“Many retailers make the mistake of having a disconnected structure between inventory and sales.

Every sale decision that you make has to be connected with the inventory impact of that decision.”

We also discuss Fabricio’s past success as an FBA seller, including how he was able to make $10 million in sales in his first few years on Amazon. Fabricio sheds light on some of the biggest mistakes sellers make when scaling their businesses, and reveals the systems sellers can put in place to help them navigate changes in the eCommerce industry.
