Waching daily Aug 28 2018

My name is Mike Renick. I'm a senior broker, the team lead with Team Renick

Real Estate Services, part of that great Keller Williams on the Water Sarasota

family serving the west coast of Florida. Four Mondays out of the month, and

generally, that includes the whole month. Every once in a while there's a fifth, but

four Mondays out of the month, it's my goal to bring you the latest market

statistics and share with you how, whether you're a buyer or seller, how you

can leverage those for yourself. As the market changes, it's imperative that we

use the latest data and make the most of it no matter what side of

the transaction we're on. You notice there's no professional photography, no

professional videographers. It's speaking from the heart with raw

and true and unedited data because that's the way the market should be told in my

mind. I'll go through some information and then I'll bring the charts up. As we

use Facebook Live and learn more about the technology, the videos seem to go

farther with less charts being shown so we'll bring them in in just a couple of

minutes. But the first Monday of every month we're gonna talk about the sales,

what's the trend, up or down, what does that mean to you. Second Monday, as

important, we're gonna talk about prices. There's four factors over the four weeks.

The third Monday, last week we talked about inventory and we saw in some areas

there are fluctuations going on in terms of inventory right now. That impacts each

of us. What's interesting when we get into today and we talk about how long it

takes to get property sold, we see a lot less fluctuation, so we'll talk more

about that in a minute. But as we go forward, it's very simply the way this is

calculated. If you look at the properties that are sold in the month, you calculate

how long they are on the market, and you compute an average. So that's the

statistics we're going to look at going forward. And there's some interesting

things when you look at all four factors: price, sales, inventory, and then how many

days on the market, how long is it taking to get things sold. So let me try to

bring the charts up here and then all of this will go back out on Facebook and

and we'll publish this a little bit more formally. But let me

bring them in right now and let's go to this mode here and we'll go

that way. So when we look in Sarasota County, we see that the days on the

market are staying consistent. 79 for the month of July.

81 last month, 80. So, consistency in the county of Sarasota. One of the things of

note is that the selling price percent of listing price is holding firm in the

low 90 percents. We're seeing all the way back from beginning of this year at 94

all the way to 92. If we jump over to Manatee County we see a little jump that

occurred in May, it fell in June, and back up a little bit in July. Nothing

significant though. So we're holding firm in the 70s, the high 70s in terms of days

on the market. Listing price, selling price vs. listing price is about 93

percent. When we look at the cities we're seeing something different. Longboat Key,

and this is where we saw last week, in terms of the inventory fluctuations, the

days on the market are changing. So we've seen since the beginning of the year of

98 up to 116 in February. March was 114. We're at 136 right now so we're seeing,

and we're going to need to watch this closer so that we can leverage that,

because there's too much variation right now from month to month.

We see also that the selling price as a percent of the listing price is down to

86 percent. That's a little bit troubling there, as a buyer or a seller though we

can leverage this, it's having the information. We jump down or jump up to

Holmes Beach and Bradenton Beach. We see variation there also in terms of its

taking 132 days last month in July, a hundred days, approximately, a little over

in June, 136 in May ,so a lot of variation in the two cities that are located on

the islands right now. 93 percent, the actual sold price vs. asking

price. Siesta Key, a little bit more stability down on Siesta Key.

We're seeing 79 days on the market. It's consistently in the high 70s, very low 80s.

So a lot more stability there in terms of how long it takes to get something

sold. 92 percent is the sold price as a percent of listing price for last month. Jump

down to Venice, we see variability there. 79 days in July,

86 last month, but 69 and 62 in the two prior months so variability. We want

to keep an eye on this and leverage it. 93 percent for the sold price vs.

asking price. In the city of Sarasota, more stability; it's in the high 70s. 78

days of the market last month. 92 percent ratio sold price vs. asking price. And

when we look into Bradenton, we see that things that are on the market a lot less.

