Today’s podcast is on: I saved 10,000 dollars in one day by expanding my Amazon knowledge

But before we start, your morning Amazon News Flash, to get you primed up on Amazon, as I believe Knowledge is power, and these related tidbits from news, can assist you in your decision making.

Today’s Podcast, EPISODE 1-3 is titled I saved 19,500 dollars in one day with this secret

. This isn’t some gimmicky trick or joke…. it’s Amazon. When your moving mass units, making even the smallest adjustments, are hard, but when you do them, they can make all the fricken difference. This is why I read Amazon News every day to you guys, its’ not to expand the length of the podcast, its to keep us informed, knowledgeable to the K, about the ever so changing landscape of Amazon, between their futuristic drone program, their in-a-sense monopolized -cloud network, their invasion of smart home devices, and their dominance in e-commerce.

The more units we sell on Amazon, the more complicated our logistics get. It becomes a jungle, and no matter where you are at in your journey, this podcast episode in itself will save you tens of thousands of dollars one day.

So. When I first started selling, I chose speed over cost savings, I chose air freight over sea freight. Your probably like, “okay David, everyone knows sea freight is a lot cheaper than air freight. “Your absolutely correct. Air freight, for those of you new, is typically handled by UPS international, DHL, or Fedex. You can ship anything from China to the U.S using any of these air freight companies. The typical cost for me, is for every 1000 units I send, it cost me $3000 dollars, in air freight, whether DHL, or Fedex. Interesting. Yes, I know. Now Sea freight, has a very interesting change. You’ll need to know your total Cubic Meter Volume and weight in kilograms. The interesting change is, you can buy containers by 20 foot and 40 foot, and the price is relatively the same, as long as you fill the container. A container can go anywhere from 3k-5k on average.

Now, here’s where it gets even MORE interesting. After spending $9000 on air freight in my last payment, I knew I needed more knowledge on Sea Freight, and just logistics in general. My scourge of the web was vast, destructive, and all consuming. I spent days mapping out how sea freight worked on white boards, from how FOB, brokerages, freight containers varied. This time around I’m sending 12,000 units and everything had to be perfect. With a 12,000-unit shipment, if I went my previous route, that would have costed $27,000 dollars. 27,000 dollars. If you ever seen the Italian Job, the guy yells “27 million” when they pull of their heist. The only thing was, I was saying… “27,000 “in a not such happy voice. The heist was on me.

Okay, so “How’d this all pan out DAVID?
