Title: CPT-11390 Amazon Online Arbitrage Product Sourcing Specialist

Independent Contractor – CPT-11390 Amazon Online Arbitrage Product Sourcing Specialist/e-Commerce VA/Junior-Advanced Level (Remote).

Overview

20four7VA is seeking offshore independent contractors to deliver remote services to clients worldwide, with a primary focus on developed markets such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.

A U.S.-based Amazon seller is seeking an experienced Amazon Online Arbitrage Product Sourcing Specialist to identify and fully vet profitable resale opportunities for Amazon US.

This is judgment-based product sourcing, not basic data entry. The VA must understand how to evaluate profitability, sales velocity, competition, Buy Box behavior, price history, category restrictions, IP risk, and realistic sourcing opportunities before recommending a product.

The VA will use SellerAmp (SAS) and Keepa as the primary research tools and document all analysis within a shared Google Sheet. The VA will research and recommend opportunities only; the client retains full control over purchasing and Amazon Seller Central.

The objective of each engagement is to assist the client in improving business efficiency, enhancing service delivery, or supporting operational functions through high-quality, task-specific services rendered by a qualified contractor.

Scope of Services

Contractors will be required to provide services that align with the following client tasks:

Product Sourcing

• Find profitable online arbitrage products for resale on Amazon US

• Use SellerAmp Advanced Search, reverse sourcing, and storefront sourcing

• Use Keepa to validate pricing, demand, and Buy Box history

• Prioritize quality of leads over raw volume

• Target approximately three fully vetted product opportunities per day once ramped

Profitability Analysis

• Calculate buy cost, Amazon referral fees, FBA fees, net profit, and ROI

• Show complete calculations for each recommended product

• Evaluate whether current margins remain viable at normalized selling prices

• Calculate projected ROI if price returns to the 90-day average

Demand & Competition Analysis

• Review sales rank and historical rank trends

• Assess estimated monthly sales

• Analyze seller count and recent seller additions

• Evaluate seller concentration

• Review Buy Box ownership, stability, and competition

Keepa Analysis

• Read and interpret 90-day price history

• Determine whether current pricing is normal or a temporary dip

• Review Buy Box history and price stability

• Identify unusual price movement or risk

• Use historical data to support sourcing recommendations

Risk & Gating Review

• Identify potential intellectual property risk

• Flag hazmat restrictions

• Identify category or brand gating

• Assess whether gated brands are realistically ungateable

• Flag products with excessive risk before recommendation

Documentation

• Log every vetted product into a shared Google Sheet

• Include complete profit and ROI calculations

• Include source links

• Document demand, competition, Buy Box, pricing, and risk findings

• Clearly explain why a product is or is not recommended

Each engagement is based on a defined scope of work and is governed by an independent contractor agreement. Services must be performed professionally, with adherence to any timelines, guidelines, and deliverables agreed upon in writing.
