Episode notes
Start with Open Categories
- Start selling on Amazon in open categories to avoid initial gating restrictions.
- These include categories like tools, home improvement, toys, games, and more.
Subcategory Gating
- Not every subcategory or brand within an open category is automatically accessible.
- Amazon uses gating to control product quality and protect its brand and customers.
Request Approval Widely
- Request approval for every brand or subcategory, even if you don't plan to sell it initially.
- You might get ungated surprisingly easily, which opens future opportunities.
