When managing an Amazon business, staying on top of costs and identifying opportunities to save can make a significant impact on your bottom line. That’s why we’re excited to share the latest updates to sellerboard’s alert system: two powerful new notifications designed to help you save on Amazon fees and improve profitability.
1. Reduce Amazon Fees by Adjusting Product Size
Did you know that small adjustments to your packaging dimensions could lower your product’s Amazon fees? By reducing your product size, you might move it to a lower Product Size Tier, which can result in substantial savings.
With sellerboard’s new alert, you’ll be notified when there’s an opportunity to optimize your packaging dimensions for cost savings. This proactive insight allows you to make informed changes and increase your profit margins.
2. Monitor High Return Rates to Avoid Processing Fees
Returns can be costly for Amazon sellers, especially when the return rate of a product reaches Amazon’s threshold for applying Return Processing Fees. Sellerboard’s new notification helps you stay ahead of these fees by alerting you when a product’s return rate is approaching the threshold.
Armed with this knowledge, you can investigate potential causes of returns, address customer concerns, and take steps to reduce return rates before they negatively impact your profitability.
