#1001: Are bundles dead on Amazon? Let's talk about it.

Have you ever seen bundles on Amazon? It's a listing where two or more complimentary items are sold together (examples would be a needles and thread for sewing or a coffee bean grinder and a bag of coffee beans etc.)   Is it safe to sell bundles on Amazon? Is it within Amazon policy to combine complimentary items and create a new listing? Can I include brands I don't own? What are the risk?   Is this idea dead without a letter of permission from the brands I sell? (also called an LOA or Letter Of Authorization)   In the summer of 2024 Amazon made some policy changes for creating and regulating bundles. A good handful of sellers were suspended for having created bundles improperly and their bundles were removed from the catalog.   To our knowledge, all those sellers were reinstated thankfully, but it caused a bit of a stir at the time.  After the dust settled entirely, we decided it was time for us to revisit the bundle topic and see how sellers are doing in this arena. A leading bundle expert and coach in our community is Leanna Crocco. She has been thriving with bundles on Amazon for over a decade at this point and she has some incredible insights into what has changed and what the landscape of opportunity now looks like as she continues to use the strategies taught in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com to expand and flourish!   Stick around for the last few minutes of the episode today to hear an update about "The System". The System (aka 3PMercury found at SilentJim.com/thesystem) is the software that completely automated Khang’s $3 million replens business with 10,000 ASINs while requiring only a team of only 2 people!

Are you the bottleneck in your own business?

#995: What Keepa can and can't do that few understand. Make better inventory decisions after hearing this!

Today's show discusses an inexpensive power tool for Amazon sellers called "Keepa".    Keepa is an indispensable part of any responsible and knowledgeable reseller on Amazon.   While it's an incredibly useful tool in the hands of an experienced seller, there are several things it cannot do that many sellers assume it CAN do!   The things keepa CAN NOT tell you include: > The buy box price across all regions > When sales are occurring or how many are happening (not tool can do that) > Which sellers are winning sales (it can only tell you about the buy box in one area)   It can help you make fantastic inventory decisions, BUT if you make false assumptions about the data that keepa is giving you, you'll wind up missing so many great ASINs and you'll be prematurely jumping on bad ASINs.   You can watch this epsiode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/9xp2mKxhnxg   Show note LINKS: My Silent Team Facebook group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam 100% FREE!
