Amazon Tools
This is a collection of tools and websites that make your life as an Amazon seller easier. I use the following tools and resources in my business when selling on Amazon and to my retailers.
I mention these in the books and blogs but to make it easier for you I am listing them here for your reference. Some of these can come in quite in handy when you need a quick info or a simple job done fast. Disclaimer: some of the links are affiliate links and at no additional cost to you, I will earn a small commission if you decide to make a purchase.
I have personally used and tested all of these products or companies, and I recommend them because they are helpful and useful, not because of the small commissions I make if you decide to buy something.
The cost to you remains the same, sometimes even cheaper if I have negotiated a special deal for my readers. Please do not purchase these products unless you feel you need them or that they will help you achieve your goals.

What this tool does (there’s a free version also) is look up all orders that are associated with the negative (or positive review).
So you just install the plugin, go to your reviews, click on lioncow and it fetches the order.
You click on the order and it takes you to seller central where you can conveniently message the customer to offer a refund, apologize or do anything to turn the experience of the customer into a positive one.
This tool is amazing and what we’ve been waiting for! I’ve already purchased my pro version and made a little video for you to show you how it works. I’ve even negotiated a discount for all my readers. If you want to purchase the PRO version use discount code: “ImportDojo” – you’ll get 18$ off.
