Crack the Amazon Sales Rank Code

You have been selling on Amazon for a while and you have had a lot of success with some products but half the time you venture out and try to sell new products and you either end up waiting for them to sell for forever or you finally give in and donate them to Goodwill for the tax right off. In your mind you are thinking that if there is a listing for it on Amazon it must sell on a regular basis, right?

Unfortunately this is not necessarily the case. There are over 200 million products on Amazon but just because it’s listed does not mean it is going to sell any time soon.

So what are you supposed to do? Just take a shot in the dark and pray that the products you are buying are going to sell? Of Course Not!

Luckily there are a few tools out there that will help us to figure out a little bit more about the Amazon Sales Rank of the products we want to sell. As long as we can find the Sales Rank of the product we can use these tools did get an idea of how many of this product sell every day.

The third great feature of FBA Toolkit is its Product Tracking tool. Although a product’s Amazon Sales Rank is a great indicator of how well a product sells, it can be deceiving sometimes. For example, say you found a product on clearance at Target and it looks like a no brainer to buy. Its Amazon Sales Rank is really low and the profit margin is pretty good. Usually this would seem like a great buy but what you didn’t think about was that this was a seasonal product and now that the season is over the sales rank will drop and you might be sitting on it until next year.

With the Product Tracking tool you would be able to put in the item’s ASIN and see that before that particular season, none of that product was selling. This will help you avoid buying items that spiked in sales but will not consistently sell at that rate. Nice!

As you can see, online tools like FBA Toolkit can really help you with making better purchasing decisions for your Amazon selling business.
