A good time to start an FBA business?

A subscriber asked this during the week. They’d been seeing promos saying now was an amazing time to start an FBA (Fulfillment By Amazon) business.

Of course, those promos were selling a course on how to do it.

I didn’t see anything wrong with the course itself, but I’d be hesitant to start a physical product business right now ✋

In the era of coronavirus, we’re seeing drastic changes to both supply and demand for products on Amazon, and we’re seeing Amazon respond to both. These changes are affecting both consumers AND Amazon’s third-party sellers in unprecedented ways.

Those drastic changes could well lead to some big opportunities, but methinks it’d be hard to identify and capitalize on those opportunities if you don’t already have a lot of experience with that particular business model.

If you’re just starting out making money online, I still think your best bet is to look for freelance gigs or a remote jobMore on that here.
