Sales down -60% since joining FBA

We sell a product made in the USA and has been doing well on Amazon. We were always doing fulfillment by merchant and were finally invited to do FBA. Since then and as you can guess by the graph attached sales are down... significantly. Not only are sales down but margins are also smaller because AMZN charges FBA fees per item so multi item order fees now are doubled.

You would think with SEO optimization and FBA/ Prime shipping the listing would be doing significantly better.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is it temporary?

I wouldn't necessarily attribute any declines to FBA.

If you search the Forum there are LOTS of posts about slow sales. I only do FBM and in the past 3 months I have gone from down 25% to down 39% on a YTD basis.

There are posts on here of sellers that WERE doing 7 and 8 figures that are down 60% and more.

It's Amazon and the economy.
