Happy New Year!

​

2025 will be a fantastic year for serious Amazon sellers.

​

Let's get after it!

​

On today's agenda:

​

• How to adapt to Amazon's constant changes

• 2024 Amazon Seller recap (and my 2025 predictions)

• My primary goals

• Amazon's newest target

Amazon Is Changing - Here's How We Adapt

​

This week I sat down with Danan Coleman, a 10+ year Amazon veteran wholesale seller and agency owner.

​

Danan's agency helps sellers/brands get 10-15% of their negative product reviews removed without breaking TOS.

​

We also spend a good deal of the conversation talking about:

​

• HOW Amazon is changing

• WHAT we should be doing to adapt

​

2024 Recap + 2025 Predictions

​

In 2024 lots of sellers quit while others had their best year ever.

​

But I'm fully convinced that 2025 will be a breakout year for the serious sellers who stay focused.

​

There is still so much upside and untapped opportunity on the platform.

​

Both myself and my community are doubling down on wholesale in 2025 and I'm confident it'll be our best year yet.

​

I share a 2024 recap as well as my 2025 predictions here:

I'm excited to get my mortgage paid off so I can dump the majority of my profits into investments like crypto, real estate, and index funds.

Amazon's Newest Target

​

The FTC has been breathing down Amazon's neck for issues like:

​

• Review manipulation

• Inauthentic products

• Monopolistic tendencies

​

But they recently started targeting a slightly different issue:

​

Paid influencer reviews.

​

There's nothing wrong with an influencer being paid to review a product.

​

As long as the review is honest and unbiased.

​

The issue comes when influencers are paid to give positive reviews.

​

And that's what Amazon is cracking down on.

​

​This article lays out Amazon's strategy for responding to a recent FTC ruling requiring them to police this form of review manipulation more closely.

​

​

That's it for our first newsletter of 2025.

​

Now go out and crush your New Year's resolutions and make this the best year yet.

​

And remember...

​

You're only one supplier away!
