Amazon Sellers Special :The Future of AI and Software Innovation   Host: Danny McMillan   Guest: Max Sinclair   In this episode of Seller Sessions, host Danny McMillan welcomes back Max Sinclair to discuss the evolving role of AI in software development and its impact on the Amazon ecosystem. Fresh from the Seller Sessions Live conference, Danny and Max share real-world insights on the pace of innovation and what's next for the industry.     Key Takeaways   The Commoditization of Software:     Base models like OpenAI’s GPT and Claude are improving rapidly, threatening the traditional software model.       Max highlights the need for vertical integration—adding proprietary data and API connections to general models to offer unique value.       No-code tools are becoming powerful enablers, allowing non-technical entrepreneurs to build viable businesses quickly.     Prompting vs. Problem Solving:     Danny argues that perfect prompts aren’t essential—creative questioning and clear thinking deliver better outcomes.       Max shares OpenAI's stance: prompt engineering is seen as a flaw; future models will understand context intuitively without complex prompting.     Freemium and Democratization:     Max’s company is transitioning to a freemium model, offering free AI-powered audits for Amazon sellers and charging for deeper features.       This move aims to lower barriers for users, encouraging wider AI adoption in e-commerce without heavy upfront costs.     Culture of Rapid Innovation:     Max emphasizes a two-week innovation cycle: new ideas are prioritized bi-weekly to stay ahead of the rapid changes in AI.       Their advantage lies in domain expertise, proprietary datasets, and a patented technology stack.     AI and the Future Workforce:     AI will inevitably replace some traditional roles, but also create massive opportunities for entrepreneurs and early adopters.       Danny discusses how he’s reorganizing his teams, integrating AI workflows to remove bottlenecks and scale efficiently.       What’s Coming Next     Danny teases an upcoming episode on autonomous AI browsers that could completely reshape customer journeys on platforms like Amazon.       Both agree: adapting quickly is the only way forward in the rapidly shifting AI landscape.       Summary:   This conversation is a roadmap for sellers, founders, and marketers who want to future-proof their businesses. The consensus: embrace AI now or risk being left behind.

In this high-impact episode of Seller Sessions, Danny McMillan is joined by Dorian Gorski for a no-fluff exploration of how AI is shifting the Amazon ecosystem. The conversation orbits around a powerful new tool called "Manus" — an AI-driven platform built to go beyond surface-level product research and tap into rich demographic insights, customer motivations, and actionable listing data.

🧠 Understanding Buyer Psychology with AI

  • Dorian breaks down how true conversion hinges on triggering emotional responses rooted in a deep understanding of demographics.
  • By using Manus, sellers can uncover why people buy, whether for joint pain or inflammation, and then translate that into targeted creatives and copy.
  • “Your time is not free,” Danny reminds listeners. Cutting corners with free tools may cost more in the long run than investing in powerful, scalable AI.

🔍 From Surface-Level Summaries to Data-Driven Strategy

  • Traditional AI like GPT offers general summaries, but Manus dives into forum scraping, sentiment analysis, and customer behavior mapping.
  • Example: Discovering that most buyers are 45+ year-old women looking for joint relief allows precise targeting — from imagery to ad copy.

💡 AI as a Business Solution, Not Just a Listing Tool

  • Danny emphasizes: “Don’t waste your time optimizing listings alone. Solve bigger problems.”
  • AI can generate cash flow models, product comparisons, and market research in minutes — what used to take weeks.
  • “Ask better questions, and you’ll get better answers.”

🛠️ Tools & Tactics

  • Tools like POE (low/no-code builder) and HuggingFace provide diverse ways to integrate AI into business processes.
  • AI isn’t a silver bullet — use it where it saves time and adds value, not where custom coding or consistent outputs are required.

Final Thoughts This episode isn't just about trends — it’s about future-proofing your business. Whether you’re a six-figure seller or just starting out, the takeaways are universal: use AI to think deeper, move faster, and protect smarter.

In this brutally honest episode, Danny McMillan and Dorian dissect the realities of working in and with agencies. From client expectations to internal pressure, Danny opens with a stark insight:

“You're taking on their pressure too — to turn the ship.” He reflects on how experience helps determine what truly works and what’s just “proven strategy nonsense.”

The Pitfalls of the Big Agency Portfolio

Dorian highlights a harsh truth about agency structure:

“You’ll get the lowest experience manager assigned to your account. It just doesn’t matter to them.” Clients are often drawn in by flashy portfolios, but in reality, smaller accounts get junior staff and rarely the attention of top talent.

Danny reinforces this, noting how agencies scale through SOPs and “sweatshop workers,” saying:

“Two out of ten account managers might be elite — the rest are filler.” Software + Managed Services = Locked-In Mediocrity

Software companies that bundle software with account management often fall short. Danny explains that many account managers are “demo people” turned strategists, lacking deep PPC knowledge or cross-platform experience.

“They run out of strategies by month two.” The root issue? The system trains people for one tool, not the dynamics of diverse, real-world businesses.

AI & Automation: The Accountant Case Study

Shifting gears, Danny shares how automation is reshaping his internal team. Manual tasks are disappearing, he reallocates those team members to high-leverage roles like data validation, dashboard reporting, and performance benchmarking.

“Efficiency shouldn’t equal job loss — it should mean more meaningful output.” Manus AI: Autonomous Power Tool or Overhyped Wrapper?

One of the most compelling parts of the episode is Danny's deep dive into Manus AI. While it runs on Claude, he insists it’s far from just a wrapper:

“Manus is like dealing with a human. It uses 30 native tools, runs its own checklists, and breaks down tasks autonomously.” Dorian explains how Manus scrapes, previews, and clicks through websites, operating with depth beyond ChatGPT. Danny recounts solving major business problems — from venue bookings to accounting automation — all in four days for just $240 in credits, declaring:

“The ROI was absolutely fucking priceless.” Tool Talk: LM Studio vs. Manus

Danny experiments with LM Studio, an offline local LLM platform. While it's promising for airplane-mode workflows, he admits it’s clunky compared to Manus. His final take?

“Do you want to fiddle with open source to save a few pennies or use something that just works?”

In this powerful and brutally honest episode of Seller Sessions, Danny McMillan sits down with Dorian Gorski, a seasoned agency founder, to pull the curtain back on the gritty reality of running an Amazon agency in today's commoditized, AI-driven landscape.

🔥 Key Topics & Insights

The Brutal Shift in the Agency Landscape

  • Danny doesn't sugarcoat it: “I’d rather die than jump on Clown World on LinkedIn selling magical strategies.”
  • He opens up about laying off half his agency team, not as a failure, but as a strategic pivot. "I helped get them placed in jobs – and we are working on new tech to compliment PPC and ranking "
  • With the rise of AI and automation, old models are collapsing. Agencies that once thrived on manual work now face clients expecting more, for less.

AI Is Not the Threat — Poor Strategy Is

  • Dorian emphasizes that AI isn’t the enemy — misuse is: "If you use AI to make life better for you and your clients, you’re going to win."
  • He notes his own agency now charges 30-40% less than four years ago, but delivers more, faster, and better.

From Creative to Conversion Agency

  • Dorian drops a game-changing perspective: “We’re no longer a creative agency — we’re a conversion agency.”
  • It's not about fancy visuals anymore. The north star is results — better conversion rates and click-throughs.
  • Every designer and copywriter on his team is in touch with the client, driven by data, not output.

⚖️ Honest Talk on Business Models

Free Trials? A Trap.

  • Danny warns about the lure of performance-only models: “The front end looks attractive, but on the back end, it’s Hunger Games.”
  • These models cherry-pick winners, leaving a trail of burnt-out sellers with wasted time and broken campaigns.

Why Reputation Matters

  • “One client can take you on a journey you can't imagine,” says Dorian, encouraging agencies to focus on fewer, better-fit clients.
  • He scaled down from 30 clients to just 5–6, with a leaner team and bigger impact.

💬 Insightful Quotes

  • Danny: "Margins are being squeezed. It’s a bloodbath out there."
  • Dorian: "As long as you deliver results at a good ROI, you’ve got nothing to worry about."
  • Danny: “Anyone can get you to the top of the page. But if your product doesn’t convert, it’s worthless.”

🔚 Final Thoughts

This is not a fluff piece. It’s a deep dive into the realities of running an Amazon agency in 2025 — where ethics, efficiency, and execution are the only things that matter. Whether you're a seller looking for an agency, or an agency leader yourself, this episode is a must-listen blueprint for surviving the AI and automation storm.

The Impact of AI on the Amazon Community

In this engaging and thought-provoking episode of Seller Sessions, Danny McMillan is joined by creative agency veteran Dorian Gorski for a candid conversation about the impact of AI on the creative industry. What starts as a warm-up for Dorian’s in-depth interview next week quickly transforms into an illuminating discussion on technology, artistry, and adaptation.

⚡ AI's Disruption in Design and Creativity

Dorian opens up about the initial panic felt when AI tools began generating high-quality visuals. “I saw the output and thought, damn, I might be out of a job.” But rather than resisting, Dorian and his agency chose to embrace the wave, recognizing parallels with past revolutions like the advent of Photoshop or the shift from hand-drawing to digital.

Danny draws powerful comparisons with the music industry:

  • Musicians once dismissed electronic music as "not real."
  • Then, those same musicians feared the internet (LimeWire) stealing their art.
  • Now, the creators born in that era are pushing back against AI-generated tracks.

💡 Key Insight:

"Innovation is taking the past and turning it into the future." – Danny McMillan

🔁 The Cycle of Resistance and Acceptance

They explore how every generation resists the next wave, only to later adopt its practices. AI is no different. Whether it's visual design or music, Danny highlights how perception, pride, and personal investment often cloud judgment.

Dorian poses a brilliant consumer test:

“What if you discover your favorite new track is AI-generated?”

Danny’s take: The consumer doesn’t care—music is emotion, not process. Only purists object.

📈 Leveling the Playing Field with AI

Dorian highlights the true strength of AI isn't just design output—it’s in research and ideation. His team shifted focus from image generation to deeper audience analysis. What once took a team of 5 researchers can now be synthesized quickly through AI.

Danny supports this with an excellent analogy:

The floor has risen. Fiverr-quality work now looks significantly better thanks to AI. But those with domain expertise—like seasoned designers or copywriters—still outpace novices by leveraging AI to multiply their knowledge and creativity.

🎯 Final Takeaway

This episode is a powerful reminder that while AI raises the quality baseline, true mastery comes from leveraging that power with experience and insight. Whether you're a designer, musician, or entrepreneur, resisting change ensures irrelevance—but embracing it wisely positions you at the forefront of innovation.

Broad Match Show - Who Hates Rufus? Welcome back to another episode of the Broad Match Show, a long-overdue deep dive into Amazon strategy, personal growth, and the chaos of running a business. In this candid conversation, Danny and Adam cover everything from the realities of conversion optimization to entrepreneurial struggles, unexpected challenges, and personal discipline. Murphy’s Law and the Reality of Running a Business Danny kicks off the show by sharing a brutal stretch of ten weeks where everything that could go wrong, did. It was one of those stretches where pushing harder only made things worse. * Murphy’s Law in full effect: "Every time we touched something, it broke." * The lesson? Sometimes, pushing too hard pushes success further away—you have to step back and let things flow.

Adam relates, explaining how life and business have natural rhythms. There are times to grind and push through, but there are also moments when letting go is the smarter move. The Amazon Landscape: Incremental Gains, Not Silver Bullets A big topic was how Amazon sellers are obsessed with finding the "one big hack", but in reality, success comes from small, consistent improvements. Rufus & Amazon's Algorithm Changes * At first, everyone loved Rufus—Amazon’s new AI-driven assistant. * But now? The honeymoon is over. The same people who praised it are now complaining because they don’t fully understand how it fits into their strategy. * Reality check: Rufus isn’t a replacement for traditional optimization—it’s an additive layer to how Amazon ranks products.

Danny: "People think Rufus is replacing everything. It's not." Adam adds: Amazon isn't tearing everything down; they’re just tweaking things to improve conversion rates by a few percentage points—which, at scale, means billions of dollars for them. The Truth About Conversion Optimization Both Danny and Adam agree: most optimization efforts fail—and that’s normal. * Even the best marketers fail more than they win, which is why you have to test and iterate constantly. * Proven strategies? They’re often just the highlights—for every success story, there are countless tests that didn’t move the needle.

Danny’s blunt take: "Look, if you optimize ten listings, expect maybe one or two to improve. That’s the reality. If you're expecting 100% success, you’re not doing conversion optimization—you’re just following templates." Adam agrees, sharing a wild story about a multi-million dollar listing they tested multiple image variations on. They tried everything—new lighting, 3D renders, high-end photography—and yet, the original, mediocre image kept winning. "We were scratching our heads. Turns out, the lower-quality image actually resonated better with price-sensitive shoppers." Building AI-Driven Tools for Amazon Sellers Danny gives a sneak peek into new tools he’s developing, designed to eliminate complexity and make testing faster and easier. * His goal? "Grunt tools"—simple, no-brainer tools that let sellers make better decisions without needing a PhD in Amazon’s algorithm. * No learning curve. No guesswork. Just results. * The key to winning on Amazon? Moving fast—test more, iterate quicker, and adapt before your competitors do.

Adam: "The sellers who take the most shots on goal are the ones who win. It’s not about getting everything right—just getting more reps in than everyone else." Discipline, Fitness, and Staying Sharp Beyond Amazon, both Danny and Adam are big on discipline—both in business and in life. Danny’s training routine: * Heavy into boxing, sparring regularly, and adjusting his workouts to avoid injuries as he hits 50. * No more squats or deadlifts—all about longevity and smart training. * Shoulder injury? He’s considering BPC-157 & TB-500 peptides to accelerate recovery.

Adam’s approach: * Cycling has become his go-to for clearing his head, logging 60+ miles this week alone. * He’s rediscovering his passion for the sport, balancing it with weight training.

Adam’s take: "The way you train in life reflects how you run your business. You can't show up lazy in one and expect to dominate in the other." "Who Wants to Fight?" One of the funniest (and most ridiculous) moments of the episode was Danny recalling how someone on LinkedIn started challenging him to a fight—purely for page impressions and social media clout. Adam adds: "People don’t understand how serious fighting is. You could seriously hurt someone, or worse. Real fighters know it’s about respect, not ego." What’s Next? * Danny: All-in on Seller Sessions Live and finalizing AI tools to help sellers optimize faster. * Adam: Traveling to London & India before finally settling down after 18 months of nomadic living.

Final Takeaway: Play the Long Game This episode wasn’t just about Amazon—it was about the mindset of winning in business and life. * Stop chasing quick wins. * Be patient. Test. Iterate. Learn. * Take action faster than your competitors. * Stay disciplined—whether in business, fitness, or life.

Kevin King: Conference Season, Networking & The State of Amazon Selling The King is Back! Host Danny McMillan welcomes back Kevin King, a well-known figure in the Amazon selling space. Kevin has been on a whirlwind tour, hitting 17 flights by March as he gears up for the busy conference season. In this episode, Kevin shares insider insights on key Amazon events, the evolving seller landscape, and why stepping outside the Amazon bubble is crucial for long-term success. The Amazon Conference Circuit * Titan Event in Cancun: A high-level mastermind with seven and eight-figure sellers. Kevin notes a big increase in expertise at this year's event. * Prosper Show (Las Vegas): + Not just an expo—MDS (Million Dollar Sellers) Inspire Event kicks off before the main show. + "Every night there are 2-3 major parties surrounding Prosper," Kevin says. + The growing trend of "satellite events" around conferences, similar to Amazon Accelerate in Seattle. * Iceland: Billion Dollar Seller Summit (BDSS): + Kevin’s last BDSS in its current form before shifting to a new event model. + Over 120 high-level sellers attending, with an average revenue of $7.5 million. + AI Contest, Market Masters, and Ted Talk-style sessions. + Streaming available for those who can’t attend in person. + Post-BDSS event Elevate 360 focuses on non-Amazon marketing, featuring experts like Mr. Beast’s YouTube strategist and Google Ads expert John Moran.

Why Amazon Sellers Need to Expand Their Horizons Kevin emphasizes a major issue: Amazon sellers operate in a small fishbowl. * “We stay in our little ecosystem and don't learn from general marketers,” Kevin warns. * Successful sellers must learn skills from outside Amazon, such as YouTube, funnels, paid ads, and branding. * Many Amazon educators only teach TikTok or PPC from an Amazon perspective, which limits sellers' potential. * Kevin's Elevate 360 event brings in non-Amazon experts to teach sellers real marketing strategies.

The Importance of Amazon Events & Networking * Conferences aren’t just about content, they’re about networking and high-value connections. * Kevin shares a powerful success story: + A seller with a multi-million-dollar supplement brand was suspended for 8 months. + After a hot seat session at Market Masters, Kevin advised them to attend Amazon Accelerate’s Genius Bar in Seattle. + The seller flew there, met an Amazon rep, and got reinstated in 24 hours.

"These events can literally save your business," Kevin says. Seller Sessions Live: A New Approach Danny shares details about his upcoming Seller Sessions Live event, which shifts from the traditional conference model to a more hands-on learning experience: * Built from the ground up with full participation from attendees. * ClickUp documentation for frameworks, prompts, and strategies. * Custom AI tools to reduce seller decision fatigue. * “Most conference attendees take notes but struggle with retention and implementation. This new format solves that.”

Kevin King’s Newsletter & Industry Influence * Kevin’s Amazon newsletter is now the #1 source of industry insights. * “More people come up to me at events and say they love the newsletter than anything else I do,” he says. * He also runs four major events per year, including: + BDSS & Elevate 360 (Iceland) + Billion Dollar Seller Summit (Virtual) + Market Masters (High-Level Mastermind)

The Future of AI for Amazon Sellers * AI tools must go beyond basic ChatGPT prompts—sellers need practical, plug-and-play solutions. * Kevin and Norm Farrar are launching DragonFish, a new service suite that includes: + AI-driven branding + Advertising & content creation + Managed services for Amazon & Shopify sellers

Final Thoughts * Attending the right events is crucial—it’s not just about learning but also making connections that can change your business. * Amazon sellers must think bigger—general marketing skills will separate average sellers from great ones. * Kevin and Danny both challenge sellers to step outside their comfort zones and level up.

Main Image Monthly: Click-through Rate DOUBLED from 7% to 14% The team is back for Main Image Monthly, diving into the art and science of Amazon listing images. This episode focuses on real-world testing, image optimization, and how small changes can lead to massive improvements in conversion rates. 🔹 Case Study: A Best-Selling Knee Pillow * Sim introduces the featured product: a memory foam knee pillow that dominates sales but suffers from poor image presentation. * High return rates and review challenges make image optimization even more crucial. * The brand owner admitted the main image was weak—perfect for testing!

The Testing Process: How to Find the Best Image 1️⃣ Qualitative Testing – What Do Shoppers Really Want? Matt walks through the first step: asking real customers what they look for when buying a knee pillow. Key takeaways: ✅ Washable cover is a top priority. ✅ Orthopedic approval builds trust. ✅ People love to see brand credibility (GQ & The Guardian features stood out). ✅ Strap visibility was a key decision factor. ✅ Color choices impact buying decisions (darker colors seen as easier to maintain). 2️⃣ First Round of Image Redesign Dorian revamps the main image based on initial feedback: ✔ Better angle to highlight the pillow’s shape. ✔ Color contrast to make the image pop. ✔ Memory foam texture enhanced to visually communicate quality. ✔ Callout labels added (Doctor-developed, Washable cover). 🚨 First test result? Only a 1% improvement 😬 3️⃣ Data-Driven Refinements Armed with more shopper insights, the team doubles down on what works: ✔ Stronger doctor credibility: “Doctor Developed” added front and center. ✔ More visible strap feature (a big differentiator). ✔ Washable cover highlighted boldly—this resonated the most. ✔ Union Jack added for "Made in UK" trust factor. ✔ Final test result? Click-through rate DOUBLED from 7% to 14%! 🚀 Final Insights: The Importance of Continuous Testing ✅ A/B Testing Isn't One-and-Done – Many tests fail before a winner emerges. ✅ Even “Better Looking” Images Can Lose – A sharper photo doesn’t always convert better. ✅ Amazon Manage Experiments is Flawed – It takes time and doesn’t always provide accurate A/B insights. ✅ Small Changes Have Huge Impact – A tiny tweak like mentioning "washable cover" can double sales. Key Takeaways for Amazon Sellers * Invest in High-Quality Product Photos – If the base image is bad, no amount of editing will fix it. * Listen to Your Customers – Run polls and qualitative tests before making changes. * Test Frequently – The best sellers iterate constantly to find incremental gains. * Leverage Contrast & Callouts – Use bold colors, highlights, and credibility markers to stand out.

How a Former Pro Gambler Built an 8-Figure Amazon Empire In this in-depth conversation, Sim shares his unique transition from professional poker and sports betting into the world of Amazon selling. With a background in calculated risk-taking, Sim leveraged his analytical mindset to build an eight-figure Amazon business. * Sim started as a poker player, making six figures annually before transitioning into his father's business. * He recognized early on that gambling was unsustainable in the long run, prompting his shift to Amazon. * The mindset of finding an “edge” in poker directly translated into his approach to e-commerce, where he constantly seeks competitive advantages.

Lessons from Gambling That Applied to Amazon * Understanding risk and reward: Sim’s experience in poker helped him assess market opportunities with a gambler’s precision. * Decision-making under pressure: Navigating Amazon’s ever-changing landscape requires quick and calculated moves. * Data-driven strategy: Just like analyzing poker hands, Sim dives deep into product performance and market trends to optimize results.

Scaling to 8 Figures: The Key Strategies 1. The Power of Systems and Delegation * Sim initially handled every part of the business, from logistics to listing optimization. * By restructuring roles and responsibilities, the business became more scalable and efficient.

  1. Leveraging Seller Fulfilled Prime for an Edge * Sim’s business runs its own warehouse, allowing for better control over fulfillment.
  2. Their Seller Fulfilled Prime strategy ensures customers always see one-day shipping, optimizing conversions.
  3. By managing fulfillment costs effectively, they maintain higher margins than competitors.

  4. The Art of Amazon Product Launches * Sim focuses heavily on imagery and deals rather than relying solely on PPC.

  5. High-quality main images, optimized through A/B testing, drive higher click-through rates and conversions.
  6. Creative pricing strategies and aggressive deal placements help maintain rankings in competitive niches.

  7. The Future: Expanding in the US and Dominating a Category * Sim’s team is working with experts to ensure a smooth and highly profitable US launch.

  8. Their goal is to completely own a specific niche in the UK, becoming the go-to brand for that category.
  9. With a focus on fewer, higher-performing products, they aim to streamline operations and scale efficiently.

Challenges and Insights for Amazon Sellers * Balancing Growth and Complexity: Managing a warehouse and a team of nearly 30 people comes with its challenges, but Sim sees it as a long-term investment. * Staying Ahead with AI & Market Changes: With Amazon constantly evolving, Sim remains cautious about how AI might impact e-commerce in the future. * Retaining a Winning Team: One of his top priorities is maintaining high retention and keeping his skilled team motivated.

