Seller Sessions Amazon FBA and Private Label

In this session I sat down with conference promoter Augustas Kligys to discuss a new format that originated from Germany for sellers to interact, learn and network. A barcamp is an event where the content is generated by attendees. Based on what topics you as an Amazon seller want to learn about, we will organize multiple breakout rooms throughout the day. The topics will be chosen and decided by the participants (including you!) during the first hour of the event. Rather than following a predetermined schedule that might not work for everyone, we will invite you, experienced sellers and experts, to share your expertise and insights, as well as to get advice on your current challenges.

In this episode I speak with 4 international Amazon sellers about product development, reviews and a bit around launches and visibility. All live from Band Camp put on by Orange Klik and Dragon Flip. This is a new conference format that originally took off in Germany, whereby the content is determined by the delegates on a voting system and then rolled out on the day and delivered.

On the episode I bring in Dan Ashburn and Adam Heist to discuss some of our views and observations on the changes over the last few years. A lot of seller at the top of search have sold, whilst a good chunk come back as sellers, and some as service providers over time... And with the higher walls built around selling on Amazon, is there a shift in volume; of new people coming through? Sometimes, in our community we forget we are in an echo chamber. Of course, there will be plenty of sellers that do not engage directly within and some do not even know it is there as they do not listen to podcasts, Facebook groups or attend networking events. Adam Heist Adam "Heist" Runquist first discovered the Amazon marketplace 4 years ago after being on the executive team of a leading outdoor products brand. After taking that business from 8 to 9 figures - and discovering the power of marketplace channels and physical products brands in the process - Adam has since started, sold and invested in multiple Amazon native brands. In addition to leading and launching his own brands, Adam runs the YouTube Channel "Adam Heist" and is an investor and advisor to Amazon aggregator D1 Brands (who just raised $123M).

On Thursdays with Sharon Even we welcome Christina Passmore, Founder of Christina Ink, to discuss the importance of Social Media Marketing for scaling an Amazon FBA business. Christina discusses the importance of Social Strategy, the benefits of effective social media management, and some great tips to help sellers leverage the best content across multiple channels. About Christina: Christina ditched her luxury airline lifestyle at 40 to start selling on Amazon to test her determination. In 2019 she sprung into action and carved out a 6 figure beauty brand that even some of the biggest names in the Amazon space couldn't believe possible for someone with no experience. Her secret weapon? Unlike most Amazon sellers, Christina understood the power of content marketing and social media marketing to grow a following and skyrocket her reach and sales across the world's largest online marketplace. Her savvy approach to content helped her leverage 7 viral TikTok influencers without paying a dime to catapult her brand across the Canadian market. She transitioned into copywriting and content marketing when she realized covid-19 would force many Amazon sellers out of business. Instead of giving up, she studied Amazon listing creation, content curation, and social media management to help sellers scale their businesses with the same secret weapon that helped her grow two online businesses in less than a year. Content was and is the driving force of her passion and profession, and her innate content marketing skills are a force to be reckoned with.