65 days holding steady. May was a unique month, but we're holding steady in

the mid to lower 60s. A 95 percent of sales price vs. asking price. So

let me bring this down and wrap up with a summary with my thoughts. Days on the

market are important to a seller to set expectations in terms of their

partnership with their real estate agent. If we want to beat the days on the

market we have to do it with other factors: aggressive marketing, unique

marketing, maybe niche marketing, make sure the global is covered, price has to

be something we talk about, and so on. When you're a buyer and you're deciding

whether to move fast or move slow that metric can be a big help to us. Also when

we see that the average is 80 days on the market and this particular home's been on

the market for a hundred and twenty, that's something we can leverage in

negotiations. So it's important to have this information at our fingertips. Now I

can provide this all the way down to a homeowners' association, a subdivision

level, or a condo association and we're happy to do that. We're getting many

requests from folks that are seeing these videos either live or the

recording and we're happy to pull that information

together. So reach out. My personal cell is up there it's 941-400-8735.

My email is mike@teamrenick.com and my

website is michaelrenick.com. We're happy to

provide this information. Even if you're not currently ready to buy or sell and

you're just looking to get questions answered we want to be the team that

gets those answers for you; no pressure, no push. As we move forward, Labor Day

weekend is upon us. Next Monday, I will be back. We'll be looking at sales numbers

at that time. So we will do a broadcast on Labor Day. I believe it's important to

get this information in your hands when you need it. So I want to thank everybody

who is either currently watching or will watch the recording. I hope this

information is helpful. We're seeing some instability in certain areas in terms of

how much inventory's out there, how long it's taking to get it sold, but prices

aren't changing yet that's the next thing that may happen and we want to

keep an eye on that. Again if you have any questions, reach out. I hope this is

the best Monday ever and the week in front of you is just super

outstanding. Thanks everyone! Take care.

How to Send a Shipment to Amazon FBA | Step by Step Tutorial - Duration: 16:10.

What is going on everyone?! In today's video, as promised, I'll be showing you a

step-by-step tutorial on how to create a shipment plans straight from your Amazon

Seller Central account. I know there are a lot of new sellers out there who are

confused about creating a shipment plan. So, I wanted to do a step-by-step

tutorial on how I create a shipment plan and how I can simplify everything for

you. Creating a shipment plan is actually

really easy after you do it a few times. There are some things that are a little

confusing so I will walk you through this step by step once we dive into my

computer. Now, shipping by air and shipping by sea is both about the same,

when you are creating a shipment plan inside your Seller Central account. A lot

of people think this is completely different, but I'll show you easily how

to do this and how you can understand it better. Let's dive into my computer right

now! Alright guys, we're now inside of my computer and I will show you exactly

step-by-step how to create a shipment plan. If you are shipping by air or if

you're shipping by sea, you would want to watch this video until the very end.

Let's get started. So, I am actually going to create a real shipment plan because I

do have products from China right now that are going to the Amazon warehouse.

So, what you would do is just find your product and click on Send/Replenish

Inventory. After that you will see this page come up where you will be creating

your first shipment plan. Now, we are creating a new shipment plan because we

are not adding to an existing shipment plan. You want to only use existing

shipment plan, if you still have a shipment plan that's open, and you have

more products to send to that shipment plan. But, we're not going to do that

today, we're starting out fresh. Ship From address, I always use my freight

forwarder's Ship From address because there are ways now where sellers can

find out who your supplier is. So, shipping address from, this from address

is actually not important. You can put your own address, you can put your

neighbor's address, I don't recommend that but you can put whatever

address is relevant to your product, and that's fine. Amazon does not need to know

exactly where it is from. I always put my freight forwarder's address

because he takes care of everything for me.

Okay, so Packing Type, I want to suggest you guys to always use Individual

Products because for Case-Packed Products, there is a limit of 250 units, I

believe, and it's just a lot more restricted. There's some rules that you

have to follow here, and again, it's only 250 units that you are allowed in one

carton. However, Individual Products, you can ship like 700 units. But, it has to be

within the Amazon's shipping requirements, the dimensions, and I'll talk about that

in another video. But, I suggest using this, it's just a lot easier so just

ignore whatever it says here. It's basically explains to you what

Case Packed is and what Individual Products is. You can select Individual,

even if your supplier is doing this, packing up your products for

you. So, we're just going to go with that. And then it brings me up to this page

where my garlic press is. I am shipping 1500 units, so I'm gonna put that

in there. Basically, this is just saying what the SKU is, what the product name is,

condition is new obviously, and we're going to press Continue. The next page is

basically showing you, it's asking you if you need any packaging and prep

materials. Do you need Amazon to put on labels for you? Do you need them to put

on choking hazards? Like whatever it is that you want them to prep, whichever

service you want. You would do it here and it will show you the prep cost here.

