Key Terms You Need to Know When You Start Out as A Seller

FBA: Yes? No?
  1. Seller Rating
    Most sites like amazon will grant you a seller rating once you sign on as a seller. Seller rating is the number one way your customer will figure out whether you are a reliable seller or not. If you have a high amount of positive feedback, your seller rating will be high. Which in turn means that more people will see your products, because the algorithm at amazon will promote sellers with higher ratings. Ratings are provided to sellers based on a number of parameters, which includes things such as feedback from customers, response time with regards to complaints, shipping time that you take, among a few things that might be considered. Obviously, you can appeal against hits on your seller rating, but you might want to be careful using that. If found guilty, you will be penalized further.
  2.  Fulfillment by Amazon
    Honestly, packaging and shipping is difficult. Not only is there a ton of paper work involved in this process, but there are high chances of you messing up when you are doing everything. Here is where Fulfilment by Amazon(FBA) comes in. All that you really need to do is send your inventory to a FBA centre, and they store, pack and send parcels on your behalf as the sales come in. The best part about all this is that Amazon charges you on a pay-per-use model, meaning there isn’t a minimum requirement for the quantity of product you produce, instead, you just have to pay Amazon a commission every time you make a sale.
  3.       Feedback
    Feedback is the most vital step in the online business. This is where customers leave you feedback on the quality of the items that you are selling to them. Feedback is also a way of talking to your future buyers and aiding them with any queries that they might have.

When a buyer receives an Amazon package, he can see quite easily (sometimes it is printed on the same box, sometimes it is on the packaging tape with which they have closed) a message that invites you to rate the package in which the product has been shipped to you. The company is one of the most concerned about how to design their packaging and how they work when the consumer receives it at home. And whoever has ever received a package from this online store already knows that they are very easy to open and that with many times simply pulling a tab the thing will already be done. Amazon is also one of the recurring examples used when discussing the importance of packaging in e-commerce and how the form in which products are shipped can completely change the way in which the company is perceived. One of the general mistakes made by e-commerce firms is to think that their work, the main job that the consumer will take into account when evaluating their work, ends at in moment i...

Can you survive and sell on the internet without being the cheapest?

In the offline world, there are many types of stores and not all bet on the same criteria to try to reach the consumer. Not everyone wants to have a low cost supermarket or a discount store in which the main offer are products at low prices. So why is there a certain belief that when selling online you have to sell at a low price? Is e-commerce marked by offers to the point that it is only successful if it is sold cheap? For years, what most worked on the net were the offers. Consumers made the network their main ally when they were looking for things at lower prices. The trips started to be bought online because the internet was able to find the lowest prices, last minute offers of hotels or the cheapest fares of the low cost airlines. Then came the coupon pages or online outlets, which were the entry point for many consumers for e-commerce. And then many large e-commerce companies that invoice millions have made offer low prices a decisive element of their corporate image an...
