Amazon FBA inventory management is no longer a backend task, it's a profit lever just as vital as PPC.

The moment your Amazon conversion rate drops by half is when true brand resilience is tested. In this tactical deep-dive, we examine a real-world crisis where one premium brand watched their conversion rate collapse virtually overnight, triggering a cascade of mounting problems: skyrocketing ad costs, plummeting impression share, and rapidly declining sales across their entire catalog.For brands heavily dependent on advertising—particularly those with a 60/40 or greater split favoring ad-driven sales over organic—these conversion crises hit especially hard. The downward spiral accelerates as reduced conversion forces bid reductions, leading to fewer impressions, fewer clicks, and ultimately, a severe drop in revenue and profitability.We walk through the comprehensive troubleshooting process: examining your metrics funnel from impressions through click-through rate to conversion; determining exactly when the drop occurred; analyzing what changes (if any) preceded it; and the challenging reality that sometimes there is no clear "smoking gun" to blame. Amazon's platform complexity means the true cause could be algorithmic changes, competitor actions, or other factors completely invisible to sellers.Most valuably, we reveal the surprisingly powerful price lever that many premium brands underestimate. Through careful margin analysis, our guest discovered they could reduce prices by 20% while maintaining healthy 30% contribution margins—because when properly calculated, the compounding benefits of improved click-through, conversion, and advertising efficiency often outweigh the perceived margin sacrifice. Learn how referral fee reductions, TACOS improvements, and sales velocity increases can transform what seems like a crisis into an opportunity for brand strengthening.Whether you're currently facing a conversion crisis or preparing for the inevitable day when one strikes your business, this episode provides both immediate tactical responses and strategic frameworks to not just survive the challenge but emerge stronger on the other side. Have you experienced a sudden conversion drop? We'd love to hear your story and solutions.

The FedEx Ground Unauthorized Package Charge is a fee rarely encountered by shippers, but when it appears, a shipper will take immediate action. FedEx recently announced general changes to surcharges on unauthorized shipments that require additional handling. Generally, FedEx announces these fee increases in September each year, which take effect at the beginning of the following year. FedEx's unauthorized and additional handling fees increase by about 20% per year, but have also doubled.

The line between AI hype and reality is blurring for Amazon sellers. What's actually working right now, and what still falls short of the promises?We're witnessing dramatic improvements in AI image generation tools over the past 6-12 months. ChatGPT and Gemini can now create compelling product images for certain categories and make sophisticated edits that previously required professional Photoshop skills. Need to change a background, adjust lighting, or swap in different models using your product? AI handles these tasks remarkably well, creating natural shadows and maintaining proper perspective automatically.The most striking revelation? Amazon products with obviously AI-generated images are selling in massive volumes with excellent reviews. While photorealistic perfection might be ideal, consumers are demonstrating that "good enough" AI imagery doesn't hinder purchasing decisions for many product categories.Where AI delivers immediate ROI is rapid A/B testing. You can now create multiple image variations in minutes rather than hours, testing which demographics, backgrounds, or visual elements drive the highest click-through and conversion rates. For brands willing to experiment, these incremental improvements compound into significant sales growth.Custom GPTs represent another breakthrough, with Amazon sellers building specialized AI assistants for listing optimization, keyword research, and content generation. These tools require minimal technical expertise yet dramatically streamline workflows that previously consumed hours of time.Not everything lives up to the hype yet. Fully automated Amazon advertising remains problematic – while AI excels at bid optimization, it often goes "nuts" with keyword harvesting without human oversight. The technology is advancing rapidly, though, with today's "impossible" demonstrations likely becoming standard practice within 3-6 months.Ready to leverage AI for your Amazon business? Start with image testing, explore custom GPTs, and remember that for any business challenge you face, someone has probably already built an AI solution that can help. The future of Amazon selling is arriving faster than most realize – are you prepared?

