How To Sell Clothes On Amazon
FAQs
How do I create an Amazon seller account?
Visit Amazon Seller Central and sign up for an Individual or Professional selling account. You'll need to provide contact, tax, and bank details.
What fees will I pay when selling clothes?
Fees include: referral fees per item sold, variable closing fees per item, and optional FBA prep and storage fees if using fulfillment.
Should I use FBA or self-fulfillment?
FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) handles storage, packing, and shipping for you. Good for scaling. Self-fulfillment costs less but is more work.

Source wholesale lots through sites like Liquidation.com or establish relationships with clothing manufacturers/suppliers in your niche.
What metrics should I track for my listings?
Use tools like Jungle Scout to monitor BSR (Best Seller Rank), number of reviews, sales velocity, inventory levels, and more.
How can I drive external traffic to my listings?
Use social media, SEO, influencer marketing, promotions/giveaways, Amazon DSP ads, and other channels to promote listings.
What is the best shipping method for clothes?
First Class Mail or Priority Mail are most affordable. Use poly mailers and be sure to reinforce packaging so items don't get damaged.
