U.S. channel fit (rule of thumb)
- Amazon: commodity-adjacent essentials, consumables, accessories.
- Shopify: brandable collections, bundles, education-led merchandising.
- Walmart: mainstream household, baby, auto, kitchen, laundry.
- TikTok Shop: demonstrable products (beauty, hair, hydration, fitness, craft).
48-Hour Validation (no guesswork)
- Search intent scan: Google your SKU idea; note ad density, top formats, common questions.
- Marketplaces: On Amazon/Walmart, check top listings’ review velocity (steady > spiky).
- Social proof: On TikTok/IG, look for evergreen angles (how-to, maintenance, organization) rather than one-off trends.
- Costing: Can you hit a landed cost ≤30–35% of target price (after freight)?
- Small test launch: Start with 5–10 SKUs + bundles; run $20/day creative tests (3 hooks, same product).
Avoid these traps
- Gadget fads: spike then die; hard to reorder profitably.
- Regulatory gray zones: supplements, claims, batteries without proper testing.
- Single-SKU stores: fragile to competition and ad costs.
- Oversize/overweight (unless you have margin and 3PL figured out).
