Amazon Selling Myths vs Facts
Episode description
If you’ve been thinking about selling on Amazon, you’ve probably heard all sorts of advice - some of it helpful, and some of it... not so much.
In today’s episode, I'm busting 10 common myths about selling on Amazon, including:
- Why you don’t need thousands of pounds to start
- What it really takes to get sales (hint: it’s not automatic!)
- Why you don’t have to be the cheapest to succeed
- How much control you actually have over your brand on Amazon
- Why it’s definitely not too late to start selling in 2025
- Whether you can start with just one product
- How ads fit into the picture - and if you really have to run them
- What really happens with account suspensions (and how to stay safe)
- Why having your own website still matters
- And why it’s not as impossible as it might feel!
If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed by mixed messages or just want a bit of clarity before you dive in, this episode is for you.