From selling on Groupon to building million-dollar brands, Matt shares his wins, failures, and insights into what makes an entrepreneur thrive. Breaking into Business & Early Failures * First job: Marketing assistant at a small pharma company. * Quickly gained responsibility, launched direct-to-consumer websites, and caught the CEO’s attention. * Helped grow the company to millions in revenue before it was sold—but had no equity. A lesson learned.

The Leap into E-Commerce * Moved to a software start-up, gaining exposure to inventory management and online selling. * First Amazon product: An iPod dock connector adapter—went viral with minimal effort, leading to thousands in sales within weeks.

This is a conversation we had with Max and Jo from The New Frontier Podcast, but we felt it needed to be more widely available. In this episode, we dive deep into Amazon’s RUFUS Blueprint—a game-changing patent that most sellers know nothing about. We break down exactly how RUFUS works, from noun phrase optimisation to visual label tagging and click training data, and how sellers can future-proof their listings. If you're serious about staying ahead in e-commerce, this is a must-listen.

Host: Joanna Lambadjieva Guests: Danny McMillan, Oana (AI A9 Algorithm Specialist), and Andrew (Custom GPT Expert)

Overview of the Episode In this captivating episode of the New Frontier Podcast, the discussion dives deep into the revolutionary RUFUS Blueprint, a groundbreaking Amazon patent that promises to reshape the way sellers optimise their product listings and leverage AI for superior e-commerce results. Hosted by Joanna Lambadjieva, with insightful contributions from Danny McMillan, Oana, and Andrew, this episode is a must-listen for e-commerce professionals looking to stay ahead of the curve.

Highlights from the Conversation What is RUFUS? The team explores Amazon's RUFUS patent and its impact on optimising e-commerce experiences:

  • Multimodal Capabilities: RUFUS processes text, visuals, and video, making it a versatile tool for personalised product recommendations.
  • Learning Through Interaction: RUFUS evolves through click training data, analysing user behaviours across product categories, and refining recommendations over time.

Key Insights and Strategies Noun Phrase Optimisation (NPO) Andrew explains how NPO is a game-changer:

  • Traditional keywords like "lamp" or "chair" are insufficient. Instead, RUFUS thrives on semantic-rich noun phrases such as "hand-carved mahogany bookshelf" or "stainless steel pourover coffee maker".
  • Building detailed noun stacks improves product discoverability by aligning with natural language queries.

Actionable Tip: Sellers should integrate descriptive modifiers (materials, styles, purposes) into product titles, bullet points, and descriptions.

Click Training Data Anana breaks down how RUFUS uses click behaviour:

  • Every user interaction feeds into the system, refining future recommendations.
  • Examples include linking features like "cushioning" with products like shoes for flat feet, evolving customer queries to reflect trends in user preferences.

Takeaway: The dynamic nature of RUFUS queries underscores the importance of continuously updating product listings.

Visual Label Tagging Andrew introduces the concept of visual label tagging:

  • RUFUS uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to interpret text on images.
  • Adding descriptive text to images (e.g., “portable and lightweight” or “ergonomic grip”) ensures RUFUS extracts relevant data.

Pro Tip: Go beyond alt text—ensure images include textual overlays with key product features.

Q&A Enhancements The patent’s emphasis on Question-Answer (Q&A) optimisation offers sellers a new framework:

  • Map out customer questions and create clusters by topic.
  • Incorporate strong noun phrases into answers, aligning them with RUFUS's ability to infer and rank relevant responses.

Example Strategy: In product descriptions, frame benefits around likely customer questions. For earbuds, structure the copy like this:

  • Question: Are they comfortable for workouts?
  • Answer: Designed with a secure adjustable hook for stability during intense exercise.

Myths Dispelled and Real-World Applications Danny elaborates on common misconceptions about RUFUS:

  • "Keyword stuffing" is obsolete; instead, sellers must focus on semantic relevance and contextual accuracy.
  • Dynamic content and attribute enrichment are critical to staying competitive.

Best Practice: Use RUFUS optimisations on underperforming products to safely experiment without risking top-selling listings.

Final Thoughts The team concludes with a forward-looking perspective:

  • The integration of conversational, semantic, and visual optimisation signals the end of static, keyword-stuffed e-commerce.
  • RUFUS represents a paradigm shift where sellers must think contextually, conversationally, and inferentially.

Key Message: Future-proof your Amazon strategy by embracing AI-driven tools like RUFUS to stay ahead in the evolving e-commerce landscape.

Buying Back the Brand - The Story of Beast Gear with Ben Leonard Welcome to Seller Sessions with Danny McMillan. Today, Ben Leonard, founder of Beast Gear, shares his journey of selling, watching the decline, and buying back his brand. He offers insights into brand management, resilience, and reclaiming a damaged asset. The Birth of Beast Gear and Its Early Success * Origins of Beast Gear: Ben launched Beast Gear as a strength and conditioning brand while working in oil and gas. By 2019, it reached $6M in annual revenue, becoming the largest in the UK and Europe. * Sale of the Brand: In 2019, Ben sold Beast Gear to an aggregator in the first European acquisition of its kind. The offer was life-changing, supporting Ben's growing family and personal goals.

The Decline of Beast Gear * Aggregator Mismanagement: Ben observed how the aggregators, driven by financial motives rather than e-commerce expertise, failed to maintain Beast Gear’s quality and brand identity. This resulted in the erosion of the “soul” of the brand. * The Fallout: By late 2023, the aggregator faced Chapter 11 bankruptcy, struggling with its portfolio of over 200 brands, which it eventually downsized to fewer than 50.

Buying Back the Brand * Romantic Yet Strategic Move: Ben combined emotion with pragmatism, starting with contacting former aggregator contacts and leading to complex negotiations. * The Deal: Ben and a former aggregator founder acquired Beast Gear among distressed brands, with minimal upfront costs, consignment inventory, and an earn-out model.

Challenges and Risks of Rebuilding * Market Evolution: The e-commerce landscape is now more competitive, but Ben sees opportunities to leverage his experience and the brand’s history. * Addressing Competition: Competitors often fail to build authentic customer relationships. Ben aims to revitalize Beast Gear’s identity and reconnect with its loyal audience. * The US Market: Not entering the US market was a major regret. Ben sees it as a significant opportunity for future expansion, despite brand recognition challenges.

Advice for Entrepreneurs Considering a Buyback * Mitigate Risks: Minimize upfront investment and use consignment for inventory. * Leverage Relationships: Use your brand knowledge to position yourself as the best buyer. * Stay Rational: Ensure the deal is financially sound, not emotionally driven. * Be Prepared for Challenges: A buyback often means rebuilding a damaged asset from scratch.

Ben’s Future Plans and Brand Rescue Mission Ben will transparently document Beast Gear’s turnaround through his Brand Rescue Mission, sharing experiences and strategies to inspire and educate others in similar ventures.

Behind the Scenes of Live Image Optimization Host: Danny McMillan Guests: Dorian, Sim, Andri This MIM Live session explores image optimisation and its impact on product visibility and customer engagement. Danny McMillan and the team work with Dorian to refine visual assets in real-time, showcasing the iterative process of creating compelling e-commerce imagery. Key Highlights: 1. Hydrogen Peroxide and Product Messaging * The discussion emphasizes the importance of ingredient transparency in product imagery, suggesting that highlighting ingredients like hydrogen peroxide can build trust and credibility. * Andri highlights the challenge of balancing safety with performance claims, questioning whether to emphasize less invasive formulas or scientific effectiveness. * Dorian agrees on the need for clarity, stating that a certain formula can be featured in the design to connect with the target audience.

  1. Results-Oriented Copywriting * Sim and the team discuss how timelines influence buyer decisions, emphasising that claims like “8x shades whiter” need a defined timeframe to increase credibility.
  2. Catchy phrasing like "Fast results in just 14 days" emerged as a strong contender, with Andri explaining, "14 days sounds shorter and less intimidating than two weeks—it’s worth testing."

  3. Award-Winning Trust Signals * Integrating awards or certifications into packaging was explored. Andri suggested, “Adding ‘Award-Winning Formula’ subtly elevates the product, making competitors look less trustworthy.”

  4. Danny adds, "It’s about stating the obvious but making it compelling. Why does the formula win awards? That’s the narrative buyers want."

  5. Aesthetic Tweaks and Visual Testing * A debate arose over using before-and-after images, with concerns about aesthetics and customer perception. Danny noted, "Yellow teeth might show results but could deter initial impressions."

  6. Dorian highlighted the squint test, zooming out to assess prominent elements like colors and text. Key points included:

    • Bright colors (e.g., reds or blues) often outperform pastels.
    • Highlighting "Award-Winning" in bold, contrasting circles can attract attention while staying professional.
  7. Iteration Through Data * The team emphasised the importance of testing hypotheses. As Dorian stated, "The moment I feel confident with a design is when I’m ready to spend $100 to test it on ProductPinion or similar platforms."

  8. The session concluded with multiple design iterations, balancing brand presence, messaging clarity, and aesthetic appeal.

Actionable Takeaways: * Test visual prominence: Verify bold claims like "Award-Winning" align with customer expectations. * Iterate designs with context: Use competition-aware adjustments like standout colors or trust signals. * Keep numbers clean and clear: Short timelines and concise claims enhance psychological impact.

Cracking Rufus and the Story Behind The Blueprint Welcome to this special edition of Seller Sessions, where Danny McMillan dives deep into Amazon’s AI-driven evolution with Oana Padurariu and Andrew Bell. In today’s episode, they unpack the sicence behind Rufus and how it words on a technical level. Danny kicks off by highlighting the monumental shift Amazon is undergoing with the introduction of Rufus, a powerful AI-driven recommendation engine designed to personalize the shopping experience. Unlike traditional keyword-based search algorithms, Rufus interprets natural language queries, connecting questions and answers to products through. Noun Phrases and semantic similarity models. “The era of static, keyword-stuffed listings is over. Rufus marks a sea change in how customers find and purchase products online. We need to think beyond keywords and embrace AI-driven optimization.” Lexical Matching vs. Semantic Similarity * Lexical Matching vs. Semantic Similarity: * Traditional search ranks results based on exact keywords. Rufus goes deeper by understanding noun phrases and their meaning, even if the exact words aren’t present. * Inference and Reasoning: * Rufus interprets questions and product features to make recommendations based on real-world use cases. For example, asking “What’s the best running shoe for flat feet?” triggers suggestions for products with enhanced cushioning, even if the product description doesn’t explicitly say “flat feet.”

The Core of Rufus: Noun Phrase Optimization (NPO) Andrew introduces a new concept for sellers: Noun Phrase Optimization (NPO). He explains that instead of focusing on individual keywords, sellers should craft rich noun phrases that Rufus can interpret and rank effectively. Example: Instead of just “journal,” optimize with: * Material: Leather-bound * Type: Writing journal * Purpose: Gift for writers

Key Takeaways: * Build descriptive, semantically rich noun phrases that Rufus can infer meaning from. * Structure listings using core noun phrases with descriptive modifiers (e.g., “stainless steel pour-over coffee maker”).

“Think of it as building a noun stack — material, type, purpose. Each layer enriches the meaning for Rufus to process and connect with customer queries.” Why Sellers Must Embrace AI Search Danny, Oana, and Andrew agree that AI-driven search is the future, and sellers who adapt early will reap the benefits. However, they caution against gutting existing listings without a strategic approach. Here’s how to get started: 1. Test on Lower-Performing Products * Apply NPO strategies to failed or underperforming products before risking top sellers. 2. Optimize Image Text * Rufus reads text in images. Ensure your action shots and infographics include semantic phrases. 3. Utilize Backend Attributes * Fill in optional attributes in the backend to help Rufus better understand your product.

The Semantic Similarity Model In simple terms, Rufus connects questions to products through a ranking process that interprets meaning rather than matching exact keywords. It uses click training data to learn from shopper behavior and noun phrases to rank products based on their semantic relevance. Example: * Question: Are car seats interchangeable? * Answer: Universal infant car seat. * Rufus makes this connection without the exact phrase appearing in the product description.

Practical Strategies for Sellers Noun Phrase Structure for Titles: * Descriptive Noun Phrase: Professional kitchen knife set * Secondary Noun Phrase: Chef’s cooking collection * Qualifier: With German steel blades

Bullet Points: * Lead with strong noun phrases that connect features to benefits.

Why Data Matters — And Why It’s Still Missing There’s no direct data for Rufus performance yet. She stresses the need for Amazon to release reporting tools that measure Rufus-driven sales and performance. However, Danny highlights a workaround: “Test your product detail pages (PDPs) with Rufus. Ask questions about your product and see how Rufus responds. If the answers are inaccurate or missing, that’s a sign you need to optimize.” The Future of Amazon Search and AI “AI-based search is here to stay. Keywords aren’t dead, but the way we use them is changing. We need to think conversationally, contextually, and customer-first.” Key Takeaways: How to Future-Proof Your Listings * + Embrace Noun Phrase Optimization (NPO)Create rich, descriptive noun phrases that Rufus can interpret. + Test Your PDPs with RufusAsk questions and analyze the responses to identify gaps. + Leverage Backend AttributesComplete optional attributes to improve product discovery.

Final Thoughts from the Guests Andrew: “The rise of Rufus marks a shift to AI-driven discovery. Sellers must start thinking beyond traditional SEO and embrace inference-based optimization.” Oana: “2025 will be a pivotal year. Rufus will continue to evolve, and sellers must adapt to stay competitive. The key is understanding how Amazon’s AI reads and ranks your listings.” Want More Insights? * Looking for a Free PPC Audit? * 👉 https://www.databrill.com * Check out the article: Rufus – The Blueprint * 👉 https://sellersessions.com/rufus-the-blueprint/ * Out Now on SellerSessions.com * “The Cold Reality of the Honeymoon Period and External Traffic” * 👉 https://sellersessions.com/the-cold-reality-of-the-honeymoon-period-and-external-traffic/

Key Discussion Points Impact of Trump’s Proposed Tariffs * Fentanyl Crisis Connection: President Trump’s proposed 10% tariff on Chinese goods is a response to the U.S. fentanyl crisis, allegedly linked to China. This could have significant implications for sellers importing from China. * Immediate Actions for Sellers: + Use a cost calculator to evaluate the impact of a 10% increase on your landed cost. + Negotiate reduced supplier costs if your margins are slim. + Implement a China Plus One Strategy to diversify your supply chain, sourcing from countries like India, Vietnam, or El Salvador.

Preparing for Chinese New Year * Production Challenges: + Workers may rush production before leaving, leading to potential quality issues. + Not all workers return after the holiday, resulting in possible delays and retraining periods. * Key Tips: + Schedule pre-shipment inspections to ensure quality control. + Communicate proactively with suppliers about timelines. + Avoid placing critical orders immediately after the holiday to allow time for new workers to adjust.

Long-Term Strategies for 2024 and Beyond Building Strong Supplier Relationships * Visit your suppliers’ factories to foster better communication and gain insights into their processes. * Negotiate better terms, such as reduced deposits or extended payment deadlines.

Leveraging Annual Forecasting * Provide suppliers with a forecasted order plan for the year to: + Secure economies of scale. + Reduce lead times by pre-ordering raw materials. + Maintain consistent product quality.

Factory Insights and Cost Optimization * Understanding factory processes can reveal opportunities to streamline production and reduce costs. For instance: + Adjusting design elements to accommodate machinery rather than manual work can save time and materials. + On-site visits allow you to identify inefficiencies in real-time.

Future-Proofing Your Supply Chain * Be proactive in exploring global sourcing options, staying prepared for potential geopolitical or economic disruptions. * Enhance your expertise by engaging in communities like Sourcing School or attending the Canton Fair.

Key Takeaways * The proposed tariffs and geopolitical shifts demand flexibility and strategic planning in your sourcing approach. * Diversification is critical—explore multiple sourcing options and prepare contingency plans. * Building strong, long-term relationships with suppliers can save costs and improve quality. * Properly plan for Chinese New Year to avoid delays and ensure consistent product quality.

Back from the Brink: A Deep Dive into Mental Health and Resilience with Paul Baron In this episode of the Seller Sessions Podcast, Danny McMillan brings a heartfelt and inspiring conversation with entrepreneur Paul Baron. Known for his expertise in the Amazon ecosystem, Paul shares an unfiltered narrative about his personal struggles with mental health, his journey through immense challenges, and his path to recovery. This conversation offers a unique mix of raw vulnerability and actionable insights, providing listeners with lessons on resilience, self-awareness, and community.

Key Themes and Takeaways 1. The Entrepreneurial Highs and Lows

  • Paul Baron and his wife launched their Amazon brand in 2015, initially experiencing significant success:
    • Grew from $50,000 in first-year sales to $250,000 the following year.
    • Garnered media attention with appearances on The Rachel Ray Show and partnerships with notable figures.
  • The trajectory shifted drastically by 2020 due to the pandemic's impact on their travel-dependent product line, skyrocketing operational costs, and mounting debts.

  • Mental Health: The Hidden Struggles

  • Paul openly discusses seasonal affective disorder (SAD), anxiety, and ADHD, which compounded as his business faced setbacks.

  • The impact of public personas: Paul described the disconnect between his public image of success and his personal battles.
  • The danger of unresolved issues: Suppressing struggles led to cycles of burnout and self-doubt, a pattern that nearly led him to a breaking point.

  • The Breaking Point and Turning Things Around

  • July and August 2023 marked the lowest period for Paul, when financial and personal stresses collided:

    • Public scrutiny from a Bloomberg article exposed his struggles.
    • Personal relationships were strained, culminating in a pivotal argument with his wife that led to self-reflection.
  • The intervention of a friend, Tim Jordan, was crucial. Tim pushed Paul to seek professional help, offering both support and accountability.

  • Rebuilding with Purpose

  • With therapy, physical activity, and a redefinition of his purpose, Paul began to heal:

    • Therapy and psychiatric support helped address lifelong anxiety and uncover healthier coping mechanisms.
    • Commitment to physical activity: Paul found solace in hockey and daily walks with his family.
    • Reconnecting with creativity: His success as a TikTok content creator brought new income streams and restored a sense of accomplishment.

Actionable Lessons for Entrepreneurs Recognize the Signs of Mental Strain

  • Seasonal changes, racing thoughts, or persistent feelings of worthlessness may signal deeper issues. Don't ignore them.

Seek Help Early

  • Therapy isn’t just for crises. Routine check-ins can provide clarity and prevent small issues from escalating.

Build a Support Network

  • Surround yourself with people who will hold you accountable. As Paul’s story shows, even one intervention can change a life.

Balance Business and Identity

  • Paul’s journey underscores the importance of not tying your self-worth to your professional success.

Redefine Purpose

  • When business challenges arise, revisit your "why." For Paul, reconnecting with his family and creativity gave him new motivation.

Memorable Quotes * "Fixing the outside doesn’t fix a broken inside." – Danny McMillan * "Men have to feel useful. It’s not just about love; it’s about purpose." – Paul Baron * "Your brain might be a little broken, but that’s okay. You can heal." – Paul Baron

Round-Up and Final Thoughts Paul Baron’s story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. His candid discussion highlights how vulnerability, combined with action, can lead to profound change. This episode is not just a reflection on mental health but a roadmap for anyone navigating personal and professional crises.

Main Image Monthly - Winning the Amazon Game with Data Welcome back to another Main Image Monthly episode of Seller Sessions, where we analyze, test, and refine product imagery to help brands optimize their Amazon listings. Hosted by Danny McMillan, this episode features a stellar lineup: Sim Mahon: A seasoned seller managing six private label brands and driving eight-figure revenues, Matt Kostan and Andri Sadlak: Founders of ProductPinion and 7-8 figure sellers, with over a decade of experience in e-commerce growth strategies. Then stop the scroll expert Dorian Gorski on the main image optimisation, and Oana Padurariu (image recognition insights), with special guest Luke T. Shelley from the viral TikTok brand Lucky Egg. Meet the Brand: Luke T. Shelley Luke, co-founder of Lucky Egg, shares his brand's journey from selling stationery products to launching a party game brand in 2021. With TikTok as a primary driver for traffic, the brand has achieved exceptional success. However, the Amazon listing needed fine-tuning to ensure consistency across traffic sources and optimize conversions. Qualitative Testing: Real Customer Feedback Product Opinion provided unfiltered feedback from 10 board game enthusiasts, focusing on three key questions: 1. How could this party game’s images be improved? 2. What are the top features and benefits that matter most? 3. Why wouldn’t someone buy this game?

Top Objections from Testing: * Dark and Dull Colors: The black box was criticized for feeling uninviting and not matching the festive vibe of a party game. * Looks Fake: Overuse of Photoshop, especially on the headphones, led to concerns about product quality. * Too Busy: Customers felt the main image was cluttered with text and unclear instructions.

Customer Quote: "The black background makes it look dull. I can’t immediately tell it’s a party game. The text is too small and busy." Concept Testing: Data Meets Creativity The team ran multiple iterations of the main image to address feedback while testing hypotheses: 1. Original Image: Straightforward, clean box with headphones and cards. 2. Concept A: Simplified, more focus on the headphones with gameplay text. 3. Concept B: Open-box concept with brighter interior colors, added human element (smiling faces), and prominent TikTok branding.

Round Two: Refining the Winning Concept The team didn’t stop there. They hypothesized further improvements: * Concept D: Enhanced the original image by rearranging elements and improving clarity. * Concept E: Added customer-requested features, such as player count, playtime, and ease of use, directly on the box.

Key Takeaways from Testing: * Clarity is King: Customers prefer simplicity and a clear understanding of the product. * Highlight Key Benefits: Playtime, player count, and ease of play are critical for party games. * Social Proof Works: The “Best Party Game” badge was a standout element. * Quotes Build Trust: Consider adding a powerful testimonial or review to the packaging for instant credibility.

Amazon Recognition Insights Oana shared critical insights about how Amazon’s algorithm interprets images: * The current image risks being labeled as “electronics” or “business cards” due to the black headphones and text-heavy design. * Recommendation: Incorporate the word “game” on the box and cards to ensure accurate indexing.

Key Optimization Tip: Run Amazon Recognition tests before finalizing images to ensure they are correctly categorized by Amazon. Sim’s Key Takeaways 1. Quotes Matter: Adding a humorous or impactful quote can drive purchases, as seen with competitors. 2. Giftable Packaging: A party game is often purchased as a gift, so showcasing appealing packaging is crucial. 3. Segmentation: Keep the core audience (e.g., adults, party-goers) in mind when refining designs.

Dorian’s Expert Insights * Testing Process: Creative optimization requires multiple iterations. Testing with real customer feedback separates opinion from data. * Simplify and Enhance: If the original image performs well, focus on incremental improvements rather than dramatic changes.

Final Advice: Focus on clarity and a focal point that attracts attention. For party games, simplicity and fun elements are key. Next Steps for Lucky Egg Luke will balance all feedback to test a refined main image: * Retain the award badge with potential source credibility. * Incorporate key gameplay features (e.g., player count, ease of play). * Explore adding a reputable quote or humorous testimonial. * Address Amazon’s recognition by ensuring “game” is part of the image design.

