  1. The coronavirus crisis situation has affected different products differently. Knowing your product and positioning it based on new reality may help prevent business slow down.
  2. Use the time at home productively by reviewing how current products are positioned and presented in Amazon and the keywords being used and how to increase “click-ability” and sales conversion.
  3. Make sure to include in the business analysis the total cost spent in advertising/total sales to determine the value added by PPCs.
  4. This is also the time to negotiate better terms with suppliers as they are also interested in maintaining the business. Knowing your numbers is very important in the negotiation with suppliers.
  5. Consider contacting warehouses to see if they can still accommodate shipping your products.
  6. Maintaining a continuous growth is crucial in showing good numbers when exiting. Focusing the business on areas that make substantial contribution to the bottom line, makes sure that your cash is not tied up on useless endeavors.
