Meta and eBay are beefing??? Here’s what’s up…

Ahead of its Amazon Business Reshape conference in October, Amazon is pushing third-party sellers to court business buyers, a channel that hit $35 billion in annualized gross sales by 2025.

Its new pallet-delivery option is the hook: in Amazon's pilot, FBA pallet orders drove 16 times more revenue per order than non-pallet orders. If you sell anything businesses restock in bulk, this may be your highest-leverage untapped channel.

Meta launched a standalone iOS app called Seller on July 24, built for Facebook Marketplace power sellers, with Meta AI that turns a single photo into a title, description, price, and category, plus a unified inbox and performance insights.

More than 3.5 million listings are posted on Marketplace every day in the US and Canada, and Meta is clearly professionalizing that base, so much that eBay shares fell 3.7% Friday morning as investors reacted to the launch.

The sneakiest rate change of the year isn't the flat $0.10 bump that hit July 25, it's the July 12 structural change: for Ground Advantage packages under 1 lb, rural, offshore, and non-contiguous destinations are hit hardest, with rural sub-pound packages (1–11.99 oz) now billed at the 12–12.99 oz rate.

Translation: your featherweight items now cost the same as a package four times heavier to a big slice of the country, so reprice light SKUs and right-size packaging before Q4 reconciliation catches it.

⭐️I Analyzed 500+ Amazon Products That Make $1M+. All Passed This Test: Steve shares a 10-question scorecard to kill a bad product idea in under 10 minutes, built from patterns he saw across 6,000+ students.

The questions pressure-test the fundamentals: gross margins (a 60% margin on Shopify can drop to 25-30% on Amazon after FBA fees, up another 6% in 2026), trend vs. fad demand, repeat-purchase potential, whether the value demos in 15 seconds (key for TikTok Shop, on track for $112B GMV this year), category depth, budget discipline, niche specificity, existing audience access, ad eligibility, and margin left for ads after every cost.

⭐️Give Me 4 Minutes. This is How I Created a $1,300,000 Amazon FBA Brand: Travis breaks down his niche branding playbook: Amazon is a search engine, so use Helium 10 to find high-search, low-competition terms (he found ~2,000 monthly searches for "carnivore electrolytes" with no sellers) and niche a big concept down.

His five steps: find the term, source on Alibaba/Thomasnet, build a premium listing via FBA Creatives, then launch hard to snowball up the rankings from day one.

⭐️ Amazon Sellers Are Losing Rankings Over This Title Change: Brandon breaks down Amazon's title change (75-character titles max, plus a new Item Highlights field capped at 125 characters) and how 8-figure sellers should adapt. His key read on the mechanics: use the main title for keyword ranking juice covering the primary ways people search, and expect the subtitle to be read by AI for audience, pain points, and use cases, so it needs secondary keywords but not stuffing.

The playbook: strip fluff from your main title down to 75 characters, push those keywords into the subtitle and bullets, and do it iteratively now while tracking daily organic rank so you can revert fast if you get de-indexed. His upside angle: unprepared competitors will get auto-replaced AI titles and drop in rank, so sellers who move early can steal share.
