JOB OVERVIEW

About the Position

I am looking for a detail-oriented Virtual Assistant to help build and improve my Amazon supplier database.

I already have a spreadsheet containing 8,000+ legitimate online retailers, wholesalers, distributors, and brands.

Your primary responsibility is NOT to source products. Your job is to carefully go through this database, identify the highest-quality suppliers, organize the information, and continuously improve the supplier list so my sourcing team can work more efficiently.

This is a long-term position for someone who enjoys research, organization, and Amazon FBA.
Responsibilities

Your responsibilities include:

* Browse through my database of 8,000+ suppliers
* Visit each supplier’s website
* Identify which suppliers have the highest sourcing potential
* Rate suppliers (A, B, or C)
* Categorize suppliers as:
* Online Arbitrage
* Wholesale
* Distributor
* Brand
* Liquidation
* Remove duplicate suppliers
* Remove inactive or broken websites
* Verify supplier information
* Add detailed notes for each supplier
* Find and record:
* Clearance sections
* Coupon opportunities
* Promo codes
* Cashback opportunities
* Tax-exempt availability
* Free shipping thresholds
* Brand restrictions
* MAP pricing (if applicable)
* Flag the suppliers that should be prioritized by the sourcing team
* Add new high-quality suppliers you discover during your research
* Continuously improve and maintain the supplier database
