What is Perfect Launch?

Speed matters in business. For Amazon global sellers, the first 90 days are especially critical to establish marketing, fulfillment, pricing and other practices to accelerate performance beyond registration. Amazon experts have designed Perfect Launch — a set of five programs (Brand Registry, A+ Content, Fulfillment by Amazon, Automated Pricing, and Advertising) — that help generate sales more quickly. Sellers taking these five steps within that critical timeframe can generate sales more quickly, as many of the most successful sellers already have.

Start by signing up for a Professional selling account. While exploring the below-mentioned services, you can also enjoy over $50,000 in New Seller Incentives.
