Forgetting to collect sales tax

• Many salesmen old or new don’t collect

sales tax.

• They then incur a tax liability and end up

paying from their own pockets.

• So salesmen must always remember to

gather the sales tax.

Going for one of the top 100 products

• It’s not advisable to go in for the top 100 products

since the marketplace will be saturated by the

time the product reaches it.

• Sellers of the product are already trying to lower

the prices to compete with one another.

• So, they should not go for higher ranking goods

since they will end up losing money

Going by assumptions

• Many international salesmen opt to sell products

which they think are hot meaning most wanted

by Americans.

• Before they handpick products for selling, they

need to comprehend market trends.

• This is a big mistake and can lead to huge losses.

Not fulfilling orders

• Initial orders must be in place i.e. salesmen

must send the orders in time.

• Enter all the tracking information and ensure

that there is stock in the goods.

• Not fulfilling orders will create a bad reputation

with Amazon.

Undervaluing the effectiveness of social media

• Social media accounts propel the popularity of a

product to great heights.

• Social media offers a place for customers to interact

and channelizes brand and customer interaction.

• On the other hand, bad reviews about a product can

be detrimental to the business but this negative

situation can be converted into a positive one by

being polite.

Incorrect prices and inventory quantities

• As soon as you create a listing on Amazon, in a

matter of seconds to minutes, the pricing and

inventory quantities goes live.

• Designate zero inventories, if there is none and if it

has, then try not to overstate.

• On every new listing, follow it and make certain

that you apply a true price and inventory level; this

will protect your business from being wiped away.

Contradictory items and product listings

• New sellers on Amazon fail to heed to the

sameness of items and product listings.

• Do not link your products to listings.

• If they are unlike and try to match that is almost

the same, which is never good enough for

Amazon.

Late response to customer inquiries

• This is one of the most common flaws, as with

online selling.

• As an Amazon seller, you will be allotted a time

period to respond to customer queries, say 24

hours.

• If you fail to reply then you will get dinged by

Amazon and too many dings will lead to

suspension of the account.

Amazon as your contender

• you can’t look forward to getting many sales.

• For the reason that, Amazon Retail controls.

• Its capability to succeed the competitive sale at

even unsuccessful levels.

Ignoring customer feedback

• Customers are the king of any business and

overlooking their feedback can ruin your selling.

• Amazon keeps an eye on the seller performance

and product quality.

• You are new an Amazon seller, then you should

consider monitoring the quality of the feedback

and apply changes with too much of negative

feedbacks.
