Amazon FBA - A Beginner’s Guide to Selling on Amazon, Launch Private Label Products, and Earn Passive Income While You Sleep

By Adidas Wilson

FBA is an acronym for Fulfilled by Amazon. When you get into the Amazon FBA program, all the hard work is done by Amazon. How it works: You source products and send them to Amazon. They, in turn, store the products in their warehouses. The products are inventoried then sorted. If an item is damaged in the warehouse, Amazon will pay you the full price. When a buyer orders your product on Amazon, the transaction will be handled by Amazon (the process is automated). Amazon packs the item and ships it to your customer. They also follow up after the product has been delivered to make sure the customer is satisfied.

Amazon is a big name in the online retail industry. It is the largest in the UK, USA, and many parts of Europe. While many people have heard of it, they may not know that every time they make a purchase, they are most likely getting the item from a third-party merchant using the Amazon FBA service.

Amazon picks the order then delivers it to you. Amazon FBA is also responsible for customer service, mostly.
