Growing your eCommerce Business, eBay & Surviving Amazon Suspensions

We hope your Black Friday and Q4 sales are meeting expectations! Our clients see their sales more concentrated than ever around the BF/CM period. Does Black Friday boost Q4 sales, or is it an unwelcome American import that concentrates sales in a short period and erodes margins? We'd love to hear your views!

Channel of the month: eBay

In our recent LinkedIn survey, 46% of respondents thought eBay was not worth the trouble. While eBay is not the eCommerce force it once was, it still accounts for around 10% of online retail and is a great channel for new and distressed stock. As a commission-based marketplace, it is low-risk and can help you reach customers worldwide. Furthermore, eBay is now commission-free for personal accounts, giving the platform a welcome boost!

We recommend that all retailers consider eBay as part of their channel mix. To learn more, check out our?eBay guides?or take our?eBay course.

How to Survive Amazon Account Issues

This month's podcast discusses surviving Amazon account issues, including the dreaded account suspension. We cover the different ways your account can be restricted, what to do if your account is affected and how to avoid problems in the first place.

Our founder, Trevor, has survived many account suspensions and shared his (sometimes traumatic) experience. Don't miss his advice on recovering permanently closed accounts.

Have a great festive season, and see you in 2025.
