SmartScout Seller Map

The ‘Seller Map’ tab shows us the top 1000 marketplace sellers. Furthermore, we can go into their details, the brands they sell, their revenue and their listed ASINs.

For some, this geolocation can be useful to find possible suppliers or to target the sellers themselves for marketing purposes.

SmartScout Seller Search

Onto the next tool called ‘Seller Search’, we are shown a more seller-focused array of information. We can make use of different filters to output data about the brands being sold by each seller, their number of ASINs, location, main category and revenue.

If we deep digger, we can find more useful data as the brand percentage sold by a specific seller which would indicate the type of relationship they have going on.

Looking up brands

There’s also a whole tab dedicated to brands where we can check their performance across marketplaces by reviewing their montly revenue, number of sellers, total product count or their average review rating.

Sub-categories

Private label sellers will find interesting the subcategories analysis tab. If trying to find a niche suitable for a new product launch, this tool displays an estimate montly revenue for each subcategory as well as their Amazon revenue share and number of sellers, among other metrics. This way we can get a grasp of our opportunities within a certain niche.

Traffic Graph

With this tool we are able to see which items are frequently bought together, thus giving us the ability to strategically target them with ads in case we are thinking of competing with a product.

Of course, this can be also used to come up with complementary products to sell that you think buyers will find interesting.

Ad Spy

Finally, the Ad Spy feature allows us to find out what search terms and keywords are being used by those top sellers.

It displays where the interest of those big sellers is, and what path and patterns we should adapt to when competing with them.

Other Smartscout features

They provide us with a ‘Products’ tab too, which reveals in detail ASINs data just as the rest of the tools.

A ‘Sales Estimator’ will give us a rough number of monthly sales when we introduce a category and a ‘Best Sellers’ Rank’.

Within the suite, we’ve got the ‘Suppliers‘ tab helping us get to the sourcing information of a product.

Lastly, they offer us a ‘UPC Scanner’ and an ‘FBA Calculator’, the latter one indicating us what modifications we need to do if we want to decrease our FBA fees.

Pricing

The monthly cost of Smartscout starts at $97 for most wholesale features and $187 for those in need of private label FBA functionalities (as seen in the chart above). Although, if a yearly billing is selected then you would be saving 20% off the total amount.
