ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Are your overseas suppliers actually passing your Amazon quality bar, or are you just hoping they are because switching feels complicated and tariffs are already eating your lunch? Neil Twa dives into the 2026 sourcing landscape, revealing a staggering insight: a seller doing $80,000 a month with a 35% cost of goods ratio could see an additional $8,400 per month by tightening quality controls. Neil shares a real example from his portfolio, where a home goods brand faced tariff pressures after years of sourcing from China. Discover three actionable moves to ensure your suppliers meet your standards: start with a detailed spec sheet, evaluate your supplier relationships, and manage data across multiple countries. This episode is packed with insights for sellers at every level, from those launching their first product to operators managing $1M+ in monthly sales. Ready to implement with us?

If you spend the next 30 minutes with me, you stop guessing which SKUs deserve your Q4 cash and start protecting margin with a hard scorecard. Most sellers treat Q4 funding like a lottery. They pour cash into listings based on gut feel, hoping for the best. That is a margin leak. I looked at the se…
October is when an Amazon FBA reorder turns into a stockout. Most sellers wait until November to fix the math. By then the inbound misses the holiday curve. On one home and kitchen brand I run, units went from 40 in August to 122 in September. That is the curve starting, not a lucky week. Place tha…

This approach leaves you overstocked, underpriced, and out of cash before the holiday season…
Stop guessing where your Amazon ad dollars go. If you spend the next 30 minutes listening, you will know exactly how to find the waste hiding in your Sponsored Products campaigns.
