Next Gen Selling - Lord Help Us....

Based on an admittedly-cursory glance at the source code, I strongly suspect that our friend @TEXASEXILEBOOKS is likely correct about this new Dashboard being optimized for the Amazon Seller App - and given past history, I’ll be surprised if the changes are actually synced between the two.

At least, not while they’re still tinkering…

Lots of smoke being smelled upthread.

Connor’s 032025 NSE discussion might well be the tinder fer tha kindlin’:

If you build it, they will come - but there will come a time when they will NOT if’n ya fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way…

Wasn’t it just 2022 when the current experience was the “new” experience.

This might not suck.

Except Amazon will find a way.

Dear Amazon: Are you aware that we totally used to be able to customize our dashboards, YEARS AGO? Then you totally took that away from us. So what’s new and totally lit to you, Next Gen, is old to me, from That Totally Earlier Gen.

But this new beautiful customizatons interface is beautiful, nothing like it ever, i have been told. And Amazon, Bezo, is great, powerful, and well, you can not fight the powerful, since you have no cards, so you might want to just get on board. Like I have. He has 2 great yachts, both are huge, same as the cocktail waitresses. Huge.

And the dashbroads are easily manupulated, the drinks are strong, and you can play with them until they give you what you want.

Sounds like the Wizard of Oz.

“Oscar Zoroaster Phadrig Isaac Norman Henkle Emmannuel Ambroise Diggs” was the great and powerful Oz. The problem was he took different forms (in the book) and appeared to others as they would like to see, or as he wanted them to see. A magician of sorts.

Oh wait, we were talking about Bezos… Never mind.

Are you saying he has “fat” cocktail waitresses? That is not very nice…

I turned it on… oh vey: “Widget Whitespace”

Because everything is a “widget” that allows for customization there is a ■■■■■■■■ of wasted whitespace on a desktop version of the site.

Why the ■■■■ does website design have to get WORSE for it to be “better”!

Way too much clicking and scrolling because the important thing, information, is not above the fold.

I gave them feedback that this seller still uses a DESKTOP WORK COMPUTER to do work not my phone.

Why? Because you make money from selling! Selling makes money, money pays people. Money pays vendors, that pay people. People need money for food and shelter or they die.

Then there is the need for at least three screens. Since companies like Amazon can’t create a GUI that can do it on one screen. I did this in my bedroom (at a desk) 30 years ago. And was on the cover of a magazine (at my desk) so tired of bloated code.

And the fact that my anger with Amazon caused my “z” key to fall off my keyboard.

Big a$$ product performance whiteboard that doesn’t work on my seller central home page - yay!

Tried playing with drop down menu - set to most interacted with on screenshot but changed to favorites as well and doesn’t work after marking specific skus as favorites.

Let’s see what tomorrow brings after reset.

Yepper, noticed the same on this SoA account’s SC Dashboard this morning (it hasn’t appeared on all as of yet, nor even for all of our workstations).


If past history is any indicator of future performance, I’ll be surprised if the intended functionalities are fully rolled-out to all b4 September 1…

I have the " Product Performance" drop down with 629 products listed on 126 pages.

Yes. Someone’s been showing how important they are to the survival of the company by annoying sellers.

I wasn’t even allowed to see the page (white-out) until I gave feedback. Guess what sort.

Then have to monkey around with two big space hogging features I do not want. They are now condensed at any rate.
