Month 2 FBA Progress Update (With Anthony’s Mentorship)
Hi guys, I wanted to share an update on my second month of FBA progress under the coaching of @Anthony Mancini Last month, I had my first sale on February 10th and managed to reach $1,111.27 in sales, with 21 orders and 28 units sold by the end of the month. I was just getting my feet wet, learning the fundamentals like reading Keepa charts at a basic level, navigating Sellerboard and Seller Central, using Keepa’s Product Finder to source, and building my seller ID base while understanding what the different settings do. March results (Amazon data is missing sales from the last day of the month): - Sales : $2994.09 - Orders : 77 - Units Sold : 84 - Capital Spent on Inventory : 4,147.14 - Inventory Units Purchased : 202 March has been the month where I’ve learned the most, in a lot more detail, especially when it comes to using Keepa at a more advanced level. I started utilizing the “Track Product” feature almost every time I find a lead that is ungated and sourceable but where the Buy Box price is too low. This way, I get notified whenever the price reaches a certain threshold, making it profitable for me to buy. It’s a very useful tool, and I’ve already gotten sales because of it. Another key thing I learned from @Anthony Mancini 's mentorship is how to understand the “Data” section at the top of the Keepa chart. Learning how to read “Offers” and “Buy Box Statistics” has been instrumental in my decision-making when purchasing leads. It’s probably one of the most valuable pieces of information I’ve gotten so far. I won’t go too deep into it, because as Snoop Dogg says, “The game is meant to be sold, not told.” meaning some information out there is either meant to be earned through hard life lessons and losing money/time from mistakes, or you can do what I did and learn from people who have the knowledge and have been through the difficult times to build upon them. If it were given out too easily and freely, anything worthwhile would inevitably become saturated very quickly.

The Classroom is LIVE.
I just published The Canadian FBA Roadmap inside the Classroom tab. It's a full video walkthrough of everything you need to get started selling on Amazon in Canada: → Setting up your Seller Central account → Getting your prep supplies ready → Why you need a credit card (and which kind) → Keepa, SellerAmp, SellerBoard explained (with links to get set up) → The cashback stack that saves you money on every purchase → Understanding FBA terms so you're not Googling mid-conversation → Sourcing fundamentals → A "What's Next" guide once you've gone through everything Every lesson has a short video (1-4 minutes) plus written notes. No fluff. No 45-minute lectures. Just the stuff you need. This is free. All of it. For every member. Go to the Classroom tab and start with 1.0 Orientation. Work through it at your own pace. If you get stuck on anything, post your question in the community. The people who actually DO the lessons (not just watch them) are the ones who end up making money. Don't just consume. Take action. And if you finish everything and want the full deep-dive system (advanced Keepa, sourcing machine, shipping, ungating, repricing)... that's coming soon. 👀 Drop a comment if you're starting the Roadmap this week. Let's go.

The reason your Amazon sales flatline even though you source every day.
You’re feeding Dragon One but starving Dragon Two. Dragon One is finding new leads. New products to test. New ASINs to add to your pipeline. This is the exciting part. The treasure hunt. Dragon Two is staying in stock on the products that already sell. Most sellers spend 100% of their time on Dragon One. They source for hours every day. They add new products every week. And they wonder why revenue stays flat. Here’s why: Your new leads are lottery tickets. Some hit, most don’t. Maybe 1 in 5 turns into a consistent seller. That’s normal. But your winners? The products that already proved themselves after 1-2 restocks? Those are your guaranteed revenue. When you go OOS on a winner, you don’t just lose today’s sales. You lose Buy Box momentum. You lose velocity. Sometimes you lose it for good because another seller takes your spot while you were gone. The math is brutal: 10 products making $8/unit, selling 5/month each = $400/month. Go OOS on half of them? You just lost $200. Meanwhile that entire week of sourcing new leads might generate $50 in its first month. Maybe. The fix: Spend at least 30% of your sourcing time on restock research. Check your top sellers weekly. Know when they go on sale at the retailer. Know how fast you burn through inventory. Build a restock calendar. New leads fill your pipeline.Restocks fill your bank account. Feed both dragons.
Canada's smaller market is actually your advantage. Here is why.
Everyone talks about the US market like it is the promised land. More sales. More volume. More opportunity. But here is what they don't tell you. The US market is a bloodbath. You have 10x the competition fighting for the same deals. Sellers with more capital, better tools, and automated repricers running 24/7. The race to the bottom is real and it is fast. In Canada? It is a different game. LESS COMPETITION MEANS MARGIN LASTS LONGER When you find a good product in Canada, you can actually hold the Buy Box for a while. You are not fighting off 12 other sellers with the same repricer logic. The margins stay intact longer because fewer people are undercutting each other. That product that would get crushed in 3 days on Amazon US might run for weeks on Amazon Canada. I have seen it happen repeatedly. EASIER TO ESTABLISH YOURSELF In the US, you are competing against people who have been doing this for a decade. They have relationships with retailers. They know exactly when the clearance drops happen. They have VA teams scanning 10 hours a day. In Canada, that is rare. Most Canadian sellers are still figuring it out. The bar is lower. You can actually get good at this without fighting against people who have a 5-year head start. SMALLER WAREHOUSE NETWORK Canada has fewer Amazon fulfillment centers. That means when you send inventory to FBA, you are not dealing with the placement fee nightmare US sellers have. You ship to one warehouse, Amazon distributes it, and you actually get Buy Box priority because your inventory is spread across their network automatically. US sellers pay extra to avoid placement fees. In Canada it just happens. THE MATH IS DIFFERENT Yes, the Canadian market is smaller. Fewer customers. Fewer sales per listing. But you need fewer sales to make the same money when the margins are better. A product doing 10 units a month in Canada at 40% ROI is worth the same as a product doing 30 units a month in the US at 15% ROI. I will take 10 units at 40% all day.
