While our Facebook group gets more traffic, we want to grow the forum community too! It’s a great place to ask questions and join discussions about e-commerce, Amazon strategies, and more. Remember, it’s not for Helium 10 customer support—that's available 24/7 through our website. To participate, sign in to your Helium 10 account and head to forum.helium10.com.Helium 10 has rolled out several powerful new features this week, starting with the brand-new Tariff Analyzer tool in Profits. This feature gives sellers a detailed breakdown of how tariffs impact their net profits on a product-by-product basis. By inputting the country of origin and cost of goods sold (COGS), users can instantly see pre- and post-tariff profit margins, estimate the price adjustments needed to maintain margins, and even compare how switching manufacturing to another country, like Vietnam or Uzbekistan, might improve profitability. It's a game-changing tool for sellers looking to stay agile amid rising import costs.Another major upgrade is the expansion of Managed Refund Services, now available to both Platinum and Diamond users. Previously reserved for Diamond subscribers, this service helps Amazon sellers recover funds owed by Amazon due to lost, damaged, or mishandled inventory. Helium 10’s team handles the tedious claims process, scanning accounts, filing cases, and staying compliant with Amazon’s policies. Sellers only pay a small percentage of successfully recovered funds, making it a zero-risk way to reclaim potentially thousands in lost revenue. On top of that, Helium 10 has added support for Cerebro and Magnet in the Amazon Saudi Arabia marketplace, with built-in translation tools to help sellers understand foreign-language keywords and rank data, opening up new international expansion opportunities easily. Tune in for a wealth of knowledge and strategies to keep your Amazon business thriving.

What if a slight tweak could skyrocket your Amazon sales? Join us as we unpack the transformative potential of Amazon's Search Query Performance data with our special guest, Destaney Wishon of BTRmedia. Together, we shed light on the often-overlooked metrics like conversion and click-through rates (CTR) that can dramatically boost revenue when optimized. Picture this: a mere 4% increase in conversion rate translates into an additional $1,200 in sales for a $30 product. These insights are as vital as traditional PPC, keyword research, and AI advancements in scaling your Amazon-selling success.
Ever wondered how powerful your product images can be in driving sales? We dissect a fascinating case study on a hemp pain cream to reveal how various images impact click rates. By leveraging tools like Helium 10 Audience, powered by PickFu, we gather audience feedback and discuss the importance of regularly updating images to cater to the preferences of specific customer segments. The results highlight the critical role of understanding your target audience and tailoring product presentations to meet their needs for improved market performance.
Unlock the secrets of optimizing your product's visibility with search query analysis, even if you don’t have access to advanced tools like Helium 10’s Search Query Analyzer tool. We guide you through using Amazon's Seller Central to access valuable sales data and discuss strategic optimization of keywords and conversion rates. A real-life example illustrates how focusing on specific keywords, such as "CBD roll on," and boosting ad placements can increase sales. By understanding the relationship between organic rankings and ads, you can make informed decisions that enhance your product's profitability.
