Hello FBA newbies…

I’d want the newbie opinions here… Is it okay to start with Wholesaling or Private label?

Thank you

To successfully launch a private label (PL) in the USA, it is recommended to have a budget of at least $10,000 for pre-launch activities and initial inventory. An additional $10.000 should also be allocated for the second round of inventory and advertising expenses to achieve desired results.

But I’d recommend you to go for Amazon FBA wholesale it is a less risky and quicker way to generate profits (15-25% ROl within few months) as products come from established brands. Private label takes time (1-2 years) to get handsome profits. The choice depends on risk tolerance, investment timeline, and business goals.

For PL estimated budget is 20000 US dollars minimum while for wholesale you will need 3000$ minimum. Plus PL is a long-term kind of investment while wholesale allows you to get profit from the get go

I started with around $4k in cash and went fulltime immediately, but I guess it was much easier 9 years ago

It depends on your budget. For PL you will need a big budget and it’s also a time taking & long term business.

Wholesale is not a long term business it can be start in low budget.
