CommerceIQ Extends a Helping Hand to Brands Struggling with COVID-19 Demand Shocks With $1M in Ecommerce Services

On the heels of its first quarter earnings, Amazon reported that its online sales soared 24%— the fastest pace in four years. First-party sales increased at more than twice the rate of Q1 2019, and all of this growth occurred despite only part of the quarter being affected by the coronavirus pandemic.

For brands that sell on Amazon, this record increase leads to many questions. How long will the demand shocks caused by the coronavirus disrupt my sales on Amazon? How much money am I losing because of out-of-stock (OOS) products? Am I wasting advertising and promotional spend on OOS and low-inventory products? How can I plan for long-term growth?

CommerceIQ Growth Navigator is a 90-day fully managed service that immediately helps you manage unprecedented demand spikes occurring today because of the coronavirus, and prepares brands for success in the long-term. It gives brands full access to the CommerceIQ automation platform and pairs you with a dedicated Amazon expert from the CommerceIQ Customer Success Team.
