Our guest is Adam Melenkivitz, founder of Test Squared, a platform that helps Amazon sellers grow with FTC-compliant reviews.

How TestSquared's matching system works without breaking Amazon's rules. Why most reviews aren't five-star ratings and that's actually beneficial.

Amazon Sellers Special :The Future of AI and Software Innovation Host: Danny McMillan Guest: Max Sinclair In this episode of Seller Sessions, host Danny McMillan welcomes back Max Sinclair to discuss the evolving role of AI in software development and its impact on the Amazon ecosystem. Fresh from the Seller Sessions Live conference, Danny and Max share real-world insights on the pace of innovation and what's next for the industry. Key Takeaways The Commoditization of Software: Base models like OpenAI's GPT and Claude are improving rapidly, threatening the traditional software model. Max highlights the need for vertical integration—adding proprietary data and API connections to general models to offer unique value. No-code tools are becoming powerful enablers, allowing non-technical entrepreneurs to build viable businesses quickly. Prompting vs. Problem Solving: Danny argues that perfect prompts aren't essential—creative questioning and clear thinking deliver better outcomes. Max shares OpenAI's stance: prompt engineering is seen as a flaw; future models will understand context intuitively without complex prompting. Freemium and Democratization: Max's company is transitioning to a freemium model, offering free AI-powered audits for Amazon sellers and charging for deeper features. This move aims to lower barriers for users, encouraging wider AI adoption in e-commerce without heavy upfront costs. Culture of Rapid Innovation: Max emphasizes a two-week innovation cycle: new ideas are prioritized bi-weekly to stay ahead of the rapid changes in AI. Their advantage lies in domain expertise, proprietary datasets, and a patented technology stack. AI and the Future Workforce: AI will inevitably replace some traditional roles, but also create massive opportunities for entrepreneurs and early adopters. Danny discusses how he's reorganizing his teams, integrating AI workflows to remove bottlenecks and scale efficiently. What's Coming Next Danny teases an upcoming episode on autonomous AI browsers that could completely reshape customer journeys on platforms like Amazon. Both agree: adapting quickly is the only way forward in the rapidly shifting AI landscape. Summary: This conversation is a roadmap for sellers, founders, and marketers who want to future-proof their businesses. The consensus: embrace AI now or risk being left behind.

In this episode, Dave talks about the recent IPO of a major Chinese Amazon seller, SainStore, and explores key insights from their filings. He covers the diverse brand strategies employed by the company (and a lot of other Chinese companies, in fact), the viability of the aggregator model in China, and the company's profitability metrics, inventory management practices, and even their social credit score. Another Amazon seller has gone public... but in China. It seems that the aggregator model has been working well over in the East, but what specifically are they doing to succeed? Here's the 5 takeaways that I learned when looking over this company's IPO fillings. Struggling with tariffs? Unsure about upcoming changes? Let's talk! With Portless, you only pay tariffs after your customers pay you – so your cash always moves faster than your costs. Schedule a risk assessment and leverage tariff deferment today. All new customers get $1,000 to reinvest in their business. The Big Takeaways The aggregator model in China is thriving, with companies creating multiple brands in-house (rather than purchasing companies at 4x and 5x). Profit margins for major Chinese sellers are significantly lower than Western expectations. SainSmart holds about 25% of their revenue in inventory, which could turn out to be a HUGE risk in cash flow. The social credit score in China is a real and impactful metric for businesses. 75% of SainSmart's revenue comes from Amazon, but they also diversify across other channels that you wouldn't expect. The need for sellers to chase off-Amazon sales for better pricing power is ABSOLUTELY crucial. Chinese sellers are adept at utilizing multiple sales channels, including lesser-known marketplaces. The business model for Amazon sellers is evolving towards higher revenue with lower margins.