Final Round-Up This episode showcased the power of combining data and creativity in image optimization. From brutal customer feedback to multiple rounds of testing, the process demonstrated that even strong-performing listings can be improved with methodical, customer-focused changes. Key Learnings for Sellers: * Always test hypotheses; assumptions don’t drive conversions. * Listen to your target audience—their feedback reveals critical pain points. * Use data-driven tools like Product Opinion and Amazon Recognition to validate changes.

Advanced Ranking on Amazon in Q4: Garfield Coore In this episode of Seller Sessions, Danny McMillan welcomes back Garfield Coore, a top-ranking strategist, to break down Amazon’s algorithm. Garfield shares insights for sellers to maximize organic rank, external traffic, and achieve ranking stability as Q4 peaks., Garfield shares essential techniques for sellers looking to stay competitive and profitable. Key Takeaways The Three-Stage Ranking System: 1. Primary Ranking Events: * Roughly 90% of ranking impact comes from core behaviours on Amazon. * Key actions include searches leading to a product page, add-to-cart from a search click, and purchases from a search pathway. * Garfield stresses avoiding variations that interrupt the ranking pathway. 2. Keyword Cohorts: * Leveraging keyword "families" (using Amazon’s Opportunity Explorer) helps products gain ranking bleed-over. * Start ranking with smaller keywords, allowing spillover to higher competition terms. 3. Territorial Influence: * Minor ranking factors include BSR and inventory location, affecting regional rank. BSR reflects category sales ranking relative to competitors.

Conversion Events Beyond Sales * Clicks, page visits, and add-to-cart actions all serve as ranking events, which Garfield calls “conversion events.” * Focus on generating quality traffic to accumulate these events, which can boost rank without immediate sales.

PPC Strategy: Maximizing Click-Through Rate * PPC placement relies on expected revenue from clicks, not relevance. Garfield explains that a history of clicks improves PPC placement probability.

Timing Event-Driven Ranking * Garfield advises starting campaigns for seasonal events early to establish a low-cost rank before high-demand periods. * For example, healthcare and weight loss products should begin ranking efforts before New Year’s resolutions in January.

Advanced: Master Amazon Ranking: Bite-Sized Insights from the Whiteboard Episode Summary In this episode of Seller Sessions, hosts Dan and Oana take a deep dive into Amazon's ranking mechanism, focusing on the Bayesian update process and its impact on product visibility. Inspired by their previous series on the complexities of the "cold start," Dan and Oana aim to simplify the algorithm’s operations, allowing sellers to apply these insights to common Amazon business challenges, from managing stockouts to ASIN resets.

The Bayesian update plays a crucial role in Amazon's ranking formula, guiding the platform's initial "guess" for each new product’s rank and continuously refining it as user interaction data accrues. They explain the difference between prior and posterior predictions:

  • Initial Prior Prediction: When a new product launches, Amazon evaluates similar products based on shared attributes and performance data, assigning a starting rank that’s essentially a best guess.
  • Posterior Prediction: As users engage with the product (clicks, scrolls, purchases), this real-time behavior helps Amazon fine-tune its ranking, transitioning from a speculative ranking to a data-informed position.

The duo also references two pivotal Amazon patents from 2022 and 2023, which document how real-time interaction data (e.g., clicks and conversions) informs ranking recalculations every 2-24 hours, depending on available data. This Bayesian cycle is fundamental to Amazon's dynamic ranking shifts, especially in crowded categories where initial guesses are quickly updated with interaction-driven insights.

Key Takeaways * The Role of Bayesian Updates: Sellers learn how the Bayesian update transforms initial ranking predictions by integrating real-time user data, continuously recalculating product rankings. * Exploration vs. Exploitation: Amazon prioritizes real user data over hypothetical scenarios, relying on actual behavior to shape ranking results. * New Products vs. Returning Products: Newly listed items start from scratch, but if a product goes out of stock and returns, it resumes with past data, allowing quicker integration of new engagement data. * Ranking Frequency: Ranking updates may occur every 2-24 hours, creating a near-real-time feedback loop that adjusts based on ongoing user interactions.

Dan and Oana emphasize that traditional concepts like the "honeymoon period" are less relevant due to Amazon’s continuous ranking adjustments. As technology advances, rankings are now recalculated frequently, meaning sellers should focus more on engagement metrics than waiting for prolonged ranking boosts.

This episode demystifies complex Bayesian methods in Amazon’s ranking algorithm, offering insights that will help sellers understand how to strategically navigate the platform’s data-driven system.

Building a Full-Funnel DSP Strategy For Amazon Sellers Danny welcomes Sam Lee, an Amazon DSP expert with years of experience at companies like Thrasio. Sam provides insights into the Amazon DSP (Demand Side Platform), a less accessible yet powerful tool compared to Amazon’s PPC. DSP allows for advanced targeting using Amazon’s first-party data, perfect for those ready to expand beyond traditional ad methods. Danny and Sam dive into the essentials of DSP, covering campaign structures, targeting methods, and common pitfalls that many brands face when venturing into DSP. What is Amazon DSP? Sam explains that Amazon DSP is different from traditional Amazon PPC in accessibility and functionality: * Barrier to Entry: DSP isn’t as easy to access as Seller Central; it requires Amazon-approved agencies or meeting certain spend thresholds. * Initial Challenges: Early misuse led to its reputation issues, as many advertisers applied blanket strategies, not optimizing DSP for unique brand/product needs.

Building the Full Funnel Sam emphasizes a strategic approach to DSP that adapts to product price points and buying cycles, avoiding a one-size-fits-all approach: * Understanding Customer Journey: Higher-priced products require longer consideration windows, so retargeting timelines should vary. * Tailoring Campaigns by Product Type: A $10 product doesn’t need a 30-day retargeting window, while a $200 product may need up to 45 days to properly engage the audience.

Key Metrics for Success in DSP To evaluate DSP campaign effectiveness, Sam discusses focusing on core metrics: * Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) and Total ROAS as primary performance indicators. * Effective Cost Per Detail Page View: Lower costs (below $1) signal efficient DSP campaigns, with top performers achieving $0.50 or less. * Percent of Purchases New-to-Brand: Indicates how well DSP attracts fresh customers, avoiding retargeting those already inclined to purchase.

Sam highlights Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) as a tool to monitor customer touchpoints in the purchase path, offering more transparency into DSP’s role in converting new users. DSP Budgeting Insights One misconception Sam dispels is that DSP requires excessive budgets to yield results: * Optimal Spend Range: While larger budgets provide more data for refinement, DSP can still be tested effectively at lower levels if PPC campaigns are fully maximized first. * Synergy Between PPC and DSP: He advises investing as much as possible into PPC until returns diminish, then strategically layering DSP to further boost conversions.

Evaluating DSP Managers When hiring or assessing a DSP manager, Sam recommends looking for these critical skills: 1. Sales Deduplication Knowledge: A solid understanding of deduplicating sales between DSP and PPC, often through merchant tokens, which ensure accurate attribution. 2. Customized Campaign Strategy: Effective DSP managers tailor retargeting windows and budgets based on product price points and sales cycles, avoiding generic settings. 3. Expertise with Streaming and Video Ads: Familiarity with OLV (Online Video) and Streaming TV (OTT) can add value to campaigns, especially for brand awareness.

Streaming TV and Online Video (OLV) Advertising Sam and Danny discuss the advantages of Streaming TV (OTT) and Online Video (OLV) as part of DSP’s offerings: * OTT vs. OLV: OTT, or Over-the-Top Media, is a more premium option, placing ads on streaming platforms like Hulu and Prime Video, while OLV covers a broader online space (e.g., ads between games or online content). * Use Cases: Streaming ads are highly effective for certain brands but come with higher costs, while OLV offers a budget-friendly alternative for brands targeting broader, online-savvy audiences.

DSP for Non-Amazon Sellers One of the most forward-thinking DSP strategies involves leveraging Amazon’s first-party data for external brands: * Application for Non-Amazon Sellers: Brands not selling on Amazon, like car companies or public services, can still use DSP to target potential customers based on Amazon’s deep data insights. * Geotargeting and Demographics: For example, public transit services like LA Metro have used DSP to target specific areas, showing the versatile applications of DSP data.

The Role of DSP in Amazon’s Search and Ranking Algorithm Sam shares advanced insights on how DSP impacts Amazon’s ranking system through behavioral targeting: * Bayesian Update System: Amazon’s algorithm adapts based on live data (clicks, conversions), helping high-performing products “win” visibility quickly while demoting less successful items. * Behavior-Driven Launch Strategy: For launches, a well-optimized DSP campaign can create significant early traction, contributing to better search rankings.

Common Pitfalls and Misconceptions in DSP Sam addresses frequent DSP errors that agencies and brands make: * Misleading Attribution: Lack of merchant tokens can lead to inflated success metrics, misleading clients on actual DSP effectiveness. * Uniform Strategy Application: Applying the same retargeting window or budget across all campaigns, regardless of product type or target audience, can dilute DSP’s impact.

Amazon as a Search Engine First Both Sam and Danny agree that Amazon’s primary goal is search relevancy, driven by conversion rates and user experience: * SEO Principles on Amazon: Amazon prioritizes high-conversion products to ensure users find relevant, desirable items. Successful DSP campaigns enhance this by generating high-quality traffic. * Cold Start Problem: New products face Amazon’s cold-start challenges, where initial performance metrics determine future visibility. DSP’s behavioral targeting can boost early sales velocity, easing this process.

Closing Thoughts Danny and Sam conclude by reinforcing Amazon’s profit-centric nature, encouraging sellers to align with Amazon’s goals to maximize DSP benefits. For sellers looking to experiment with DSP, Sam advises working with knowledgeable agencies or managers to avoid wasted spend and achieve incremental gains over PPC alone.

Seller Sessions - The Man Behind the Honeymoon   In this episode of Seller Sessions, Danny McMillan welcomes Anthony Lee, the innovator behind the term "honeymoon period" in the world of Amazon FBA. Anthony dives into the history of this ranking strategy, clarifying misconceptions and discussing its evolution, while touching on advanced topics related to Amazon algorithms and the role of AI in e-commerce.   The Honeymoon Period Debunked Anthony discusses the origins of the "honeymoon period," a concept he coined around 2015 when data showed unusual ranking activity in Amazon listings around the six-month mark. Initially, it appeared that there was a grace period where rank was closely tied to sales history, leading to faster ranking boosts for new products. However, over the years, as Amazon’s algorithms shifted towards keyword relevance, this phenomenon became outdated. Today, relying on the honeymoon period as a ranking strategy can be risky, as Amazon’s focus is now on more sophisticated factors such as relevance and real-time data.   Understanding Amazon's Cold Start Anthony explains how Amazon's "cold start" period, originally lasting up to seven days, has shortened dramatically. This cold start phase allows the algorithm to gather enough data on a product to understand its relevance, but it is no longer something sellers can easily game. He emphasizes that many outdated strategies, such as manipulating sales velocity during this time, no longer yield the results they once did.   The Importance of Attributes and AI The conversation highlights how attributes—both front-end (keywords, titles) and back-end (image metadata, product details)—are becoming critical to Amazon's ranking engine. Anthony reveals how tools like Amazon's AI-powered Recognition and Comprehend can analyze product images and listings to assess relevancy and performance. Sellers should optimize both their text and images to align with Amazon's ever-evolving search algorithms. Anthony also hints at the future of e-commerce with AI, as more sophisticated machine learning models like Cosmo and AtroBERT help Amazon improve relevance in real-time searches.     Moving Away from Gimmicks Both Danny and Anthony criticize outdated methods like reissuing ASINs to reset rankings or over-relying on past strategies that don’t align with Amazon’s current approach. Instead, they advocate for a focus on product quality and data-driven decisions. As margins become tighter, leveraging tools and understanding Amazon's new algorithmic systems—like knowledge graphs and semantic models—become crucial to winning in a competitive marketplace.   Conclusion Anthony Lee urges sellers to focus on building strong, high-quality products and adopt a data-driven approach to launches, rather than relying on outdated tricks. As Amazon continues to refine its search algorithms, it's essential to stay ahead of the curve by embracing new technologies and methodologies, including AI tools for product optimization.

Product Titles & Descriptions - How Amazon Plan To Take Control In this episode of Sellers Sessions, Max Sinclair discusses major shifts for sellers, focusing on AI-driven personalization and its impact in the coming months. Key Topics: Personalized Product Descriptions Amazon will now dynamically change product titles and descriptions to fit individual customer searches. For instance, if a user searches for “gluten-free cereal,” Amazon’s AI may push that keyword to the front of a title. This shift takes some control away from sellers, raising concerns about SEO and content optimization. Challenges for Sellers Sellers may struggle with these automatic adjustments, as AI-driven changes could remove or rephrase important keywords. While this may feel disruptive, Max suggests that Amazon is implementing these changes because they work better for customers... Only time will tell! AI-Generated Bullet Points Amazon is also using AI to suggest more concise and standardized product bullets. While these edits aim to create consistency, they don’t necessarily focus on increasing conversion rates, which has caused frustration among sellers. Future of AI Agents Amazon is rolling out AI assistants like Amelia, which will help sellers with tasks like tracking metrics and escalating support issues. Max believes that, while these AI tools are still in development, they will soon become powerful resources. The MCM Model Max introduces MCM (Multitask Pre-trained Customer Model), a new AI designed to enhance product recommendations. He predicts it will soon become essential for sellers to understand how it works. Looking for a Free PPC Audit? Visit https://www.databrill.com

Danny and Oana return for part two.

In this episode, Danny goes more in-depth on Fig. 5 of the patent; this time on how it impacts external traffic and how the system punishes giveaways.

Mastering the Cold-Start System and Beyond In this episode, we focus on the other areas cold-start system and how to position new products for long-term success.

We explore key strategies for overcoming the challenges of launching a product without historical user data, including the importance of attributes and machine learning to generate early traction (and impact of AI for matching etc).

Why Giveaways Always Drop Off Giveaways can give an initial boost in rankings, but they often lead to a drop-off once the influx of free traffic ends. We discuss why this happens and the pitfalls of relying too heavily on giveaways, which can create unsustainable patterns that hurt your long-term performance.

External Traffic: The Double-Edged Sword External traffic can boost rankings and visibility, but it can also harm your performance if it brings low-converting visitors. We break down: How good external traffic can help with ranking. Why poor traffic with low conversions can negatively impact your visibility. Best practices for generating high-quality, targeted external traffic that supports long-term growth. Conclusion Effectively managing the cold-start phase, avoiding the trap of unsustainable giveaways, and understanding the impact of external traffic are critical to maintaining strong rankings. By applying these strategies, you’ll boost performance, increase conversions, and avoid common pitfalls in e-commerce ranking systems.

We also cover Gaslighting Ranking and tips on how to avoid it while Oana gives insights on the advertising part of the article. We discuss what is required for a strong ranking strategy relating that to the patents and what main approach to take when launching on Amazon.

The Cold Reality of the Honeymoon Period & External Traffic Part 1 Now let's get to the fun part. Who hasn't heard of the Honeymoon Period? Follow along via video Everyone in the Amazon industry has heard about the so-called "Honeymoon Period," and after years of crafting strategies around an observation (by Anthony Lee in 2015, which he himself, as a very smart man, denounced using scientific literature), it is time for us to try to get closer to the truth. And that is why in the article, you will find references to 15 scientific papers and 2 patents on the A9 Algorithm - the one from 2022 and the updated one from November 2023. Before anyone starts getting concerned about the latest patent update being from almost a year ago, know that semantic matching, BERT, and COSMO will be presented in the article (and Danny's video). The reason is simple: we have the baseline, and what gets added are layers. You will see how the move Using LLMs for processing data and updating rankings in (close to) real-time matches perfectly with the COSMO framework and what RUFUS is currently doing with the results. The scope of the video is to allow you to peek at what is coming and what will be presented in the article, as we will be working around the technical details of what really works when you launch a product on Amazon and what the myths are surrounding the Honeymoon Period phenomenon. * 30-60 day grace period where Oana goes in-depth in this article (I will also cover 7-14 days) * Getting the Honeymoon Period every time * Resetting the Honeymoon Period (with the ASIN deletion) * Having a bad honeymoon period

The point of this is to focus your time and attention on what matters versus theories without scientific data to back them up. In the video, there is only a short intro showing one of the figures presented in the patent; it focuses on the specific moment when a product appears for the first time in search. This image is from the 2023 patent; however, in the article, you will find an in-depth description and comparison between the 2022 and the 2023 algorithm updates as Amazon introduced a more sophisticated method of refining and displaying search results. That will allow you to understand what changed from 2022 to 2023 when it comes to launching products on Amazon and not only that but also ranking and gaining visibility for already established products. The article is the result of many hours of work and recording, going back and forth. As we want to ensure it is easy to read for everyone, technical details are included since we are quoting and writing from scientific literature. But do not worry; there are a couple of things everyone needs to understand that will make things easier without delving into the technical details of how the algorithm works. These are: Prior Predictions Posterior Predictions Prior Predictions using the Bayesian formula Learn these, and you will understand ranking on a whole new level. Follow along via video

Fraser Smeaton: The $50M Amazon Success Story From Losing to Winning Early Years and Career Beginnings Fraser Smeaton’s journey began in the field of Electrical Engineering at university, but his career soon shifted to the corporate world. He spent eight years working in Marketing and General Management roles, where he gained invaluable experience in business strategy and market dynamics. From Side Hustle to Full-Time Entrepreneur In 2009, Fraser started a side hustle that quickly grew into a full-time business. The venture gained rapid traction, going viral within its first year, which led Fraser to leave his corporate job to focus entirely on his new business. Initially, the business was promoted through its website, heavily supported by Facebook advertising, which drove significant growth in the early years. Expansion and Early Challenges As the business grew, Fraser expanded into wholesaling, including becoming an Amazon vendor. This period of expansion, which lasted until 2012, was marked by rapid growth. However, the company soon faced the challenges that come with scaling up. As competition increased and costs soared, the demand for their products began to decrease. The Low Point and Strategic Shift By 2015, Fraser's business faced over £1 million in losses, leading to a workforce reduction by half. Fraser noted that third parties sold their wholesale products on Amazon and decided to sell directly on Amazon to capture retail and wholesale margins and control sales. Refocusing on Amazon Pivoting to Amazon as the main sales channel was pivotal for the company. Success hinged on refining all Amazon-related processes—procurement, logistics, pricing, content, SEO, advertising. Fraser's belief in cumulative small improvements and launching over 150 new products each year drove substantial growth. Navigating the Pandemic The pandemic presented new challenges, particularly as the business struggled while other sectors flourished. However, Fraser’s quick action to control costs and focus on improving internal processes helped the company navigate through this difficult period. Instead of retreating, they used this time to refine operations, setting the stage for future success. Current Success and Business Moat Today, Fraser’s business generates over $50 million annually and employs more than 60 people. The company’s competitive advantage lies in its ability to manage complex operations profitably in a tough category. This expertise has allowed the business to thrive in an increasingly competitive landscape. Looking for a Free PPC Audit? https://www.databrill.com/

Skyrocket Your CTR Like a Boss In this week's episode, Melissa dives into CTR, discussing strategies for improvement and how to fine-tune your testing for a better chance at success. Improving Click-Through Rates (CTR) on Amazon through advertising can significantly boost your product visibility and sales. Today she will discuss three effective strategies: 1.

  5. Monitor Performance Metrics: Track CTR, conversion rates, and other key metrics to determine which versions of your ads are most effective.
  6. Refine and Repeat: Use the insights gained from A/B testing to continually refine and improve your ads.

The Art of War On Amazon Part 4 - Black Hat Sellers & The Dark Triad Introduction Welcome back to Seller Sessions! If you haven't listened to episodes 1 to 3 of The Art of War on Amazon, make sure to check those out, as they provide essential context for this final installment.

In this episode, we're diving deep into the psychology of black hat sellers via the framework of the Dark Triad and how it manifests in the competitive world of Amazon.

Introduction to the Dark Triad Dark Triad Traits: Narcissism, Machiavellianism, and Psychopathy These traits are distinct yet interrelated, often leading to social malevolence. Common themes include emotional coldness, duplicity, and aggression.

Narcissism Definition Narcissism is characterized by grandiosity, a need for admiration, and a lack of empathy.

Traits * Grandiosity and Entitlement: Narcissistic sellers might feel they deserve to dominate the market and believe they are superior to their competitors. * Lack of Empathy: They may not care about the harm they cause to other sellers or the unfairness of their tactics, focusing solely on their own success.

Machiavellianism Definition Named after Niccolò Machiavelli, this trait involves cunning strategies and manipulative behavior.

Traits * Manipulation and Deceit: These sellers use cunning strategies to deceive and sabotage competitors, including fake reviews and false reporting. * Strategic Planning: They meticulously plan their attacks, exploiting loopholes and weaknesses in Amazon's system.

Psychopathy Definition Psychopathy, or antisocial personality disorder, involves a lack of guilt or remorse for harming others.

Traits * Lack of Remorse: Psychopathic sellers may employ ruthless tactics without any moral boundaries. * Impulsivity and Thrill-Seeking: They enjoy the thrill of outsmarting competitors and the power that comes from disrupting other businesses.

We Will Also Cover * Common Tactics * Defending Against Black Hat Sellers * Knowing Your Enemy * The Only Way to Beat Them * Strategic Positioning * Countering Black Hat Attacks in Q4

As the great Sun Tzu said, "In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity."

Understanding these traits and their implications can help you develop strategies to protect your business and navigate the competitive landscape on Amazon more effectively.

Amazon's New AI Ranking Algorithm with Vannesa Hung Host: Adam Heist

Guest: Vannesa Hung

Introduction Welcome back to another episode of the Seller Sessions podcast. In this episode, host Adam Heist delves into the fascinating world of Amazon's AI advancements with Vannesa Hung, a renowned Amazon expert. The discussion centers around Amazon's new AI-driven ranking algorithm, known as Cosmo, and its profound implications for sellers on the platform.

Amazon's AI and the New Ranking Algorithm Adam kicks off the episode by discussing Amazon's significant investment in AI technologies and how it's revolutionizing the ranking algorithm. He mentions Cosmo, a system designed to fundamentally change how products are shown to customers on Amazon. Vannesa, who has a deep understanding of Amazon's backend systems, introduces the concept of Cosmo and its potential impact on sellers.

The Evolution of Listing Optimization Vannesa explains the traditional approach to listing optimization, which focused heavily on keywords. Sellers have historically optimized their titles, bullet points, and backend attributes to rank for specific keywords. This method was based on the premise that Amazon is the largest search engine for products, and success depended on appearing in searches for relevant keywords.

The Shift from Keywords to Context With the introduction of Cosmo, Vannesa highlights a significant shift from a keyword-centric approach to a context-driven model. Cosmo utilizes common sense knowledge to understand products better, going beyond keywords to consider the context and intent behind a search. This means that product listings will need to be enriched with more detailed information to provide a holistic understanding of the product's use and target audience.

