Want more control over your FBA business? Learn how to expand from Amazon to Shopify with step-by-step guidance from Zach Gresham—so you can grow your brand, keep more profits, and stay in charge.
Selling on Amazon is great until it’s not.
You get sales, yes—but:
- You pay high fees
- You don’t control your customer experience
- You’re stuck following Amazon’s ever-changing rules
If you want more freedom, more profit, and more control over your brand, Shopify is the way to go.
In this helpful video, Amazon expert Zach Gresham explains precisely how to move your Amazon business onto Shopify—without losing your mind (or your profits).
Let’s break it down.
Why Add Shopify to Your Business?
Amazon is a vast marketplace, but it has its limitations.
Shopify gives you:
✅ Full control over your website and branding
✅ Direct access to your customers (so you can build loyalty)
✅ Higher profit margins (fewer fees!)
With Shopify, you’re not just a seller—you’re a business owner.
How to Start Selling on Shopify (Even If You’re New)
1. Set Up a Simple, Clean Website
Don’t overthink it. Your site should be:
- Easy to navigate
- Fast on mobile
- Clear about what you sell and why it’s awesome
Use your best Amazon images and descriptions—but improve them. Make your brand feel more “you.”
2. Connect Your Inventory
You don’t need a warehouse. You can still use Amazon to ship your Shopify orders through a service called Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF).
Or, you can try:
- Shopify Fulfillment Network
- A 3rd-party fulfillment company (3PL)
Utilize tools like Sellbrite or Zonify to sync your inventory, ensuring you don’t oversell.
3. Start Marketing
Shopify lacks the built-in traffic that Amazon has. So you’ll need to bring people to your site using:
- Facebook or Google ads
- Influencer shoutouts
- Email marketing
- Blog posts and SEO (so you show up on Google)
It’s a little more work, but the rewards are bigger.
Start Small, Then Grow
Zach Gresham recommends:
- Launch with just 1 or 2 of your best-selling products
- Test your website and ads
- Once you start seeing steady sales, consider investing more in ads and adding more products.

⚠️ Skipping legal/tax stuff. Set up your store properly to avoid issues later.
Amazon is great for getting started. However, if you want a genuine brand, a loyal customer base, and increased profits, Shopify is the next step.
