Amazon Research Tools

Jungle Scout is probably the most well-known Amazon tool out there. They have expanded their offer with various services, to go along with their robust research tools.

They also offer a free trial so you can test things out before making a final decision. Their pricing is a bit cheaper to start off with, but one of the drawbacks is that you need to pay separately for the Chrome extension.

I mention this because the Chrome add-on can be very helpful and reduce research time, as it gives real-time metrics about products directly in the Amazon search pages.

AMZScout offers a very good set of research tools, but as far as I can tell at least, no extra services in their portfolio yet. That shouldn’t be a deal breaker at this point, since you should focus on finding a good product first and foremost

They also offer free trials if you want to get familiar with their tools, and they have the cheapest prices compared to the competitors.

A great overall solution that offers multiple tools and services. There is an option for a free trial, so you can get a feel for the tools, and you can upgrade if you are satisfied.

You don’t need to start with the most expensive plan right off the bat. You can start with one month of the basic plan for the initial research and then extend and expand as you need.

The advantage of Viral Launch is that all the tools are integrated and you get everything bundled into the same price, both in terms of their web interface and the Chrome add-on.

I haven’t used their services too much, but they are a well-known and established brand in the Amazon product search tools domain.

They have a selection of tools for product and keyword research, as well as services to help you manage your Amazon listing. There’s a free plan available to get you started, so you have absolutely no reason not to give them a look and see if you like their offer.

Freelance Services

One of the most well-known freelancing platforms. On Fiverr you can find people that can help you out with all sorts of services like graphics and design work,writing, translation and many others.

The pricing model has moved away from the initial idea of paying $5 for a service, but it’s still an affordable solution with quality freelancers.

99designs is a global creative platform that makes it easy for designers and clients to work together to create designs.

The platform connects talented freelance designers with entrepreneurs and businesses and you can leverage these services when building your private label brand.

Upwork is a more general freelance platform, similar to Fiverr, but oriented more towards long term services, rather than one-off requests

You can find a variety of services offered, like web development,design, writing, marketing and others.

One way to ensure you have an optimized Amazon product page is to use a specialized business that offers these services.

A great example is the team at The Listing Factory. They have various bundles with services such as copy writing and keyword research, Pay Per Click campaign setups and even product photography and video creation.

Domain & Hosting

NameCheap is a reliable registrar for your domain name.

You will need a domain name when you want to set-up your customized e-mail address, as well as your Shopify store.

InMotion offers hosting services for your domain.

If you choose to build your own website, or blog, you can use their services. However, it’s not applicable for Shopify stores, since they use their own platform for hosting.

It can be useful though if your want to go a different route, like WooComerce or other types of online stores.
