Has this ever happened to you? You go sourcing for inventory to sell on Amazon and find some good stuff… I mean, the prices are good, the sales rank is good, but once you finally get these items to Amazon, the prices for many have either tanked, or they just never sell. You check in
Our Favorite Amazon FBA Sourcing App – Scoutify
Like we said in our last blog post, there seems to be a huge debate among Amazon FBA sellers about whether to use the Amazon Seller app for sourcing inventory or whether to pay for a third-party scanning app. Check out the comments on that post to see that some people feel pretty strongly
Overcoming Your Fear of Going Deep on Inventory Items

Today I want to share
To Share or Not to Share a BOLO
In our last blog post, we talked about how to capitalize on a BOLO. We shared many ideas of how to make the most out of both your time and your money when it comes to a BOLO. Note: In today’s blog, we’ll be discussing retail store BOLOs (not garage sale, thrift store, or other
How to Capitalize on a BOLO (Be On the Lookout)
Last week we talked about how to have a highly profitable Q4, and this week we’ll talk about another timely topic: how to capitalize on a BOLO. What is a BOLO? It’s an acronym for “Be On the Look Out” and generally refers to a product that a reseller should be looking for to buy