However, I strongly suggest you guys to talk to your suppliers to put on the

labels for you, it is much cheaper and you may as well since they're already

making your product, right? You don't want to do this

unless something went wrong and you want Amazon to do something for you

specifically. It's not cheap, so again, I suggest you to talk to your supplier to

slap on any FNSKUs or UPC barcodes, whatever it is. So, I'm going to bypass

this because I have my supplier that already put on codes for me. Then the

next page here, it's just asking you who is labeling this. So, we are going to

click Merchant because as I just mentioned, we are getting our supplier to

help us with the labels. If you want Amazon to help you with the labels, then

you click on Amazon. Now, again, I don't suggest this, as you can see I have 1500

units, and they are charging me $300 just the labels. So, again you guys, talk to your

supplier to do it for you. So now, I'm going to click on Continue. Oh, I should

mention though, if you need your supplier to help you put on the labels or if you

are doing this manually at home by yourself, which I know some sellers do as

newbie sellers because they want to get the inventory shipped to your own house

and then you or to label it yourself. If you ever come to that, then this is where

you would actually print the labels yourself. So, just make sure that you have

a printer that has these label requirements here, their sizing and

whatnot, and then you will just print your labels. But again, I'm getting my

supplier to do this and I suggest you do as well. So, we are just going to ignore

this, click on Continue. And you can see here my prep fees are $0, my label fees

are $0, so that is awesome! Okay, so I'm renaming my shipment plan here to "garlic

press shipment 3" because this is my third shipment that is going to Amazon

for this specific product. Now, it's saying that all my units are going to

Dallas, Texas. Dallas, Texas is the main Amazon FBA warehouse. If you are a new

seller you may your shipments split up between a few

warehouses and that's completely fine. I can almost guarantee you guys that after

you do a few shipments, all your inventory will start going to Texas. I

don't even remember the last time my shipments got split up, but if you do

want your products to go to one warehouse, for whatever reason, and it's

still splitting it up, you can actually call Amazon tell them to ship it to one

specific warehouse. However, that does charge you money. So again, if you are

doing this long term then just patiently wait and I'm sure Amazon will start

sending all your inventory to one specific warehouse. So I'm going to

approve this shipment, it's ready to go, and here it is! So View Shipments, I have

my shipment name here, my shipment ID, the number of SKUs is one because we're only

shipping my garlic press number of units, and I'm going to click on Work On

Shipment. Now, you can download the SKU list, I don't see a point because you

only have one, or view shipment contents and that will just bring up on the

bottom what it is that you're shipping. So, we're gonna Work On Shipment.

Okay, so Prepare Shipment, so the shipment status here is working, it means we're

just working on it. Everything looks good. I'm just going to scroll down. Okay, so we

as sellers, experienced sellers, even for myself, I always use Small Parcel

Delivery. This basically means that I'm not going on pallets and it's not a huge

truck load. This is, if you are a really big seller, and you're shipping thousands

and thousands, tens of thousands of units, that are over 150 pounds. So, we're not

going to do this today, we're only going to use Small Parcel Delivery.

And I want to talk about shipping carrier for a moment. So, if you guys are

shipping from China to the Amazon warehouse, you do not use Amazon

partner carriers. Amazon partner carriers are only for sellers who live in the US

and they got their products shipped to their US address, and now they want to

ship it to Amazon by themselves, or if their supplier is based out of the US

and they're using the partner carriers to ship to Amazon warehouse using UPS or

FedEx. This, again is only for US sellers, okay? This is only for US sellers

who live in the US and they are responsible for shipping it to the

Amazon warehouse themselves, or their US supplier is doing it. Now, if our

supplier's in China, like the most of us, we are going to use other carriers. You

can use other, or if you're using any of these, I always use other because again

my freight forwarder takes care of everything. Even if he uses FedEx or DHL,

it does not matter. Always click on other if you have a freight forwarder or someone

who is helping you bring in your products to the warehouse. If you are

using your supplier, which in a previous video I suggested you not to because

they would charge you more, and the process is a lot more annoying, in my

opinion. You can use DHL, or FedEx, or whatever they're using, but again, as

professional sellers, we want a freight forwarder who can help us with this. So, I

clicked on other. Shipment Packing, so this is asking us how will this shipment

be packed? We are going in multiple boxes. Well, I'm going in multiple boxes. And,

right here it will show you exactly how many units per box. So, in this box, you

put how many units are in one carton. So, I actually have to refer back to what my...

