ATTENTION AMAZON SELLERS: Change is coming

<p>Everything changes - for good or bad. While changes can make room for opportunities and growth, the adjustments that come with them could be <em>challenging</em>. They’re not always the same, and they can cause stress, time, and money. If change causes you overwhelm - I hear you. I’m pretty change-averse myself. But change is frequent in online business - especially on an Ecommerce platform like Amazon. The best thing we can do is to know and prepare for what’s coming.</p> <p> </p> <p>In this episode, I discuss an overview of Amazon's major changes and how they’re going to affect every seller. I share some facts and statistics that show how Amazon has grown and dominated the Ecommerce space and the antitrust lawsuits filed against them.