Implications for Sellers Vannesa discusses the major implications of this shift for Amazon sellers:

  • Audience Understanding: Sellers need to have a deep understanding of their target audience. This involves knowing their preferences, behaviors, and buying intentions.
  • Enhanced Listings: Listings should now include detailed contextual information. This includes lifestyle images and descriptions that provide context about the product's use and its suitability for different scenarios.
  • Backend Optimization: It's crucial to fill out all relevant attributes in the backend, ensuring that the AI has comprehensive data to work with.

Testing and Preparing for the Future Adam and Vannesa discuss practical steps sellers can take to prepare for this new AI-driven environment:

  • Use AI Tools: Leverage AI tools like ChatGPT to understand your audience better and generate comprehensive listing content.
  • Test Listings: Use Amazon's new listing generator to test how well your product is understood by the AI. This helps identify any discrepancies and allows for adjustments to be made.
  • Monitor Changes: Stay informed about updates from Amazon, particularly those announced at events like Amazon Accelerate, which will feature extensive tracks on AI advancements.

Real-World Examples and Insights Throughout the conversation, Vannesa shares real-world examples from her experiences with clients. She illustrates how changes in listing content and images have led to reclassification of products by Amazon's AI, underscoring the importance of getting the context right.

Conclusion Adam wraps up the episode by emphasizing the dynamic nature of selling on Amazon and the importance of staying ahead of changes. Vannesa reiterates that while keywords remain important, the context provided around them will be the key differentiator in the new AI-driven landscape.

For sellers looking to navigate these changes, Vannesa offers her expertise through her service called Amazon Intelligence, where she helps optimize catalogs based on these new principles.

The Art of War on Amazon (Part 3) Welcome back to Seller Sessions! In this third installment of "The Art of War on Amazon," Danny dives deep into the psychological strategies and leadership principles that can elevate an Amazon business. If you haven’t listened to the first two parts, I highly recommend you do so for better context. Let's explore these insightful principles:

Blaming Your Competitors Locus of Control: This psychological concept differentiates between internal and external perceptions of control. Amazon sellers often fall into the trap of attributing their failures to external factors, such as competitors' pricing. This external locus of control can hinder growth by focusing on barriers rather than improving strategies. Success on Amazon hinges on innovation and customer data—control your actions, not the competition.

Lead by Example, Not Fear True leadership is about modeling the behavior you expect. Inspire your team with hard work, integrity, and dedication, rather than intimidation. Leading with fear breeds resentment and disengagement, while leading by example cultivates respect and loyalty. As the saying goes, "a fish rots from the head down," highlighting the importance of positive leadership.

Never Outsource Well-Being to Social Media Social networks are engineered for attention, often at the cost of mental well-being. While they can be useful for business, they can also lead to doomscrolling and unhealthy consumption of content. Remember, social media is not the real world. It's crucial to maintain a balance and not let it dictate your happiness or productivity.

For Revenge, Dig Two Graves Pursuing revenge harms both the seeker and the target. It feeds anger and bitterness, leading to a cycle of retaliation and conflict. Instead of seeking revenge, focus on your success and personal growth. As Danny puts it, “holding on to anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.”

The World Doesn't Revolve Around You Accountability and hard work are key. When you take responsibility and replace entitlement with effort, you’ll notice positive changes in your results. It's not the world that's changing but your perception and actions. Change begins within, and as you adapt and grow, the world aligns with your progress.

You're Exactly Where You're Meant to Be You are the sum of countless micro-decisions. If you’re not happy with your current situation, identify and understand your patterns. Use critical thinking to break negative cycles. Remember, you are often the common denominator in your experiences, so focus on self-improvement.

Never Communicate Sincerely with the Insincere Engaging with people who have no intention of resolving issues is a waste of time and energy. Recognize crazy-making behavior and avoid getting entangled in it. Sometimes, the best response is silence, preserving your energy for more constructive interactions.

Needs vs. Wants Reflect on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs to understand what truly motivates you. This hierarchy emphasizes the importance of meeting basic physiological and safety needs before pursuing social, esteem, and self-actualization needs. Understanding this can help keep your entrepreneurial drive in perspective.

Optimise for Peace, Not Happiness Happiness is fleeting, but peace can be sustained long-term through self-accountability, self-awareness, and strong boundaries. Cultivate relationships that add value to your life and remove those that don't. Metaphorically, without war, you cannot have peace. It's the struggles that teach you the value of tranquility.

Presence Over Presents Your time and attention are the most valuable gifts you can give. Whether it’s to your loved ones or team members, being present and attentive creates lasting positive impacts. People will always remember how you made them feel.

Hold Down Your Own Power Strong individuals maintain their power and protect others, whereas weak individuals seek to take power from others. By establishing strong boundaries and practicing self-accountability, you become resistant to manipulation and empower yourself.

Conclusion Danny wraps up this session with a teaser for the next and final part of "The Art of War on Amazon." He promises to delve into the psychology of black-hat sellers using the Dark Triad framework, emphasizing the importance of deception in warfare as quoted by Sun Tzu.

Tune in next time as Danny continues to equip Amazon sellers with the strategies needed to navigate and succeed in the highly competitive marketplace. Until then, take these principles to heart and implement them to gain a competitive edge.

In-depth with 8 Figure Amazon Sellers Sim & Jack Introduction Welcome back to Seller Sessions! In this episode, host Danny interviews Sim and Jack, two UK-based entrepreneurs who have built an impressive eight-figure business. Their journey, which began in 2017, is filled with valuable insights and lessons for anyone looking to scale their e-commerce venture.

Getting Started: The Early Days Sim's Story: * Sim shares his beginnings in e-commerce, influenced by his father's old-school marketing business that started in 1977. * Initially, they ventured into eBay around 2004-2005, experimenting with auctions. * By 2008, they began selling on Amazon, where one of their first products remains a best-seller.

Jack's Journey: * Jack, a chartered accountant with a lower risk appetite, joined the company through a family connection, marrying Sim's sister. * His background in big firms and a stint in politics provided a stable foundation for their business.

Building the Business: Key Milestones The Vendor Program: * They entered Amazon’s Vendor Program in 2018, which was a double-edged sword. It offered high volume but low margins and significant operational challenges. * Despite the initial success, it was unsustainable due to the low-profit margins and heavy demands from Amazon.

Covid-19 Challenges: * The pandemic brought unexpected opportunities and challenges. They pivoted to selling PPE but faced issues like price gouging accusations and operational strain. * Lockdown periods forced them to streamline operations, with the core team handling all tasks to keep the business running.

Strategic Changes and Growth Operational Overhaul: * Realizing the inefficiencies in their system, Sim and Jack embarked on a massive reorganization with the help of external consultants. * They attended bootcamps and implemented structured business practices, which were crucial for scaling.

Data and Technology: * They developed a custom product data management system, integrating various data sources to streamline decision-making and operations. * This system helps manage their large catalog and provides insights to optimize their strategy.

Brand and Product Development New Brands: * Sim and Jack are now focusing on developing distinct brands rather than a single umbrella brand, addressing consumer preferences for niche, quality products. * They are particularly excited about a new kitchen brand, leveraging local manufacturing for better cash flow and rapid product development.

Customer Engagement: * Building an email list of 5,500 subscribers has become an integral part of their product validation process. They engage with this community for feedback and product testing, ensuring their offerings meet market needs.

Future Plans Scaling Up: * The goal is to reach higher figures sustainably, focusing on strategic brand building and efficient operations. * They aim to maintain their family business ethos while ensuring it can operate independently in the future.

Community and Networking: * Networking and learning from other successful entrepreneurs have been pivotal. They participate in masterminds and industry events to stay ahead of trends and challenges.

Conclusion Sim and Jack’s journey is a testament to resilience, adaptability, and strategic thinking. From navigating the complexities of Amazon’s programs to leveraging data for informed decisions, their story offers invaluable lessons for aspiring and established e-commerce entrepreneurs alike.

Together, they delve into the critical but often overlooked topic of addressing customer objections, a vital component of successful sales strategies.

Effective Communication and Testing * Continuous Testing and Feedback: Both Danny and Mels highlight the necessity of continuous product testing and gathering feedback to refine product offerings and address emerging customer objections effectively.

One of the Top Amazon Ranking Experts You Haven't Heard Of In an in-depth episode of Seller Sessions, host Danny McMillan sits down with Garfield, a pioneer in understanding and applying the concept of Geo Rank and is way ahead of the curve than most when it comes to ranking on Amazon. This podcast sheds light on how Geo Rank affects sellers and offers a critical look at common misconceptions in the industry.

It has taken four years to get him on Seller Sessions and well worth the wait…

Key Insights from Garfield: * Understanding Geo Rank: Geo Rank does not rely on inventory levels but is driven by local shopping activities following a search. This is a significant shift from the common misconception that inventory levels directly influence rankings. * The Impact of Inventory: Garfield explains that while inventory levels don't drive rankings, they can penalise them if the inventory is too low for the demand in a specific area, thus preventing potential stock-outs and customer dissatisfaction. * Debunking Myths: Many sellers believe that Geo Rank normalises rankings across different regions, but Garfield clarifies that each of the 400-500 geographic zones has unique shopping activities which affect rankings individually. * Localized Advertising: By understanding regional ranking differences, sellers can tailor their marketing strategies to boost visibility and sales in areas where their products are not performing well. * Cost-Effective Campaigns: With detailed insights provided by Geo Rank analytics, sellers can allocate their budgets more efficiently, ensuring that they are not spending on ads in regions where they already dominate the market. * Inventory as a Modifier: If a seller's inventory drops below what is needed to meet the demand for a specific keyword in a locale, Amazon may lower the product's ranking to prevent customer dissatisfaction from unavailability. * Strategic Inventory Management: Effective inventory management becomes crucial to maintaining high rankings in key markets, making it a strategic area of focus for sellers to avoid penalties.

Limitations of Common Tracking Tools: * Single Sample Issue: Most keyword tracking tools used by sellers capture data from a single location or a very limited number of locations. Garfield emphasises that these tools might be reporting ranking data from just one of the approximately 500 geographic zones that Amazon uses. This approach gives a very narrow view of a product's overall performance across the market. * Misleading Data Representation: Because these tools often pull data from random, singular points, they do not accurately reflect the broader performance of a product. For sellers, this can lead to misguided strategies, as they might believe a product performs well universally based on its rank in one zone or poorly based on another. The lack of comprehensive geographic data can lead sellers to allocate their marketing and inventory efforts inefficiently. * Randomised IP Sampling: Tools that do attempt to gather broader data often use randomised IP addresses to scrape Amazon, which might access different geographic data points at each scrape. However, they typically do not control for or even identify from which geographic zone the data comes, leading to a patchwork of information that does not accurately represent any cohesive market performance.

Financial Traps and Underreporting: * Adversarial Nature of Amazon Advertising: Garfield describes the relationship between sellers and Amazon advertising as adversarial, where Amazon aims to maximise its revenue from each click, while sellers strive to minimise cost per click. He warns that tools and metrics provided by Amazon often serve Amazon's interests more than the sellers’. * Brand Share and Impressions: Garfield criticises the use and effectiveness of brand share metrics provided by Amazon. He argues that these metrics are often promoted by Amazon to encourage increased spending without delivering meaningful benefits to sellers. He describes these metrics as "financial traps," suggesting that they are designed to benefit Amazon's revenue goals rather than genuinely helping sellers improve their business performance. * Inaccuracy and Manipulation in Amazon's Data: Garfield criticises Amazon's use of data, noting that it often comes with financial traps and is incomplete or incorrect. He is particularly critical of how Amazon handles impressions in PPC campaigns, explaining that impressions are counted whenever a page is served, regardless of whether the ad is actually seen by consumers. This can mislead sellers into making ineffective optimisations based on skewed data . * Questionable Validity of Search Query Performance: Garfield plans to demonstrate that the data provided under Amazon's search query performance metrics might be misleading. He suggests that Amazon may be withholding information or providing erroneous calculations, affecting sellers' strategies and financial decisions.

The Art & Science of Finding You Top Performers Advanced Insights into Data Analysis and Optimization with Dr. Ellis Welcome to this episode of Seller Sessions, where we dive deep into the nuanced world of data analysis and optimisation with the return of Dr. Ellis. After a hiatus of 18 months, we've brought the good doctor back from the depths of data science to share his wisdom on making advanced decisions using a comprehensive scoring system for Amazon sellers.

Unveiling the Scoring System: A Gateway to Precision Dr. Ellis unveils a sophisticated scoring system designed to navigate the complexities of data, ensuring sellers can identify their top performers across various metrics, including keywords and ASINs. This scoring system isn't just about surface-level data; it delves into the art of analytics, employing fractions, logarithmic scales, and a keen understanding of variables to bring forth actionable insights.

  • The Essence of Scoring: Simplifying complex data into a single, comprehensible score.
  • Variables and Fractions: Introduction of a next-level approach to handling data, emphasising the use of fractions (X over 1 or 1 over X) based on the variable's impact (whether higher or lower is better).
  • Data Compression via Logarithms: A crucial step for dealing with extensive data ranges, ensuring that scores reflect a more accurate value of variables like search volume.

Applying the Scoring System: Practical Insights and Examples Dr. Ellis, with his profound expertise, walks us through the practical application of this scoring system using the example of surfacing important keywords. He illustrates how to score individual variables, compress data, and combine scores to unearth the top performers, providing a detailed blueprint for sellers to emulate.

  • Scores as Fractions: A methodological approach to scoring, where variables are written in a fraction format to maintain consistency and prevent algebraic errors.
  • Compression to Reflect Significance: Utilising logarithmic compression to manage wide-ranging data, ensuring that score increases remain proportional to their actual significance.
  • Zero Score Prevention: A critical adjustment to ensure no valuable data is discarded, by modifying equations to prevent scores of zero.

Advancing Beyond Basic Analytics This session is more than just a tutorial; it's a journey into the fundamentals of data analytics, offering sellers a way to leverage their data beyond the basics. Dr. Ellis highlights the significance of understanding and applying advanced analytics to stay competitive in the ever-evolving Amazon marketplace.

  • Beyond Keywords and ASINs: The scoring system's flexibility allows for its application across various aspects of a business, offering insights into where to focus efforts for maximum impact.
  • Next-Level Approach to Data: The introduction of logarithms, fractions, and multi-report scoring takes common data analysis to the next level, offering a fresh perspective on tackling large sets of data.

Conclusion: Embracing Complexity for Competitive Advantage Dr. Ellis's insights into advanced data analysis underscore the importance of adopting sophisticated techniques to navigate the complexities of Amazon selling. By understanding and applying the principles of scoring and data compression, sellers can gain a competitive edge, making informed decisions that drive success.

Looking Forward: Your Invitation to Advanced Analytics As we wrap up this session, we extend an invitation to our audience to dive deeper into the world of advanced analytics with Dr. Ellis. Your feedback and queries are welcome as we continue to explore topics that provide you with the tools to excel in the competitive landscape of Amazon selling.

The Challenge of Amazon's New Fee

Host Danny McMillan and guest James McConnel Jr. delved into the complexities of Amazon's newly introduced fee structure. James, with over 40 hours dedicated to dissecting this topic, shared his profound understanding, emphasizing not just the increased workload for sellers but the nuanced challenges it presents. This conversation is crucial for Amazon sellers looking to navigate the murky waters of Amazon's fee adjustments with strategic foresight.

Understanding the Fee's Complexity

James McConnel Jr.'s analysis begins with acknowledging the inherent complexity of the new fee. Unlike straightforward increases in FBA or referral fees, this fee intricately ties into a seller's operational workflow, significantly affecting cash flow and demanding a higher level of strategic inventory management. It's not just about adjusting prices to cover increased costs but understanding the mathematical and logistical implications behind the fee structure. The fee's complexity lies in its basis on historical stock levels and its application to future orders, compelling sellers to meticulously plan their inventory levels to avoid penalties.

Strategic Inventory Management and Planning

One of the standout insights from James revolves around the strategic management of inventory levels. The fee calculation, relying on historical data, places immense pressure on sellers to maintain adequate stock levels. This approach by Amazon, while aiming to streamline inventory management, introduces a layer of unpredictability for sellers. It necessitates a shift from reactive inventory management to a more predictive and strategic model. Sellers are advised to not only monitor their current stock levels closely but also to analyze sales trends and forecast future stock needs more accurately.

Navigating Amazon's Calculation Methods

James pointed out the opacity of Amazon's calculation methods for this fee as a significant hurdle for sellers. The fee is computed weekly, with its roots in past inventory levels but does not account for inbound shipments until they're officially checked in. This discrepancy creates a blind spot for sellers, making it challenging to align their inventory strategy with Amazon's fee calculation timeline. It underscores the necessity for sellers to adopt a conservative approach to inventory management, ensuring they have a buffer to account for any delays or inaccuracies in Amazon's stock level calculations.

The Complexity of Parentage and Variation Management

For sellers with products that come in multiple variations, the new fee introduces additional layers of complexity. James emphasized how the fee calculations take into account the entire parent SKU, affecting inventory management decisions for individual child SKUs. This scenario presents a double-edged sword; on one hand, it offers an opportunity to balance stock levels across variations to mitigate fees, while on the other, it risks penalizing sellers for underperformance in just one of the variations. Sellers must meticulously manage their product variations, potentially reorganizing their product listings to optimize for fee efficiency.

James's Inventory Management Calculator

In response to the challenges posed by this new fee, James McConnel Jr. developed a calculator designed to aid sellers in estimating the optimal inventory levels to minimize fees. This tool is a testament to the need for precise and informed decision-making in inventory management. By inputting product dimensions and weight, sellers can receive tailored recommendations on stock levels that balance the risk of incurring the new fee against the costs associated with holding excess inventory. This calculator represents a significant step towards empowering sellers with the data-driven insights needed to navigate Amazon's evolving fee landscape strategically.

Conclusion and Strategic Recommendations

The conversation between Danny McMillan and James McConnel Jr. sheds light on the critical aspects of Amazon's new fee structure, emphasizing the need for sellers to adopt a more analytical and strategic approach to inventory management. The insights shared by James, from the importance of understanding the fee's complexity to strategic inventory planning and the utilization of specialized tools like his calculator, are invaluable for sellers aiming to navigate this new challenge effectively.

Sellers are encouraged to not only digest these insights but to actively engage with tools and strategies that can help them optimize their inventory

levels. The key to success in this new fee environment is a combination of vigilant inventory management, strategic planning, and leveraging available resources to make informed decisions. As the Amazon marketplace continues to evolve, staying informed and adaptable will be crucial for sellers aiming to maintain profitability and operational efficiency.

Advanced Level Landing Page Optimization (Walkthrough) for 2024 In the constantly evolving digital landscape of 2024, landing page optimization remains a pivotal element for online marketing success, especially for Amazon sellers with their own websites. This In-Depth podcast we walk you through the anatomy of an effective landing page, essential design strategies, and the critical nuances that distinguish high-converting pages in 2024.

The Anatomy of a Landing Page Essential Elements: * Headline: This is your primary attention grabber. It should be compelling and succinct, clearly stating what you offer. * Sub-headline: It supports and expands on the headline, adding more context or details. * Single Call to Action/Form: A clear, focused action for users is crucial. This could be a sign-up form, download button, sales inquiry, or product purchase. * Conversion Button Colour: The button should stand out, unique and distinct, not replicated elsewhere on your site. * Minimize Distractions: The page should be free of unnecessary navigational elements, except for a back button, to keep the user focused on the conversion goal. * User Eye Movement: Understanding that users typically scan from left to right in a zigzag pattern is essential. Positioning conversion elements, like forms or buttons, is often more effective on the right-hand side to align with this natural eye movement.

Design and Copywriting Strategies: 1. Experiment with Layouts and Copy: Using a mix of paragraphs and bullet points can make the information more digestible. 2. Capturing Zigzag Eye Movement: Align content to match the typical scanning patterns observed in heat maps. 3. Adhere to the 10 Second Rule: Engage users within the first 10 seconds, including page load time, to prevent them from leaving the site.

Example - Amazon's Product Detail Page (PDP): Amazon's PDP showcases effective button placement and color, aligning with typical user eye movement patterns. While it deviates from the single conversion goal norm, Amazon successfully employs multiple conversion opportunities, though this strategy may not suit all brands.

Not All Landing Pages are Created Equal Long landing pages with flashy, hypnotic text might work for certain products like diet pills, but this approach can be detrimental for premium brands like Apple. Good design equates to trust. Lean copy, high-quality images, and concise language are generally more effective. For more technical products, a combination of video and copy with specialized language may be necessary. The "Keep It Stupid Simple" (KISS) principle often applies here.

Issues with Mobile Mobile optimization is challenging due to limited screen space. The message and design must work together to create a better user experience. This means being concise and ensuring that the design is mobile-friendly. Check out the Seller Sessions Youtube Channel to follow along.

Key Questions for Landing Page Strategy 1. Target Audience: Are they warm, hot, or cold customers? 2. Variations Needed: How many versions of a landing page are required, and for whom? 3. Testing Long and Short Forms: Determining the effectiveness of each in engaging different audience segments.

Targeting Example For Seller Sessions Live Landing Page For paid ads targeting ages 30-55 on desktops, this approach considers that the core audience is likely to engage more deeply with content on a larger screen, especially for higher-priced items. The convenience of switching between tabs for additional research is crucial, less so on mobile. However, a separate mobile campaign can be developed later, targeting users by device.

Conversely, for those entrenched in the Amazon FBA community, landing pages are constructed with an inherent warmth, considering the audience's familiarity with the brand and speakers.

For email campaigns, mobile optimization is crucial as the platform on which customers open emails is less predictable. Subscribers have already shown interest, so the approach is tailored accordingly.

Leveraging Technology for Optimization Browser compatibility is a significant factor in conversion rates. Tools like Browser Stack, which costs about $60 per month, are invaluable. They allow you to test every browser and operating system configuration, identify bugs, and ensure compatibility. The tool’s page tester provides screen grabs across browsers, helping to quickly identify and address issues, a common use for this technology.

Conclusion Don’t let your landing page be a leaky bucket and waste precious time and ad dollars on lazy quick pages, the wins are in the details and the payoff is higher conversion rates.

Amazon’s AI Listing Writer with Brandon Young Reconciliation Score * Amazon uses a reconciliation score on listings to determine which changes to a listing are accepted. This score works like a pyramid, with different levels of authority. * Hierarchy: At the bottom are individual sellers, moving up through professional, gold, platinum, and higher levels including seller support, brand registry, data augmenters, retail, G fix, and FC at the top.

Functionality The entity with the highest reconciliation score on an attribute level (not listing level) gets its changes accepted. If Amazon changes the title, for instance, it doesn't affect the bullet points unless Amazon also has a higher reconciliation score for bullet points.

Seller Strategies: If Amazon changes a listing, and a seller wants to revert or modify it, they need to have a higher reconciliation score. This often involves interacting with the brand registry and sometimes escalating cases to regain control over listing attributes or deleting and rebooting with flat files.

