Previously, the "Sales Performance" section of the seller backend quietly changed its location, and this month, Amazon's global store assistant was officially discontinued. A series of measures have caused sellers to start complaining about Amazon: "It becomes more and more difficult to use, and I feel that my enthusiasm for Amazon has decreased a lot every day."
Doesn’t Amazon have any other useful features? Actually, not really. Recently, Amazon has quietly launched these useful features and tools. Let’s take a look at what they are and what benefits they bring to sellers. In-Stock Head Start function is now available Yesterday, Amazon released a notice about the " In-Stock Head Start feature opening ", indicating that this feature can automatically enable buyers to find and purchase related out-of-stock products. It is understood that this feature is currently open in the European site. Amazon calls this program "Inventory First Start" and with it, even if sellers' products are out of stock and in transit, buyers can find and purchase out-of-stock products in advance, which means there will be more products for buyers to choose from and sellers will get higher and more stable sales. Sellers who join In-Stock Head Start will receive the following benefits: Visibility: Products en route to Amazon fulfillment centers appear in search results, which provides customers with more choices and helps increase product detail page views. Sales: Buyers can purchase temporarily out-of-stock items, thereby increasing sales.
Inventory efficiency: Accepting customer orders while your products are on their way to Amazon fulfillment centers can reduce the time between shipment and sale. Additionally, sellers’ fees and Inventory Performance Index (IPI) scores will not be affected for those participating in the program. It is worth noting that the prerequisite for joining this "In-Stock Early Start" pilot program feature is that sellers use Amazon's carrier platform or Amazon Global Logistics to send out-of-stock inventory to Amazon's fulfillment centers. Brother-in-law: As long as you use the logistics I picked, I will allow you to pre-sell out-of-stock products. Seller: My brother-in-law’s schemes are getting more and more sophisticated. I can’t afford his logistics. New tools to improve product information quality
Recently, Amazon launched a tool to improve the quality of product information - the product information quality dashboard , which can highlight important product information to sellers. The product information control panel has the following main functions: 1. Improve exposure: Buyers will use specific attributes to filter search results. Product attributes & category nodes are one of the six major traffic entrances on Amazon. Adding these attributes can ensure that when the seller's products meet the buyer's requirements, as long as the buyer uses the corresponding filtering conditions to search, the seller's products will not be missed.
2. Enable product overview experience: Highlight the important attributes of the product above the key points on the product detail page, which helps buyers easily evaluate the product and make purchasing decisions faster.
3. Reduce buyer returns: Buyers often return products or give bad reviews due to missing key product information on the detail page (for example, compatibility features of headphones and data cables). By adding more detailed information, the number of returns can be reduced.
4. Take timely action: This tool will highlight product information that needs to be completed before a certain date to avoid situations where the product may be suppressed.This tool allows sellers to understand product information and manage product lists more intuitively. Sellers can also use this tool by visiting [Inventory] → [Manage Inventory] → [Product Information Quality Control Panel]. Added the function of denying ASIN and brand
When sellers check the automatic advertising report, they often see many ASIN codes, some of which have clicks but no conversions. Previously, Amazon backend did not support negating invalid ASINs, resulting in lower listing conversions and wasted advertising budgets. But now Amazon has launched a new feature that can solve this problem. Recently, Amazon has added a new feature to automatic advertising in the background, and sellers can set negative products for automatic advertising groups . Now Amazon has added a negative product column in the background, and sellers can add the product ASIN they want to negate to the list. This function can effectively reduce the advertising cost-effectiveness (ACOS) and prevent advertising budget from being wasted, which is very practical for sellers. Non-brand sellers can upload video ads Previously, Amazon's advertising section added the ability to upload video ads, but this feature was only available to brand sellers. Recently, Amazon announced that it will allow non-brand sellers to upload videos to the "Images" section of product detail pages in the third quarter. Amazon has found that when videos are available, customers visit fewer product detail pages, spend less on advertising, and that ad videos help buyers make more informed purchasing decisions. The notification also states that in the Images section, Amazon will always display videos provided by a single selling partner, and brand owners will be given priority over non-brands for this placement. However, if a brand owner does not provide a video, Amazon will display a non-brand uploaded video for that product. Key point: This function will take priority over brand sellers, which means that non-brand sellers can only upload videos if brand sellers have not uploaded videos. Some sellers who have recently tried using video ads said that the function works quite well, the click-through rate is indeed much higher, it is easier to occupy the homepage, and the bidding price is much lower. ▲ The picture comes from Zhiwubuyan Nowadays, short video marketing is on the rise. For non-brand sellers, the opening of video advertising means that sellers have added a channel for exposure, and interested sellers can also give it a try. At present, these features launched by Amazon are quite practical and can help sellers better operate and manage their stores. Have sellers tried these features? What is your attitude towards these tools? Welcome to leave a message in the comment section~
