BuyBotPro does its thing without much effort at all - sometimes with NO effort. All that deal analysis data delivered INSTANTLY at the press of a button….
….if you use Online Arbitrage Deals you don’t even need to click!
With a little creative thinking, BuyBotPro will help you find more routes to more profit
Getting more than great deal analysis, and using BuyBotPro features to diversify your Amazon business, means you’ll get more value from your subscription too. Yes, we have the obvious ones in the Manual Sourcing Accelerator which makes manual sourcing more efficient, and can effectively act as a free sourcing software.
There’s also the BuyBotGo app for all you Retail Arbitrage sellers….and the OA sellers who have jumped on that bandwagon since its launch in 2021.
There are some less leveraged features that are either skipped past, hidden away or a “negative” result is just accepted
As an entrepreneur you’ll know there are opportunities everywhere, and that’s no different using BuyBotPro.
Let us give you a nudge in the right direction….
The “Magic” Auto Ungate Button
An oldie-but-goldie….getting ungated in restricted categories or brands. This is probably one of the more obvious ones, but not everyone takes the super-easy opportunity BuyBotPro offer in Auto Ungate.
If you are a brand new seller it may not immediately deliver a ton of “Success!” notifications….
….but if you’ve been in Online Arbitrage for a few months you’ll almost certainly get more than you expect!
The reason we say newer sellers MAY not get immediate positive results is purely down to the way Amazon operate. Build up a bit of history with a healthy account and you’ll be bathing in an ocean of new brands and categories.
Fingers crossed….it’s one of the biggest buzzes in OA when the SUCCESS! Indicator appears
It’s free and takes ZERO time to click Auto Ungate and get an answer. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been selling, ALWAYS click on it when it pops up!
Amazon don’t always tell you when they are happy for you to sell a brand or category…
….this is by far the easiest way to find out.
Even if Auto Ungate isn’t successful you will be provided a link to apply through the relevant Amazon page.
There aren’t many ways better to grow you Amazon business than getting unrestricted in more categories and brands. We couldn’t NOT include it!
Activate The Multi-Market Analyzer
Most of you are probably making the most of the BuyBotPro customisation to streamline what you see in the panel, and good on you if you are.
See how an ASIN might fare in another marketplace….if you see a pattern it might to a sign to branch out!
If you aren’t selling in different marketplaces the Multi-Market Analyzer is often the first to get cut….after all who cares if a product makes 100% R.O.I. on the other side of the world?
Well, you are more than likely missing out on bagging some very welcome profit
Selling in different marketplaces has changed the fortunes of many a seller’s Online Arbitrage business – even if just with a few products.
In Europe – or at least for UK sellers – things haven’t been quite as rosy since the start of 2021, but that is soon to change as Amazon roll out a new version of EFN (European Fulfilment Network).
Yes, there might be additional fees….and yes, there can be some red tape. Selling in neighbouring, or even distant, marketplaces is an opportunity that all sellers should at least consider.
The Multi-Market Analyzer analyses a deal in more than half a dozen different marketplaces at once
It’ll do the exchange rate conversion for you, flash a red warning on a deal if it’s not a profit-maker AND give you Charts to ponder and a quick link to the listing in that marketplace.
Get a great snapshot from multiple markets without leaving the “home” Amazon page
If getting zero-effort, at-a-glance profit-making opportunities isn’t going to persuade you to branch out beyond your marketplace….
….well, we don’t know what will!
Dangerous Goods Shouldn’t Be Hazardous To Your Profit
The Hazmat and Dangerous Goods Alerts are super annoying when they flag up red. They pop up automatically when you pull up an Amazon listing so, before you even analyse it, there can be a little shot to the heart.
For some sellers – well, most really – it means they don’t bother analysing it at all
This SHOULD be the perfect case of grabbing an opportunity in the face of adversity.
Amazon have, over the years, tightened up over what they consider Hazardous Material and Dangerous Goods.
Red shouldn’t always mean stop….there are ways to flip the narrative on Dangerous Goods ASINs
Nowadays, they have dedicated areas within dedicated Fulfilment Centres that can house these goods so, not only do they control safety within their network, they need to know that sellers are sending these goods safely.
Some products they mark as Dangerous Goods may come as a surprise to some….but who are Amazon to argue with?!
If you see anything other than a green dot in the Dangerous Goods indicator there is hope though, and it should be a prompt to apply to sell them.
Amazon launched the Dangerous Goods Program to screen the sellers they allow to send these items into their Fulfilment Network.
The program opens a lot of doors for FBA sellers, but isn’t the only way to sell Dangerous Goods
If you haven’t applied to the program, it is never too soon – or too late - to do so. It’ll open up a load of new doors to products you thought you couldn’t sell previously.
There is an alternative way to sell ASINs that the Dangerous Goods and Hazmat indicators flag up
Whether the program might not be for you or - as there will be limited Fulfilment Centres they can be sent to - a product may not be profitable with possible additional shipment costs, it’s not the end of the road.
Even if you are strictly an FBA seller, these are the types of products that are worth considering selling Merchant Fulfilled.
Yes, you’ll have to package it up and arrange to ship it direct to buyers, but there is a good chance you’ll be faced with less competition….as well as reduced fees!
