After these five promotions are successfully reported, they will be displayed on the European end-summer promotion and back-to-school season activity page, but this does not mean that the success is complete. It is recommended that sellers always pay attention to the promotion status after the report, and adjust it in time according to different conditions. Promotional programs:
Approved
Promotion will run on start date. Amazon has reviewed the promotion, no further action is required from you. If the promotion start date has passed, the promotion may already be live and running on the Amazon page.

You may need to remove products, modify amounts, or make other changes, please do so as soon as possible. Your promotion will be reviewed again by the business team, which may take up to 7 days.

Use high-quality images for your promotions:
Please make sure that the images do not contain any text, logos or watermarks that are not part of the product itself. If the promotion does not meet Amazon's product image requirements, or if the image shown does not represent the product being promoted, the promotion may be cancelled.
Improve product detail pages:
Increases the odds that Amazon customers will buy your product. You can share your brand message and unique product benefits using bullet points, showcasing images, and using A+ pages.
It is recommended that all sellers report as much as possible. While preparing the main ASIN products, they should also use the advertising products flexibly, and pay attention to setting the daily price reasonably, so as to make better profits in the big promotion!
I hope that all sellers can make adequate preparations in advance. During the peak season, if there is a need for funds, look for bean paste bags. The exclusive funding solution for cross-border e-commerce helps sellers to go overseas. Sellers who meet the application qualifications will have the opportunity to obtain the products launched by domestic financial institutions. Loan products can effectively alleviate cash flow problems, develop business, operate stockpiles and expand business territory.
