Stop chasing every gated product you see.

I know it feels like that is the thing holding you back.

You find a lead.

ROI looks good.

Sales look good.

Then Amazon says you cannot sell it.

Annoying as hell.

But most new sellers waste way too much energy trying to force products they cannot touch yet.

When I started, I did the opposite.

I looked at the brands I could already sell and went deeper there.

One brand.

Then another.

That is boring, but it compounds.

Because every product you check gives you something:

You learn the brand.

You learn the price range.

You learn the Keepa chart.

You learn which Canadian retailers carry it.

You learn what to track for later.

And over time, Amazon starts trusting your account more because you are actually selling.

The mistake is thinking ungating comes before selling.

A lot of the time, selling what you can sell is what gets you there.

If you are stuck right now, do this for your next sourcing session:

Pick 5 brands you are already approved for.

Search those brands across Canadian retailers.

Track every decent product, even if it is not a buy today.

Do not start from zero every time.

Where are you getting stuck most right now, gated products, finding brands, or actually pulling the trigger?
