Fulfillment by Amazon — you ship inventory to Amazon's warehouses, they handle storage, picking, packing, and shipping. You pay fulfillment fees per unit. Best for products with strong demand and healthy margins after Amazon fees.
Referral fee (6-15% per sale), FBA fulfillment fee ($3-7+ per unit), storage fees ($0.75-$2.40/cubic foot/month), and optional advertising. Total fees often consume 25-40% of revenue. Always use FBA calculators before launching.
Use Jungle Scout or Helium 10 to analyze: monthly sales volume (need at least 300/month), competition level, review count of top sellers, and product weight (heavier = higher shipping costs). Look for products with 30%+ gross margins.