AI Listing Writer * Amazon's Use of AI and GPT: Amazon employs AI and GPT like algorithms to rewrite listings, aiming to improve titles or listings. However, there are unintended consequences, such as inadequate keyword research and indexing, which can hurt seller rankings. * Seller's Use of AI Tools: Brandon Young discusses how they use AI (like GPT) to write listings, but also emphasizes the need for manual intervention. The AI helps in creating listings that sound good, but it often misses including critical keywords for indexing and ranking. * Balance Between AI and Manual Work: While AI tools can do a significant portion of the listing creation, sellers must review and adjust the content to ensure it includes all relevant keywords and complies with Amazon's best practices for listing optimization.

Strategies for Amazon Sellers * Importance of Brand Registry: Having brand registry is crucial as it provides more control over listings and helps in regaining authority from Amazon when it changes listing details. * Keyword Research and Semantic Matching: Deep keyword research and understanding semantic matching are vital. It's not just about having relevant keywords but also about understanding how customers search and the different ways products can be indexed.

This episode provides valuable insights for Amazon sellers, especially regarding navigating the challenges posed by Amazon's AI-driven listing changes and maintaining control over their product listings. It also underscores the importance of a balanced approach, combining AI tools with manual oversight for optimal listing creation and maintenance.

This session promises to be a goldmine for Amazon sellers eager to harness DSP's capabilities to elevate their business.

This includes Amazon-owned and third-party sites, highlighting the platform's extensive reach.

Maximizing Impact with DSP Funnel Strategies The discussion shifts to who benefits from DSP. Elias highlights that brands excelling in PPC can significantly gain from DSP's advanced funnel strategies. He discusses targeting different customer segments, like retargeting, cross-selling, and enhancing brand loyalty, emphasizing the need for creative ad design and Amazon's responsive e-commerce template.

Budgeting in DSP: Minimum Spend and Efficiency Elias touches on an essential aspect of DSP: budgeting and minimum spend. He shares insights from successful campaigns operating with budgets as low as $2000 per funnel segment and advises on strategic fund allocation across DSP components.

Product Categories and DSP Effectiveness In this segment, Elias discusses the varied success rates of DSP across different product categories, stressing the importance of tailored approaches and avoiding generalizations in strategy.

Building and Optimizing DSP Campaigns Elias explains the intricate process of building and optimizing DSP campaigns, emphasizing frequency optimization and bid management to ensure ads reach the target audience effectively.

KPIs and Attribution in DSP Addressing DSP performance measurement, Elias highlights the role of KPIs tailored for different funnel stages and discusses the challenges and solutions in DSP attribution models.

Ads Versus Authenticity: Does PPC Undermine Organic Search Relevance on Search Results? Episode Summary: In this insightful episode of Seller Sessions, Danny McMillan welcomes Elizabeth Greene, an Amazon advertising expert and co-founder of JUNGLR. They delve into the dynamic world of Amazon advertising, discussing the platform's latest changes and what they mean for sellers looking to scale their businesses. From exploring the nuances of PPC strategies to the evolving role of AI in Amazon's ecosystem, this episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to stay ahead in the competitive world of Amazon.

Danny McMillan's Discussion on Amazon's Search Matching System Danny McMillan expands on this by discussing the evolution of Amazon's search matching system. He explains that Amazon initially used a lexical matching system where single words were indexed. Over time, this evolved into semantic matching, which considers the context of the words, and further advanced with the introduction of BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers). BERT enhances the understanding of language, allowing for more human-like interpretations of search queries.

Concerns About Ads in Amazon Search Results Despite these advancements, Danny points out a significant concern: the search results pages on Amazon are increasingly populated with ads. This heavy ad presence pushes down organic search results, potentially conflicting with Amazon's goal of delivering the most relevant search results. Danny questions whether there might be a shift in focus to increase relevance in search results around ads, as Amazon's primary goal is to ensure a great search experience, regardless of whether they come from organic search results or paid ads.

Speculations on the Future of Amazon's Search Relevance He also speculates about the future of Amazon's approach to handling the balance between ad-driven and organically relevant search results. He acknowledges that while there are certain limitations on what keywords can be targeted in ads, the control largely lies with advertisers who are paying for ad placements. This creates a dynamic where the relevance of search results could be at odds with paid ads in terms of overall relevance. Danny suggests that this might lead to customer frustration if they don't receive the level of relevant search results and ponders how Amazon will address this issue going forward… If indeed they will, as this is a massive profit center for them.

Key Topics Discussed: * The Future of PPC on Amazon: Elizabeth shares her thoughts on where PPC is heading in the coming years, including the impact of new tools and features. * Challenges and Opportunities with Amazon Ads: Discussion on the complexities and potential of Amazon's advertising platform, including the importance of data access and budget rules. * Amazon's Algorithm Evolution: Danny and Elizabeth discuss the progression from lexical to semantic matching and the introduction of BERT, exploring its impact on search results and PPC. * Relevance in Amazon Listings: A deep dive into the importance of relevance in product listings and how Amazon's algorithm interprets this. * AI's Role in Enhancing User Experience: The conversation turns to how AI is influencing shopping experiences on Amazon, with a focus on listing optimization and the potential future shifts in strategy. * Optimising Product Images: Insights on the significance of correctly categorising product images for better alignment with Amazon's search algorithm (image attributes).

Recommended Resources: * Junglr Website: Explore the services offered by Elizabeth's Amazon ad agency. * Elizabeth Greene on LinkedIn: Follow Elizabeth for more insights into Amazon advertising.

Conclusion: This episode of Seller Sessions with Elizabeth Greene offers valuable insights into the current trends and future directions of Amazon's advertising landscape. Whether you're a new seller or looking to scale your existing business, understanding these dynamics is crucial for success on the platform.

Key Takeaways * Conversion and traffic are the two main factors of the "Amazon equation" needed to grow and scale * Targeted traffic is key - non-targeted traffic with low relevance won't convert * Align traffic growth with conversion rate to balance advertising costs * Use Product Opportunity Explorer to optimize listings and identify customer preferences * Add virtual bundles, A+ content, comparison charts to increase conversion * Leverage promotions for at-risk customers and cart abandoners * Optimize organic rankings with external traffic and targeted PPC * Analyze category insights and keyword research to scale PPC efficiently

Optimizing Listings for Conversion Mansour shares various tips for optimizing Amazon product listings:

  • Use the Product Opportunity Explorer to identify key purchase drivers, customer insights and topics from reviews to inform listing optimization. Add these details throughout the listing - title, bullets, images etc.
  • Assess Listing Quality score using Helium10 to evaluate areas for improvement.
  • Create virtual bundles to cross-sell products, take up competitor space and increase order value. Ensure bundles receive positive reviews.
  • Feature Brand Story to share your brand narrative visually with lifestyle imagery.
  • Upgrade to premium A+ content for additional features like video and quizzes.
  • Add comparison charts in A+ to showcase products.
  • Use coupon codes - even on non-promotional products - to trigger increased conversion via badges. Ensure codes don't stack negatively.

Driving Targeted Traffic When scaling advertising, Mansour emphasizes monitoring conversion rates and being disciplined with budgets to maintain profitability. He outlines a few key traffic driving tactics:

  • Leverage the new Customer Loyalty analytics for tailored promotions - target customers in various tiers or those who recently abandoned cart.
  • Create Amazon Posts to garner impressions and potential sales from seasonal or evergreen lifestyle content.
  • Balance paid and organic traffic growth to efficiently improve organic rankings long-term. Avoid saturating search with irrelevant gift traffic that won't convert.
  • Follow niche trends in Product Opportunity Explorer and adjust budgets seasonally to match market demand rather than goal-setting in isolation. Compare category insights for market share benchmarking.
  • Conduct thorough keyword research combining Product Opportunity Explorer parent categories, Brand Analytics search data and performance metrics like click share % to identify the optimal search terms to target.

Mansour reminds us not all keywords are equal and many low commercial intent keywords that drive mainly browsing aren't worth aggressive paid targeting.

A9 Bot - How To Get The Most Out Of Your Listing Optimisation In this informative episode of Seller Sessions, host Danny McMillan gives listeners an inside look at the A9 Bot available exclusively through his website. This specialised bot aims to help sellers better grasp Amazon's ever-evolving A9 ranking algorithms and optimisation factors by synthesising key learnings from extensive scientific literature and patents.

Laying the Groundwork Around A9 Understanding Before demonstrating the A9 Bot tool itself, Danny emphasises how this fits into his broader mission to equip Amazon sellers with more technical competency on the inner workings of Amazon search. He’s compiled and working through 1234 scientific papers and has written at depth on subjects sellers may find confusing or conflicting when trying to rank higher.

  • Understanding Product Photos and How Attributes Really Work
  • How Amazon Protects Answers to Product Questions Using Similar Products
  • The Real Reason Why A10 is a Myth
  • Improving Seasonal Relevance and Ranking on Amazon Search

This scientific grounding informs the A9 Bot's capabilities for listing optimisation tied to ranking factors. Danny emphasises digesting this background will prove useful for sellers aiming to "level up" their Amazon search education.

Introducing Key Match Types: Lexical vs. Semantic vs. BERT Contextual As Danny shifts into demonstrating the tool itself, he starts by outlining three key match types critical to understand:

  1. Lexical Matching
  2. Semantic Matching
  3. BERT Contextual Matching

While lexical matching should remain core to any keyword targeting strategy, Danny urges sellers not to limit themselves to only indexing keywords. The semantic and BERT matches within A9 paint a fuller picture of what customers may search for — and how listings can evolve to reach more searchers.

Seeing the A9 Bot in Action: Listing Rewrites To illustrate the bot's capabilities, Danny provides a demo using a beard oil product as an example. He prompts the bot to rewrite the listing bullets targeting first lexical matches, then semantic matches, and finally keyword matches informed by BERT's contextual analysis.

The output shows clear differences highlighting how each match type shapes results. The lexical rewrite sticks closest to exact keyword matches in the original beard oil listing. Meanwhile the semantic match incorporates more contextual phrases that extend meaning like beard grooming and shaping tools. Finally, the BERT rewrite recognises entities and relationships to recommend additional keywords around skin conditioning, packaging format, and product feel during application.

This small demo begins to showcase how tapping scientific advances in language AI can assist sellers in reaching more customers. While their manual testing and listing quality control remains imperative, leveraging innovations like BERT as an input can spur new optimisation ideas.

Key Takeaways and Parting Thoughts In concluding his A9 Bot intro, Danny shares a few final recommendations:

  • Use provided prompts to experiment rewriting your own listings with lexical, semantic, and BERT matches
  • Check his site’s “A9 Algorithm” section for articles dispelling myths plus evolving science around ranking factors
  • Recognise sellers optimise for conversion while Amazon algorithms focus on customer experience first
  • Avoid overstuffing listings with keywords without considering user experience

With innovations in contextual language understanding racing ahead, Danny emphasises sellers must stay on the pulse of Amazon advancements to remain competitive in organic search. Tools like the A9 Bot point to a future where semantic search capabilities will only grow more advanced. Though testing and high-quality listings remain essential, embracing these new frontiers in AI can help uncover more opportunities.

3 Types of Amazon Sellers 1. Ignorance Sellers: Try stuff without much strategy, hope for the best. 2. Arrogant Sellers: Copy competitors thinking they know better. 3. Vigilant Sellers: Build on consumer insights and real selling fundamentals.

Understanding the Amazon Algorithm * BERT algorithm understands search intent, customer persona/journey better. * Search results will be tailored more to individual searcher. * Recommendations are already customised to user. Search will follow. * Amazon wants to match real world experience better.

Adapting to the Changes Can still succeed in saturated market with the right approach: know your customer + selling fundamentals.

The Iceberg Analogy * Most fighting happening "above water" on Amazon right now. * By going deeper below surface there is calm and less competition. * This represents focusing on consumer insights and the lost art of selling.

  • Know their persona, journey stage, needs
  • Ask pointed questions
  • Craft sales pitch

Types of Amazon Shoppers Different groups have different needs. Most sellers focus only on "need based" shoppers. But many other opportunities exist. Be creative.

Connect on an Emotional Level * Surface features don't create enough certainty and trust. * Tap into beliefs, objections, and emotions. * Storytelling and visual patterns are powerful.

Focus on the Buyer, Not You or the Product * Avoid self-focused messaging. * Put yourself in the customer's shoes. Talk to them directly.

In this episode, we engage in a conversation with Paul Nicol about the tumultuous journey of his life in and around Amazon. Paul hails from humble beginnings in Scotland and was predominantly raised by his grandparents. As a child, Paul was reserved and found solace in martial arts. He spent several years in the corporate world before realizing he yearned for more autonomy. While short contracts and some flexibility were appealing, he craved something greater.

Paul's introduction to Amazon marked a turning point. In private, he made a bold move, investing $4,000 from the family savings, as failure was not an option. At the time, $4,000 represented a substantial sum for his family.

As he gained momentum, Paul poured more and more of his time into Amazon. In 2020, he launched a line of hand sanitizers well before the March surge. Describing its success as remarkable would be an understatement. Despite frequently adjusting prices to maintain inventory, demand remained robust, with some customers willing to pay over $200 due to the prevailing panic.

Subsequently, a buyer approached Paul, and they finalized a deal. However, what followed was less than favorable. Issues emerged post-deal, primarily concerning the product listing, leaving the buyer dissatisfied. The situation deteriorated rapidly, with Paul facing the looming threat of a multi-million-dollar lawsuit. As the problems escalated, so did the stakes.

Fortunately, a turning point arrived, and they managed to find common ground, ultimately opting to collaborate in resolving the issues. Paul went as far as setting aside personal matters to become a paid consultant for the venture.

To learn more, be sure to explore this episode and discover firsthand the lessons gleaned from navigating such challenging situations.

Maintaining Your Health During the Stressful Q4 Season: Insights from Amazon Sellers

The Q4 season is a crucial time for Amazon sellers, with increased competition and sales targets to meet. However, it's important to prioritise your health during this time to avoid burnout and maintain productivity.

  1. Prioritise exercise

Exercise is key for maintaining your health during the Q4 season. Matt Phipps, an Amazon seller and fitness enthusiast, shared that exercise is crucial for his daily routine. It helps him stay clear-headed, productive, and connected to the world. By prioritising exercise, you can reduce stress, improve your mood, and boost your energy levels. Phil Hadfield, another Amazon seller and health advocate, also emphasised exercise's importance in reducing anxiety and depression, common issues faced by Amazon sellers during Q4. Incorporating exercise into your routine improves overall health and well-being.

  1. Take breaks and rest

Taking breaks and resting is vital for maintaining your health during Q4. Danny McMillan, the host of the Seller Sessions podcast, noted that many guests recommended breaks and rest to prevent burnout. Though it may seem counterintuitive during a busy season, giving your body and mind time to recharge is essential. By taking breaks and resting, you can reduce stress, improve focus, and boost productivity. Preventing burnout has long-term positive effects on your health and business. Prioritise rest by taking short walks, meditating, or napping during Q4.

  1. Get enough steps

Getting enough steps is another important aspect of maintaining your health during Q4. Danny McMillan noted that even during the busiest times, it's important to prioritise movement and physical activity. Even on vacation, you may end up getting more steps than when working from home. Sufficient steps improve cardiovascular health, reduce stress, and boost energy levels. They also prevent health issues like obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Incorporate movement into your routine by taking walks during lunch breaks, using a standing desk, or taking the stairs instead of the elevator.

  1. Address common health issues

Addressing common health issues faced by Amazon sellers during Q4 is crucial. Phil Hadfield discussed issues such as back pain and eye strain caused by long hours of sitting and screen time. He recommended stretching and moving around during breaks and using blue light filters to reduce eye strain. By addressing these issues, you can prevent long-term health problems and improve overall well-being. Invest in an ergonomic chair, take regular stretch breaks, and use blue light filters on screens to address any health issues you may face.

Conclusion:

Maintaining your health during the Q4 season is crucial for avoiding burnout and maintaining productivity. Prioritise exercise, take breaks and rest, get enough steps, and address common health issues to take care of your body and mind during this busy time. Remember, your health is your most valuable asset, and taking care of it will ultimately benefit your business in the long run. By incorporating these tips into your daily routine, you can maintain your health and well-being during the Q4 season and beyond.

Key Points: * Unethical behavior by some aggregators in the Amazon space is a growing concern. * Sellers need to be cautious when sharing sensitive information and should read NDAs carefully. * Not all aggregators engage in unethical practices, and many have brought benefits to sellers. * Staying true to your brand's authenticity can help navigate competition and protect your business.

In a recent conversation between Danny McMillan, an Amazon expert, and Ryan Adkins, an experienced seller, they delved into the murky waters of unethical behavior by some aggregators in the Amazon space. This issue has been a growing concern for many sellers who have had their business models replicated or even stolen. Ryan shared his personal experience of being approached by an aggregator, only to discover later that one of their employees had started a competing brand using the same products and suppliers. This situation highlighted the difficulty of proving intent behind such actions, especially when there is a lack of concrete evidence. The incident underscored the importance of keeping sensitive information confidential. When dealing with aggregators, it's crucial to read Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) carefully. These documents should clearly outline what information can be shared and how it can be used. If not handled properly, this could lead to significant damage to your business. Ryan's experience also shed light on the impact such situations can have on a seller's business. It's a stark reminder of the need for sellers to protect themselves and their intellectual property. However, it's important to note that not all aggregators engage in such unethical behavior. As Danny pointed out, the industry as a whole has been beneficial for many sellers. The rise of aggregators has provided opportunities for sellers to exit their businesses profitably and has brought more professionalism and structure to the marketplace. Despite these benefits, the challenges of competition remain. Sellers must stay vigilant and ensure they are protecting their brands. One way to do this is by staying true to your own brand and authenticity. In a competitive market like Amazon, authenticity can set you apart and help build a loyal customer base. In conclusion, while the Amazon space offers immense opportunities, it also comes with its share of challenges. Unethical behavior by some aggregators is a concern that sellers need to be aware of. However, with the right precautions and a strong commitment to your brand's authenticity, you can navigate these challenges successfully.

Prime Eligibility: It's claimed that Amazon conditions a seller's ability to have their products marked as "Prime" on using Amazon's fulfilment service, which can be costly.

Search Result Biases: There are concerns that Amazon might be prioritising its own products in search results, even if other products are of better quality.

High Fees for Sellers: The FTC points out that Amazon charges various fees to sellers, which can amount to nearly 50% of their total revenues.

Degrading the customer experience by replacing relevant, organic search results with paid advertisements—and deliberately increasing junk ads that worsen search quality and frustrate both shoppers seeking products and sellers who are promised a return on their advertising purchase.

Amazon’s surmised response?

Amazon is contesting a lawsuit filed by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), arguing that the lawsuit is misguided and would, if successful, harm consumers and the many businesses that sell on Amazon.

  1. Customer-Centric Innovations:

  2. Amazon believes its innovations and customer-centric focus have benefited consumers through low prices and increased competition in the retail industry.

  3. The company has cooperated with the FTC in the past and respects its role in protecting consumers and promoting competition.

  4. Misguided Lawsuit:

  5. The current lawsuit by the FTC is seen as a radical departure from its role, with Amazon arguing that it is misguided and would force Amazon to engage in practices that actually harm consumers and businesses, such as featuring higher prices and making Prime more expensive and less convenient.

  6. Allegations of Anticompetitive Practices:

  7. The FTC alleges that Amazon's pricing practices, Fulfilment by Amazon offering, and Amazon Prime are anticompetitive, revealing a fundamental misunderstanding of retail by the Commission.

  8. Amazon argues that its model is pro-competitive, and the lawsuit could negatively impact consumers and businesses selling on Amazon.

  9. Low Prices and Competitive Offers:

  10. Amazon is proud of the low prices and competitive offers it provides to customers and has enabled third-party businesses to sell their products alongside Amazon’s.

  11. The company invests in tools and education to help third-party businesses offer competitive prices and does not highlight or promote offers that are not competitively priced.

  12. Support to Independent Sellers:

  13. Amazon has lots independent businesses selling on its platform and provides support and services to help them succeed.

  14. The company has invested billions in resources and services to support sellers at every stage of their journey, providing them with data, insights, and various features to manage their businesses effectively.

  15. Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA):

  16. FBA is an optional service where Amazon handles product storage, packaging, shipping, returns, and customer service, allowing sellers to focus on growing their businesses.

  17. Amazon argues that FBA is competitively priced and offers significant benefits to independent businesses, contributing to job creation and investments in the economy.

  18. Innovation and Amazon Prime:

  19. Amazon continues to innovate to delight customers, with Prime being a prime example, offering more than just free shipping.

  20. The company has invested in making Prime better for customers, achieving faster shipping speeds and allowing sellers to offer Prime shipping on their own sites, which has been beneficial to both consumers and sellers.

  21. Thriving Retail Industry:

  22. Amazon operates in a vibrant and varied retail industry where over 80% of all retail products are still bought in physical stores.

  23. The company argues that the FTC’s complaint grossly mischaracterizes the retail industry and ignores the dynamic competition that benefits consumers, with numerous options available to consumers and sellers.

  24. Amazon sees itself as a part of a massive and robust retail market and not as a monopolistic entity, with the FTC attempting to narrowly define markets to make Amazon appear more dominant than it is.

  25. Commitment to Consumers and Sellers:

  26. Amazon is proud of its role in spurring low prices, innovation, and competition across retail.

  27. The company fundamentally disagrees with the FTC’s allegations and approach to antitrust, vowing to contest the lawsuit and continue inventing to put consumers and businesses first.

  28. Amazon believes that the FTC’s approach, if successful, would harm consumers, hurt independent businesses, and upend long-standing and well-considered doctrines.

Final Summary:

Amazon is defending its practices and innovations, asserting that they have always been in favor of consumers and sellers, providing low prices, options, and competition in the retail market. The company sees the FTC lawsuit as fundamentally flawed, misrepresenting the retail industry and Amazon’s role in it. Amazon is committed to contesting the lawsuit, maintaining that the success of the FTC in this case would result in anti-consumer and anti-competitive outcomes, harming both consumers and the independent businesses selling on Amazon.

Starting out on eBay: Inspired by the success of big clothing brands like Boohoo, Adam began his selling journey on eBay, primarily focusing on women's clothing due to the availability from manufacturers.

  • Learning the ropes: With limited knowledge about clothing styles, Adam had to learn from others in the industry and adapt to the demands of the market.

  • Expanding to Amazon: Adam eventually expanded his clothing business to Amazon, alongside his existing shoe business. Sales quickly skyrocketed, leading to the need for recruiting more staff for efficient picking and packing.

  • Dealing with challenges: Adam faced the issue of hijacked listings and price undercutting by other sellers. This prompted him to explore Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA), which resulted in significant revenue growth.

  • European expansion: Seeing the potential for growth, Adam expanded his business to different European countries, translating listings for each market and experiencing unprecedented sales numbers.

  • Discovering new opportunities: Attending the Retail Without Borders trade event in early 2020, Adam stumbled upon new opportunities and learned about selling on multiple platforms. He successfully transitioned between inventory management systems.

In this episode, Sharon explains the five stages of a product's life cycle in the context of selling on Amazon FBA. She emphasises the importance of understanding the product life cycle and provides tips on how to extend the life cycle of a product.