how my supplier is packing it. However, I am going to do an example for you guys.

So, let's just say, I have 100 units, and the number of boxes, which is cartons,

the shipping term is cartons, I have 15 cartons. So, my total quantity here should

match my shipment quantity, okay? So, units per box, number of boxes, and there's 1500

total. Box weight, we're just going to put 20 pounds, and let's just say my

dimensions are 10 by 20 by 10. Again, for the box dimensions, you want to Google

"Amazon shipping requirements" to see the dimensions. I believe their dimensions,

you cannot exceed over 25 inches on either side. So, I'm good here. And, I also

want to tell you guys that you do not need the same amount of units per box.

You can add another box configuration, and let's just say, that I have 14 here.

But then this box has like 50, and I have one of those. And then this box has like

50, and I have one of those. You can see here, if I add up all these numbers, and I

start putting in my weight - just gonna randomly put in numbers. You can see that

you don't have to have exactly the same amount of units per box. You can

actually add another box configuration and, you know, ship in like 99, and then 44,

and then whatever it is. So, I just wanted to make clear of that because I see a

lot of sellers saying that you need an even amount of numbers of units. That is

not true. Okay, you can do that here. Okay, we're just gonna go down here, and then

we're gonna have to hit confirm here. So, I'm just gonna hit confirm. All right,

so the last part here. So, you have requested to change the number of boxes

for your shipment, that's because I changed these. Be aware that when

changing the number of boxes in your shipment you're required to reprint

labels to ensure each box has a unique

label. So, it's basically just saying, okay I redid my boxes up here. So it's saying

I have to print new box labels. So every time you change your units up here and

number of boxes, just make sure you reprint your labels because the warehouse

has to know exactly how many units are in each carton. Okay, so that's done! Okay,

once I have this done, all you do is click Print Box Labels, and you'll get a

PDF that'll pop up with all your box labels, and you just send that to your supplier

or your freight forwarder. I send it to my freight forwarder because he helps me put on

the shipping labels, and he'll just stick one label on each carton, and that's it!

He'll ship it to the Amazon warehouse. And then once it lands into the Amazon

warehouse, they will scan each box and then everything will be in my inventory.

So, I'm not going to click on Complete Shipment here because, again, these were

just numbers that I just made up, but I will fix these for my real shipment plan,

and that's pretty much it you guys! It's really easy to do a shipment plan. And if

you are shipping by sea, it is exactly the same way, okay? It is exactly how we

set it up, the only thing I want to mention that, if you are shipping by sea,

your freight forwarder or your supplier may ask for a shipment ID because they

have to make an appointment with the Amazon warehouse. So, what do I mean by

shipment ID? That is when you're done, there will be a shipment ID up here,

right up here, and just give them that ID and basically they will call Amazon to

book an appointment for your products to get sent to the warehouse. So that is it.

You do not need the Amazon carrier labels, like I mentioned above, you only

print the FBA labels. Box labels are FBA labels. Anyways, you guys if you have any

questions, please comment below. I hope you found this video

easy for you to understand, and to do, and complete yourself. If you do anything

wrong, I do want to suggest, you can actually

go back in and fix your shipment after you're done. So don't worry about that,

it's not the end of the world. But do make sure that you reprint labels,

reprint your box labels every time you were to make a revision after you click

on Complete Shipment. You want to reprint your labels if you are to make any

changes so everything is sent to the Amazon warehouse accurately. Alright guys,

thank you so much for watching. Give this video a thumbs up if you liked it, and

please subscribe to my channel, I really thank you if you do, and I'll see you

guys next time!
