Fulfillment and LogisticsBars of soap in unique packaging with shapes cut out of the boxEngineering Packaging That Wins: A Founder’s Perspective on Designing for D2C, Amazon, and Retail

I’ve seen packaging make or break brands. Not just the aesthetics, but also the boring stuff like logistics. In this world, packaging is more than a box. It’s infrastructure. When I started working with fast-growing brands, I quickly learned that packaging touches everything: your unit economics, fulfillment throughput, conversion rates, and even how buyers judge your professionalism. Yet far too many brands treat it like a one-time design project. They come up with something pretty and then try to use it everywhere. (That doesn’t work.) D2C, Amazon FBA, and club/retail channels are entirely different operating environments. Each has its own rules,...

AmazonA truck full of boxes some of which sealed with Amazon Prime tapeWalmart Opens to Amazon MCF: What This Means for Marketplace Sellers

If you’re an Amazon seller sitting on FBA inventory, wake up: Walmart just quietly greenlit a game-changer that cracks open its marketplace to Amazon’s infrastructure. As of now, you can use Amazon MCF (Multi-Channel Fulfillment) to fulfill Walmart orders. That’s right: the same inventory you’re already housing with Amazon can now flow to Walmart customers. This used to get you suspended. Now it’s a strategic edge. But before you sprint into this with blinders on, let’s break it down like an operator. The Rules of Engagement Walmart’s not letting sellers run completely wild with MCF. Here are some guidelines you’ll still...

AmazonTwo rows of delivery trucks ready to ship packagesAvoid Amazon Placement Fees and Speed Up FBA Receiving with MyFBAPrep

Amazon’s Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) program can streamline your eCommerce logistics, but not without hidden costs and bottlenecks. One of the biggest pain points for sellers is inbound placement fees and long check-in delays. If you’ve ever paid $2 per unit in “placement fees,” shipped to five different FCs for one ASIN, or watched sellable inventory sit for three weeks in a parking lot, you know how painful FBA inbounds can be. At MyFBAPrep, we’ve engineered a logistics solution that eliminates these fees while cutting average Amazon check-in times to 24 hours. Here’s how we do it, and how your business...
