Send us a text

Agentic AI, tariffs, and the slow death of Amazon freebies—it’s a big week in marketplace news. In this episode of Selling on Giants – eCommerce News & Updates, Mr. Will breaks down what Walmart’s AI-driven “store of the future” means for your catalog, why Target Plus still feels like a members-only club, and how Amazon is tightening compliance while retiring the tools that didn’t deliver.

We cover:

• Walmart’s Agentic AI strategy—and how it’s quietly reshaping marketplace operations
• Target Plus’s expansion and what it takes to get in (and thrive)
• Amazon’s new real-time Vendor Central chat tools
• The “In Full Delivery” chargeback policy starting July 21
• Consumer behavior shifts caused by rising tariffs
• Bulk coupon uploads: a win for big catalogs
• Q1 2025 earnings and what the big players are really prioritizing
• The retirement of Amazon Posts and the MYCE tool
• Why keyword stuffing titles will now block your flat file uploads
