Most Sellers Get Up and Running in 3 Months
We found that most Amazon sellers are able to build a fully functional business within just 90 days. Even better, many run the entire operation in under 20 hours a week.
FBM vs. FBA: Speed and Cost
Sellers who choose Fulfilled by Merchant (FBM) often launch faster and with lower upfront costs compared to FBA. It’s a leaner path for those who want to test the waters without heavy investment.
How Much Money Do You Need to Start?
It turns out you don’t need a fortune. Two-thirds of sellers started with their own savings, no outside funding. Many launch with less than $5,000, and some even manage with as little as $1,000.
Funding Options If You Need Them
If you need help getting started, you could consider small business loans, borrowing from family, or other micro-lenders.
So, What’s Our Take?
The more capital you have, the more flexibility you’ll enjoy. But don’t let a small budget stop you—plenty of sellers made it work on a shoestring.
