Shivali Patel:
How to get money from Amazon every day. There’s now 30 minute delivery and a strategy you won’t find anywhere else. This and more on this week’s episode of The Weekly Buzz. How cool is that? Pretty cool, I think. Hello, everybody, and welcome to another episode of the AM PM podcast by Helium 10. I’m your host, Shivali Patel. And this is the show that is our Helium 10 Weekly Buzz, where we give you a rundown of all the goings on in the Amazon TikTok shop and e-commerce world. We let you know what new features Helium 10 has, and we also give you a training tip of the week. So let’s get started and see what’s buzzing.
Shivali Patel:
All right. I know you’re curious. You want to know how you can get money every single day from Amazon. Well, if you have already gone ahead and migrated over to DD+7, you might have received an email that looks like this. Hello. We’ve rolled out disperse on demand to sellers who have completed their migration to the standard reserve period of seven days after delivery date, otherwise known as DD+7. And because your account now meets the eligibility requirements, you can begin using this feature to withdraw funds daily from your available balance. That’s right, guys.
Shivali Patel:
If you are eligible, you should have received an email that looks like this. And this will allow you to go ahead and request a disbursement whenever you please, up to once every 24 hours without waiting for your standard settlement cycle to complete. This is great because obviously it gives you a whole lot more control over your cashflow and faster access to your earnings. So you can pour it back in to your business, using it for whatever you please now to ensure that that disbursement request goes through smoothly. There are three different things that they ask for, which is one positive available balance. Your account has to have a positive available balance at the time of your request active disbursement instrument, meaning just a valid active bank account or some sort of instrument configured to your account.
Shivali Patel:
And if you haven’t added it guys, make sure just to go over to settings account info and deposit methods in seller central to set one up. You also are going to need a 24 hour waiting period, meaning at least 24 hours have passed since your last disbursement request. And once those three conditions have been met, voila, you are all set and anything that doesn’t meet those three requirements won’t be processed to request a disbursement. Just go over to your payments dashboard and seller central, confirm your available balance in the funds available column, and then select request payment. Otherwise you guys can again, just check your email and there’s a link you can click to get things rolling.
Shivali Patel:
Next up, we have got Amazon ads introduces dynamic TV creative for prime video. This comes directly from Amazon ads. And what is it? Well, it actually is going to be helping advertisers customize ads up until now. All of us see the same exact ads, don’t we? It’s not really curated. You don’t have things that are very personalized to you or your behavior.
Well, all that changes with prime video having dynamic TV creative because it applies Amazon’s first party signals at the creative level. And what advertisers can do is upload a single base creative asset and then personalizations automatically generated. What are the customizations?
Shivali Patel:
I know you want to know. It is going to include product imagery. It’s going to modify that creative format based on viewer familiarity with the product. You’ve got call to action changing, selecting from options such as add to cart, send to phone, save to cart, or view the brand store. The headline copy is going to change. It’s going to be adjusted messaging based on awareness versus consideration stages, as well as the product details, highlighting the information that might be most pertinent for that customer, such as ratings, prime benefits, or pricing.
Shivali Patel:
This is currently available to select US advertisers that sell on Amazon and are running campaigns on prime video across categories such as CPG, fashion, and electronics. It’ll expand out to more customers in Q3, along with broader inventory access, including live sports and prime video channels. Now, how is this relevant for, say, the regular Amazon seller like you and I? Well, this is really interesting to see, because if we’re seeing personalized interactive video ads with dynamic TV creative already with prime video, well, then maybe this will also occur at some point for regular ads. And I think it’s a great thing. It’s a great direction really in the right step, because naturally, those of us who feel spoken to when we are taking a look at something or looking to buy something, if we feel that seller really gets us that product is exactly what we’re looking for, we’re more likely to purchase it, aren’t we?
Shivali Patel:
And that is really what all of this is all about. That is enough talking for me. Let me pass it over for a brief moment to Bradley to talk to you about our new feature alerts, which is all about TikTok ads.
Bradley Sutton:
All right, guys, pretty quick new feature alert here. And it’s in a tool that I think the majority of you might not be using yet. It’s our TikTok ads tool. All right. So a lot of you guys know Helium 10 ads for Amazon, for Walmart, but we’ve had it for TikTok. Now you might be wondering, why do you even need a tool for advertising for TikTok? All you have is GMV Max ads. There’s like nothing to do. Well, you know, we’ve had new feature alerts before where you can have different triggers for when to remove a video or add a video, like maybe a video is performing well, you want to add it.
Bradley Sutton:
Maybe there’s a video that’s not performing well, bad ROAS, you want to remove it from the campaign. But now we have another one that was asked for, which is an inventory based rule. And so here is how it works. When you’re setting up this rule under the inventory rules, you have criteria here and you can say, hey, I want either if a single product inventory or total inventory of all products in a campaign, I can say, hey, if it ever dips to like less than 50, then remove that product from the campaign. There’ll be another feature here where you can pause the campaign. Now, why would you want to do this?
Bradley Sutton:
Well, obviously, you don’t want to send traffic, spend money to go to videos that are tying to a campaign that has ties to a product, has low inventory. So instead of having to manually turn things off or manually remove certain products from the campaign, now you are going to be able to do that with this automation here. Conversely, like let’s say the product gets in the stock. Well, you can add another criteria here where you can say, hey, you know what? If inventory gets to more than 50, go ahead and re-add the product to the campaign. So it kind of goes both ways.
