The Opportunity Ep.25: How to Position Your FBA Business for a Lucrative Exit

In this episode of The Opportunity Podcast, we will be speaking with Jim Barton, a Senior Seller Advisor with Empire Flippers. Jim takes a deep dive on exiting FBA businesses and the changes of Amazon’s marketplace as a whole.

Amazon never seems to stand still and that certainly applies to the growth the platform has seen in the past year. Jim opens up as to why that matters to the sellers he mentors at Empire Flippers. He explains how this is a moment in time that FBA sellers should consider where they are with their businesses and walks us through the steps sellers should take early to best position themselves for an exit. Jim also compares the changing landscape of Amazon to the changes to our marketplace and shares updates to deal making that will hit home with those who are looking to buy or sell in the near future.

Sit back, grab a coffee, and get ready to learn what steps you can take to position your FBA business for its best possible exit.