Ex-Amazon insider Kara Babb shares how to use social media, branding, and AI to build unforgettable brands and drive real emotional connections with customers. Kara Babb, a former Amazon vendor manager, joins us to unravel the complexities of branding in the ever-evolving e-commerce landscape. Drawing from her rich experience, Kara emphasizes the necessity of an omnichannel strategy, highlighting how sustainable brand success relies heavily on building a presence both on and off Amazon. She shares her insights on the significance of external traffic and creative brand awareness campaigns, with compelling examples like Poppy and BirdBuddy, to show how they can create sales surges and foster growth in the competitive market. Our exploration takes a fascinating turn as we examine BirdBuddy's innovative use of TikTok to capture the millennial and Gen Z audience, uncovering how creative content strategies can lead to explosive viral success. We discuss the hurdles platforms like Amazon face in the realm of social media, and the cultural barriers that live shopping encounters in the West compared to its success in Asia. Kara provides a nuanced understanding of why companies like Amazon and TikTok sometimes struggle when stepping outside their core competencies, offering a window into the future of digital engagement and consumer interaction. The conversation moves toward the frontier of AI in shopping, where we discuss how platforms like TikTok and AI models are reshaping consumer search behaviors. We introduce the concept of Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and its implications for brand strategies, particularly for smaller sellers facing rising costs and international competition. Wrapping up, we delve into how brands like Scrub Daddy, Apple, and Chanel create deep emotional connections with their customers, emphasizing the power of brand identity to transcend mere transactions and maintain a lasting presence in consumers' lives.

The Impact of US Tariffs on Chinese Brands with Chris PereiraIn the latest episode of the Asia Business Podcast, host Art Dicker sits down with Chris Pereira, CEO of Impact. Known for his flawless Chinese and extensive work with brands in China, Chris offers a wealth of insights into the complexities of the current trade environment, particularly focusing on the US-China relationship amidst ongoing global trade disruptions.Introducing Chris PereiraConnect with ChrisChris Pereira is a seasoned expert in facilitating business development among Chinese brands, helping them navigate Western markets, especially the US. His strategic acumen in bridging cultural gaps and understanding market dynamics has made him a respected figure in the industry. During the podcast, Chris shares his perspectives on how Chinese companies are coping with the current trade climate and potential future strategies.The Impact of Tariffs on Chinese BrandsAs tariffs continue to pose significant challenges, Chris highlights the differential impacts on companies, particularly those engaged in cross-border trade. Chinese sellers on platforms like Amazon face tightening conditions, necessitating a reevaluation of their market entries. In contrast, manufacturers with established operations in the US find themselves in a more favorable position to counter these barriers.Adapting Strategies Amid Trade TensionsChris discusses the strategic pivot many brands are considering, such as redirecting efforts towards more receptive markets like Europe. He emphasizes the importance of localization and maintaining operational agility to mitigate the effects of trade disruptions. Companies are advised to invest in strong local partnerships to better navigate these unsteady waters.Navigating Policy UncertaintyUncertainty in US trade policy is a prevailing concern for many of Chris's clients. This unpredictability has split businesses into those increasing local investments in the US and others exploring alternative markets, such as Germany. Chris points out that stability in local policy environments could encourage further foreign investments in manufacturing within the US.The Role of Chinese Expertise in Global ManufacturingAmidst these challenges, Chris sees potential for greater collaboration. He posits that Chinese technical expertise could be instrumental in reviving US manufacturing, aligning closely with incentives for foreign investment in American industries, potentially turning geopolitical friction into mutual growth opportunities.Future Outlook: Balancing Between Policy and Business RealitiesThe podcast delves into the potential consequences of prolonged trade disputes, including possible shifts in global reserve currencies. Chris suggests that current policies could inadvertently accelerate diversification strategies among Chinese businesses, ultimately impacting US influence globally.Building Resilience: Chris's Advice to BusinessesChris advises businesses to remain adaptable and proactive in securing market positions by fostering local relationships and considering broader strategic moves into less volatile markets. His counsel underscores the critical need for businesses to stay informed and responsive to rapidly evolving market conditions.Final ThoughtsIn this insightful exchange, Chris Pereira provides a nuanced understanding of the current trade milieu, offering practical advice for navigating an increasingly complex international landscape. His company, Impact, continues to aid businesses in making strategic transitions and achieving sustainable growth in uncertain times.Timestamps00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome00:53 Impact of Tariffs on Chinese Brands02:46 Localization vs. Export Challenges03:54 European Market Opportunities05:01 US Policy Uncertainty and Its Effects07:25 Manufacturing and Trade Dynamics09:30 Future of US-China Trade Relations12:24 Strategies for Chinese Companies22:15 Currency and Economic Speculations33:41 Closing Thoughts and OptimismBe sure to reach out to Chris and his team here: https://impact5r.com/ ProducerJacob ThomasFollow UsLinkedInApple Podcasts
