The Amazon sellers who sold up and became millionaires
The sheer scale of Amazon means that if they get the products and the marketing right, small sellers can find themselves selling huge amounts quite quickly. Two years ago, when Ms Venton sold up, it was relatively rare to sell businesses based entirely on selling via Amazon. Over the past year, a new generation of firms has sprung up to offer Amazon entrepreneurs like Ms Venton a way to sell their businesses. "Back then [in 2018], it took seven months to sell a company, there were more sellers than buyers, and it was just a gigantic mess. The whole thing was an awful experience for sellers," he says. The best Amazon sellers make attractive investments because they often have bigger profit margins than their offline competitors, yet still sell for less than their offline counterparts.
