Takeaways:

  • If you are going to help a brand or your brand grow, you have to be able to tell its story.
  • You need to have A+ content that answers all the questions that people are asking themselves.
  • You need to tell and show why your brand and product are better than everybody else's without knocking the competition.
  • If you want to sell on Amazon, you better have an inventory, but don't be out of stock.
  • If you are out of stock when people need to buy your product, you drop in the rankings quickly.
  • You need to get your titles right, you should leverage the use of software to find out the best search words to embed in your titles.
  • It is super important to have at least a 15-second promotional video in your gallery.
  • You have to research what people are saying about other products, so you can learn what you need to highlight in your products.
  • You can invest in micro-influencers to promote your product because it is going to get more external traffic to your page.
