Helium 10 has Partnered with Alibaba.com – Here’s What It Means for Amazon Sellers | SSP 214

This is big news! The combined strength of Helium 10 and Alibaba.com will streamline the product sourcing process and save you valuable time.

Selling on Amazon can mean something different to everyone. However, there’s one activity that most sellers share. Once they find a product opportunity, the vast majority start their sourcing process on Alibaba.com.

After identifying a product opportunity, most Amazon sellers head immediately to Alibaba.com to make use of the platform’s endless filtering capabilities and the massive number of suppliers to begin their search for a product and supplier.

In this episode of the Serious Sellers Podcast, Helium 10’s Director of Training and Chief Evangelist, Bradley Sutton welcomes the President of Alibaba.com in North America and Europe, John Caplan. He’s here today to talk about the different ways that Alibaba.com can help Amazon sellers find success. He also explains why they decided that Helium 10 was the right company to partner with, and how he feels it will benefit Amazon sellers.

John says that “Alibaba.com was built for the B2B trade.” Alibaba.com has been expanding globally and has increased its focus on security as well as adding shipping services to the growing number of ways that it supports small businesses.
