Amazon India Freedom Sale is commencing on 8th till 11th August & all the Amazon India sellers would definitely be excited on the prospect of another opportunity of getting huge sales. However, for a sale of such a huge potential, a seller should keep certain things in mind so that no difficulties arise during the sale. Some of the things an Amazon India seller should take care of is discussed in the following paragraphs.
- Stock up on all your Supplies
Before the start of the sale, make sure that all the required supplies & stocks are in order. Check whether you have enough stock of all the important & indispensable things you’ll require for the Freedom sale such as Packing Boxes/Polybags, Shipping Labels, A5 Papers, P-Slip Pouches, Bopp Tapes, Gift Paper, Gift Card & Gift Ribbons.
- Properly Manage Increased Order Inflow
In an Amazon India sale, you must expect significantly higher orders due to increased inflow of users on the Amazon India webpage. That’s why it is important for you to prepare for the surge in orders by adding extra pack stations (which means additional stations containing 1 Shipping Label Printer, 1 Invoice Printer, 1 Laptop & 1 Scanner each), manpower and working hours to handle the incoming volume.
- Ensure No Cancelled Orders
For a sale of such a short duration, it would be very detrimental for your business to have any order cancelled from your end. Therefore, perform thorough checks to ensure that entire available inventory is in sellable condition and removed any damaged unit from prime inventory well in advance.
- Daily Order Handover
During the Amazon Freedom Sale, order volumes would be very high across all networks and all the carriers would be working very swiftly to ensure maximum order fulfilment. Therefore, always make sure that all your order shipments are ready to be handed over to the couriers & do the same before the close of day without any delay.
- Don’t Miss the CPT Deadline
In order to avoid any delay related to your orders, start your operations on time and strictly abide by your CPT slot. Make sure to process the orders & physically packaging them as per daily routine before the completion of your CPT time & then start working on orders of next day ExSD. This would increase order efficiency & you would always have sufficient stock for order fulfilment.
- Ensure full Internet & Electricity Backup
Losing sales & ruining your user experience due to the reason of internet & electricity failure would be the most unfortunate way to mess up your Amazon sale. For making sure that such a thing never happens, always be proactive in planning for such contingencies & have full internet & electricity backup to avoid missing CPT due to internet or system related issues & risking user experience as a result.
Profit & Sales Earning Opportunities like Amazon Freedom Sale comes very few times in a year, therefore it is very crucial for an Amazon India seller to gear up & plan in advance. The above points will surely help you find success during the Freedom Sale. Happy Selling!
