This week we’re joined by Regina Peterburgsky from the Women on Amazon Podcast to discuss Amazon’s really surprising move that allows Brand Registered Sellers to contact Amazon’s customers who’ve left a 3 Star (or below) review.

In some ways this is quite a controversial development as Amazon has, (up until now), been trigger happy to suspend sellers if they’ve tried to influence reviews on Amazon’s platform.

This new ability to enter into dialogue with customers by offering full refunds, or asking for additional feedback is quite remarkable. Our recommendation is to tread very carefully!

We also discuss our upcoming event, The Amazon Collective Retreat on weekend of the 6^th, 7^th and 8^th of August this year. The conference will be held of-site in the beautiful Yarra Valley just outside of Melbourne. It’s strictly for 6, 7 and even 8 figure Amazon business owners based here in Australia and New Zealand – it’s not for newbies of beginners.

This episode we welcome an Australian Amazon Seller, Jason Hetherington who in 2 short years has built a Million dollar brand selling on Amazon and his own website.

Like so many successful sellers, he’s built a raving community fanbase of over 20,000 peeps which has helped with everything from product development, launching new products on Amazon and most importantly the value of his business when it comes to exit.

Like most fast growing sellers, Jason’s run into various issues around Hijackers, Copycats, logistical nightmares and cashflow!

It’s a great story and well worth tuning in until the end…

I also forgot to ask him what was the best way to make contact, but he’s a wonderful member of the Australian Seller Facebook Community, so if you would like to connect with Jason, just head over to www.theaustralianseller.com/facebook.