Sharon starts by comparing the life cycle of a product to the life cycle of humans or animals. She explains that every product goes through a journey from its launch to its eventual decline or discontinuation. On Amazon FBA, the product life cycle typically consists of five stages: development, introduction, growth, maturity, and decline.

During the development stage, the product is being sourced, manufactured, and prepared for sale on Amazon. The introduction stage is when the product is launched in the marketplace, and Sharon advises focusing on differentiation and branding during this stage to ensure acceptance by the market.

The growth stage indicates that the product is gaining acceptance and experiencing faster sales growth. Sharon mentions the importance of organic ranking, profitability, and positive cash flow during this stage.

The maturity stage can vary in duration and is characterised by market saturation and the presence of copycats. Sharon highlights the need to focus on branding and differentiation to extend the product life cycle during this stage.

Sharon concludes by emphasising the significance of branding and building a brand around a specific niche or buyer avatar. She suggests dominating within a niche and using branding to extend both the product and brand life cycle.

Factory Red Flags with Steven Selikoff

Welcome to Seller Sessions where we talk about real experiences from the world of manufacturing and commerce. In this episode, we're joined by Steven Selikoff who shares his recent, eye-opening trip to China. From the unsavory revelations about illegal labor to an awe-inspiring visit to an ultra-modern manufacturing hub, Selikoff provides a unique, insider perspective on the reality of today's factory landscape in China.

Key points:

  1. Factory Transparency: Steven Selikoff emphasises the importance of thoroughly inspecting factories, including the office and showroom, production floor, quality assurance, and shipping warehouse. This is essential in assessing the factory's practices and potential clientele.
  2. Labor Issues: Selikoff recounts a startling experience where he discovered a factory was potentially employing illegal labor. A "showcase" factory was used to impress auditors and customers, while another hidden factory carried out the actual production. The scenario highlighted potential issues like forced labor or child labor in some factories.
  3. Modern Factory Practices: In stark contrast, Selikoff also shares his experience at a large, modern factory where high-quality, ethical production practices are followed. This factory demonstrated effective use of automation, strict quality control, and a clean, organized work environment, illustrating the strides China is making towards modern manufacturing.
  4. Cost vs Ethics: The anecdote brings to light the ethical considerations businesses must keep in mind when choosing their suppliers. Cheaper costs can sometimes point to unethical labor practices, and it's important to thoroughly vet potential factories.

Final Summary:

This podcast episode offers a compelling glimpse into the realities of factory operations in China, as told by Steven Selikoff. From the alarming discovery of potential illegal labor practices to the promising strides towards modern, ethical manufacturing, his experiences underline the importance of due diligence and ethical considerations in global commerce.

Egle has been a frequent guest on our show and has also appeared on other platforms. While her journey may not have followed the traditional success story, it's important to shed light on the challenges entrepreneurs face. So, let's dive into the compelling parts of Egle's story and explore the lessons we can learn.

Key Points:

  1. The prelude to the exit: Egle was approached to start selling her business in December 2021, and everything seemed promising. However, their main seller faced issues due to a catalogue error in the Amazon system, leading to a significant loss in revenue. Despite working with aggregators and consultants, they struggled to overcome the obstacles.
  2. The impact of COVID-19: Just as they managed to resolve the listing issue, the COVID-19 pandemic struck. Since their business focused on office supplies, their customer base suffered as people transitioned to remote work. This further added to their challenges, making survival seem like a daily struggle.
  3. The decision to continue or shut down: Faced with mounting debts and the need to invest in new ventures, Egle and her business partner had to make a difficult choice. They consulted with experts and realised that although their business had flatlined, it still had potential for growth post-pandemic. They decided to persevere and wait for better times.

Final Summary:

Egle's story highlights the harsh realities entrepreneurs can face, even in favourable circumstances. Despite setbacks, Egle and her team chose to weather the storm and find opportunities within the adversity. By stabilising their business, optimising their strategies, and leveraging the understanding of aggregators, they held on, believing that their industry would eventually recover. This tale reminds us that entrepreneurship is a rollercoaster journey, and success often requires resilience and the ability to adapt to unexpected challenges.

Paul Harvey returns and chat about some of the nuances of TikTok ads that will be useful for sellers.

Amazon does not index TikTok traffic (evident from no changes to the sessions and conversion rate).

Amazon Attribution's tracking metrics cannot be relied upon.... either TikTok negates the tracking or Amazon does not track it.

The only metric we can rely upon is SALES. There is a sales impact from TikTok traffic, often around 30-40%, but the effect is either immediate or delayed by days, weeks even months.

Loved sports but undersized and thus went out for the wrestling team as a Freshman in high school. Rough start, 1 win and 19 losses in year one. Loved the sport and went all-in round the calendar and two years later won a state championship.

Took that winning mindset to business. In 2002, upon graduating college, while taking a year off before law school, started a direct sales company. Training others to run their own business, Justin moved to England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Poland before returning to the US in 2015. Today that sales force spans 15 countries, generating north of $1bn in revenue and donations for the largest for-profit and non-profit companies in the Western world.

After a failed attempt at early retirement in which he had planned on becoming a full time investor, at a time during Covid when e-commerce was flying, Justin saw a gap in the market for top tech solutions servicing the professional seller and other large brands on Amazon and formed Carbon6.

Carbon6 has combined successful serial entrepreneurs, some of the greatest minds in the Amazon community and accomplished career SaaS professionals to create the ecosystem for the professional marketplace seller. The mission is to simplify success online.

Launching on Amazon In The EU In 2023 (Roundtable)   In this session we talk about all areas of launching in the EU, from compliance, VAT, Taxes, what products to launch from your brand catalogue and how to target correctly without wasting time on products that will simply not work. We will discuss translations, multi language keywords, launching and getting reviews.   With me on the panel is Mel (AVASK) whom heads up a multi national Tax empire, 7 figure seller Fe Soutter, translations whizz Jana Krekic whom manages around 100 translations in many, many languages.   Jana Krekic is the founder and CEO of YLT Translations, the largest Amazon-centric localization firm in the space today. An international public speaker, polyglot and a translator herself, Jana has considerable knowledge and experience in e-Commerce and Amazon, which she has - and continues to - leverage on to help 7- to 9-figure businesses expand on a global scale.

She heads around 80 native speakers, who take content and localise it to convert and engage in a seller's target country. Each translator is well-versed in Amazon's dynamic and ever-changing landscape, and can perform the keyword research and write the copy needed to improve conversions and engagement.

The result is a localisation firm that transposes and transcreates content to maximise conversion and engagement. Clients range from medium-sized enterprises ready to take the plunge to global expansion, to eCommerce monoliths seeking to spread their footprint.

Melanie Shabangu-Katsari Melanie Shabangu is a highly experienced and qualified professional with over 20 years in the field of Global Expansion, Tax Advisory, and Accounting. 

As a Partner at AVASK Accounting & Business Consultants and other successful multi-million-dollar businesses, she has built a thriving global enterprise that supports e-commerce sellers in realizing their full online business potential. 

With her expertise in the e-commerce industry, she not only guarantees clients' tax compliance but also brings innovative growth solutions to drive their businesses forward.

Fe Soutter After leaving a teaching career in 2008, Fiona Soutter saw the opportunity to establish an online business. The mother of three was drawn to the idea of being a ‘digital nomad’ - she wanted the flexibility of working anywhere, anytime.

Fiona dedicated her efforts to learning about the world of digital marketing. She founded a consultancy business, spoke at events, and published books. 

However, a car accident in 2014 derailed Fiona’s progress, and she had to fight through years of chronic pain and all that came with it to re-establish herself.

In 2020, Fiona launched her e-commerce business. By combining her accumulated skills with a powerful purpose, she developed a brand that resonated with her audience, which resulted in her being able to create a multiple 7-figure business within 18 months. Fiona is now three years into her e-commerce journey and is now close to launching in the EU.

Amazon Exits in 2023 - Roundtable (The Brokers) Today I am joined by Michal Baumwald Oron, Ben Leonard and Chris Shipferling. We had a golden run from late 2019 until the beginning of 2022 (exits) when deals across the industry dried up almost overnight. Then in March (2022) we started to see the public layoffs across the aggregators and less money being raised across the board. As the multiples came down, sellers started to focus their energy on growth and now we are starting to see signs of an uptick of deals getting done again. Today we discuss some of these trends with brokers that get to see everything across the board, not just deals done with aggregators but also private buyers in the market. Michal Baumwald Oron, CEO, and co-founder of Fortunet, a leading investment banking firm specialising in e-commerce. With 25+ years of experience as an executive manager, investment banker, and commercial lawyer in senior positions at international leading brands, Michal has led major public offerings, including initial public offerings (IPOs) and follow-on offerings, as well as M&A global transactions and joint ventures. Ben Leonard is the classic millennial entrepreneur. He built a business on a laptop, in a cupboard, in his spare time. The difference? Ben grew an international 7-figure business and successfully exited after 3 years; the business holy grail. Now Ben is doing it all over again, and helping others to do the same with his e-commerce brokerage (EcomBrokers.co.uk) who help sellers sell now, or will mentor you to the perfect exit. ……………………………………………………………………………….

Today I am joined by Sharon Even, Kian Golzari and Adam Hiest to discuss a way at looking at product research from a basis of true needs.   Food, water, clothing, sleep, and shelter are the bare necessities for anyone’s survival.

Steve Simonson joins me today,  to chat about the current climate and the impact on sellers. Patterns often repeat themselves, focussing on PNL per product and dialling in on the products with a strong profit profile. With consumer uncertainty, we need to focus on “not being” over leveraged, turning trash into cash and being lean on inventory. Rigouse economic scrutiny is a must and budgeting by justifying and approving all expenses for each accounting period, rather than basing it on your past spending.

Why Ranking Premium Priced Products Is A Misnomer

Today I breakdown Premium Priced Products and why most of the time they fail to get, or maintain the top three keyword placements.

This is one of the most common issues sellers face when speaking to them. 

They ask me either in person or online. "Why is my product is not converting" 

I ask them, to do a search with their main keywords and 9 times out of 10, their product is priced higher than the average price of the page and / or the top three positions. Normally 50% or more...

So we broke down some of the key data points to explore this.

Childhood wasn't easy but it helped Alina understand who she was and what she had to offer the world early on in her life. Starting Church of Music was really a culmination of all of her life's experiences combined into one. She brought over 10 years of supply chain logistics, recycling, and reverse logistics along with business development skills. Her experience in working in software IP, helping Flagship IP in software patent monetisation and enforcement, helped her with the legal side of CoM. Her extensive experience in starting and being part of startups for the past 6 years, contributed to helping her understand the process as well as the structure for building something from ground up. And of course her global MBA from Columbia University, London Business School, and Hong Kong university didn't get in the way either. Her classical piano training since the age of 5, helped her understand music on a deeper level and create a sound for CoM that truly resonates with people of all ages, colours, backgrounds, and religions. Alina truly believes music is one of the biggest forces on this planet that can unite people and raise their vibration through sound and movement, which ultimately leads to healing and love!

In today's episode of Sharon Even talks about The Pros and Cons of Prime day for Amazon Sellers. With the increase of cost in selling physical products, participating in prime day exclusive deals (which must be at least 20% off your price), doesn't make sense for everyone.... neither does participating in HUGE increased CPCs.... plus Amazon is pushing their own brands more than ever..... and Buyer intent goes down whilst so many people are window shopping. So what do we do? Sharon talks exactly about this and how past data available to you and knowing what is more important to you and your brand (profitability/brand awareness etc) can help you to make business first decisions.

I join Izabela on her show to discuss consistency, as Seller Sessions hits 900 episodes we talk about all areas in life where consistency plays a role. Everyone gets the same 24 hours in the day, and in life and business you have a few non-negotiable. Where you put your energy and for how long is important, you can be consistent watching Netflix or the News, but they will not yield you any returns.

Consistency develops discipline, and when the initial motivation runs out (which it will) it is the discipline that takes over. As entrepreneurs, nothing follows a linear curve and on the days you are not on your game - you do it anyway! This is what separates you from the pack, as discipline and consistency does not care about your feelings. This is why it is so important to focus on things you enjoy, as it will almost be impossible to stick to it. 

You will never be good, or top tier in what you do, when you are up against people that live and breathe it. They will always outwork you, out smart you and out earn you. As for them, it is child's-play but for you, it’s a chore.

Today I bring in Steven Selikoff to discuss the possibility of a strike happening as the Longshoremen agreement expires soon (ca). With shipping companies making $190 Billion in profits last year alone. This could be a tough stand off for the union, and the employees that do the back breaking and dangerous work, around the clock, for national average salary for $54,439.The shipping companies increased prices sevenfold last year. During the same time, the Longshoremen worked through a pandemic on the same money.

You do not want your products sitting on a ship caught in a backlog, or worse, stuck offshore if a strike hits. The 2014 Christmas slowdown shows that the longshoremen know the leverage they have by causing supply chain problems during the Holidays.

This is the topic of discussion today, and some workarounds if the work case scenario happens.

Steven Selikoff is a serial entrepreneur who has been developing innovative products since 2005. His products have been sold through Amazon Vendor & Amazon Marketplace, in independent & specialty retailers, and in big box stores all over the world. He has four patents, has had products on every major morning show from the Today Show to Fox Business News, featured in newspapers and in magazines ranging from USA Today to Forbes to Vogue, and were even in the gift bags at the Oscars.

Steven was formerly Global Business Manager for Microsoft Worldwide Retail Sales & Marketing, and has taught and has lectured on Negotiation, Product Development, and Business Process Improvement across the globe. He is the author of The COMPLETE BOOK of Product Design, Development, Manufacturing & Sales, which has sold over 60,000 copies, and is now used as a textbook in major universities.

Steven recently founded the Product Development Academy, which teaches entrepreneurs how to develop and sell unique products – yet like thousands of others, Steven still loves producing and selling his own unique products as well.

The topics will be chosen and decided by the participants (including you!) during the first hour of the event.

Rather than following a predetermined schedule that might not work for everyone, we will invite you, experienced sellers and experts, to share your expertise and insights, as well as to get advice on your current challenges.

On the episode I bring in Dan Ashburn and Adam Heist to discuss some of our views and observations on the changes over the last few years.

A lot of seller at the top of search have sold, whilst a good chunk come back as sellers, and some as service providers over time... And with the higher walls built around selling on Amazon, is there a shift in volume; of new people coming through? Sometimes, in our community we forget we are in an echo chamber. Of course, there will be plenty of sellers that do not engage directly within and some do not even know it is there as they do not listen to podcasts, Facebook groups or attend networking events.

Adam Heist

Adam "Heist" Runquist first discovered the Amazon marketplace 4 years ago after being on the executive team of a leading outdoor products brand. After taking that business from 8 to 9 figures - and discovering the power of marketplace channels and physical products brands in the process - Adam has since started, sold and invested in multiple Amazon native brands. In addition to leading and launching his own brands, Adam runs the YouTube Channel “Adam Heist” and is an investor and advisor to Amazon aggregator D1 Brands (who just raised $123M).

Dan Ashburn

Dan and his industry-leading team are responsible for delivering 8-figures in annual sales on Amazon. Operating in online marketing for 17 years, Dan is an international speaker, advisor and co-founder of Titan Network.

On Thursdays with Sharon Even we welcome Christina Passmore, Founder of Christina Ink, to discuss the importance of Social Media Marketing for scaling an Amazon FBA business. Christina discusses the importance of Social Strategy, the benefits of effective social media management, and some great tips to help sellers leverage the best content across multiple channels.

About Christina:

Christina ditched her luxury airline lifestyle at 40 to start selling on Amazon to test her determination. In 2019 she sprung into action and carved out a 6 figure beauty brand that even some of the biggest names in the Amazon space couldn't believe possible for someone with no experience. Her secret weapon? Unlike most Amazon sellers, Christina understood the power of content marketing and social media marketing to grow a following and skyrocket her reach and sales across the world's largest online marketplace. Her savvy approach to content helped her leverage 7 viral TikTok influencers without paying a dime to catapult her brand across the Canadian market. She transitioned into copywriting and content marketing when she realized covid-19 would force many Amazon sellers out of business. Instead of giving up, she studied Amazon listing creation, content curation, and social media management to help sellers scale their businesses with the same secret weapon that helped her grow two online businesses in less than a year. Content was and is the driving force of her passion and profession, and her innate content marketing skills are a force to be reckoned with.

A technical approach of product photography...

Lighting
• Lighting is the MOST important key of a great product photo. If you take a picture with a $50,000 camera in very poor light conditions, that picture will turn worse than a picture taken with an iPhone in great light conditions.
• Source of light - the bigger the light modifier, the softer the light, which will compliment the model better. As a general rule, I use 3x 7’ umbrellas for my lighting. However, if I shoot something like a sport product, where I need more defined shadows, I either use a smaller umbrella, or a small reflector.
• 3x 600w strobe lights will be enough for most scenarios, but sometimes I’m using 4-5 depending on how much space I need to cover.

Aperture
• Aperture will determine the amount of blur your picture will have in the background.
• The smaller the aperture, f11-f14, the sharper the background will be. However the smaller the aperture, the more light you will need.
• A lot of photographer choose to use higher aperture (which will make the background blurry) just because they don’t have enough light.

ISO
• The higher the ISO, the more noise you will have in the picture.
• For my studio shots, I am at ISO 100 with an aperture of f14-f16. For my on-location pictures, I will go to about 320ISO max, so the pictures will be clean as much as possible.

Lenses
• I am using my 24-70mm lens for about 90% of my pictures. The tighter the space you have, the smaller the focal lens will need to be. Sometimes, like if I’m shooting in a tight laundry room or party, 24mm is barely enough.
• However, I am always trying to shoot at over 50mm (59mm is the equivalent of what our human eyes see).
• The wider the lens, the more deformed the subject will be (which is not ideal!)
• For super detailed shots, I love to use my 100mm lens

Amazon is bringing out new tools this year to help Brands (only accessible to brand registered 3rd party sellers) with Insights on Search Performance of Their Products. On Thursdays with Sharon today Sharon introduces the new Search Catalog Performance Dashboard which is currently available for all Brand Registered Sellers from the Brand Analytics Dashboard, and also touches on a not yet released dashboard called "Query Performance Dashboard" which should be launched within the coming months. Here is what Amazon says about the dashboard: The new Search Analytics Dashboard will include the Search Catalog and Query Performance dashboards: The Search Catalog Performance Dashboard (out now in beta) will help brands understand their sales funnel at the product level. Sellers will be able to use this tool to quickly identify conversion issues or drop-off points where they lose customer attention. The dashboard will also help sellers analyze the price competitiveness of their products and optimize their marketing investments and inventory planning. The Query Performance Dashboard (not yet released) will help sellers understand top search terms that are associated with their products. This information can help sellers better target the keywords they use in their marketing campaigns and identify opportunities to expand their product portfolio based on customer interest. ___________________________________________________

Shelley started on Amazon in 2015 and one of the only people I know that sold two brands at the same time to two different aggregators. Two lots of discovery, two lots negotiations and double the stress. Whilst having help with the process using two different brokers both were over the line in a three month window.

Liran Hirschhorn returns to go in-depth on how he and his team using third party eye balls including running white listed ads against influencer profiles. Using a mixture of Hispey, MixMax, Upfluence (Free Chrome Experience) they dial in to get the maximum return. We discuss group buys on weekly stories over a month to maximise exposure (calculating eyes for each stories and expressed conversion rate)... And bartering for your budget requirements and never paying the ad rate card. The chat is mainly focusing on TikTok (18-25) and Instagram (25-34) which accounts for around 70% of the users on each platform.

Destaney Wishon returns to the show as we talk all things Amazon PPC. As Amazon PPC is clearly moving towards (for a while now) a full pay to play model at the top of search and the endless adding of new ad placements. What impact does this leave for the buyer experience? Sponsored Products is still 75% > of where the conversions are but what about the other ad types that are unproven? Do you invest early to play to win and then ride the wave before the CPC's go up, or do you get more cute with Sponsored Products and etch out the incremental improvements? That is the topic of the day...

Today I fly solo to chat about migrating your Amazon PPC using Portfolios to manage. I often hear how sellers switch to software and say it blows up their account. Two points here, the seller is in control of the software and a massive part of it, is the sellers PPC chops and time they invest in the software. More importantly, your campaign history and the dead start and your ability to recover, if your new campaigns go sideways. I'll share some ways to avoid all of the above and get your transition done as smooth as possible.

Gift Keywords: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly Gift keywords can be like hitting the lottery and whilst you should explore and test it would be silly to bank on this without a clear path laid with core keywords. I know of brands that were able to do well with this in the kids category and had a real knack of finding the right gift keywords to their products and had a strong hit rate. I have also seen sellers try to pivot to gift keywords as they used broadly related keywords in a niche whereby their product(s) fall between the stools. Why can gift keywords be problematic? That is the topic of today! ___________________________________________________ Grab Tickets for Seller Sessions Live Brought to you by Thrasio on May 7, 2022 Featuring: Ivelin Demirov, Tim Jordan, Destaney Wishon, Adam Heist and many more Hosted by: Danny McMillan, Sharon Even, and Izabela Hamilton Grab Tickets at: https://live.sellersessions.com/ Conference tickets include the “Afterparty brought to you by BetterAMS and Clear Ads”.

In order to know what type of images you need for your product, you must first understand the following about your product: * Main Benefits * Main Features * Where it is used * How it is used * Who uses it? * What does your Branding need to look like in order to attract your buyer avatar? Once you understand the above, then you will know what types of images your product NEEDS to have so that it can showcase your product best and help boost conversion. Only then can you create the brief and give the direction to the service provider making your images. Different Types of Images: * Main Image (hero) *Lifestyle: a few when possible (can turn into a collage) * Different angles of product (Can be mixed with infographics on the side) * What's Included (when applicable and can also include some other information like dimensions for example ) * Dimensions / measurements / weight * Collage: 4 images in a collage showing either where to use, how to use, main benefits etc * Infographics: Stand Out Features, must be to the point, Icons with limited text, can be mixed with a lifestyle like shown in the video of the podcast, must have Easily read texts and fonts ___________________________________________________ Grab Tickets for Seller Sessions Live Brought to you by Thrasio on May 7, 2022 Featuring: Ivelin Demirov, Tim Jordan, Destaney Wishon, Adam Heist and many more Hosted by: Danny McMillan, Sharon Even, and Izabela Hamilton Grab Tickets at: https://live.sellersessions.com/ Conference tickets include the “Afterparty brought to you by BetterAMS and Clear Ads”.

I see a lot of accounts whereby brands are not dialling in deep enough on their keyword research and tend to filter keywords by search vol on tools or base on frequency rank on Brand Analytics. Another thing I see is when sellers research the market and build a differentiated product which is too far removed from the niche that they were targeting, and falling between the stools. When they chase the original keywords and their product appears in the returned results it stands out like a sore thumb, in a good way if they convert, but can be a problem if they don’t. Because they no longer have the option to fall back on other keywords because they have created a new sub market without any mature keywords to rely on. Then you are in the territory of creating a market, which in itself is another podcast. Amazon is searchers in intent for supply and demand (in the main). Check out today’s show to find out how you can build a framework for your own products.

