7 Essential Amazon Selling Tips<\/strong><\/h2>\n

For those of you who would rather read the tips in word form (minus the infographic), here is a recap of the Amazon selling tips and results you could achieve if you implement them.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Get to grips with Amazon SEO<\/h3>\n

Investigate which keywords your competitors are using and which ones you also want to rank for, and include them in your listing titles, subtitles, descriptions and image alt text. You can also power up your SEO efforts by using Amazon\u2019s Keyword Tool, as well as specialist tools like KWFinder<\/a> and Ahrefs<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Use Fulfillment by Amazon<\/h3>\n

Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) allows you to drastically reduce the time you spend fulfilling and shipping orders, as well as save space in the warehouse<\/a>. FBA also enables you to appear in Prime-filtered searches, which typically have much higher conversion rates than products not eligible for Prime delivery.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Increase conversions with the Buy Box<\/h3>\n

Strive for fast shipping and less errors so that you have more opportunity for appearing in Amazon\u2019s \u2018Buy Box\u2019.\u00a0<\/span>Did you know that\u00a0<\/span>82% of desktop purchases and 90% of mobile purchases<\/a> are via the Amazon Buy Box? This is why it’s so important to work on your efficiency in order to win the box.\u00a0Automation technology<\/a>, which can automate common workflows for you, including order fulfillment, shipping and invoicing should be at the forefront of your strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Strive for quantity and quality in your reviews<\/h3>\n

Aim for a healthy balance of both quantity and quality in your reviews<\/a> by asking customers who are raving about your products elsewhere to leave you a review on Amazon. And don\u2019t forget to leave a small number of average reviews mixed in with the good so that your listing looks more trustworthy.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Master the art of branding<\/h3>\n

In order to win sales on this competitive marketplace, you\u2019ll need to stand out from the crowd! Research your target audience and what interests them, and ensure your product photos<\/a>, pricing, product description, listing title and reviews all emanate what your target audience are looking for.<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Integrate Amazon with your business systems<\/h3>\n

Not all back-office and business systems integrate with Amazon fully<\/a>, or within house. However, it\u2019s crucial that you have this functionality. With orders flowing through a single back-office solution, inventory<\/a> levels updated in real-time, business accounting handled efficiently, and automatic SKU-SKU connection, you\u2019ll reduce admin time, eliminate errors and prove yourself as a worthy Amazon seller.<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Act on sales reports findings<\/h3>\n

You should regularly report on your Amazon sales to establish how well the marketplace is working for you, and how it\u2019s faring in different territories if you\u2019re selling across borders. This is where powerful systems integrations will also help by automating the accounting process, ensuring you spend more time analyzing your sales, instead of consolidating data.<\/span><\/p>\n
