Expert tips to save money on Amazon Prime Day Sale 2022

<ul><li>In an interview with Business Insider, Amazon India's Director &amp; Head of Prime <keyword id="4697979" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Akshay-Sahi">Akshay Sahi</keyword> said that the Amazon offices turn into war rooms with the ability to pivot if things go wrong. </li><li>Teams start working 6-9 months prior to the event and sometimes, even before that!</li><li>With July being the monsoon season in India, there’s also a special emphasis on ensuring deliveries aren’t delayed because of rains.</li></ul>Preparations of the ongoing <keyword id="4746445" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Amazon-Prime-Day-Sale">Amazon Prime Day sale</keyword> started at least nine months before the event. And what do they prepare for? A war-like situation, as during Prime Day, the Amazon office sets up war rooms. “The concept of war rooms is associated with battles, but in reality there’s a lot of planning, coordination and the ability to pivot if things go wrong,” Akshay Sahi, Head of Prime, Amazon India told Business Insider. They are also set to weather the monsoon problems. “We have built all contingencies and plan to deliver fast even if it’s raining in certain areas,” said Sahi. Then, there is the prime rush. Most new prime members join right before the <keyword id="3492906" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Prime-Day-sale">prime day sale</keyword>. The teams also spend a lot of time forecasting what kind of event it would be, how many shipments they would have to deliver, what’s the speed customers expect etc. To make it all possible, Amazon invests heavily in building the logistics infrastructure to support it. “Last year, we had 30 fulfillment centres, but now we have over 50. We have built the technology to enable more deliveries, like seller flex. Seller flex allows us to put technology in a seller’s warehouse so that it works exactly like an Amazon warehouse – we can move faster and it also allows us to add more selections,” said Sahi. The major part are the deliveries, as customers expect instant gratification which Amazon wants to provide. “We don’t do delivery just by ourselves. We partner with service providers who have built these small regional channels. First we get the right partners, train them and then also give them the right technology to ensure deliveries happen at the same speed,” said Sahi. Space partners Amazon also started the ‘I Have Space’ partner service where if those who have space can offer storage. In India, Amazon has over 20,000 IHS partners. “Before Prime Day, we are talking to our IHS partners too, we let them know that huge shipments would be coming in,” said Sahi. <keyword id="758541" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Amazon-Prime">Amazon Prime</keyword> has also flooded television and digital space with advertisements which the marketing teams have been working on for a long time. In the meanwhile, the Amazon Pay team too is working on bringing on payment strategies and offers. Sahi said marketing, merchandising, customer experiences, deal making with brands, is all a part of the Prime Day event.

<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image"></div></div></div>Amazon's 24-hour summer sale for Prime members, called Prime Day, appears to have been a major success for the online retailer. Product orders exceeded that of last year's Black Friday sale which was open to all Amazon customers (not just Prime members), reports <a href="http://e.businessinsider.com/558ef6ec2912ffb67b8b52062u0wm.1g2/VabX-8Po8LUmS3A1A8c4e" target="_blank">the company</a>. But the purpose of Prime Day wasn't so much about generating a large influx of revenue in the short term as it was about generating awareness about its members-only shopping program Prime. Shoppers were able to participate in Prime Day without a subscription by signing up for a free trial, which allowed them to experience all of the shipping perks and discounts that members experience on a daily basis.This story was originally sent to thousands of professionals in the e-commerce industry in this morning's E-COMMERCE INSIDER newsletter.

Amazon Prime Day sales beat Black Friday

<ul class="summary-list"><li><a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/amazon-prime-membership-bounces-back-us-2024-1">Amazon Prime</a> had 180 million members in March, according to new data.</li><li>That's 75% of all US shoppers, Bloomberg Businessweek reported.</li></ul>Now more than ever, you're more likely than not to be an <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/guides/tech/what-is-amazon-prime">Amazon Prime</a> member. About 180 million people had a <keyword id="2130307" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="prime-membership" source="Orion">Prime membership</keyword> as of March, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-04-16/amazon-prime-memberships-in-us-gain-8-to-new-high-after-lull">Bloomberg reported</a> on Tuesday, citing data from Consumer Intelligence Research Partners. That represents an 8% increase from 2023, according to the data. It also brings the share of US consumers who have Prime to 75%, per the report. <keyword id="18635" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="amazon" source="Orion">Amazon</keyword> did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider. Online shopping, including from Amazon, took off during the pandemic. The new numbers suggest that Prime still has growth potential, albeit at a less rapid rate. Prime fees, which cost $15 a month or $140 annually, are a key source of revenue for Amazon. Analysts surveyed by Bloomberg expect the company's subscription revenue for the first quarter will jump 12% to $10.8 billion; data are due April 30. Other retailers are trying to popularize their own membership services, which offer perks like free shipping on online orders and access to streaming services. Last month, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/target-circle-360-membership-price-unlimited-same-day-delivery-2024-3">Target said it would offer Circle 360</a>, a membership that provides unlimited same-day delivery on orders from its stores, for $49 a year. Walmart, meanwhile, has been expanding its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/walmart-pulls-promo-after-shoppers-buy-walmart-memberships-by-mistake-2023-7">Walmart+ subscription program</a> for years. Some shoppers have still managed to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/hat-learned-quit-buying-amazon-stores-community-2024-2">avoid signing up for Prime</a>. But in a sign of how engrained Amazon has become in the e-commerce world, even items bought on other websites, such as eBay, end up being shipped by Amazon.
