對于亞馬遜賣家來說,“跟賣”這個詞一定不陌生,尤其是對于正規賣家來說,最惡心不過的事兒就是養大了的寶貝被跟賣了。現在,已經有不少針對跟賣的措施辦法了,但不論是test buy、零計劃,還是透明計劃,或多或少都有優劣勢,哪怕是現在將要把賣家信息公開的做法,如果是被用買來的帳號跟賣,同樣也無法解決根本問題。
對于跟賣,大家都會用各種辦法來趕跑,但不論是哪種方式,都不能說一定有效,最終是否能趕跑,取決權還是在于平臺,所以平臺的認可才是你能否趕跑跟賣的關鍵。而平臺是否認可你趕跟賣這件事,一方面取決于跟賣的人是否真的違反了目前平臺的政策(因為所有的趕跟賣行為都是在舉證跟賣的人違反了平臺政策),另一方面就是取決于平臺認為這件事的風險成本,即如果不將跟賣者踢出局,平臺會不會受牽連或者扯進不必要的麻煩中,所以今天給大家分享一個就第二種思路下的趕跟賣方案“發律師信”,雖然在形式上還是聯系跟賣者給予警告,但律師信的效力遠遠大于你精心編輯的一套文案,且如果對方不理會的話在基于律師信和將在例如美國當地上訴的前提下給亞馬遜申請移除跟賣者的話,被采納的可能性很高,親測雖然不是百分之百有效,但成功率比一般手段成功率要高且快很多。
下面給大家分享一種律師信的模板,供大家借鑒:
