the same issue, good October while November is very quiet which is strange, same amount of products in inventory…

October was dire and so is November so far. I really am hoping its just people withholding spending until late into november but I'm not sure. I have my doubts. I'm not sure people will be spending what they usually do on non essential items like ours.

Cant get my head round how quite it is at present down 50 Percent on last year. Time to call it a day on Amazon I think

I am quite new to Amazon, like, it hasn't been a year for me. I had a good start and a summer decline, which makes sense, but then Sept was a boom for me. However, since the start of Oct, it's been a constant decline. I am getting a bit desperate as I went from an order a day in Sept to only one order in November.

It has been a bizarre one for us too. From 20-30 sales a day all year to now 2-3 sales a day for October and now November. Only one thing I can think of was running out of stock for 3-4 days but we have sent in more stock yet sales are still awful. Could it be something to do with a algorithm update?

Glad you posted this as I am experiencing the same this month. November sales are usually double other months and in December, it goes up to about times 5. I think that with the cost of living, a lot of people are waiting for that November pay cheque to drop.

Technically, the country is in recession "UK economic growth slows to 0.1% in final figures before Budget"

Start with Traffic numbers. Are sessions to your products same. Just pick 5 best sellers and see what is happening with traffic. If traffic has dropped, check if ads have given you same impression as compared to reference point (last month or same period last year) . Then look at indexing of your listing and keyword rank on Amazon.
Just thinking sales gone down will not help you, you need to dig down and see what is causing that. May be then you have better chance to fix it or move to a different product range. All things remaining same, overall sales for most sellers this year are down as compared to last year. People have not got as much cash to spend on shopping anymore. Good luck

THANKYOU It's not just me...well it could still be me but I'm a new seller that sold a few boxes in Oct and just one or two in Nov. Always something to clip my wings!

Yes me too. November normally really accelerates for Xmas but it has been the just the same sales rate as October. Annoyingly Ive got excess inventory now and get charged double for storage between October and Jan!
Maybe early Xmas shoppers (November)are going on Temu and shein, as their shipping is a lot faster now