Today on Thursdays with Sharon, Sharon welcomes back Jamie Paros from ShipSavy and the EndGame Network to talk about the not-so-sexy but super crucial subject of Logistics Optimization... Something every amazon seller should familiarize themselves with. As an Amazon seller in 2022, with all the logistics and supply chain chaos, master carton and pallet optimization can save you a lot of time and money...But how do you know which configuration is best for your products? What is master carton and pallet optimization? We cover all this in today's podcast as Jamie Paros introduces us to Shipsavy - a new logistics optimization tool made specifically with Amazon Sellers in mind. Shipsavy allows you to quickly and easily compare different master carton and pallet configurations so that you can find the one that is best suited for your products. About Jamie: From a young age, it was clear that Jamie had that entrepreneurial spirit built into his DNA. He started a transport business at age 22 and soon realized that he could not sustain such long hours swapping time for money. Too much of his time was spent away from his family. Jamie’s hunger and motivation for change led him to discover the Amazon FBA business model. He intuitively knew that Amazon would help him leave the daily trucking grind behind. Jamie’s incredible work ethic and “Get Sh!t Done” war cry led him to become one of the real rock stars in the Amazon world, turning over $1,000,000 in sales in the USA. Now, Jamie is giving back to the Amazon community and also reinventing supply chain processes through various software ventures.

When you know your value and acknowledge the bounty of miracles in your life, you can step into pure possibility and live like a legend! Hazel Ortega is living proof of this principle and knows what it is to settle for nothing less than a legendary life. Born in East Los Angeles and raised in downtown L.A. in a 60-unit apartment building filled with cockroaches, rats, and gang members, it was a miracle if she had lunch money growing up. Today, she is the founder of several multimillion-dollar businesses, including one of LA’s top best restaurants, the Nixon Chops and Whiskey in Whittier, and the designer sensation, Savvy Socks. Her companies have been featured in the United Nations, the LA Times, the BBC, CNN and NBC.

On Thursdays with Sharon, Sharon will be riding solo and going through her Buyer Avatar Creation Process - Step by Step.

Knowing who you’re selling to is a step often missed by Amazon sellers, yet such a crucial step that can later help you in so many ways - what type of images do you need in your listing? What other keywords could you target that possibly others have missed as they don’t know enough about the buyer? And much more….

Ultimately knowing who buys the product and who is the end receiver of the product, how and where they use it is a step that should never be missed. Sharon will do a walk through of her process on how she digs deep into understanding her buyers and how this knowledge will help her with conversions.

In this episode we again go inside Seller Support and discuss the ongoing changes. Today we cover negative feedback removal, a new “Inbound Performance” dashboard that is currently in beta but is used to manage inventory work flow much better. Changes to defaults in shipping templates which could catch some sellers blind sided. Mandatory fields for video encoding to avoid suppression and ASIN suppressions on no buyable offers with no path to reinstatement.

On Inspired With Bell this week I will be joining her again and we will cover “Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.” a popular quote by Charles R. Swindoll, a Christian pastor. This is especially prevalent in our businesses, family life and friendships. Having a stoic approach to life will bring calm (which we will cover), also, building a philosophy on how you want to live your life - which I covered in the boundary show a couple of weeks back. I will also cover some interesting data from Dr John Gray When a man has low testosterone and high estrogen levels, he becomes stressed. When a woman has high testosterone and her estrogen levels drop she becomes stressed. It is an inverse effect as our biological structure is different from one another. If both parties have their hormone system in an optimal state, this brings equilibrium. How you react to things change, of course you have to throw in other areas including any past trauma or self esteem issues. And how time can heal most things as people can get to reflect, if they have the tools to do proper self reflection. Make sure you check in as we will go in-depth in many other areas within this subject.

On Thursdays with Sharon we welcome back Barcus Patty and Anthony Lee to Discuss the recent events around Rebates and Ranking manipulation on Amazon. Adam Heist may pay a visit too. What has caused all the fuss? Over the last 2 weeks sellers received an email from amazon stating that Rebatekey, a well knows rebate service, will be losing their access to MWS. The same message was sent to Elite Seller users also offering rebate services. A few days ago in the amazon seller forums an amazon employee stated that 2 step urls, rebates, search find buy and other tactics are against amazons code of conduct when used for search rank manipulation. We will be discussing these events and our interpretations of them. More on our Guests: Anthony is an Amazon Subject Matter Expert at Canopy Management. He leverages his experience as a brand owner, consultant, and executive at a number of popular Amazon software services to share content, training, and education that help sellers take actionable steps to grow. Barcus Patty has been in the Amazon seller space since 2015, selling his own products on Amazon, EBay and Etsy over the years. He’s also worked on the software side for sellers. Building tools, roadmaps and leading teams since 2015 as well. He has recently moved into the aggregator space as Head of Growth for Emergant where he is creating relationships with brands and services in the space. Vetting and analyzing deals that come into the pipeline.

On this show Alex and I will chat about some of the complications with Product Insurance that put a lot of sellers in a squeeze as it has been difficult for those residing outside of the US as some insurers are not willing to commit, especially those that sell on Amazon.com but are owners of non US based companies. Alex Shanahan is a Director of Christopher Trigg Insurance brokers who have been established for 50 years and have been arranging insurance cover for e-commerce businesses for around 20 years. Alex and his team have provided hundreds of FBA’s with insurance advice and cover during the last 12 months and are highly recommended within the FBA communities and on various forums.

I will join Izabela for a mindset Monday show and we will go in depth on how you can hold down your own power without impeding on the boundaries of others. You should check out my show a couple of weeks back about setting Boundaries in Life and Business as it is a compliment to this show.

We discuss 5 books including The Prince, 48 Laws Of Power, The Power Paradox, The Art Of War and the archetypes in the book King, Warrior, Magician, Lover. How there are two ways to consume the first two books, defence or offence... And the other three (books) which focus on the betterment of being a human (depending on how you extrapolate the information at hand).

We run through the theory on Jordan Peterson’s dominance hierarchy, the impact it has on serotonin levels and how people that play the power game and if caught, come tumbling down the said hierarchy.

The dangers of believing in your own hype as you get more success in business. As success is only rented and never owned and that the rent is due everyday and you must accept the burden of performance is on you

SOPBox.co presents a DUALcast podcast for SellerSessions.com and Awesomers.com 

Danny McMillan and Steve Simonson are teaming up to share some background about what has happened in China and the global economy since the covid-19. The last chapter in our mini-series helps highlight some of the distraction tactics and other behaviours that China is engaged in at present. Perhaps more importantly we also learn how the instability of production can be something that negatively impacts amazon FBA sellers and e-commerce operators at large ability to procure enough inventory.

Supply chain disruption comes from 3 primary areas: Labor, Energy and Raw materials. Companies engaged in product production must have a consistent supply chain to manage those 3 key ingredients. The lack of any one of these 3 components means that the supply chain is failing.

Steve speculates about the future of China and it’s competitiveness. Additionally Steve shares suggestions about where to consider manufacturing in the future and how to structure your own mental framework to deal with the present day problems while planning for the future.

SOPBox.co presents a DUALcast podcast for SellerSessions.com and Awesomers.com 

Danny McMillan and Steve Simonson are teaming up to share some background about what has happened in China and the global economy since the covid-19. Part III of this series focuses on causation of the issues at hand, beyond Covid, and specifically into the inflationary pressure driven by changing Demographics.

Your ability to understand how populations are changing gives you an edge in planning your products, production, supply chain, and even your products and selling strategies. The world population is changing in large ways and the most critical parts of the supply chain in China, Japan, Germany and most of Europe have shrinking populations which removes their ability to operate as a consumer based economy and forces them to export to survive.

Furthermore the ageing population changes the dynamics of how economies work especially related to the retirement populations being larger than the working and tax paying populations so your understanding of this can help you position your business properly.

Danny McMillan and Steve Simonson are teaming up to share some background about what has happened in China and the global economy since the covid-19. This episode dives into the recognition that we may be experienced COVID the sequel over the next 12 months. Instead of everything returning to normal as we all hope the reality is that the complicating factors are pushing us toward more supply chain issues, higher prices, and unpredictable shipping costs.

Every single part of the supply chain remains under pressure, especially when crossing borders. Your ability to understand the reasons why and then develop your own strategy on how to cope with these realties gives you an edge over those who do not yet understand these realities.

I am covering for Izabela Hamilton for this week as she will be mid flight at 4pm - She will be back in the chair next week.
As this is a mindset day, I deep dive into boundaries and how to develop your own philosophies for life...

A boundary is an imaginary line that separates from you and others. It separates your physical space, your feelings, needs, and responsibilities from others. Your boundaries also tell other people how they can treat you – what’s acceptable and what isn’t.

  1. Physical Boundaries
  2. Emotional Boundaries
  3. Sexual Boundaries
  4. Intellectual Boundaries
  5. Financial Boundaries

-Setting boundaries hard and soft
-Adjusting your boundaries
-Respecting other people's boundaries
How to map your friend and family table
-Inner circle - family, friends
-Outter circle - work, neighbours
-What is a enmeshment?
-Shaming
-Guilt tripping
-Handling arguments
-Circular conversations
-Gas lighting
-Handling your tiggers and look at what triggers you and why
-Self awareness
-Victimhood

Finally, designing your own philosophies to live by

On Thursday’s with Sharon we welcome back Jim Kennemer from Cosmo Sourcing to discuss sourcing from Vietnam.

With the ongoing Chinese trade war, broken supply chain, price increases, 7-8x shipping increases + surcharges many product developers and Amazon sellers are looking at alternatives to China, for some Vietnam could be the answer!

Vietnam is the 7th largest supplier of goods to the United States. The 2007 United States-Vietnam trade agreement provided a platform for easy business trading between both countries and today the US and Vietnam are major trade partners, with billions exported from Vietnam each year.
The US is Vietnam's 2nd largest trade partner (after China), and 18% of all Vietnamese exports end up in the United States.

Is Vietnam the right move for your business right now? Catch this episode to find out

In an AMZ environment that becoming more competitive (CPCs increasing, records amounts of capital raised by aggregators), Sellers need to find new angles to compete.

One way to do this for brands who think they have a decent amount of repeat purchasers (supplements, pet product, any type of consumable really), is to focus on your own customers to inform some more strategic decisions about how you acquire new customers and what products to sell.

Using the FBA report and excel (ideally a tool like PowerBI/Google Data Studio/Tableau), you can calculate some key customer metrics such as:

Profit per customer (Customer Lifetime Value): A critical metric to see how profitable an average customer is over time (i.e. at first purchase, vs 3 months vs 12 months). This determines how much you can spend to acquire a new customer and how to allocate your ad budget more efficiently across ASINs and across keywords.

Customer acquisition cost (CAC): Calculated as ad spend / new customers. How much you're spending on ads to acquire a new customer on Amazon. This is compared to the profit per customer to see whether you're breaking even (and after how long).

Repeat Order Rate: The number of orders a customer places on average. Helps with breakeven ACoS/RoAS calculation as well as being a broad customer loyalty metric.

Customer Retention Rate: How many customers buy twice/three times/four times, etc. For instance 1,000 customers have bought the product, 250 bought it twice (25% retention rate on the 2nd purchase), 100 bought it three times (10% retention rate on the third purchase but also 40% retention rate from the second to the third purchase).

Most Popular Second/Third Order: This measures the most popular follow up purchase after buying a given product. This can be used to track cross/up sells as well as trial conversion rates.

We brought you the news recently at which the speed of the Antitrust is moving and Amazon’s statement to slow things down. This could have massive impact on sellers if they switch things up and get rid of 3P and back channel via 1P to skirt the issues of competing with its own customers. Though it does not always feel this way, sellers are Amazon customers too. We drive billons of revenue in PPC spend, give Amazon the opportunity to be the “Everything Store” whilst driving a fees based revenue generator called FBA. Whilst this is happening, we have to trade in almost darkness on data, whilst they can refine their own in house brands. Today I bring in Clement Wan, Steve Simonson and Diana Gershman to re open the discussion on Fair Play and the email Amazon sent to customers for support.

Today we will show some examples whereby it can be in the extremes of 40% registered as a conversion rate yet the true conversion rate is only 16% (which is still good). New product launches with PPC are great indicators of this,  showing more red flags than a matador. We know the importance of conversion rate pertaining to A9, what makes this harsh is the reality is we are still partially blind on one of the most important ranking metrics.

Paul Raelson joins me today to pick apart the implications from a legal perspective and the wholesale changes that would be required if this is reinforced. Amazon statement on negative effects of proposed House legislation Amazon released the following statement from Brian Huseman, vice president of Public Policy, on proposed legislation introduced by members of the U.S. House of Representatives: “We are still analyzing the bills, but from what we can tell so far, we believe they would have significant negative effects on the hundreds of thousands of American small- and medium-sized businesses that sell in our store, and tens of millions of consumers who buy products from Amazon. More than a half million American small- and medium-sized businesses make a living via Amazon’s marketplace, and without access to Amazon’s customers, it will be much harder for these third-party sellers to create awareness for their business and earn a comparable income. Removing the selection of these sellers from Amazon’s store would also create less price competition for products, and likely end up increasing prices for consumers. The Committee is moving unnecessarily fast in pushing these bills forward. We encourage Chairman Cicilline and committee members to slow down, postpone the markup, and thoroughly vet the language in the bills for unintended negative consequences.”

Having said that, the right funding terms and options to bring out a new line is an important card to have up your sleeve.

Today I bring in Jason Boyce (Prosper Show) to get a full breakdown and insights into the current antitrust lawsuit and the treatment of third party sellers.

The report finds that Amazon “has monopoly power over many small- and medium-sized businesses.” It says these businesses largely “do not have a viable alternative to Amazon for reaching online consumers.” The report alleges that Amazon “has engaged in extensive anticompetitive conduct in its treatment of third-party sellers.”

One interesting tidbit from the report: “Publicly, Amazon describes third-party sellers as ‘partners.’ But internal documents show that, behind closed doors, the company refers to them as ‘internal competitors.’ ”

Jason Boyce, the author of The Amazon Jungle and founder of Avenue7Media, began selling direct to consumer as an e-commerce retailer in 2002, and as an Amazon Merchant in 2003. Together with his A+ teams, he has bootstrapped several of his own brands to success with methods developed over nearly 20 years of real-world experience. These methods helped Jason’s company become a Top 200 Amazon Seller and a top 1,000 E-commerce seller according to Internet Retailer Magazine. In 2014, while speaking at several Amazon Selling and E-commerce conferences, Jason realized that helping others succeed was more meaningful than growing his own brands. He began supporting a small group of sellers in 2014 which spawned Avenue7Media, a 21st-century product marketing agency.

As we continue our series on Biohacking for Amazon Sellers. Today I bring in David Toman from NootropicExperts.com to discuss how you can turn your brain back on. We talk about the stigma around nootropics and then difference between them and smart drugs. We discuss building stacks... David built two for me, one AM (to optimise my productivity) and one PM (for sleep, or lack of). We also chat about some quick wins for you guys sitting in front of the computer day in and day out in order to squeeze out some more productivity and get time back for your family and downtime.

About David Toman

I was diagnosed with Adult ADD several years ago. Up to then I had no idea why I had a problem with focus all my adult life. Ritalin turned the lights back on for me. A couple of years after the ADD diagnosis I ended up in the ER. And was told I was hypothyroid. A full-page, two-column list of symptoms including brain fog. Not only was I struggling to focus, my memory was failing too. Episodes of not remembering dates and appointments, a failing business, and a crumbling marriage. I saw psychologists, doctors, endocrinologists, neuroscience specialists and therapists. Two unrelated doctors tested me for dementia, and early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. One of the tests is the “Mini-Mental State Exam”. A “health professional” asks a series of questions designed to test a range of everyday mental skills.

The maximum MMSE score is 30 points. A score of 20 to 24 suggests mild dementia, 13 to 20 suggests moderate dementia, and less than 12 indicates severe dementia. I got 30 points on every test.

Nootropics Saved My Life

I’m a Virgo. And this means I’m very methodical in my approach to life. There had to be another answer to my cognitive problems. And thus began years of research and experimenting. I had to find out if there was a way to deal with brain fog and ADHD naturally. Ritalin was able to help me focus. But was not helping in the memory and thinking department. Years of searching websites, reading stacks of books, and combing through the forums. And I was able little by little to get my brain working again. Better than ever before. With the right combination of supplements and lifestyle changes, I’ve been able to reduce my use of prescription stimulants.

My business turned around, my relationship is better than the day we got married, and my brain is firing on all cylinders. And I continue to tweak and refine every area of my brain and cognition.

With over 13m data points and 200,000 email addresses exposed this is one of the biggest breaches we have seen in the Amazon community. Lots of huge sellers have been caught in the crosshairs for review manipulation on an unprecedented level.

Joining me today live from China will be Chris Davey and Cameron Walker... From the US, Brandon Young and John Hefter from Thrasio.

"The SafetyDetectives cybersecurity team uncovered an open ElasticSearch database exposing an organised fake reviews scam affecting Amazon.

The server contained a treasure trove of direct messages between Amazon vendors and customers willing to provide fake reviews in exchange for free products. In total, 13,124,962 of these records (or 7 GB of data) have been exposed in the breach, potentially implicating more than 200,000 people in unethical activities.

While it is unclear who owns the database, the breach demonstrates the inner workings of a prevalent issue affecting the online retail industry.

To kick off our series on Biohacking for Amazon Sellers we kick off with Testosterone Replacement Therapy. My first reaction to TRT was it was for meatheads in the gym to get big and focused on external aesthetics and vanity. However, low testosterone in men is a massive health hazard and leads to long term health deficits with low sex drive/libido and/or erectile dysfunction, Poor cognition/poor arithmetic/brain fog, fatigue/tiredness and loss of muscle mass/sports performance. Testosterone plays a vital role in the workings of the heart, kidneys, skin, bone health, sex organs and muscle maintenance and growth. Having optimal levels means you can operate on a similar level to someone 20 years younger.

Alastair Kennett is the Founder and Managing Director of Optimale, he suffered from low testosterone for several years before finding TRT. Both him and his brother have benefited hugely from the treatment, and they recognised that TRT was poorly provided by the NHS and other private doctors. So in 2017 they decided to start Optimale with the aim of providing convenient, safe and affordable TRT using the best protocols available in the UK.

Thomas Fallows-Baker is currently working part time at Optimale, supporting patients and helping to spread awareness of TRT. He is about to complete his degree in Medical Physiology and then will work full time at Optimale.

Optimale provides the top Testosterone replacement therapy protocols and treatments, directly to your doorstep, and can offer remote consultations and blood testing for convenience and effective monitoring.

The latest Account-wide storage announcement, was packaged as a "relief" for sellers has been fine for bigger sellers with limited launches, but will be devastating for brand new sellers and ones who are expecting large launches. If a brand new seller had 6 ASINs going into Amazon at the 200 unit limit, they will technically be in violation.

As always, Amazon is going through some major changes, and the time they are taking to communicate and enforce those changes is so haphazard that it will likely put some sellers out of business.

The episode we will take a look at the anatomy of a landing page and conversion colours. I will show a few examples on why it is very important to build a lander / Home page that is relevant to your audience. Example, Apple does not have long landing pages full of hypnotic copy. Why? Because they are not selling e products or marketing tools to marketers. This goes the same for Tesla, Nike, Coca Cola and Versace. What does this mean for your high ticket product?

Kevin King returns for Part 2 to share a number of his 99 best Amazon Marketing Hacks to increase your sales and grow your Amazon business.

Hack 5 – Which Keyword tools to use * In working out these best amazon marketing hacks Kevin has invested thousands of dollars on tools to date * Kevin likes to verify using data * Free tool is Sonar-tool.com and is best and most accurate – good for testing * Used to use Amazon’s AMS tool as a barometer but Kevin found it can be influenced so not reliable * Now using Helium 10 – Cerebro tool – THE most accurate in Kevin’s view based on his research and experience * If you pay for one, use Cerebro and then Sonor-tool in addition * Danny says multi-language search in Sonar is very powerful with a good visual tool – a great tool * Cerebro lets you download too both broad and specific keywords data * Danny advocates using the 80/20 rule in data research * Kevin likes to look at what’s driving the sales – to dig into which keywords a product is using * If you can find 5-10 mid-range keywords rather than the top 2 or 3 keywords you can do well * Kevin uses his PPC data to check his conversions for which keyphrases are converting * He will run PPC for 2-3 weeks to mine this data and drive his strategy for his products

Hack 6 – Amazon’s Choice badge * Is keyword dependent * It’s recommended by Alexa algorithm * Gives social proof to buyers looking at listings * Influence this by sending traffic to your listing and have it blindly put in the cart – Alexa doesn’t show a listing so you need the traffic to add it to the cart WITHOUT looking at your listing (like Alexa)....

Kevin King joins us to share a number of his best Amazon Marketing Hacks to increase your sales and grow your Amazon business. It’s been a busy year – strong Amazon Business progress, Illuminati Mastermind, Freedom Ticket course launched, got married and making money.

Hack 1 – Other fields in your listing * Fill out the keyword field that is 250 bytes limited. The Fabric Field can also be filled out and can get you a sixth bullet. A good Amazon Marketing Hack is that there are extra fields you can use like the Subject matter field is also useful, there are 5 fields there and take your best keyword phrases (50 chars per field and 5 fields). Well indexed and worth looking at for PPC matching and tells Amazon these phrases are important. * The Subject Matter field is available in the categories that Anthony is in so looks like available in most. The fabric type does not show up in all cats. * A lot of successful sellers that Danny has noted are using the waterfall effect in the backend and going against a lot of the ‘guidance’ and using search phrases in backend fields * Spamming the backend keywords is not the best way to go – most big sellers are not filling the backend up but using only a few in the backend

Hack 2 – Pricing your product * How do I price my product? * We could do an hours session on pricing but as this is an Amazon Marketing Hack… * Testing has found that in conversion terms – 45c seems to be the best, then 50, 89, 90 and then 99 cents. * To make it look cheaper just drop the decimals ‘.00’ apparently adding the $49.00 seems more expensive the $49....

New Coupon Feature * In your seller central account, you’ll find the new Amazon feature for coupons under your Advertising tab menu * Open to Brand Registry 2.0 users – need to have a trademark registered brand * Take one or a group of ASIN – recommended to do related products for a group * Coupon for a percentage off or a dollar off * You get a coupon badge on your listing – giving a higher clickthrough rate * Getting in early you get a boost before everyone catches up * You can create the coupon – $50 off * Create a budget of $50 of coupons and once people have taken it then it stops giving coupons * There is a 60 cents per coupon redemption fee that you as a seller pay * You can target this to all customer, Prime only, people who have viewed ‘other’ ASINS, or past-customers only * Lots to experiment with * It can take 4 days for your coupon to go-live

Liran has been inside Amazon HQ and has some great updates for us on what’s coming down the pipe for Sellers. A seller since 2014, Liran shares his experience on Amazon to help your amazon fba products sell.

