At the end of the year, many vendor negotiations with Amazon are
on the agenda – and these are truly no walk in the park! Because
Amazon, of course, has its own interests in mind – not those of
the brands. But if you go into the talks well prepared, you have
a better chance. Martin Heubel – formerly a vendor manager at
Amazon himself and now an independent Amazon consultant –
explains in this podcast episode with Valerie what is important
in the negotiations.
For example, he reveals who should and should not participate in
the talks and when, which key figures should underlie the talks
and where they can be obtained. He describes the approach and
tricks of vendor managers and reveals specific methods that can
be used to ountert hem.
Newsflash:
- Shein grew by 68 percent in Europe in 2023,
with sales of 7.86 billion euros.
- Amazon is starting its Black Week earlier
than usual on November 21.
- Amazon has adjusted its requirements and
deadlines for products with the Prime logo for the Christmas
season.

Note from the sponsor Taxdoo:
On November 1, the Amazon VAT-compliant service provider Avalara
terminated its contractual relationship with around 30,000
European Amazon sellers. Those affected by this must act
immediately: otherwise, they will certainly fall behind with
their November returns in countries such as Spain, France, Italy
and Poland. So it's time to choose a new provider, for example
the tax tech expert Taxdoo. The good news is that with an
existing ID, the change can actually be made within a few weeks,
and returns for November can still be made. Taxdoo offers a
comprehensive platform for online merchants who have to carry out
legally compliant and efficient Value Added Taxreporting and
accounting - including for marketplaces such as Amazon, eBay or
Zalando. More at Taxdoo or via Jonny Hofberger.
