Many people have ambitions of creating something huge and unique when it comes to running their own business on Amazon. However, the reality is that success often comes after taking smaller steps to lay the foundations and build a loyal customer base first.
Before you try to tackle something completely outside of your wheelhouse, why not consider adding complimentary items that work with your existing brand? These can be things like pet accessories, cleaning kits or shampoos – regardless, it’s important to create items that you understand and that make sense within the context of your current products. This approach makes launching new items easier and will help set you up for success on Amazon in the long run. Good luck!
