Smart Prep Center Team1 min read

There are many myths around the Online Arbitrage model on Amazon that stop beginners from getting started. Let's take five of the most common ones and figure out where the truth is and where it isn't.

Myth 1: "Online Arbitrage is banned" — False

The company is not only aware of the presence of such entrepreneurs on its platform, but is always ready to help. The main thing is to comply with the marketplace's rules, and then this business model is completely legitimate.

Myth 2: "Favorable deals are hard to find" — False

Deals do need to be found, and this requires experience and certain skills. Experienced sellers identify profitable options much faster, but with practice anyone can learn to spot them.

Myth 3: "Competition is intense" — True

This one is true — but there is no competition only in a "dead business". To stand out, make your offer more competitive: add free gifts, create unique bundles, and provide guarantees.

Myth 4: "The path to profit is long" — False

Amazon allows us to prepare the product, ship it to the warehouses, and start selling from our account within 3–5 weeks.

Myth 5: "You need a substantial investment" — False

For the first batch of goods you will need $300–500, and you can get from 20% to 40% profit from this amount.
