Among the many sellers complaining, many have seen their sales drop by at least one-third, and many have seen their orders cut in half. However, in contrast to the falling orders, the sellers’ advertising data has been on the rise.

The current situation makes people wonder, is it really the off-season that has come early? What are the reasons?

Involution is still serious. Even today, some categories on Amazon are still involution. A seller of auto parts complained: peers are involution like crazy. The price of the same product has dropped by $10 (or more). There are exposed CPCs of $2+. Competitors are spending money on advertising like it’s free.

In addition to auto parts, price wars in categories such as keyboards and lighting are still ongoing, and many peers are still clearing out their inventory at low prices.

The golden months of March and April are approaching. How should Amazon operators apply for jobs correctly?

Here is a seller's opinion on going to work:

1. Going to work means: we sell our working time and work results to the company.

2. Going to work means: We use the platform built by the company to reduce the risks and transaction costs of making money directly in the market, so that we can make money effectively.

Assume that we use the first interpretation to work: (This type of position is generally not directly oriented towards profit creation)

We sell our working time and work results to the company.

Then the white technology method to increase income:  

 Improve your ability to make your achievements more valuable. Increase your working hours to create more achievements. Improve your work efficiency to create more achievements. Then find customers who are more likely to pay for your work achievements and satisfy them. If the customers are satisfied, you will get bonuses or senior positions.

Then the black technology method to increase income:

 Keep looking for new rich bosses, bragging about their own to get more salary, cheating more, slacking off less and working less overtime, so that it seems that the unit time and less work results get super value income. It's okay to join friends to complain about the company

As for the final outcome, we all know that the more you play with white technology, the wider the path, the more valuable it is, and the more you really earn. For those who play with black technology, you can only make more money by cheating new bosses during the industry bonus period. After the bonus period, when there are no rich and stupid people entering the market, there will be no chance, and you can only keep changing jobs, and then you can't change jobs when you are old.

The so-called "mooing fish" is to provide poor service to customers, which is similar to the situation when we buy things and are shortchanged or sold at a lower price. The so-called bonus is to provide more compensation for good service that exceeds expectations. The so-called overtime is to make more efforts to improve customer satisfaction. The so-called training and learning is to improve one's own ability.

From this perspective:

No matter whether it is a big company or a small company, as long as it respects value and pays a reasonable price, it is a good company.

Suppose we work using the second interpretation (this type of position is directly oriented towards performance and profits).

This type of position comes with commissions, dividends, etc.

If we take care of product selection, procurement, finance, logistics, capital, stores, operations, promotion, etc. by ourselves and then try to make money, the risk is too high. It requires a lot of investment, a professional team and various resources, and the cost is too high. So we need to join a company. All companies in the market are potential partners.

Choosing a good partner is very important.

As long as we can build a platform that allows us to give full play to our abilities and distribute profits reasonably, it is a good company whether it is a large company or a small company.

This year's golden March and silver April are not so friendly to many cross-border workers.

This is inseparable from the overall market environment. The demand for operation positions in many companies has obviously decreased, and the recruiters may have taken the initiative. However, this does not mean that we workers need to lower our attitude to cater to some insincere companies. And the recruiters should not only pay attention to whether the operation quotation is inflated or not, but also pay attention to the strength of the applicants. If the low-salary recruits only do nothing, it may be a loss for the company in the end.

In short, an interview is a two-way selection process. Everyone should seize the current opportunity and find a satisfactory job!
