Takeaways:
Having a clear understanding of your true costs is important.A good sense of forecasting can help you save on storage costs.The best way to sell your excess FBA stock is to reduce prices and offer promotions rather than bring it back.Take your time when changing prices and do it gradually.There is a $150 fee to run a lightning deal and you cannot choose the time when it takes place (Amazon assigns a 12-hour window).It is imperative that you find people who love your product and win them over.Quote of the Show: Running a coupon is generally better than not running a coupon in terms of conversion rates. The optics will be good and people will be incentivized to make a purchase. However, from the data we have seen, there is not a huge difference between running a 5% off and 10% off.
