Big changes are coming to your Amazon Seller page. Namely, buyers are going to be able to see your business name and address.  At the moment you have the option of showing your personal info or not, but as of September 1st, 2020 you will no longer have that choice.

Email communication is hugely important.  And if you’re an active user of ManageByStats’ software, a casual follower of our Amazon business material, or if you’ve somehow stumbled onto this article while looking for new running shoes on Amazon you’re in a good place.

Ever wonder what it takes to be an entrepreneur? Truth is, everyone has the entrepreneurial spirit. We’re all entrepreneurs at heart; the execution of that drive usually just comes down to scale. How far do you take it? Do you run a weekend garage sale for extra cash? Sell some things on eBay? Invent a cool new tool and take it to market? Work like mad on a new business idea, ala Jeff Bezos, and found a new Amazon? Somewhere in between? Whether a large or a small enterprise, we’re all engaged in some form of entrepreneurial activity.

Amazon built and expanded a massive sandbox, invited anyone to come play and, remarkably, in 2006 made it so easy anyone could do it. FBA (Fulfilment By Amazon) was the first such market of that scale, and with its introduction Amazon made it easier than ever for third party sellers to get in on the action.

In just a few days ManageByStats will no longer receive from Amazon customer info such as buyer name, recipient name, and shipping street address.  This affects not only us, but all software providers, and the hammer has already fallen for many.

We’re into the first Quarter of the New Year, which means it’s the perfect time to look ahead to what will be the absolute must-attend conferences for Amazon Sellers in 2019. Here in the States we just went through a Polar Vortex, we may be in for a Heat Vortex come summer -- all sorts of things are likely in store, but no matter the weather one thing’s for sure: This year promises to be a Knowledge Vortex for anyone selling on Amazon.

When Amazon FBA came on the scene (Fulfilled By Amazon), it was a revelation for many Amazon Sellers. On September 19th, 2006, Amazon launched Fulfillment by Amazon.  The new service gave small businesses the ability to use Amazon.

The right tools help drive your Amazon FBA business to new heights.  Selling on Amazon is not only lucrative but it has many moving parts, especially if you’re selling more than a handful of products.

Despite what some now-defunct businesses might have you believe, Amazon didn’t sound the death knell for other members of the ecommerce world when it assumed its dominant position atop the retail world.

The Announcement Philip Jepsen, our CEO here at ManageByStats, has announced that ManageByStats was invited to and has joined the Amazon Marketplace Developer Council.  As a member of the Council ManageByStats will provide helpful information to Amazon, which ultimately may be used to further and improve Amazon’s services and offerings for sellers and developers.
