You wouldn’t normally think of Twitter (now X) as a place to hunt down Amazon sellers.
LinkedIn is the usual go-to for B2B outreach. Facebook groups are packed with sellers too. Even Reddit and Discord have active eCom discussions.
But here’s the quiet truth:
Twitter is where the most transparent, active Amazon sellers hang out—and share things they won’t post anywhere else.
It’s where they brag about their sales.
Complain about a hijacked listing.
Ask about PPC bid strategies.
Or break down their experience launching a new product.
Many are building their brands in public—and that’s what makes Twitter a goldmine for agencies, SaaS founders, consultants, and service providers.
Most Amazon sellers don’t have huge teams.
Many are solo operators, or lean partnerships. And that means the person tweeting is likely the owner, the decision-maker, or someone closely involved in daily operations.
No gatekeepers.
You can reply, engage, DM, and build a connection without a form fill or cold email.
That alone makes Twitter one of the most underutilized lead-gen channels in the eCommerce world.
If you search blindly on Twitter, you’ll drown in noise.
But with the right keywords and hashtags, you can surface real sellers, fast.
Try searching:
These are the tags many sellers use when they talk about product launches, sales milestones, supplier issues, or ad wins.
A quick search for #FBATwitter right now reveals posts like:
Those aren’t agencies or gurus. They’re actual sellers.
Don’t stop at hashtags.
Use Twitter’s advanced search to filter posts based on:
Here’s a simple Boolean search that works well:
“FBA” OR “Amazon seller” OR “Private label” -from:amazon -filter:retweets
It filters out noise and focuses on fresh, original content from sellers.
A goldmine most people ignore: Twitter bios.
Many Amazon sellers describe themselves right in their bio:
You can surface these bios using tools like:
Just input a keyword like “FBA seller” and you’ll get a list of accounts that match.
Twitter Lists are often overlooked, but they’re powerful.
Many creators and influencers maintain public Lists like:
You can find them by Googling:
site:twitter.com/*/lists/ Amazon FBA
Or use Twitter’s native List search bar.
Once you find a List with 30–100 members who are all sellers, subscribe, scan, and start tracking who’s active.
Also: Twitter/X Communities are a growing trend.
Communities like “FBA Twitter” or “Ecom Growth” are full of people discussing strategies, challenges, and tools.
These are not as noisy as Reddit or Facebook groups.
They’re more focused and often include mid-level to advanced sellers—not just beginners.
You don’t need to find every seller from scratch.
Let influencers in the Amazon and eCommerce space do the heavy lifting.
People like:
When they post a viral thread like:
“How I scaled my Amazon brand to $100k/month in 8 months”
You’ll see hundreds of comments and retweets—and many of those users are other Amazon sellers replying with:
Every reply is a potential seller.
Every like is a lead.
Scan the replies. Click into the accounts. Look for bio indicators, Amazon screenshots, or product links.
Not every account that says “FBA” is active.
Some are ghost profiles. Others are just trying to sell courses or build audiences.
Here’s how to spot the real ones:
Your goal is to build a clean, qualified list of seller accounts, not influencer wannabes.
Once you’ve got 20, 50, or 100 Twitter profiles saved, you need structure.
Use a spreadsheet or Airtable to track:
Also consider tagging them by:
This gives you a clear picture of who to reach out to first—and with what kind of offer or content.
So, you’ve found them.
Twitter bios. Threads. Lists.
You now have dozens—or even hundreds—of Amazon sellers in front of you.
But now comes the real challenge:
How do you actually start a conversation without being ignored, blocked, or reported?
Here’s what doesn’t work:
These are cold, generic, and instantly forgettable.
What works on Twitter is relationship-first outreach.
Twitter is fast and personal. You’re not emailing. You’re not LinkedIn messaging. You’re talking in someone’s DMS, often from their phone.
So keep it real. Here’s a format that consistently works:
“Hey [Name], saw your post about running out of stock during Prime Day—been there. We work with a few supplement sellers and help avoid exactly that with better forecasting tools. Just wanted to say your post was spot-on.”
There’s no hard pitch.
No “schedule a demo” link.
Just relevance + value + acknowledgment.
Start with something they said. Not what you’re selling.
If you just found a promising seller, don’t immediately DM them.
Engage with their content first.
Like a few tweets. Leave a comment that adds value. Maybe quote-tweet their post with your insight.
Example:
Seller tweets: “Getting crushed on PPC this week. TACoS up to 28% 😩”
You reply: “That’s brutal—have you tried segmenting auto campaigns by match type? Saw a big drop when we did that.”
You’re now on their radar—before you even say a word in DMs.
That way, when you do message them, you’re not a stranger anymore. You’re someone who understands their pain point.
Here are a few outreach styles we’ve seen perform well:
Offer something useful upfront—no strings attached.
“I noticed you sell in the pet category. We just published a deep dive on what’s working in Q3 for pet products—happy to send the link if you’re interested?”
This leads to better open rates and a smoother path to connection.
Invite the seller to engage, rather than assuming they’re open to it.
“Would it be cool if I shared a quick idea we used to cut ACoS for a similar product line?”
It’s simple, respectful, and doesn’t feel invasive.
If you saw them comment on or engage with a mutual connection:
“Hey [Name], I saw you chatting with [Mutual Follow] about brand registry headaches. We’ve dealt with that a lot—mind if I share a resource?”
Now it feels warm, not cold.
All the steps above work.
You can absolutely find real Amazon sellers manually on Twitter using:
But it’s slow. Repetitive. And prone to errors.
That’s where Seller Contacts comes in.
We’ve already done the work for you.
Our platform gives you direct access to verified Amazon sellers, including:
So instead of searching for hours, you can filter by “active Twitter sellers,” export a list, and start conversations instantly—based on real signals like recent tweets, product launches, or PPC struggles.
If you’re doing this at scale, track:
A basic spreadsheet works. Tools like Clay, Tweet Hunter, or even Apollo.io can help systematize outreach if needed.
But don’t over-automate.
Twitter is a personal platform.
People respond to people—not bots.
Is Twitter better than LinkedIn for finding sellers?
For raw data and filtering, LinkedIn is great. But Twitter gives you access to real-time thoughts, rants, wins, and challenges—which means you can tailor your outreach to what sellers are actually dealing with today.
How do I avoid looking like a spammer in DMs?
Don’t pitch cold. Engage with their content first. Then message with value, context, and no links on first contact.
Can I use AI or automation to scale this?
Yes, but carefully. Tools like Tweet Hunter or Phantombuster can help, but always review before sending. Twitter is unforgiving if users report spammy behavior.
What if I don’t have time to do this manually?
That’s where Seller Contacts helps. You get pre-vetted, contactable Amazon sellers, including their social data—so you don’t have to search manually.
