1. Order cycle

The peak season is different from the usual season, and the stocking cycle also needs to be reconsidered. Many sellers do not pay attention to the stocking cycle. When the peak season arrives, due to insufficient preparation, it is easy to have to replenish stocks or run out of stock. In addition, the inspection of express delivery is becoming more and more strict, so many links will be invisibly lengthened. It may take three to five days to complete the delivery before, but now it may take one week or even two weeks.

In response to this situation, we need to remind ourselves to prepare the goods as far in advance as possible. This will help us deal with various emergencies, such as when the goods are about to run out and we cannot receive the goods from the supplier.

2. Ordering funds

When the peak season comes, it is easy to be attracted by profits and often stock up without thinking about the consequences. If you do this, if the sales of goods are not good in the later stage, it will cause the goods to pile up, wasting space and funds. Therefore, before the peak season arrives, sellers need to plan the quantity of stocking. They can analyze and decide the quantity of stocking based on the data of similar products in the previous peak season. Similarly, we also need to analyze which products are not suitable for stocking and can consider removing them from the shelves.

3. Delivery method

Make good arrangements for delivery methods. In addition to Amazon FBA delivery, you can also combine sea transportation, air transportation and express delivery to ensure both timeliness and low freight costs.

4. Delivery time

Ensure timely delivery and avoid delayed delivery issues.

5. Freight costs

During the peak season, the costs of some logistics channels have almost always increased, so sellers need to weigh the differences in logistics freight costs of different logistics methods and choose the logistics that suits them.

6. Average daily sales

Sellers must dynamically evaluate the average daily sales of their products, and then take this dynamically growing portion into account when preparing inventory to ensure that the inventory is sufficient.

When operating an Amazon store, merchants generally need to set a stocking time, which can be changed. If there is a problem with the setting, you can change it. From the perspective of the entire inventory, the amount of stock is very critical, and everyone must learn how to stock.
