“You have to look at products that are worth your while and whether you are protected from a pricing standpoint. You don't want to go through all the effort, and then find out that you make zero margins on it.” -Andy Heck
Alpin Haus President, Andy Heck started out as a retailer before eventually diving into the online side of the business. As he learned the ins and outs of Amazon selling, he was also able to build an adaptable and efficient system to stay on top of the game. In this episode, Nick and Andy reveal the secret formula for a successful Amazon career as a retailer. Stay tuned to learn more about the do’s and dont’s, best practices, and important things to remember when choosing what products to sell, managing your staff, selecting a suitable shipping method, protecting your pricing margin, considering pay-per-click campaigns, and preparing for unexpected events and peak seasons.
