Private label brand doubles profit margin in six months using sellerboard
Region:
North America
Business type:
Private Label (FBA)
This Amazon private label seller specializes in organic wellness products and operates across multiple marketplaces with over 30 SKUs. As sales scaled, hidden costs and scattered financial data made it difficult to assess product-level profitability. By adopting sellerboard, the business gained real-time clarity on margins, optimized PPC campaigns, and automated inventory planning—resulting in a sharp increase in profit and operational control.
Results
Increase in net profit margin in 6 months
27% Reduction in wasted PPC spend
0 Stockouts after implementing inventory forecasting
Challenge Selling on Amazon as a private label brand offers high upside—but complex costs. This seller had strong top-line revenue but struggled with clarity on what was actually profitable. Amazon’s reports offered limited visibility into how FBA fees, ad spend, refunds, and storage charges impacted each product’s bottom line.

Meanwhile, PPC campaigns were difficult to scale. The team manually adjusted bids across dozens of campaigns but still overspent on underperforming keywords. Inventory issues compounded the problem: some products stocked out during peak demand, while others sat in Amazon warehouses incurring fees.
Solution
Real-time profit tracking: sellerboard’s Profit Dashboard provided a SKU-level view of true profitability, automatically factoring in Amazon fees, ad costs, promos, and refunds. This allowed the team to spot and phase out products that were selling well—but losing money.
PPC optimization: With sellerboard’s automated ad tools, the business reduced wasted ad spend by identifying low-performing keywords and reallocating budget toward high-ROI terms. This hands-off campaign management helped reduce ACoS and increase overall returns from advertising.
Inventory control: sellerboard’s Inventory Management module analyzed sales velocity and supplier lead times to predict stockouts and overstock risk. The brand set reorder alerts and stabilized fulfillment, preventing revenue loss and unnecessary storage costs.

Retail Arbitrage (FBA)
This U.S.-based retail arbitrage seller runs a high-volume Amazon FBA business, sourcing inventory from major retail chains and reselling online. As the catalog grew to over 300 active SKUs, tracking real profitability and managing refunds, returns, and reimbursements became unmanageable.

Challenge Retail arbitrage is fast-paced—but chaotic. This seller frequently sourced time-sensitive deals from clearance racks and seasonal promotions. But as the SKU count climbed, so did complexity: Amazon’s reporting tools lacked transparency, and the seller struggled to see if products were actually profitable after factoring in Amazon fees, ad spend, refunds, and overhead.

Manual spreadsheets couldn’t keep up with fluctuating costs and constant inventory churn. There were also gaps in reimbursement tracking—FBA warehouse errors were slipping through unnoticed. And returns data was buried, making it difficult to identify patterns that eroded margin.
Solution
Live profitability insights: sellerboard’s Profit Analytics offered SKU-level clarity in real time, automatically accounting for FBA fees, promos, refunds, shipping costs, and more. The dashboard helped the seller identify several high-volume ASINs that appeared profitable—but weren’t.
Automated reimbursement auditing: sellerboard’s Lost & Damaged Inventory tool scanned historical and ongoing transactions for units lost or damaged by Amazon. The system flagged reimbursement gaps and generated plug-and-play tickets. Within the first two months, over $4,700 was recovered with minimal effort.
Returns visibility: With sellerboard’s Returns Monitoring, the seller gained a clear view of refund-prone products. This enabled smarter sourcing decisions—by dropping high-return SKUs and avoiding risky categories like electronics, the business saw measurable profit gains.
Inventory planning: Even in a fast-flip model like arbitrage, sellerboard’s forecasting helped highlight restock timing and potential overstock risks. This led to tighter operations and fewer rushed shipments.
Results
$4,700+ recovered from missed reimbursements sellerboard identified unreimbursed inventory issues Amazon had overlooked. The business recovered thousands and now conducts regular audits without added workload.
15% boost in net profitability The seller phased out several low-margin or high-return products, rebalancing inventory toward better-performing SKUs. Profit margin increased by 15% without needing to grow revenue.
3 hours saved per week By automating financial tracking and Amazon operations, the seller reclaimed several hours per week—time now reinvested in sourcing and business growth.

Challenge Running multiple Amazon accounts means managing a flood of fragmented data. The agency had to constantly export reports, reconcile margins, and investigate refund losses across dozens of ASINs and accounts. Clients frequently asked for clear answers to profitability and ad performance questions—yet standard Amazon reporting lacked transparency.

Manual analysis not only drained time but introduced risk: small accounting oversights could lead to big misunderstandings. The team needed a scalable, accurate way to monitor true performance and communicate it clearly—without hiring more analysts.
Solution
Centralized multi-account view: sellerboard’s agency-friendly dashboard allowed the team to link all their client accounts and switch between them instantly. From one interface, they could review profit margins, PPC efficiency, returns data, and more—without jumping between Seller Central logins.
Accurate, real-time profitability: sellerboard calculated true net profit per SKU and per account, factoring in all fees, storage costs, refunds, promotions, and shipping. This gave the agency a reliable financial view they could trust—and use to advise clients on pricing, product focus, and ad budget.
Faster campaign optimizations: sellerboard’s PPC module helped the team quickly identify campaigns and keywords with poor ROI. They used this data to fine-tune advertising strategies across multiple accounts—focusing spend where it truly drove profit.
Streamlined onboarding and analysis: When a new client joined, sellerboard pulled in historical data automatically. The agency could run a full profitability and performance audit in days, rather than weeks—revealing key issues and demonstrating immediate value.
Client branding in dashboard access: For clients who were granted direct access, the agency added its own logo inside the sellerboard interface—offering a white-labeled feel without maintaining custom software.
Results
10+ hours saved weekly By eliminating manual reporting and centralizing account analysis, the team reclaimed significant time. Weekly check-ins now focus on insights and decisions—not data wrangling.
Quicker, smarter onboarding sellerboard gave the agency a systemized way to review new client accounts and surface performance gaps fast—helping them build trust early and propose data-backed improvements.