Things that are coming from Amazon:

The Lighting Deal * Available to vendors, coming to 3rd party sellers * Frustration is that you pay to run the lightning deal $150 and you don’t get much visibility * Ability to pay to be featured on one of the 1st three pages of the deals page * The opportunity to run a sponsored ad and you pay per click – as in a sponsored products bidding model * Another opportunity to market your product * Will there be a top of the page or right rail slot – Liran doesn’t think so, it’ll be more likely mixed in with the results on the 1st page * Imagine it’ll be cheaper than running regular sponsored ads * We’ll see how it plays out * Get the most out of your lightning deal – get initial sales and more reviews

External Traffic * A key frustration Liran shared with them while inside Amazon is that they have lots of data but share very little with sellers * Sellers would love to be able to track external traffic * The pixel on your Shopify store lets you track people * Amazon have said they are looking at this tracking for 2018…slow going but they are working on it * Something might roll out in 2018 that lets you track that traffic * Would probably make sense to do it from the Storefront and be able to place a pixel on there – would make sense for brand registered sellers....

Sean Smith is back and really really good. The owner of Jungle Hustle doing Amazon PPC for Sponsored products is here to share the latest Amazon PPC news for Q4 and Amazon 2018. Sean also has a software product called PPC Agility so has lots of testing and data to share.

In the eye of the storm of Amazon Ads in Q4 * Data from Sept & Oct – sales volume and ACOS was bad * A lot harder to manage ACOS for the agency – make bid changes more frequently and run more aggressive tests * Sept/Oct is really really tricky to manage * They have a client doing $50m in retail and been going a while – they know their seasonality and every year Sept is his worst year * FB posts are popping up that sales are down * Sean happy to get out of that Sept period – it’s a pain in the butt * Clients always want to tweak campaigns rather than deal with the season itself * Seasoned business people who have been in ecommerce for a while it’s easier to deal with them, newer sellers worry more about the sales seasonality because they measure things more short-term than seasonally

November on Amazon * Preparing Amazon PPC for the holidays Cyber Monday and Black Friday * Looking for PPC keywords around black friday, cyber monday, Christmas, etc * Some volume for some of the giftable items the clients have can be seen * Putting together a plan for capping the daily budget for each account – it goes through the roof on those days so it’s good to cap it as the value isn’t there but it’ll burn a load of money....

We have Paul Harvey with us and he’s going to tell us how to use Facebook Messenger Ads to increase your Amazon FBA product sales. We’re covering the use of Facebook chatbots to increase sales.

What are Facebook Messenger Ads? * It’s a Messenger app in Facebook that everyone uses * When you create a Messenger Ad, it sends Messages to individuals with your ad copy in it as a conversation

Compared to other Ads on FB with Messenger Bots you can… * With straight traffic engagement ads, the buyer clicks on the ad, makes the purchase and are gone * With Messenger bots you can engage with them in a conversation and have them in your feed until they opt out

How to use Facebook Messenger Ads to help… * To help launch products and get reviews at the same time * Ad spend is a little higher than a normal ad but it’s much more effective, talking to them and offering the sale * You can talk to the buyer before to verify them, then show them the offer and if they want it they can buy direct from the Facebook App * This goes direct to Amazon and it’s quality traffic that Amazon loves

Setup is… * How to use Facebook Messenger Ads can be manual – You can create your own Messenger Bots in Facebook but it’s a pain * Recommend you use a software solution Moneychat, Chatflow, there’s a few and they plug into your Facebook Ads account * Then select an ‘objective’ which for us will be ‘traffic’ for Messenger and then sleect Messenger Pop-up * Create the add and have 1 or two options....

Living in Sweden Dan has been running Amazon Businesses for 4 yrs with 4 brands over that period, one of which he sold. He continues with the 3 brands, ten products and many variations and sizes. So he knows a little about how to take advantage of Hijackers on your Amazon products.

The Traditional Response to a Hijacker on your listing * Dan deals with the leaching Hijackers on your listing. * Traditionally you send them a cease and desist letter and hope they jump off * The other way is to buy their products, wait 30 days and then send Amazon a complaint of counterfit goods

Dan’s method is * Immediately send them a cease and desist letter * At the same time Dan buys all of their stock and does it through ‘search and buy’ * So you’ll search for particular keywords that you want to rank for * Then buy a chunk of 10 or 15 units – buying more than one unit in a single order gives a higher conversion rate for that Listing (your listing in this hijacking case) * If you can buy 10 or 15 and buy them as a normal customer would, then it’s going to do nothing but benefit your search rank for that keyword * You’ll get a little bit of a bump from that * No risk to losing money on this order because you KNOW this person is selling counterfeit goods * Once you do report them to Amazon you will get your money back (30-40 days), you get the benefit of the ranking in that time and the hijacker has no stock left, so they can’t sell to your customers and you.....

In this part 2 session Brian Johnson brings us the latest 2017 Amazon PPC roundup on the updates from Amazon and what it means to your keyword optimisation and amazon ads.

Brian has been in ecommerce for 11-12 years, was a student of AMS2 (Amazing Selling Machine 2) and with his engineering background he delves into testing everything.

Big Sellers approach * Stimulating Rank not just with PPC but also with Giveaways * Going after main keywords in their niche and in top 5 in five countries * They don’t feel the need to fill out the backend keywords as they are focussed on their main top 2-3 keywords and giveaways * They know how to get there and so haven’t focussed on the backend

Most Sellers don’t know how to use advertising * A lot of Sellers don’t know how to use advertising * The common belief is I’m going to turn on advertising, I’m going to pay Amazon for Traffic that will result in Sales and that’s what advertising is – Brian disagrees with that * Brian teaches that you understand your advertising objectives, is it launch, target audience, adjust for profitability * Figure out who your target audience is so that you can focus in your organinc product listing for ranking the best for organic rank and to be highest relevance for the phrases that attract the audience and perform the best for your target audience....

Amazon PPC roundup – Indexing and algorithms * Indexing is an organic algorithm function, not a sponsored function * Sponsored has it’s own queues to test for relevance * The A9 algorithm is the organic indexing * This indexing tests the relevance of the product for what is being searched for – it’s a pass or fail in that you’re indexed or not for this search phrase * Search position ranking is different – where you might be on page 1 for a search term versus beyond page 20 as an example....

We’re joined by Kevin Rizer, host of Private Label Movement podcast and Amazon Seller. Kevin shares with us the tactics behind how to use Influencer campaigns for your Amazon product sales.

What is Influencer Traffic and how do you use it? * How to use influencer campaigns and attract influencers * Ability to harness the influence of another to drive reviews, traffic and sales to listings * Been around for hundreds of years but new to ecommerce space * Warm traffic and sometimes free * <2% of people on Amazon are using Influencer traffic

How to use Influencer campaigns – where do you find Influencers? * Wherever people congregate there are influencers * A knitting group that gathers monthly – the leader of that group is an influencer * We want to look on-line and YouTube is a favourite place to look as is Instagram

How do you use influencer campaigns with YouTube or Instagram? * Demographic based – howto videos is YouTube (i.e. present a portable tent in a demo video of in-use on YouTube) * Cosmetics or beauty that may not require as much illustration but is more ’emotion’ evoked so Instagram can work * The audeince on YouTube are looking for How-Tos but Instagram is more people killing time rather than looking for how-tos.....

We’re back with Liran and investigating how to use Facebook Offer ads to rank Amazon FBA products. Talking about ad copy tactics, coupon codes, how many in the giveaway and the impact of review counts.

  • Coupon code hacks
  • I like to test different coupon codes for performance
  • I use external traffic to drive rank on Amazon – and to build email lists or generate Amazon rank

How to use Facebook Offer Ads – step by step * In Facebook ads you can turn on ‘Facebook Offers’ enables you to upload single use coupon codes right in Facebook * You don’t need to deal with landing pages, Amazon distributes the single use coupon codes for you * Tested 90, 80, 70% discount and it depends on your product and you need to test where you’re still getting sales generated from this traffic but offering the least amount of discount that makes sense to you – it’s the organic traffic and boost you’re getting on your keywords is the trade for this * I send the traffic to a 2-step URL: + A Search results page that has just my product with the keyword embedded in the URL + Customer clicks and goes to the product detail page, clicks and buys

  • Facebook offers are easy. Let’s say you are targeting people for a camping product in your target Facebook audience:
    • People that ‘Like’ Amazon.com
    • Then narrow it down to people who ‘like’ hiking/camping
  • If they like Amazon.com they are probably a customer already and then narrow it down
  • You don’t need to be a genius at targeting because you’re offering 70-80% off in discount
  • Where people use Facebook as a social channel for full-price products they struggle.....

We are covering how to use split testing with Andrew Brown co-founder of the Splitly software tool. This episode covers when to use split testing, which products benefit most from split testing and why split testing improves your sales.

What is split testing? * Website traffic is split 50/50 with half seeing one version of your page and the other half seeing the another page * You then analyse the data to see which page performed better

How to use split testing in the Amazon platform * Amazon does split testing all the time – you see changes * Splitly – changes the listing in Seller Central back and forth over a 24 hour period

Why Split Test? * Most of us in FBA want the ‘best’ images and copy * If you can reliable improve your conversion rate by a couple of percent it translates to sales * Optimising your listing can be cheaper than spending on advertising to get sales * Only through split-testing can you tell if your change has brought more sales * You can test hypothesis to see if it improves sales

The 80/20 Rule * You have title, main image and price – plus the 5th bullet * How to use split testing for the biggest benefit? * Price is a key influencer on sales – which price is more profitable? * At my lower or higher price point am I more profitable? * The A9 search algorithm is a bit different to Google’s * Amazon ‘knows’ if you’re making money and it rewards you in the search results where as Google doesn’t notice....

A seller since 2014, Liran shares his experience on how to hack lightning deals for your amazon fba products. His insights on the algorithm and the best ways to increase your chances and success with lightning deals.

What products work best with Lightning deals? * More of a general mass appeal product as more customers for them * Seasonal timing is also important (snow shovel in August may not sell well on a lightning deal)

Avoid certain products * Spinners cannot be used on Lightning Deals * Anything with safety issues should not be used

Optimising your time of day * At night is no good * Have 2-3 windows open and hit the confirm button one after the other to get the time slot you want * A decent time for west cost 12:00 and good time for east coast 15:00 * Anytime during day and evening is pretty good

Multiple Lightning Deals * Is it worth doing one after the other? * If you have the KEEPA chrome extension – it gives you data on ASINs * Shows a dot to show when someone runs a lightning deal – Liran noticed a seller had lots of red dots all in the same week. * If you open multiple windows in the browser and hit ‘confirm, confirm, confirm, confirm’ in those windows you can trick the system and get multiple lightning deals all in the same week. * It’s one of the only true ‘scarcity’ options you have on Amazon....

Paul is back with a second installment of Free Plus Shipping strategies for making the most of this innovative selling strategy.

Since the last episode Paul has had many requests for examples of free + shipping products

So here is one – A pillow with glitter that wipes off to show some wording underneath.

Free plus Shipping failures to lookout for * The Free plus Shipping customer mindset is very different to Amazon customers * They don’t go to Facebook to ‘buy’ that’s why the low-cost product works as an impulse buy * Whereas people on Amazon, they will pay what they want for the stuff they want on Amazon * And they have a ‘ready to buy’ mindset, they go to Amazon with their credit card out * Some of these people do not have Amazon accounts! One customer even asked Paul to reset their Amazon password so he could use it

  • Instagram affects free plus shipping – a friend of Paul’s has 5.2m people on Instagram and made 15k in 4 days by sending out a link to his Instagram followers
  • He had 20 copycats straight away – short term burst off of this
  • Influencer traffic is good for short-bursts,
  • If Paul sees that his ‘upsells’ are doing well, Paul will create a new funnell around that offer....

Identifying main Keywords * Use google keyword planner * Dump competitor listings in there and pull out a big list of keywords * Use common sense and think up what I would call it * Uses (Amazon Marketing Service) AMS predicted High/Med/Low search volume – you need vendor express to get onto AMS * Create a dummy headline search ad, put in 10-15 best selling products you want to promote (i.e. Skipping rope) on your page and * When you put in the keywords it will show you the search volume (Lo/Med/Hi) based on Amazon’s data * Build a list of all the Med and High keywords for the next stage.....

This session we’re with Pete Moran, discussing Amazon Review Strategies and how you can work with a customer to turn negative Amazon reviews in to positive. Either using tools or managing it empathetically and manually with your buyers.

Pete has been an Amazon Seller for over two years and is the Technical Co-Founder of the Amazon tool PPC-Scope with Brian Johnson.

What is the impact of a one star review * Most of the time negative reviews are unwarranted (used wrong) or placed by competitors * Pete looks at it like a bucket and a 1 star review is like a hole in your bucket losing you sales * Buyers come and see the negative review and don’t buy * You can one of two Amazon Review Strategies: + Fill more into the top of your bucket with more sales + Or Fill the holes in your bucket and get the negative review removed/resolved * Dropping half-a-star has a big impact on sales * Anything with sales velocity needs 4* upwards

Recovering from a one star review needs how many 4 or 5 * It’s approx 15 positive reviews to counter-act that one 1 star review * How many ‘sales’ do you need to achieve these 15 positives? * Conversion rate of 5% sales to 1 review – that’s a lot of sales that you need * This often gets overlooked in many amazon review strategies....

Paul is an Amazon Seller and in this episode Paul tells us all about the Free Plus Shipping method as an approach to selling using Facebook ads.

This is a different approach to selling on Amazon and opens up your selling skills through the use of sales funnels off Amazon, product selection optimization using Ali Express, shorter shipping times and Facebook pixel grooming.

Free plus shipping is drop-shipping where you buy from China for $1 and sell on Facebook as FREE PLUS SHIPPING where the shipping is inflated to cover your unit costs.

You would likely look to use this technique as an addition to your Amazon strategy.

Where to get products for the Free plus Shipping Method? * Start on Ali Express * Use Jewellery as example * Silver oil diffuser for $2 which includes free shipping to US or UK * Find on-line stock images * Create a Facebook ad with the images * This ad takes them from Facebook to your funnel saying ‘Get this free product here just pay shipping’......

Micheal has big data and a 5 step approach for Amazon PPC Automation to optimise and automate your ad spend. We cover keyword research and search term reports, how to calculate keyword relevance and product data optimisation along with ad group strategies that win.

Micheal’s 5 Pillars Strategy Keyword Calculation Manual research is really complicated with big portfolios (20-30k upwards) and many marketplaces with many languages
Process has to be based on numbers and automated

Step 1 – Analyze Amazon search recommendations * You calculate keyword candidates by analysing Amazon search recommendations * Analyse top seller data – which words and word combinations are more frequent in a specific product category * Search term reports are most valuable source – knowing which search query generated how many impressions

Step 2 – Calculating Keyword relevance * Searching for ‘women’ as a keyword you find all kinds of products * None of those product categories has a high relevance for the keyword ‘women’ * If you searched for “women’s sneakers size 8” then you would be more specific as it’s a really high relevance keyword * Really important to review your search term reports to see which search queries your ads are firing for and to spot the * irrelevant search queries and put them as negative keywords

Step 3 – Product Data Optimisation * You might have 2000 to 3000 keywords but 90% won’t generate a single impression * Need to help Amazon understand that your product is relevant for a specific keyword * We slice the keyword set up into slices * Take a slice and optimise the search term attribute we are going to update and send it to Amazon * Week by week we take a new slice and send it to Amazon * We then know the reach, cost and conversion for each keyword.....

Danny and Ivelin go in-depth on Amazon Tracking, Ranking and Indexing on Amazon and how you can fix keyword issues when not your listing is not showing up in search results. Without visibility you are leaving money on the table – Don’t let that be you!

So we’ll hear from Ivelin on how to make the most of your 2,500 character cap. How to divi-up the characters across title, bullets, description and back-end to prioritise the best elements for the greatest return on your top keywords.

Ivelin goes through his testing and an approach that yields much more confidence in your keywords being actively indexed by the Amazon search algorithm. This makes sure Amazon tracking of your keywords is optimised.

We all know mobile is super important with the majority of buyers coming through mobile with upto 70% being quoted in some cases.

The value in your image is paramount and more so in mobile given the limited screen real-estate. Other limitations for your listing on mobile is that the Amazon algorithm truncates your bullets and description text so you need your most powerful keywords in the first few characters where possible.

We’ve heard small is beautiful and Ivelin recommends keeping your title and bullets short initially. This will make sure your keywords are in there and the amazon tracking algorithm is forced to index them as there’s not much more for it to go on.

Ivelin then recommends increasing your title and bullets wordings. Use search to confirm the keywords are indexed by finding your listing in the Amazon search engine.

The algorithm indexes keywords and associates them with keywords to reduce what the viewer sees and keep it relevant

How many characters should we have for our keywords? * Depends on the total character count across your bullets, front-end and back-end * There are only 1,500 to 1,600 keyword in the front-end that get indexed * Top down is priority to improve Amazon tracking and buyer eye scanning * The last bullet-points numbered 4-5 should be used for information only and not your main keywords as these may not be indexed * Only 600-1,200 of the backend keywords get indexed * There are 2,500 chars included across title, bullets and back-end keywords * Start with short title and bullets than load the back-end to test keywords indexing + Then add 50 words a day at a time to up the indexed keywords + Start with the title (200 chars), 100 each for the bullet points then back-end.....

This session we talk with Sean Smith going into detail on Amazon ads ppc indexation – the warp core of your Amazon listing success. Being top of search is a lot more effective, we cover the 17% difference in ACOS depending on where you place your ads. The choice of strategies in going for top of search or others not only impacts your ACOS but also how successful your conversion rate will be for your product not to mention your clickthrough rate. Sean’s analysis of over 128m impressions gives empirical data-driven facts that help you grow your amazon sales the right way.

Mobile is a key market for Amazon sellers with figures quoted of 47% of traffic coming from mobile. This becomes very important for many aspects of product sales and especially listing optimisation. When crafting your ultimate listing, shaping the keywords into your title, building your bullet point descriptions and ensuring the images all look great, be sure to take a look at how the Amazon algorithm is rendering your masterpiece on the smaller phone screen. We sometimes enjoy the big screen desktop experience while crafting, but forget that it looks very different on different devices.

Amazon Ads Placement * Ad placement for 128m impressions tested * Performance by placement tested * How ads perform in certain spots is different

Categories * To be Top of search with your Amazon Ads * Other (Right Rail, Middle of search,) covers a lot of different places on the page * Top is 20% ACOS – 23% conversion rate – clickthrough 2.8% * Other is 37% ACOS – 9% conversion rate – clickthrough 0.26% * More effective to be at the top of search with your Amazon ads * There is more traffic from ‘other’ placements due to the amount of placements......

The focus is on multi-language PPC and cross border selling in europe on Amazon FBA. International selling private label can be difficult to break into and optimization to translate keywords for pan-eu product listings can hit the language barrier.

Cross-border PPC can be very difficult especially for translations and keyword research on multi-language ppc campaigns and Amazon sponsored ads.

The translation of listings and how to deal with different marketplaces across the european Amazon market is what we’re focussing on and bringing translation and european keyword research tools to help.

The language barrier is one challenge but the language alone needs context as there are also cultural norms that can impact. For instance ‘pants’ means one thing in the US and very different thing in the UK and that’s just in English speaking countries. The free sonar-tool.com tool for Amazon Sellers can help.

Sonar Keyword Research tool * Based only on Amazon * 180,000,000 keywords from Amazon * Real search terms from Amazon sellers * Crawled all these keywords for all the different marketplaces...

This session Taylor returns and shines a light on the new AAP or Amazon Advertising Platform, what it is and does and how to put it in action for your business. The addition of ‘broad match’ ads to Amazon Marketing Services (AMS) is a great lift for sellers but with it comes the downside as there is no search-term report you don’t know exactly which keywords are converting best. Taylor gives us strategies to waterfall the bids to optimise your spending.

Then Taylor moves onto the introduction of Headlines ads which is in beta for some sellers and is beginning to appear across people’s accounts. Again Amazon gives with one hand but takes with the other as we see the cost per click begin to climb as many new entrants come into the headline ad market.

Amazon Store pages is another innovation and moves us along from the brand pages which were a little clunky to put up and manage and then the Amazon Advertising Platform get the Taylor Treatment with an in-depth run through the platform, the options and a focus on the Amazon Retargeting Ads strategies to use.

  • Match Types in Amazon Marketing Services (AMS)
    • Broad match added to AMS so now we have exact, phrase and now broad match which gives greater reach
    • You have no search-term report so you don’t know which keywords convert
    • We’re hoping they eventually have a search term report because it will give us better analysis
    • You need to ‘waterfall’ your bids:
      • Exact should be highest, phrase a little lower and then broad lowest to optimise your ad spend...

In This Session we are focusing in on email marketing sequences for your Amazon business. We talk through the tone of your email and the language you use, how many emails to have in your sequence and how often you should send without damaging your relationship.

How many emails in your email marketing sequence for a given product? * Recommend a 3 emails sequence for most products as you ask for things twice to get results * Some send 4 others send 2 or 1 * In Email 1 – here’s the product you bought from us and we’re just checking all is okay * For Email 2 – asking for product review or seller feedback * Then Email 3 – ask a second time * Go for 3 emails as gets better results * People change the email marketing sequence depending on what they are selling * A supplement product takes longer to show results for users so the email sequence fires longer after they have received the product * Where as a desk lamp, they just pull it out of the box and use it so can be sent an email soonerAmazon also send emails to customers so consider that too

Recommended sequence * 1st email goes after straight after order completed – customer service email content * 5 days later – ask for product review or buyer feedback * 10 days later – ask for product review of use of product...

In this session we go into how to maximise your Amazon ad-spend and cut-out waste. Marketing your product is a key expense of business so anything you can do to optimise and make your advertising work harder for you will grow your business. The magic of maths comes to bear here, you get a scientific approach to pricing your ad spend across Broad, Phrase and Exact types.

Digital marketing background * Started taking on his own accounts * Jungle Hustle and Amazon PPC and Product Photography * Spoke at SCO at Philadelphia, ASD and Prosper Show and Seller Optimisation Summit * Weighted averages * The numbers tell the story * Use averages to work out starting bids using weighted averages * Gives a more accurate picture to your starting bids * Filter search term report * Use an All search terms report that are exact match * Then calculate the weighted average of the average PPC * Use this to make a more informed starting bid * More accurate than using an arbitrary number * Use weighted average CPC and start bids at 10-20% above this. * If it’s >= 3 orders we multiply by 1.5 now * It takes into consideration the number of clicks * Qty of clicks tells you how much traffic you’re garnering for the search term * You should pay attention to the weighted averages * Average PPC for that product or category can give you a bigger bang for your ad buck

Keyword filtering * Separate keyword filters from search term report * Rank 1 – greater or equal to 3 orders placed within one week of a click (avg conversion rate of 10% or higher) * Rank 2 – 1 to 2 orders placed within a week of the a click and it’s less than 10% conversion

Filter Rank 1 * Pull 3 orders placed within a week of a click all search terms * De-dupe everything * Take weighted average of the average CPC and multiply by 1.5 (using 2 makes ACOS to high) for starting bid * We’re using a multiplier of 1.5
