Today I had my first acquaintance with so called “LAZY SELLER”, as Seth Kniep warned at one of his his videos. “Lazy sellers” are used to get themselves attaching to others’ listings and so benefit from others’ marketing efforts and expenses.
Although product was actually privately labeled with logo, at main photo it didn’t appear with logo. Reason: I didn’t have good photo-editor for that. But occasionally also today I got improved image with labeled product on it from a supplier (with which we started to collaborate more). When I was going change the image, I noticed such a situation with my product’s listing: instead of price there was “Available form these sellers”
I got angry on that, as recently I spent some more money to promote my product with Ad-campaigns. So I did the following:
- I replaced main image with the new one which had my logo on it
- Reordered the pictures so, that all the pictures with logo were appearing first
- Contacted the newly appeared seller with the letter appearing below
- Lowered the price below the new seller’s price
It didn’t take 5 minutes until the new “lazy” seller gone: went off my product’s listing 🙂
End of the story.
