Along with display all of the data, you can also click on some of the data points to get historical data. This is will give you a better understanding of the overall market and not just one days data…

It will also give you other data points but everything above is going to be the most important

The chrome extension will also load the data from more than just the search results of a specific keyword

Pro vs Lite Chrome Extensions

The Lite version will give you all the functionality and data you need to properly do your product research. It costs $97 but is a one time fee which is nice so you don’t have to continually pay for it month after month

The Pro version will give you everything the comes along with the lite as well as :

• Product Opportunity Score
• Web App Advanced Integration – the ability to add products to the web app from the extension
• Profit Calculator
• FBA Fee Estimator

The Pro version comes in at $197 so, if you’re strapped for cash, you can definitely get away with the lite version. There are plenty of free tools to estimate the profit and fees. Here’s a list of the Top 8 FBA Fee Calculators

Overview

Both the pro and lite chrome extensions will help you QUICKLY look into the market or niche of a potential product. The ability to see the estimated sales, how they are spread out between products, and the number of reviews is not only a time saver but can also help you determine a good opportunity or not

Jungle Scout Web App

The web app has four main sections that lets you filter through Amazon to pull back products that fit your criteria and further research them. The ability to search Amazon in a strategic way can give you product opportunities in minutes

Product Database

This is where the Jungle Scout really shines. You can set the web app to only show you products that fit your ideal criteria when doing product research. It will greatly decrease the time you spend finding a product to sell and show you some that you have never even heard of before…

The main sections you can set up are :

• Marketplace – USA, Mexico, United Kingdom, and more
• Categories – Home & Kitchen, Sports & Outdoors, etc…
• Product Size Tier – Standard or Oversize
• Seller – FBA, FBM, or Amazon
• Filters – price, estimated sales, number of reviews and more. With the ability to set minimums and maximums
• Include or Exclude Keywords

Product Tracker

Once you find potential products to sell, you can then add them to the product tracker to further research the market. It will let you track the sales based on the BSR or it will monitor the inventory level if the seller has less than 1000 units in stock

Make sure to back the sales history all the way back to 60 days to give you the most data to make your decision with…

The product tracker will give you the average daily data for the following :

• Price
• BSR – Best Sellers Rank
• Daily Units Sold
• Daily Revenue

Along with the daily averages, it gives you a chart breaking down the sales and inventory of the past two months

Niche Hunter

The niche hunter is very similar to the product database BUT will bring back entire “niches” instead of single products. This can help uncover products that may not fit your exact criteria that are still good opportunities

You can filter through different niches with the following filters on a scale of 1 – 100 :

• Average Units Sold
• Average Price
• Opportunity Score
• Competition
• LQS – listing quality score
• Word Count

Keyword Scout ( Beta )

The Jungle Scout Keyword Scout is the latest update to the web app and is currently in BETA. You can look at the search volume of specific keywords or search with your competitors ASINs to see their keywords…

The keyword tool will pull back the following data :

• Exact Match Search Volume
• Broad Match Search Volume
• Recommended Giveaway – what Jungle Scout estimates you should “giveaway” every day to rank against your competition. Or in other words, the sales velocity of the other products in the market or niche
• Dominant Category – top-level category. For example, “Office Supplies”
• Suggest HSA Bid- what you could expect to pay per click for Headline Search Ads for that specific keyword

Make sure to look at the keywords and determine how relevant they are to your product!

Overview

If you are looking into the Jungle Scout Web App or the Chrome Extension I definitely recommend! If it helps you find one product it will pay for itself along with saving a great deal of time.

On the other hand, if it helps you stay away from a bad product it will totally be worth it as well
