Asking customers to review the product
Hi everyone
I have launched a couple of products for the last couple of months and the only time I get any sales is when I advertise. The COAS is above 50% and its basically not worth doing. Can I put a small thank you card within the parcel and ask the customers to review/rate the product to get discounts on their future orders? Is it something that is allowed? The reason to ask this is that many forums say that reviews and ratings boosts organic growth and despite spending a lot of money my products only get sales when I advertise.
Thanks in advance

No, in short.
You can include inserts, but asking for a review with the compensation of a discount is not allowed.
You can review the Product Insert Compliance in full to see what is allowed.

Hello @Indialine,
To increase sales i suggest to have a look also on this help page that provides some tips (product description/ pictures/ promotions).
As @osgood said is not allowed to offer compensation for review.
@osgood thank you for your post!

Just making you aware its against Amazon policy to offer a financial incentive for a review.

Advertising tends to work that way. When you first start, it’s highly likely that it will cost you more than what you earn in sales.
But as the product gets to be better known, you can reduce your advertising spend and even increase the price.
People have to know about a product in order to buy it. And the higher ranked it is, the more likely people will buy.
