Today, we are interviewing people live here at the Prosper show that's going to give their best strategies,

tips, and you're going to even learn about a marketplace.

Maybe you never thought that you would sell on.

How cool is that?

Pretty cool, I think.

Hello, everybody, and welcome to another episode of the series sellers podcast by Helium 10.

I'm our host, Bradley Sutton, and this is the show that's a completely BS-free, unscripted,

and unrehearsed, organic conversation about serious strategies for serious sellers of any level in the

e-commerce world. For those listening just on the radio or on your podcast player,

radio, nobody listens to radios anymore, your car radio, but we're here at the Prosper Show. That's why I might sound a little bit different. We are recording a live episode. We haven't done this before where we're going around to different booths and different just Amazon sellers out there. And we're just interviewing them, asking them what their best tips and strategies are, what they think of the Prosper Show. And I really hope you like this kind of like collection of interviews here. It's kind of like maybe 10 little mini podcast in one. So hope you enjoy this episode. All right, so next up, we've got Michael here. Michael, how long you've been selling on Amazon? For about three years. Three years. How did you get your start? We had someone in our office who was working in our Amazon division, who was working

with a lot of third party articles and wasn't really sure what they were doing, didn't really

dive into a lot of the research. And when we noticed some of those things were failing,

or like there was inconsistencies, we took over and I wanted to really understand Amazon from

the ground up. So joining helium 10 was like the first really big resource, and especially like the podcast, was a really big resource for us. Okay, so you were working at a company that sold products, but didn't really, I mean, like offline, I'm assuming, and then they're just like, hey, we need to get our Amazon game up, or is that how you got it? Yeah, exactly. So we had had listings because we represented brands for our other customers, excuse

me.

And from there, it was just that our sales were so low and we really couldn't get a single AISN

as it was to move over like three to five pieces in a month.

So it was really kind of difficult.

So then we wanted to try to focus on optimizing and learning what that was, learning what indexing was, like pushing our Aces up because we had really great products, but they just weren't being seen.

Awesome, awesome. So what were some of the strategies you learned and what were the results like, you know, you said you were selling most of the Acese three pieces a month.

What did you get up to after getting some of these strategies implemented?

So one of the biggest, like first strategies that we really got into was learning what keywords were indexing on the first page and learning how we could push those products up.
