In this episode I dive into what’s working when launching and ranking products on Amazon.

Tactics that worked even a few months ago aren’t as effective as they were…

Danny MacMillan chatted recently with Anthony Lee (I’ve had both lads on the show in the past Here with Danny and here with Anthony) and they discussed what’s been working for themselves and their clients. You can read Anthony’s analysis here and listen to Danny’s excellent podcast episode here.

I also discuss the latest changes to Amazon review policy. Be sure to check it out here if you’re already selling on Amazon or if you’re about to.

Lastly, I’ll be in Hong Kong speaking at the Global Sources Summit in a few short weeks. Come along!

Today’s guest is Arnold Shiels from www.dolemanbateman.com.au! He’s an Amazon business expert specialising in Tax and compliance – but don’t panic! It’s a really interesting conversation and super useful if you’re a local or international seller!

He also sells on Amazon himself!

Arnold has been helping Amazon sellers for years, firstly with Australian Amazon Sellers but with the arrival of Amazon here in Australia, he’s found himself in high demand from International Sellers wanting to get a slice of the Amazon Australia market.

Last week we had another Amazon Melbourne FBA meetup at the Flippa offices in Collingwood.

Flippa is an online marketplace where online businesses are bought and sold.

Holly is the Growth Manager at Flippa and she explains who’s buying, who’s selling and how to maximise your sale price when it comes time to sell your Amazon business.

Calli is one of the most experienced eBay and Amazon sellers in Australia! She runs her exclusive Private Label Facebook group Private Label Brand For Amazon & eBay – Australia and helps dozens of her students succeed on Amazon both here in Australia and internationally.

We first met in person at the Retail Global conference in May on the Gold Coast and I’ve been dying to get her on the show to learn from her experience and wisdom.

She shares some of the advice she imparts to her students around category and product selection as well as her thoughts about Amazon Australia.

I hope you enjoy our wide-ranging chat from how she got started with Amazon as an FBM seller (fulfilling all her Amazon orders herself) right through to becoming a fully-fledged FBA seller, mentor and beyond.

This is a really fun interview today with Hamish Conway from Sell Global.

By way of background, I met Hamish at the Retail Global conference up on the Gold Coast in May earlier this year and we sat together with Calliope, Kayla and several others on an Amazon Sellers Panel. Last week we caught up for a coffee and he kindly agreed to come on today’s show and share his story, experience and wisdom.

Hamish and his team help New Zealand Consumer brands expand their businesses through Amazon’s global marketplaces with great success, helping them achieve 5, 6 and 7 figure revenues in very short time-frames.

Hamish shares some of his secrets around product assessment, marketing strategies and frustrations in dealing with Amazon! He understands better than most the challenges of setting up on Amazon as a foreigner and brings a fresh perspective.

Interestingly he helps many food companies get into the notoriously difficult ‘gated’ category of “Groceries and Gourmet Food”.

My thanks go again to Hamish for coming on the show today. He’s a genuine star.
