Overview

Amazon has assembled a library of on‑demand video tutorials that walk Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) sellers through every stage of getting inventory into its warehouses. Launched in early 2024, the series targets both newcomers and seasoned sellers who need a quick refresher on preparation, labeling, packing, and reporting. Mastering the material can prevent shipment rejections, reduce prep fees, and improve inventory health—outcomes that directly affect the bottom line.

Key Points

• Product‑prep tutorials — Short videos demonstrate how to bag, bubble‑wrap, or otherwise protect items such as apparel, glassware, and hazardous goods, using real‑world examples like a 12‑oz glass bottle that requires a poly bag with a suffocation warning.
• Labeling walkthroughs — Step‑by‑step guidance shows where to place FNSKU stickers, how to verify barcode readability, and when a manufacturer barcode can be used, illustrated with a case of a multi‑SKU case pack of kitchen utensils.
• Packing best‑practice guides – The series explains box weight limits (e.g., 50 lb per box), the difference between mixed‑SKU cartons and single‑SKU case packs, and pallet stacking patterns, demonstrated with a shipment of 200 units of a fitness tracker.
• Fulfillment‑report training – Dedicated videos break down the Restock Inventory Report, Stranded Inventory Report, and Long‑Term Storage Fee Report, using a sample inventory dashboard for a seller of seasonal décor.
• Free, self‑service access — All videos are hosted on Seller Central and can be streamed at any time, eliminating the need for paid courses or third‑party webinars.

How Amazon’s FBA Video Tutorials Work

1. Access the video library — Sellers log into Seller Central, navigate to the “Resources” tab, and click “FBA Training Videos.” For example, a seller in the “Home & Kitchen” category selects the “Product Preparation” playlist and sees a 5‑minute clip on poly‑bagging fragile items.
2. Select a topic and watch — Each tutorial is organized by operational step. A user preparing a shipment of scented candles chooses the “Labeling” video, which pauses at the moment the presenter scans a barcode, showing the exact placement on the product’s outer packaging.
