Once per week or so I love to go live on Zoom in the Facebook group with whoever can join me and answer as many ecommerce and Amazon selling related questions as possible. Recently, we recorded one of these sessions for you. The questions we discussed this time clarify what is the "replens model", my background story in doing this over twenty years, how to get around gated categories as a new seller, the difference between a brand and a category, and how to better understand profit margins. This episode has great tips and resources for all skill levels of sellers - enjoy!
If you'd like to join us for a live zoom session, the next one is Monday July 17th at 5PM ET (New York time) and you are invited to join us using this zoom link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/84823798446
