Its.....When do I have to pay a customs bond and where do I purchase it? I mean if I order is small order, like under 2500 USD that including shipping- do I still need the customs bond? or does the supplier who is shipping my products to me, already paying for that in the shipping fees I pay him?

Thank you for this 😊 curious on what’s a good quantity to start with for your first order? My fear is having too much, I’m scared to order anything over 20 units. Also, is it best to have the items shipped directly to Amazon warehouse or to me first?

@roxannescott6956 2 жыл бұрын

To Amazon

@TPACasual 2 жыл бұрын

no, to you (if you are in US and shipping to Amazon in US). Especially given you are starting out. you want to make sure the units are in good quality and condition. Yes it cost slight more to then ship your units from your house to amazon but it's worth it starting out to have good quality products that will get you good ratings/reviews. Once you start to trust this supplier more you can have them/forwarder ship directly to amazon. How much starting unit depends on product type / price / competition so too many variables. But you don't want to run out of inventory ( The rank you worked hard to build goes down. ) and you need budget for advertising.

@Daltinax Жыл бұрын

@@TPACasual But this can come with cons, sometimes the supplier will not issue a refund, as if you end up wanting to cancel or return the order, the supplier will have complications returning the units back to the address to issue a refund. Unless you negotiate with them, or file a dispute, but it's not likely. In this case you need to trust the supplier enough, ask to show full in depth pre-views of the product before they're sent, how well it's packaged will indicate how well the supplier will manage your shipments. And if any product is damaged from a customer, know it's amazon's fault and that you as the seller confirm the product was shipped and handled with care from the supplier.

Hi Tatitana- What is the best to start with as a beginner on a shoestring budget when it comes to: Jungle Scout, ASM, Zoof? Also, how do you stay on top of your PPC campaigns if your budget is beyond tight? Is that something you check daily, weekly, and if you've spent your budget for the PPC campaign do you simply turn the feature off? I have so many questions about this...
