The negotiation playbook of most #Amazon vendors is outdated. The result?
❌ Cost increases lead to delistings (CRAP)
❌ Vendor negotiations lead to Buy Box suppressions
❌ Proven GTM strategies lead to a decline in Net PPM
❌ Strict investment boundaries lead to low ROI
❌ Short-sighted selection strategies lead to price erosion
Complex trade negotiations require vendors to upgrade their Amazon know-how by:
✅ Adopting the right selection strategy
✅ Knowing the exact ROI of trade terms
✅ Understanding the negotiation phases
✅ Effectively handling escalation situations
✅ Increasing cost prices without jeopardising sales
✅ Positioning and utilising their commercial leverage
