Paul sold 15k in 10 weeks with a 9-5
In August, Paul did about $900 in sales on amazon canada for the whole month. Ten weeks later he had a $1,195 day. In his words, he crushed that whole month in a single day. Those are sales, not profit, and they’re Paul’s results, not typical and not a promise about yours. What got my attention is that he did it with a full time job, and he’s keeping it. So I sat down with him for my first interview on the channel and asked him how. Here’s what I want you to take from it. He didn’t source in 30 minute pockets. He set his weekends aside and put in three or four hours in a row, because that’s when you get into the flow of what to look for and what to skip. He sent me a lot of products to check before he bought them. The game changer, in his words, was seeing what I thought of each one next to what he thought. That’s what taught him what a good buy looks like. He got burned by gating early. Four or five products showed up at his house and he couldn’t list them, a few hundred dollars just sitting there. About six weeks later they all ungated, and it’s all been selling. It’s what I tell everyone early on: the beginning is rough, and it gets easier as your account sells. And if you’re three or four weeks in and thinking about quitting, his advice is to keep going. The products are out there. He sells the most random stuff. If it sells and the profit is there, he buys it, and size and weight are about the only things that make him pass. Watch it here: https://youtu.be/2GdOXxNBaGU Then tell me in the comments: if you’re selling around a 9 to 5, when do you get your sourcing done? A few hours in a row, or 30 minutes here and there? Paul was in my coaching group. If you want the kind of help he had, book a call with me here: https://canadafbacoaching.com/coaching Anthony

I do my sourcing on the weekends in three- or four-hour sessions. The intensive concentration required for sourcing is much too difficult to summon after a full day's work. I reserve weeknights for less cognitively demanding tasks (e.g., updating my buy and order pipeline spreadsheets, purchasing inventory, adjusting my repricer's min and max values, assessing whether to restock after test buys).
I built the SellerAmp I wanted (7 days free)
Hey guys, A lot of you know I've been building CanFlip on the side. The new version just went live and I honestly think it's ready to replace SellerAmp for most of you. www.canflip.ca You open any product on Amazon and CanFlip shows you the fees, your profit, ROI, max cost, sales rank, the Buy Box, and whether you're even allowed to sell it. Hazmat and meltable get flagged too. That's basically what most of us pay SellerAmp for. Where it goes further is Keepa. Every row in Product Finder gets colored based on your own account: green you can sell, yellow needs approval, red you can't. No more checking ASINs one at a time in Seller Central. And when it finds brands you're gated on, it can apply for approval on all of them for you. A few other things I use every day: - right click a product on a retailer and it finds the Amazon match and tells you if there's profit - track a seller's storefront and see what they add every day - paste a list of ASINs and check them all at once The big change with Pro is that the Keepa data is included. No API key, no API plan, no waiting on tokens. It's $39.99 a month CAD plus tax, or $399 for the year, and the first 7 days are free. SellerAmp's main plan is $29.95 USD, so it's about the same once you convert, and this one is built for Amazon.ca first & there's way more. www.canflip.ca <--- Find your 7-day free trial here. If you already have CanFlip, nothing changes on your plan. There's a purple Try Pro button in the extension if you want to test it. Any questions, ask here and I'll answer.

Is there any way to modify the bulk checker to enable users to search by UPCs rather than just ASINs?

@Anthony Mancini Thanks, Anthony!
CanFlip Feedback
Im wondering if anybody has some feedback from the new Canflip update. Both things you enjoy and things you would like refined. I would love to hear all opinions to drop a update and fix anything annoying

@Anthony Mancini The "Bulk Checker" is great, but I'm wondering if it can be modified to check eligibility based on UPCs (in addition, of course, to ASINs).
Video ideas
Hey everybody! It's been a while since I've posted a YouTube video that's not a Canflip update. What's something that you guys would like to see? - a video on what to do for Q4 - another FBM video - a sourcing video Let me know in the comments!

An FBM video for sellers without a Stallion Express or Chit Chats nearby would be especially helpful. What KPF filters, for example, might such sellers use to find FBM products, given the higher cost of shipping they have to pay?
How much inventory should you buy for a variation listing (wholesale)?
This is one of the most common questions I see in wholesale, and honestly, most people are just guessing. You don't have to. There's a simple way to figure this out using Keepa and SellerAmp. Here's how I break it down. Step 1️⃣: Find the variation split on Keepa Go to Keepa and click on the Variation tab. Scroll to the right and you'll see a column called Review Percentage. This shows you how sales are split between the different variations (colors, sizes, etc). Let's say there are 2 variations. One is doing 86% of sales, and the other is doing 14%. And let's say the whole listing sells 5,000 units a month. You're interested in the variation doing 14%. because it has high profits Step 2️⃣: Work out the monthly sales for that specific variation. Just multiply the total sales by the percentage. 5,000 x 14% = 700 sales a month for that variation. Step 3️⃣: Check how many sellers are on that listing. Now head over to SellerAmp and check the seller count for that ASIN. Let's say there are 20 sellers. Step 4️⃣: Divide the sales by the number of sellers. 700 / 20 = 35 sales per month, per seller. That number (35) is roughly what you can expect to sell each month if you're one of 20 sellers on that variation. Step 5️⃣: Now decide your inventory From here, it's up to you. If you're comfortable getting a 2-3 month supply, you'd order somewhere around 70 to 105 units for that specific variation. If you want to start smaller and test it first, order less and scale up once you see how fast it actually moves for you. The key thing here is you're not just looking at total listing sales. You're breaking it down by variation and by seller count, so you're not overbuying stock nobody's going to touch, or underbuying something that could've sold way more. Anyone else have a method they use for this? Curious to see how other people approach it.

Keepa's "Variations" tab is unreliable in Canada; there isn't any way of distinguishing between US-based and CAD-based sales. Chances are that most of the sales are US-based.

@Umer Humayun Select the appropriate variation on the product page; navigate to the "Data" tab and then "Offers"; filter by "Prime" and "Include historical offers"; and then check and cross-reference the "Sold 30 days" column and the adjacent "Stock History" graphs, particularly those graphs with staircase-like line formations, which typically indicate sales. You'll get a rough estimate of how many units of a certain variation have sold within the last 30 days, but some of the sellers listed could be US sellers, so you still have to check whether they're based in the US to ensure that your own assessment is based on Canadian data.