Bradley Sutton:
So guys, those of you who are running TikTok shop ads, let us know what would be helpful for us to put as an automation in Helium 10 ads. And for those of you who aren’t using this yet, you might want to take a look at it, see if it’s something that could help you save some time and money. Back to you, Shivali.
Shivali Patel:
How cool is that? Pretty cool, I think, right? Fourth up, we’ve got Amazon rolls out Amazon Now to dozens of cities across the US providing 30 minute delivery to millions of customers. You guys, this rollout is going to affect dozens of cities, millions of customers across the US. Some of those cities include Atlanta, Dallas, Fort Worth, Philadelphia, Seattle, and it’s rapidly expanding to include Austin, Houston, Minneapolis, Orlando, Phoenix, Denver, and Oklahoma City. This is for those thousands of fresh groceries that you can think of, everyday household essentials, and locally relevant items in about 30 minutes or less.
Shivali Patel:
For the Amazon seller who is selling things like laundry detergent or toothpaste, this can mean that your products will now be delivered right to the door of your customer ultra fast. This is the convenience of what Amazon is all about. And perhaps your products qualify, meaning you might see your sales pick up because even more of those folks who are used to shopping brick and mortar, like going out to their local grocery store to get products, they’re now able to get the same experience maybe even faster and with more ease inside of Amazon.
Shivali Patel:
So if we see a hike in the amount of people that are using it to now get their groceries delivered because it is ultra fast, you will naturally also see that hopefully in all the other categories, making it therefore relevant to my Amazon sellers, even if you have products that this doesn’t qualify for. That is the dream, isn’t it? What else is the dream? Perhaps using strategies that most other sellers might not even be utilizing. And to help me share a strategy just like that, I’m going to bring up Carrie Miller. You all know her. We love her. She’s going to showcase to you something that is very exclusive to Helium 10 that no other tool is doing.
Carrie Miller:
Let’s go back to Cerebro to break this down. So first Cerebro shows you all keyword rankings, not just the top few pages. So when you search for a product on Amazon, only seven pages of search results actually show up, even though many more products are actually indexed. And that means there are around 306 organic positions and approximately 110 sponsored positions. Now here’s what sets Helium 10 apart. Cerebro is the only reverse ASIN tool that shows you all seven pages.
Carrie Miller:
Every single ranking keyword is visible. Now, other tools, they might only show you page one, maybe page two, or at best part of page three, but Helium 10 captures everything. Now, why is this important? Well, Amazon has something called search shuffle and a product might be on page one or two today, but then randomly dropped to pages three, four or five or six, or even seven, a few days later. If you’re using a tool that only checks pages one and two and only updates once a week, you’re going to miss out on a lot of valuable keyword insights. So with Helium 10, that doesn’t happen.
Carrie Miller:
If a keyword drops from page one or two, we still track it. So you don’t lose sight of it. You get a complete picture of where a product ranking is both organically and in the sponsored placement, but that’s not all. Cerebro also tracks where a product is running sponsored ads, sponsor brand video ads, and other widgets like Amazon’s choice, not just the badge, but the actual widget with that highlights, you know, sponsored and trending products. When you analyze a product in Cerebro, you’re seeing all 306 organic keyword rankings, all 110 sponsored keyword placements where the product is appearing in video ads, header ads, and Amazon’s widgets. No other data tool does this.
Carrie Miller:
So what does this mean for you? Well, some people ask, why does Cerebro show so many keywords and aren’t some of them irrelevant? Well, here’s the thing. Cerebro isn’t just a relevancy tool. Yes, it has the only relevancy tool directly connected to Amazon, but its main job is to give you the complete picture of where a product ranks across all 306 organic and 110 sponsored positions. So let’s say you want to run a video ad. You can use Cerebro to find all the keywords where competitors are running video ads and then target those exact keywords. Or if you notice a competitor isn’t using sponsored brand headline ads for certain keywords, you can reverse engineer their strategy and take advantage of all those opportunities. The bottom line is that Cerebro is the only tool that tracks all pages of Amazon search, all ad placements, and all ranking positions, giving you a deeper insight to make smarter decisions.
Shivali Patel:
And last up, we’ve got this news bit from Channel News Asia. Amazon Singapore is closing down its marketplace working with third-party sellers. This is actually tucked into this article right here. Perhaps if you are not selling in Singapore or you are not one of our viewers who has been planning to expand there, this might not be the most relevant news for you. But just be mindful, if you are somebody who is selling on Amazon Singapore, there are plenty of other marketplaces that you can still consider and prosper with. Now before I close out here, I just want to cover the Helium 10 Elite Listing Optimization and Creative Masterclass that is coming up on May 18th.
Shivali Patel:
Guys, we are five days away. So if you are anywhere near our Helium 10 headquarters, Irvine, California, please come out. Or if you are somebody who understands return on investment and is willing to make an investment to come out, see Bradley, Carrie, and I in person at the headquarters and learn from some experts who are going to be sharing with you things they’ve learned after going through tons of data.
Shivali Patel:
Okay, literal spending time, effort, money, listings, just all that process and boiling it down to the things that you ought to know as an Amazon, TikTok, or Walmart seller. So make sure that you guys come out. There is no other place like this. This information is going to be highly exclusive to the folks that are in that room. You will learn how to leverage AI to plan your listing creative. Find keywords your competitors don’t have access to.
Shivali Patel:
