Description

Hi everyone! Doone here - your host and hype girl. Thank you for tuning in to my solo episode this week.

Today, I’m bringing you another workshop inspired special, brought to you through the Hype Club coffee chats. If you listen regularly you’ve heard me chatting about our Wednesday virtual coffee chats in Hype Club before and this is such a great hour of the week. It’s a chance for all the founders to catch up with each other up on their busy weeks, and an intimate place to hype and support one another. We have such an awesome group of like-minded founders early on in their journey right now, and these Wednesdays have really become a highlight of my week. This is even more so the case when we have a special guest popping in to teach us a workshop in their area of expertise. 

With a couple of the founders in our group looking to launch into Amazon in the near future, we invited Carina McLeod to come and teach us the initial steps to getting the hang of this tricky channel. Carina is a real expert in the space, with 20 years retail and 18 years of Amazon experience behind her. She now runs an Amazon focused agency called Ecommerce Nurse ran by a team of ex Amazonians, helping sellers and vendors grow and reach their potential on Amazon in North America and Europe. In other words, the perfect woman for the job. During our session, she broke down the seven key steps you absolutely must take into consideration if you’re to succeed on Amazon. And because I know how useful that was to all of the women in the club, I’m excited to share the general roadmap with you here today. 

You’ll have to tune into the episode to catch all the good bits here, but let me give you a little sneakpeek into the last step you’ve got to keep in check for Amazon success. It’s to realise your listing isn’t something that you just set up and leave to fend for itself. A set-up and leave it strategy just doesn’t work on this platform. You need to nurture it on the daily. It’s all about momentum and relevance with Amazon. What was a strategy yesterday might not be a strategy today, and you should be consistently working to optimise your listing and AB test your strategies. So, get yourself nice and familiar with the platform, because you’re in this for the long-run.

Ok that’s all for today! Thank you so much for listening in. Success for Amazon is absolutely possible for everyone, and I hope this episode allows you to focus your attention on all the right areas for that initial launch. If you want to get the extended version of what I’m talking about, you can sign up to Hype Club and watch the replays of all our past workshops, including this one with Carina from Ecommerce Nurse. 

So let’s get into it, here are seven key steps to success on Amazon.

Want access to the best knowledge, tips, tactics, and strategies from the world's most exciting (and successful) entrepreneurs - who happen to be women? Read on... We started the Female Startup Club podcast to bring you insights and learnings from the world’s most successful female founders, entrepreneurs, and women in business. This is a space for women-in-progress to learn through insightful episodes, be inspired, and take action to get what you want out of your startup.We’re on a mission to help women build impactful eCommerce and direct-to-consumer businesses through inspirational and practical content. More than a podcast, Female Startup Club is an educational platform that provides insightful podcasts and technical business courses. The startup series has grown into one of the top 0.5% of podcasts listened to globally and became a top 10 podcast for Entrepreneurship in the US that impacts thousands of small business owners every day. Inspiration for the podcast came from reading Tools of Titans by Tim Ferriss and loving the way men share so directly, that no BS approach. We wanted to hear that same business perspective from women. No fluff. (Btw, the book is awesome but it lacks the female perspective). Enter Female Startup Club. What started as quick video interviews with women chatting about their CPG and DTC businesses on social media turned into a thriving startup podcast. Now just over a year in we’ve done 330+ episodes with some of the world’s most exciting female entrepreneurs who share their direct insights, learnings, eCommerce tactics, and strategies in business to help other founders who are trying to figure startup life out and navigate the entrepreneurial path. We’re totally bias, but it’s really cool. Even though it’s an interview-style show, it’s really just two women having a girlfriend-to-girlfriend chat about how she’s built her business. It’s like meeting an interesting founder at a party, being genuinely curious about what they’re doing, and excited to understand the why and how of their entrepreneurial journey. We like to think of Female Startup Club as your Hype Girl. We show that it’s possible and give you the motivation, tools, and resources you need to keep going in business.Today, we have the luxury of talking to some of the most inspiring women in the female entrepreneurial space three times a week through the Female Startup Club podcast. From Blueland’s Sarah Paiji Yoo-, to Rowena Bird from LUSH Cosmetics and further big names such as Gretta van Riel, Sandy Lin, Mimi Ikonn, and Nadya Okamoto. When you zoom out to the big picture, there are clear patterns among the startup growth paths and tactics of these various women, despite coming from vastly different stories and businesses. All these founder conversations have led to a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the realities of starting an eCommerce business in today’s climate. We’ve been told over and over again by these women that they’re happy to share their startup journeys so deeply because they wish there had been a platform like this when they were starting out. If we can show other women-in-progress that anyone can do it,- and that we all start from the same place (an idea!), we can empower women to dream big and think bigger.But above all, at Female Startup Club we truly believe the opportunities arising from knowledge sharing in the female entrepreneurial community to be limitless. Something we strive to do every day is to create a network of powerful women who want to learn and share, to collect learnings, insights, and strategies, and create useful-, valuable content relevant to the DTC, CPG, eCommerce space. ⁣Hold each other up, share our ideas with our community, and expand your businesses and minds. For this, we are extremely proud to be official supporters of the Malala Fund, donating a portion of our sales to the non-profit working for a world where every girl can learn and lead.
