140 | Marc St Raymond Shares the Secret to Getting To #1 on Amazon
Do you sell online?
Marc St. Raymond is a co-founder of Jade Leaf Matcha, the number one selling tea brand on Amazon.com and provider of premium quality, CCOF certified organic Japanese matcha at a fair price. In his position, Marc oversees Jade Leaf Matcha’s sourcing and works directly with partnering farms in Japan to provide the highest quality matcha to Jade Leaf Matcha’s consumers.
Prior to Jade Leaf Matcha, Marc applied his talents to software engineering and app development for tech startups, including some alongside Jade Leaf Matcha’s other co-founder, Will Crowthers. It was in this endeavour that he first discovered matcha and saw a gap in the industry. As a result, Marc left his job in tech to become an entrepreneur, founding Jade Leaf Matcha with the core belief that organic matcha green tea is a great addition to a healthy lifestyle.
Online sales can be difficult. There’s so many algorithms, so many competitors - how can you stand out? Service providers must stand out to grow their top line revenue - what’s going to bring in more of those ideal clients?
What’s one of the greatest secrets to achieving amazing online sales growth?
Reviews.
Reviews are everything in your business: any entrepreneur can make a claim about their business or their product, but it’s the reviews from satisfied customer reviews that other customers trust.
If you follow up with your customers after they purchase, and ask for their review, you then receive that social proof that other customers want to make a decision.
In fact, more than 70% of your potential customers are reading reviews before they make a purchase.
I love Yelp so much because it’s a FREE place for reviews. I love reading reviews before I make any purchasing decisions. Having reviews available helps solidify what a great service you offer.
This week’s guest on Success Unfiltered, Marc St Raymond, started a business selling matcha tea using Amazon as one of his distributors. Because of his intentionality in asking for reviews, his business is the number one matcha tea seller on Amazon!
If you’re ready to be inspired by how reviews can jump start your business, you won’t want to miss this week’s episode of Success Unfiltered!
