History of Seller Sessions
Augustas is with Danny reliving the journey and History of Seller Sessions, where it came from, the medium and channels it has evolved through and how over the three years it has grown to over 200 episodes open and available to the Amazon Seller community.
Building it out
- Started Jan 2017 with Danny and Richard Morgan
- We were doing two webinars a month and worked fine but then we had technical problems
- These issues stopped the flow with the audience
- We stopped doing those after a really poor show and we worried it was affecting the audience
- So we moved to the YouTube platform and did a weekly video
- Later in the year we launched the blog and wrote up the shownotes from the previous shows
- Ran that for a while and built the SEO traffic and got more engagement
- It was the podcast that really helped it take off and we had 13 months of double digit growth
Testing our Channels
- Sometimes you have to test channels and many would have stopped after the technical issues, or the youtube videos
- The History of Seller Sessions is similar to your Amazon business in that you seek different channels and areas where people are buying your product and you double-down on that
- We started Nov 2017 and spent 9 months working out the channel and finding our medium
- We found we can do more content in the audio than the work in YouTube and video render
One Day Conference – June 1st 2019 London
- One day conference in London
- Very much focussed around structured learning
- In a prestigious keynote theatre with a learning curriculum
- People are able to take notes and have a tiered workspace environment to capture notes and learning
- There will be all the networking as well and break times for chatting
- Focused on marketing on and off Amazon
- Great addition to the History of Seller Sessions
