One of the biggest hurdles for Amazon Vendors is managing cost price increases and getting Amazon to agree to these adjustments. In these tough situations, it's crucial not to lose sight of areas where you can reduce costs, such as manufacturing and shipping. Focus on what you can control and remember that persistence is key. While negotiating with Amazon, don't overlook the small changes you can make internally to improve your bottom line. By optimising other aspects of your operations, it will help maintain profitability and support the growth of your business.

I was a bit surprised this week when I went through the D/FW airport and passed a ToysRUs. Yeah, for real... "I’m a ToysRUs kid!.” If you're over 40, chances are you can still hum the jingle and recall the tagline by heart. Remember the excitement of Saturday morning cartoons? Not just for the shows, but for the commercials too, showcasing the latest toys we all dreamed of. Stepping into a ToysRUs was like entering a wonderland. There's something magical about physically browsing through a store, eyeing all the toys and wishing you could have them all. For us adults, maybe that excitement now translates to perusing the latest tech at Best Buy – but that's another story. This encounter reminded me of the power of great marketing and business storytelling. ToysRUs wasn't just a store; it was a canvas for children's imagination, offering a world of toys and endless stories. So, what's your story today? What does it tell about you or your business? The power of a simple, compelling narrative can be transformative." #NostalgiaMarketing #ToysRUs #StorytellingInBusiness #MarketingMemories #BusinessStrategy

Hasbro (NASDAQ: HAS) is expected to face another challenging year in 2024 as it contends with a smaller entertainment segment and weak demand for its consumer products. According to Visible Alpha consensus, Hasbro’s net revenue is projected to decline by -17% year-over-year in 2024, dropping to $4.2 billion. While the company has been working on a turnaround strategy, analysts expect net revenue to remain well below the peak of $6.4 billion seen in 2021. https://lnkd.in/dQksUx8N #FinancialAnalysis #InvestmentResearch #VisibleAlphaInsights
