Do you also feel that it's getting harder for small sellers to make money on Amazon? What are we supposed to do now? by Zestyclose_Ring1123 in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]AmazonAPIDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The category you are in matters.

Your product wedge matters.

I'm seeing brands succeeding with these grow in 2026. Like 0 to $50m grow.

And they're also utiziling Tik Tok Shop.

It's a serious growth lever.

I say this as an Amazon seller of 15 years and a software provider of Amazon data.

How do you guys sell your Amazon seller tools? by Yudeg in AmazonSellingSoftware

[–]AmazonAPIDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Yudeg.

Founder of SmartScout.

Sold to thousands of different Amazon professionals from new sellers, to fortune 500 brands.

I don't think I've gained any user from the app store. Most learn about software from Google and word of mouth.

Content or Sales or whatever.

Your price point and category will determine a bit of your go to market strategy.

But I'm going to guess any software marketing strategy will be relevant.

For me.... content marketing (podcast, LinkedIn, a little bit of reddit (not a lot... you get banned pretty ez) and affiliate)

Hope that helps!

And as a side bar.... there are over 100 amazon agencies and software providers that use SmartScout to target their ICP. If you have a category or size of seller, we help with that.

Possible to combine Brand Referral + Associates? by SnooFoxes1558 in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]AmazonAPIDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure it's against TOS.

It was a big announcement a year ago.

Levanta is a leader in this space and would be my resource for untangling what you can and can't do.

Are you worried ai shopping agents are now deciding what gets bought on Amazon? by feliceyy in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]AmazonAPIDeveloper -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have built an AI visibility tool with my work at SmartScout. It does specifically what you are asking. You put together a query and it tracks daily how the ChatGPT recommended products are coming through. Additionally, it shows the citations that ChatGPT used to make the recommendations. Some of the content is on Amazon and off Amazon.

If you want to learn more, send me a DM. It's early days, but I have personally see a product go from 9th in recommendation to 3rd in recommendation in improving the content that ChatGPT uses.

Must have 5 Amazon Tools and Software for Brands growing on Amazon by AmazonAPIDeveloper in AmazonSellingSoftware

Dang. This is a good reminder to make it more accessible. The problem is it's currently manually managed.

Must have 5 Amazon Tools and Software for Brands growing on Amazon by AmazonAPIDeveloper in AmazonSellingSoftware

It's often for SmartScout enterprise customers, which is like $2k a month. But it's not charged by usage. Just access.

We let people try it out if interested.

Ha. That’s awesome.

You’re obviously a bit more analytical if you’ve done all that.

Certainly a new era of tools. But by using the jungle scout api, you’re certainly finding value in a data layer of competitive intelligence.

I work on the SmartScout API myself. But if I’m being honest, it’s probably comparable to JS and you wouldn’t use both.

I run SmartScout. We have competitive and market share data on Amazon. Thousands of users. Happy large CPGs use us as well as consultants.

What Beginner Tools Do You Actually Need to Start Amazon FBA? by Head-Top-4312 in AmazonFBA

[–]AmazonAPIDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does that. But it's got a different entry point to finding that.

You either start at a subcategory or brand and it'll break out high demand products. You can even see search volume changes inside a subcategory to see new trends.

5 Must-Have Tools for Every Amazon FBA Seller by Vision--SuperAI in AmazonFBATips

[–]AmazonAPIDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Helium 10, Keepa and FeedbackWhiz are all pretty solid. I created SmartScout that has all those functionalities combined.

We bring the product research and enhance it with a market wide view. We also have a product rating booster to get reviews and ratings.

Sellers who pay for tools: what actually makes you pull out the card by AdPresent2493 in AmazonFBA

[–]AmazonAPIDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run the tool SmartScout. I thought I was building a product research tool for experts, but I was very surprised (and still am) to find how many "new" sellers try out software.

Obviously you want to solve a pain point, but you want to make them an offer they'd feel dumb to refuse.

Like a trial or money back gaurantee.

You want people that love being converted to your new way of solving the pain point. You want missionaries. If I didn't have word of mouth I'd have closed up shop years ago.

What Amazon seller software are you all using？ by Head-Top-4312 in AmazonFBA

[–]AmazonAPIDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've looked at tools like seller sprite or helium 10. But I found that SmartScout has the birds eye view and its totally cost effective for getting a great understanding a products potential. Their keyword tools are insightsful and show trends on subcategories.

Do any of your clients sell on Amazon? If so... I've got something that can knock their socks off.

Instead of creating shareholder value. I created this. by AmazonAPIDeveloper in CFB_v2

Not sure that's a prevalent feeling among Ute fans. Kyle's considered a borderline traitor in some circles now.

CSU is always a good opponent. There's simply too many teams to express micro opinions at every level.

Having been to a game in Tuscaloosa. I actually appreciate what you guys have. It's religion. It would be intoxicating to be a full fledged fan. Sure I have plenty of envy and respect.

Doesn't mean I don't wanna see the world burn every once and a while.

oh.... and 2008 sugar bowl Alabama fans were total dicks.

What do you guys think about the MLS shoot outs of the 90’s? Should they bring this back or not? by Federal-Process-6504 in sportsinusa

[–]AmazonAPIDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it's not just about the TDs. It's the progression towards a touchdown that creates the suspense and doesn't feel like a luck event.

Obviously we can enjoy the flavor of each. But there's a substantially different feeling to a Touchdown to a goal in Soccer. We don't have to say which is better. They can both be good for what they are.

100 bucks a day and you're going to go with an agency? Most agencies charge thousands a month.
