The Amazon Marketplace has changed, and it's never going back to the way things were.
Revenue is up.
New sellers are down.
And most of the money is flowing to fewer, bigger players.
We dug into the data, the shifts, and the uncomfortable truth about what it actually takes to win on Amazon now.
🎥 The video is live now.
I'm a top 10 seller and run an Amazon data company. I'm telling you that you don't want to miss this if you're in the Amazon space.

I became a TikTok Shop creator for a month to understand how brands really work.
Not how they talk. How they operate.
I got hundreds of brand messages.
Same compliments. Same “love your content, request a free sample to work with us”
No originality.
Then one brand did something different.
They didn’t pitch me.
They sent me raw, genuine information a creator wants to hear:
→ Founder intro message
→ What top creators were earning
→ Which content formats were converting
→ Which incentives and bonuses they had
I instantly understood the opportunity.
Creators don’t move on compliments.They move on clarity with campaigns.
When you show real numbers, you build trust.
When you show real winners, you create belief.
That message didn’t make me feel special.
It made me feel informed.
And that’s what made me care.
The lesson for brands is simple:
→ Proof beats potential
→ Transparency beats persuasion
If you want creators to lean in, don’t sell the dream.
Show them what success already looks like.
That’s what stopped my scroll.

I haven't shared much about myself in a while so thought I would real quick!
My name is Kip! I am in Northwest Arkansas and just became a parent last year! My son will be one year old next month and man has it been a crazy year.
For the past 4 years I have sold on Amazon scaling a resell/wholesale business to $1.7m in 2024. Last year, our Amz account was suspended for 180 days, putting my personal cashflow and capital at risk. I had to make something happen, so I jumped into selling on Whatnot in February (yes, right when my son was born lol bad idea).
The rest of 2025 was a whirlwind, grinding late night streams, hiring streamers, making bad inventory purchases, good inventory purchases, paying too much in warehouse rent, moving to a better warehouse, pivoting from kitchen appliances to women's apparel, etc etc.
I can genuinely say, I have learned something every single day last year - whether it be about parenthood or running a business. It was really hard, but fast forward to today, we are about to hit 37k followers on WN, with over $350k sold last year.
There has been lots of excitement about Whatnot in the reselling community and in the DTC space. And I can confirm, it is really exciting. BUT! it is very hard and takes a lot of effort to grow your channel. Live selling is projected to become a $2trillion industry in the 2030s, and getting in early will pay dividends down the line. Whether it is Whatnot, or another platform - I want to position my business as the go-to liquidation option for brands if they want their product in live selling channels.
I joined @ShannonJean $5 Reseller Mastermind last year because he helped me open a Macy's liquidation account by sharing the email of his Macy's contact (really nice of him).
It has been a great opportunity to meet a lot of other entrepreneurs making full time or side gig money reselling stuff on various channels.
If anyone is interested in reselling - join the Mastermind.
If anyone is interested in Liveselling - send me a DM (and drop a follow pls🙏)
I am excited for 2026 and the future of liveselling, I plan to be on the forefront of it.

🚨This is the LinkedIn post I’m considering posting to get some attention on the recent Amazon restrictions.
Would need the entire Amazon community to get behind this to really make some noise. Even if you weren’t affected this time we can all agree what they did wasn’t fair and can happen to anyone if things don’t change.
This is what I have for now. If there’s anything you think I should change please let me know:
This past week, I and countless other 7 and 8-figure Amazon business owners were blindsided by a massive and sudden shift: restrictions on selling some of the top brands we’ve built our businesses around for years.
We received a notice that we had less than 24 hours to sell through inventory—a timeline that’s not only unrealistic but also devastating. Personally, I’m sitting on multiple six-figures worth of inventory that’s now restricted. And I’m not alone. I know many sellers who are holding millions of dollars in inventory they’ve worked tirelessly to procure
and manage responsibly.
What makes this situation even more frustrating is the timing. These changes came right before the busiest time of the year when sellers like us rely on holiday sales to support our teams, pay suppliers, and invest back into our businesses.
The 3rd party seller community has been instrumental to Amazon’s growth and success. We’ve taken on the risks, the investments, and the long hours to provide customers with fast, reliable access to products they love. To face such sweeping changes with almost no notice feels unfair and disheartening.
This isn’t just about money—it’s about trust and partnership. I’m calling on Amazon to remember the sellers who have helped build its ecosystem and to communicate changes like these with transparency and fairness.
Do better.
