  1. From FBA to FBM: Deciding the Best Fulfillment Method for Your Amazon Business When selling on Amazon, choosing the right fulfillment method can significantly impact your success. Amazon provides two primary options: Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) and Fulfillment by Merchant (FBM). Each has its advantages and is suitable for different business models. At eCommerceAlly, we help Amazon sellers navigate these choices, ensuring their operations are optimized for growth and profitability. Understanding FBA and FBM 1. Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA): With FBA, sellers send their products to Amazon’s fulfillment centers, where Amazon handles storage, shipping, returns, and customer service. This method ensures eligibility for Amazon Prime and faster delivery. 2. Fulfillment by Merchant (FBM): FBM allows sellers to store, pack, and ship orders directly to customers, managing customer service and returns independently. This method provides more control but requires significant logistical effort.

  2. Benefits and Drawbacks of Each Model Criteria FBA FBM Ease of Use Amazon handles logistics and customer service. Sellers manage logistics and support. Prime Eligibility Eligible for Prime, boosting visibility and sales. Not eligible for Prime unless via Seller Fulfilled Prime. Cost Fees for storage, shipping, and fulfillment. Lower fees but higher operational costs. Control Limited control over shipping and branding. Full control over shipping methods and returns.

  3. Scalability Ideal for scaling due to Amazon's infrastructure. Requires scaling own logistics. Customer Experience Amazon's trusted service improves experience. Dependent on seller's fulfillment quality. When to Choose FBA FBA is ideal for: Small and Medium Businesses: Those looking to scale quickly without investing in warehousing or logistics. High-Demand Products: Items that benefit from Prime visibility, such as consumer electronics or seasonal goods. International Sellers: Businesses targeting a global audience without managing cross-border logistics. ● ● ● At eCommerceAlly, we’ve seen clients increase sales by up to 30% after switching to FBA due to improved visibility and customer trust. When to Choose FBM FBM suits: Low-Margin Products: Sellers avoiding high FBA fees for products with slim margins. Custom or Fragile Items: Products needing specialized packaging or personal touches. Experienced Sellers: Businesses with established logistics infrastructure. ● ● ● For example, one of our clients dealing in handcrafted furniture chose FBM to maintain control over the delivery process, ensuring products reached customers in pristine condition. Key Metrics to Consider 1. Cost Analysis: Compare FBA fees (storage, pick, and pack) with your FBM logistics costs. Use tools like Amazon’s FBA Calculator for precise numbers. 2. Sales Volume: High-volume sellers often benefit from FBA due to Amazon’s scalable infrastructure. 3. Customer Preferences: Customers value fast shipping; Prime eligibility can be a game-changer.