Cuando alguien se lanza a vender en Amazon FBA, suele imaginar resultados rápidos y ganancias fáciles. Pero, según Daniel Miranda, mentor de vendedores en Estados Unidos y autor del libro “Cómo vender en Amazon FBA desde cero”, uno de los mayores errores no tiene que ver con la plataforma, ni con temas técnicos, sino con la mentalidad con la que se empieza: “Mucha gente cree que el fracaso en Amazon se debe a ciertos errores técnicos, como no saber importar, usar PPC, definir los taxes, etc., pero el problema más grande es que la mayoría de las personas tienen expectativas poco realistas”. Para Daniel, el exceso de promesas vacías que circula en redes sociales y cursos sin metodología, alimenta falsas ideas de éxito instantáneo. Este tipo de expectativas suele provocar desánimo frente a los primeros tropiezos. “Sucede que después de una caída, los emprendedores que recién comienzan siempre se desaniman”, dice. La clave no está en evitar los desafíos, sino en tener un enfoque más estratégico, realista y rentable. “El problema de Amazon no es la falta de ventas porque tienes el PPC para activarlas. El problema real es ser rentable”, sostiene nuestro invitado. Lanzar un producto no se trata de subirlo y esperar. Se trata de comprender el mercado, hacer números y tomar decisiones con datos. Daniel insiste en que sin una mínima claridad financiera, el camino puede ser cuesta arriba. Y esa claridad puede comenzar por lo más simple: “Una claridad financiera te la da una simple hoja de Excel. Si no te llevas bien con esa herramienta, difícil que puedas llevar un estudio financiero”. Muchos emprendedores no dimensionan correctamente el costo real de lanzar una marca: “Dejando de lado los gastos de accesorios, como Helium 10 o Amazon Seller Central, te puedes gastar USD 6,000 para lanzar una marca. Hay personas que han gestionado los precios con los chinos y han comenzado con USD 3,000, pero no es la regla común. Esto incluye producto, flete internacional, taxes, certificaciones e inspecciones”. Más allá del presupuesto, elegir bien el producto es un paso decisivo. Y ahí también hay errores frecuentes. “El estudio del mercado es el 80 por ciento del éxito o el fracaso de un negocio. Puedes dar un brinco de fe y luego ocurre que tenemos mil unidades de productos stockeadas en Amazon, no se venden y perdemos mucho dinero”. Por eso Daniel recomienda no enamorarse de una idea y testear antes de invertir. “No nos enfocamos en un producto, sino que filtramos entre cientos de opciones para elegir los que tienen mayores probabilidades de éxito”. Y aclara que “los productos que llegan a producirse son los que ya validamos en el mercado”. Esa validación comienza mucho antes del lanzamiento oficial. “En la segunda fase hacemos las cotizaciones. Tenemos que validar el producto de manera financiera y si es rentable comprar los productos para luego venderlos”, cuenta nuestro experto. Incluso, Daniel va un paso más allá: “Hago una preventa como validación de mercado”. Esta práctica permite no solo testear si el producto tiene salida, sino también reducir el riesgo inicial. Una vez validado el producto, muchos vendedores cometen el error de invertir grandes sumas en publicidad, sin conocer realmente los márgenes o el nivel de competencia. “El PPC es una métrica que no puedes conocer hasta que ya gastaste. Lo que yo hago es buscar productos que no requieran PPC o que necesiten muy poco”, relata Daniel. En este punto, sugiere prestar atención a los productos High Ticket: “Con los productos High Ticket hay mucha menos competencia, por eso solemos elegirlos”. Otro mito que nuestro invitado desarma es el del branding obligatorio desde el inicio: “La mayoría de las personas no tienen grandes presupuestos, por eso no tiene sentido al inicio registrar la marca si no saben si tienen ventas”. Lo que aconseja es avanzar paso a paso, evaluando cada decisión en función de su retorno. En ese camino, evitar mercados saturados también es una estrategia clave: “Un error muy grande es que las personas entran a mercados extremadamente saturados, porque cuesta mucho dinero destacar”. Aunque lanzar una marca propia puede parecer más profesional, también puede implicar riesgos mayores si no se hace con respaldo de datos. “Hoy está impuesto como una verdad inamovible que, si haces Private Label, sí o sí necesitas PPC, pero no es cierto. Yo tengo productos que se venden orgánicamente, pero mis competidores son pocos”, subraya nuestro experto. En esos casos, bastan acciones simples para lograr tracción inicial: “10 reseñas son suficientes para que el comprador te elija”. Para quienes quieren resultados más rápidos o tienen poco capital, Daniel propone otro enfoque: “El dinero no se puede hacer de la noche a la mañana en Amazon, pero para tener dinero más rápido recomiendo siempre Arbitraje”. Mientras se gana experiencia, esta estrategia permite generar flujo de caja sin tantos riesgos. Vender en Amazon no es magia. Requiere estrategia, paciencia, validación y análisis. Y sobre todo, evitar errores que se repiten en quienes se lanzan sin una metodología clara. “La ejecución es sólo apretar algunos botones al final”, recuerda Daniel. Sin embargo, lo importante sucede mucho antes. Instagram: danieljmiranda2

Learn how your consumers truly experience your brand today! Last year, Amazon's Prime Day results were lukewarm across the board with sellers seeing a 1.5x - 2x increase in sales except for a select few.  How was this year's Prime Day?  Well, Amazon claims that Prime Day 2025 was the biggest prime day ever compared to previous years. But is it really?  With Prime Day done and dusted, Dave reveals his brands' revenue numbers during the big shopping holiday to share how his experience was.  Dave also shares how 10 anonymous brands from various revenue numbers did during Prime Day, with data taken from SellerSnooper. Are Amazon's claims BS? Or are they technically correct? We find out in today's episode.  The Big Takeaway Initial reports indicated a 40% dip in Day 1 sales. Amazon claims that Prime Day 2025 was the biggest Prime Day ever.  8 out of 10 tracked companies saw sales gains during Prime Day, but how big were they?  Sellers reported varied performance, with some seeing modest gains. Many sellers felt Prime Day performance was average this year. Sellers should definitely be cautious about discounting heavily during Prime Day.