Profit Shouldn’t Be Allowed To Melt Away In The Sun
The Meltable Alert is an extremely useful one, and one that is primarily designed to avoid losing stock to the Amazon bin (or staff!) when the deadline comes around.
For most marketplaces, the Spring sees a rush to offload chocolate, wax-based products, gummy sweets and the like, before Amazon close the doors.
If you are organised though, there are opportunities to profiteer from this policy
Firstly, if you have meltable products in Amazon a couple of weeks before the meltables cut-off, and you can’t make profit from them, have them removed.
Be sure to check your marketplace as – depending on temperature and season changes – dates aren’t universal.
Meltables dates can vary from marketplace to marketplace….in the UK it’s surprising to some that it ever gets warm enough to melt stuff!
If you don’t have a sweet tooth, Friends or family that do, or have another use for them, there is still an opportunity to profit from them.
As the cut-off passes all the FBA sellers will drop off the listing which - in all likelihood – will push the price up.
Take advantage of the drop in competition and lower fees - sell them Merchant Fulfilled
Amazon are usually pretty conservative with the Meltable cut-off – after all, they can’t predict the weather!
This means there will almost certainly be time to sell them before the weather in your marketplace means any manual delivery method risks them melting in transit.
Customers still eat chocolate, gummy sweets and use wax-based products when the weather warms up!
If MF isn’t for you, and it isn’t for everyone, check the Use By dates on your products. If they have at least 90 days from the date that Meltables are allowed back in the FBA network – and you can safely store them – hold onto them and ship them back as soon as you can safely.
These sellers have shifted to MF before the end of April ready for the end of Meltables season
We know a fair few sellers won’t be able to resist knowing there are sweet goods are stashed away in the basement or spare room but, if you can, prepare for the restart through the warmer months.
Outside of Christmas and Easter times there can be some great deals for these types of goods
If you have some storage space to spare that can be kept cool - and can spare the capital – consider the re-opening of Meltable season as you would Q4.
The key to success here will be being organised and have your Meltable inventory ready to ship on the day Amazon start accepting it again. Beat the rush of sellers and get it all listed before Halloween, Thanksgiving and the early Christmas shoppers get stocked up.
To be helpful, Amazon provide a list of ASINs that fall foul of the Meltable rule, but BuyBotPro – and BuyBotGo – will let you know if you’re analysing one in an instant.
See The Real Potential With Max Sold Price
When you click Analyse, BuyBotPro gives you instant results to thousands of data points. You get a super-fast snapshot of how an ASIN is performing - at that moment.
The Confidence Score rates its viability, summarises the key factors and you can scroll down and get FULL analysis of tons of numbers.
What you also get is a quick look at what a listing CAN sell for
A sneaky little addition to the Details panel that some sellers STILL haven’t even spotted - let alone utilised - is the Max Sold Price.
For the sellers (well, all sellers really) who use a repricer like Profit Protector Pro it’s a fantastic tool to prevent violating Amazon’s Fair Pricing Policy. Knowing the highest price it has sold at in the previous 12 months can really help avoid over-pricing.
This ASIN is selling at £17.99 for a decent ROI, but HAS sold for £23.99 in the last 12 months
It is also a great tool when considering the potential profitability of a product.
Yes, you could scan the Charts to find this out….but this feature gives you the data instantly
Careful assessment of the history of a product will give clues as to whether you might reach this selling price, or at least near it. If the Max Sold Price is only a few percent above the current selling price it may not be a great opportunity….
….if it is significantly higher, then it may be a future star.
If you have space in your inventory for a slow-burner or fancy testing their passive strategies keep an eye on the Max Sold Price!
The BuyBotPro Charts Reveal Countless Secrets
We’ve done a LOT of Facebook posting, filming of tutorial videos and written articles to reveal some of the secrets the BuyBotPro Charts can unlock….
….have you nailed your Chart-reading game though?
The charts are full of revealing data, but how you read them will depend on you and your business strategy.
There are some SIMPLE tricks to get you started though, if you’ve avoided reading them so far!
Primarily, the beauty of the Charts is the pictorial representation it offers – making it a dream for those averse to studying the numbers. 
See as many, or few, colours as you like with the customisation toggles in the Charts
The trends, peaks and troughs, seasonal variations and detail the main BuyBotPro Chart can show makes decision-making a LOT easier. One of the most critical being the historic price and seller number correlation.
Using the main Chart and Offers And Reviews Chart in tandem, it is easy to see how an ASIN has behaved historically. When you see some obvious trends you may well have a product that isn’t a deal now….
….but it might well be a golden egg a couple of months down the line
Whether that means you get it in and sit on it, or whisk it off to FBA, using this kind of data can turn a non-deal right now into a great one down the line.
Other easy-to-spot detail that reveal more about a deal include the Average Buy Box and FBA prices tables, and the nature of the peaks and drops of the BSR lines.
The Averages Charts are an easy way to view the selling price trends
There are a wealth of resources in the YouTube channel and Articles page that will help recognise the secrets the Charts reveal, but the message is….
….don’t ignore them. There is gold in them there Charts!
We hate using cliches like “think outside the box” around BuyBotPro towers, but sometimes it fits the bill….some of these opportunities do require a little creative thinking.
For some of you it might not be alternative thinking at all – it might just be the way you think – which is a great attribute to have as an entrepreneur!
Using BuyBotPro’s features and data in a creative way can really level-up your success
