Amazon Training Workshop – creating a winning Amazon mindset

Published on: 24th January 2022

There is no magic bullet when dealing with Amazon, but Etopia and 496 Partnership believe knowing the secrets of seasoned experts could help develop an Amazon Mindset.

Etopia Consultancy, together with 496 Partnership, will be hosting an interactive workshop, exploring the fundamental tenets of the ever-evolving beast called Amazon and revealing how to adopt an Amazon Mindset.

Up to three people from cross-functional teams are invited for an Amazon training day. This training is for everyone who wants to be successful in engaging with and doing business on Amazon.

Participants will leave with a practical plan detailing how to move their business forward. Training will cover beginner to intermediate, as well as advanced level aspects of Amazon. Therefore, no prior knowledge of Amazon is required.
