On this week's episode of Amazon-related weekly news, we've got a bunch of information about the Q3 Amazon earnings report, as well as critical information on what you need to change with your buyer-seller messaging.

How cool is that?

Pretty cool, I think.

Hello, everyone, and welcome to another edition of the weekly news from Helium 10. I'm Alex Chikowski. And I'm Colleen Garrity. To start, Amazon had a phenomenal third quarter. And a press

release shared last week, Amazon unveiled some of its

Q3 results. Here are the five highlights we think you all should hear. First up, net sales increased

37% to 96.1 billion in Q3 2020, compared with just 70 billion in the third quarter of 2019.

Second, Amazon reported that during Prime Day, third-party sellers surpassed $3.5 billion in sales, a nearly 60% year-over-year increase.

Third, Amazon launched Prime in Turkey, bringing the total number of countries with Prime to 20.

But I feel like I'm taking up a lot of the airtime here.

Alex, can you take the fourth update?

Of course.

Another big Q3 highlight was the launch of Amazon Sweden.

Amazon.SCE will offer customers more than 150 million products to choose from,

and will give you Amazon Europe sellers

another marketplace to sell in.

Next, the first Amazon Fresh grocery stores

opened in Woodland Hills and Irvine, California.

The stores also offer new ways to make grocery shopping more convenient,

including the Amazon DashCard,

which enables customers to skip the

checkout line.
