AmpliSell’s B2B E-Commerce Blog for Amazon Sellers

In the ever-evolving world of Amazon selling, many brand owners find themselves at a crossroads. After years of selling under an aggregator-style model, some entrepreneurs want to regain control and build a direct, loyal relationship with their customers. The most effective way to do that? Transition to a single, cohesive Amazon storefront under your own brand.

Choosing the right support model for your Amazon business is a critical decision that directly impacts your brand’s ability to grow and scale. Many brand owners feel torn: they prefer starting with a short upfront project or a partial arrangement—someone to guide and assist without fully taking over. This approach provides flexibility, helps maintain brand vision, and allows owners to learn alongside the experts.

Negative reviews on Amazon can be tough for sellers, but they're also inevitable. Whether it’s due to product issues, shipping delays, or unmet expectations, bad reviews can harm your sales and reputation if not handled properly. But with the right approach, they can also provide valuable insight and even improve your business in the long run.

Managing an Amazon storefront can be overwhelming for small teams. However, with the right strategies, clear systems, and smart use of Amazon’s built-in features, it's absolutely possible to streamline operations and deliver a top-tier brand experience—without needing daily, manual oversight.

When selling products on Amazon, one of the biggest decisions you'll face is choosing the right fulfillment method: Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) or Fulfillment by Merchant (FBM). Both options have advantages, but when it comes to products that require customization, the decision becomes more complex.

Most sellers fixate on surface-level metrics, like sales velocity, restock alerts, and Buy Box wins. But after working with dozens of high-performing brands, we’ve learned that real profitability comes from the numbers most sellers overlook. What separates reactive sellers from top-tier operators is their attention to the metrics that drive margin, cash flow, and sustainable growth. Here are the three often-ignored metrics we monitor constantly for our clients—because we’ve seen firsthand the difference they make.

Many brands launch Amazon ad campaigns and then let them run untouched for months—or even years. But Amazon’s ad platform evolves fast. New formats, tools, and trends make yesterday’s winning strategy today’s wasted spend. If you haven’t updated your Amazon ads lately, this post is your wake-up call.

With Prime Day 2025 extending to four full days, it’s not just a longer sale—it’s a bigger operational challenge. For brands managing large catalogs, this added time means more chances to win the Buy Box, or burn through inventory budgets and storage space if you're not careful. Many sellers make the mistake of treating Prime Day like a liquidation event, dumping excess SKUs into FBA without a strategy. That can backfire, triggering long-term storage fees and poor sell-through rates.

In 2025, brands are investing heavily in social media platforms to build awareness. But a common question arises: "Can Amazon benefit from the traffic generated by these social media efforts?" The answer is a resounding yes. By strategically leveraging tools like Amazon Attribution and influencer partnerships, brands can convert social media engagement into tangible Amazon sales.

For brands considering Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA), the promise is clear: streamlined operations, Prime-eligible two-day shipping, and end-to-end logistics managed by one of the most sophisticated fulfillment networks in the world. FBA can help you scale faster, deliver exceptional customer experiences, and reduce the hands-on workload of managing orders and returns. But while FBA offers major advantages, it’s essential to understand the full scope of costs involved, which can impact your margins if you don’t plan for them upfront.
