Checklist Before You Import

  • Demand: Use Google Trends, social search and marketplace searches (Jumia, Instagram, TikTok) to confirm real interest.
  • Competition: If many sellers already sell an item, determine how you’ll differentiate (price, bundles, fast delivery).
  • Profit Margin: Carefully calculate landed cost (product + shipping + duty + local delivery + ads) and target at least 25–40% margin.
  • Supplier Trust: Only order from verified sellers or use a reliable buying agent — scams are common on cheaper listings.

Quick Tips to Sell Faster

  • Start with a small test order — confirm quality and delivery before scaling.
  • Use WhatsApp marketing, Instagram Reels, and TikTok demos to show product uses.
  • Offer bundles and slight discounts for repeat buyers to increase average order value.
  • Keep clear images and short demo videos — customers buy what they visually trust.
