professionally, some of these individuals resort to labeling us as scammers or even resort to verbal abuse. This pattern of behavior must come to an end. It's worth noting that we do not encounter such spammy interactions from any other country except Pakistan, and it becomes quite embarrassing when we need to report these incidents to our client, the distribution owner.

As a nation, we need to learn proper professionalism and how to conduct business. Recently, an individual from northern Pakistan messaged us on Telegram. After 15 minutes without a response, they began spamming us with calls, urging a quick reply. We have an automated response in place, promising to get back to anyone who emails us within the next 24 hours, and we kindly request that this timeframe be respected. While a follow-up email is perfectly acceptable, bombarding someone with calls and texts is not the kind of interaction we expect from our fellow Pakistanis.

My journey began with free VBC from Extreme Commerce, which proved to be an invaluable resource. I dedicatedly attended Sunny Ali's sessions and learned a lot from them. Despite never paying any money, Extreme Commerce by Sunny Ali helped me and my colleagues to transition into freelancers and subsequently become agency owners. As of now, we have expanded to a team of 8 and provide comprehensive Amazon Wholesale FBA + Brand Management Services.

I am acquainted with individuals who were inspired by Sunny Ali and now earn a stable seven-figure income every month. This man has transformed the lives of many. An eccentric person claims himself to be all knowing and credits only themselves for their success, a humble man always gives credit where it's due.

Hey fellas, Ramadan is here and I wanted to give something from my side which can help people. We all try to help the needy during this Holy Month and I encourage all my LinkedIn fellows to keep on doing so. However, I always wanted to add some solid value and inspire people as well so they can take charge and help themselves. For this, I will be uploading short video content this Ramadan (Till around 22 April) where I will teach basic level of Amazon for someone who wanna start. I want to keep the content short so no video will be more than 15 mins and will cover one topic per week. The topics which I will cover will be:

Week 1: How to Open an LLC and Amazon Account. (3 videos)
Week 2: How to Find and Contact Suppliers. (3 videos)
Week 3: How to use Keepa to do Product Analysis (3 videos)
Week 4: How to use Seller Central (2 videos)

This will be beginner level content with the aim of inspiring others to learn a skill, master it in some time, sell those skills or open your business and make money to help yourself, your family and those around you. I know the vision is far fetched but if just one guy wakes up and starts a business or learns a skill because of my effort, it'll definitely be worth it.

Would appreciate if you guys can share/repost so we can reach the maximum audience. 🌙

POST 4: HOW TO USE SELLERAMP CHROME EXTENSION

Follow up to post 3

In the previous post, we touched upon the Keepa Chrome Extension. This time, we will delve into the SellerAMP Chrome Extension - a crucial tool for analyzing OA/Wholesale products. Install the Chrome Extension on your browser and connect it to your Seller Central (recommended) to check if a product is gated or not.

SellerAMP provides you with following features:

1. Profitability: It calculates the ROI and Net Profit. It also gives you a breakdown of fulfillment fees, FBA fees and storage fees.

2. BSR and Monthly Sales: SellerAMP helps you in analyzing BSR and monthly sales of the products.

3. Alerts: SellerAMP helps in checking eligibility of the product and its details through the Alerts tab. It also checks if a product is Hazmat or Dangerous Goods and if it has a history of IP Complaints or not.
