Amazon Feedback: A Guide to Improving Your Feedback Rating and Reviews
Why is Feedback Important on Amazon Amazon’s vision is to be “earth's most customer-centric company, where customers can find and discover anything they might want to buy online.” Their mission statement revolves around one thing that has always been important to them—the customer. Amazon uses its seller feedback rating to see if third-party sellers are reaching the high standards of customer service it expects. Amazon calculates your feedback rating based on the feedback received from its customers over the last 12 months. If you have aspirations of winning a share of the Buy Box (and who doesn’t?!) then you need to maintain a feedback rating of over 95% and ideally over 98%. Compare these two sellers.

How to Avoid Suspension of your Amazon Account
Amazon is obsessive about providing customers with the best possible shopping experience, and imposes a high standard for their sellers, especially those who sell in high volumes. If Amazon is unhappy with you, your Amazon account could end up suspended. There may not be any warning; One day you log into Amazon as usual, and you're informed that your account has been suspended. This means that you can no longer sell on Amazon and your funds are held hostage. Of course, you can always request for reinstatement, but that can take months. You'll also probably be denied, unless the suspension was a mistake on Amazon's part (unlikely). The best thing you can do is to avoid it in the first place, and that involves identifying any potential problems in fulfilling Amazon's policies for sellers.
10 Mistakes I Made on Amazon when I First Started Selling
I started selling on Amazon for the same reasons that most people do. I wanted to start my own business, work from home, have more freedom and autonomy, and make money while I sleep. My Amazon venture started as a part-time side-hustle while I was still working a full-time job. This was back in 2008, a couple of years after Amazon introduced its Fulfillment by Amazon service, making it easier for busy people like me to start selling online. A majority of my spare time was spent reading “how to sell on Amazon” guides and dreaming of the perfect products to sell. It only took me a few weeks before I had my first product in an Amazon warehouse and my first listings online. I was live. This was supposed to be a major milestone on my journey to online selling success. However, I quickly realized that I still had a lot to learn. The mistakes I made on Amazon

How to Market and Sell Using Amazon Promo Codes
Everybody loves a deal. Retailers regularly have sales and discount days because consumers are drawn to a clearance, like moths to a bug zapper — this is where they make a killing. The same principle applies for online sellers, and for those who sell their products on established merchant websites like Amazon. They can create custom promotional codes or coupons for a product easily and make it readily accessible to a large volume of potential customers. On Amazon, registered customers can find your super deal in “Today’s Deals” right off the bat.
Crucial Differences Between Amazon and eBay
Many sellers make the mistake of putting Amazon and eBay in the same e-commerce basket. They fail to realize that the differences between Amazon and eBay are profound. Let's use an analogy to illustrate my point: Imagine that you are a mechanic for a moment. Now someone with no experience with cars walks in and tells you that repairing a custom hotrod is the same as fixing a pickup truck! You would inform them that yes, the concept is the same, but you go about it in very different ways. This is the correct way to understand the differences between Amazon and eBay. Unfortunately, these differences are often hard for novice sellers to recognize. A good understanding of these differences enables a seller to potentially earn a good profit on both sites. But a lack of knowledge can quickly cause a seller to lose a lot of money fast.
