Everyone has different work experiences, companies, cities, achievements, and annual summaries... However, these are not important!
Importantly,Have you had a good year as an Amazon operator in 2021? How much money did you make? What is the monthly salary? Is the base salary high? Is the commission high?
It is reported that those who are satisfied with their work can receive the highest monthly salary during the peak season30000; Those who are not satisfied with their work have been in the industry for three or four years, and they have not received commissions during peak seasons. Even worse, they have not received commissions since entering the industry.

Envy:In 1996, the base salary for operations was 10000 yuan, and I was able to earn a commission shortly after starting operations
Many Amazon operators believe that they2021 has been quite good.
A certain operator stated that heNot long after joining the industry, I received a commissionAnd I'm doing very well nowDuring the peak season, when sales are at their best, you can earn a monthly commission30000 yuan,He thinks Amazon is still worth doing and is very fortunate to have entered the Amazon industry.
There is another operator who has also made a splash in the Amazon industry and achieved good results in the company's sales crown, but his operation path is not smooth sailing. At the beginning, due to introverted personality, I entered the industryFor over a year, I was still an operations novice. Fortunately, the company owner is a good person, and after realizing his shortcomings, he began to actively learn and solve problems. His efforts did not disappoint those who were willing, and now Amazon is doing better and better.
Although the other operator did not disclose information such as how long they had been in the industry and received commissions, the monthly income they received was very considerable. This operator stated that when he first graduatedenterEntering isA distribution company that has2 monthsI decided to leave my job and chose to work for a boutique company after feeling hopeless,What I learned at a boutique companyNot justMore than distribution companiesMany, even the monthly salary received is much higher.
According to operational feedback, many people believe that boutique companies have a more promising future and can earn more money. However, there are also many operators who believe that selling goods is actually very lucrative, and if it explodes, the profits will also be astonishing. One of the distribution operators stated that,Now the monthly commission can reachAbout 2000 yuan.
"When life is not satisfactory, I will talk about roast and occasionally have the idea of changing my career. In fact, I still think Amazon is very popular with my real mind", according to many operators,Amazon is still an excellent platform to help Diaosi counterattack.
Money is too difficult to earn! Amazon Operations:I haven't received any commission for the whole year of 2021
Just passed byIn 2021, there were also many operations that did not fare well. In the eyes of these operations, obtaining commissions is truly an unattainable thing.
“You may not know the concept of only receiving a base salary without receiving commission for a year .
We usually only use five words to describe this type of person: Amazon Operations!!!!!”
As the Spring Festival approaches, a large number of operators who cannot see what they have become feel that this sentence accurately summarizes their own2021.
What does it look like to grow up? I haven't really seen it this year. I've been living on a basic salary for the whole year, excluding the expenses of clothing, food, housing, and transportation, and now I've saved less than 10000 yuan in total, "said one operator, who is too shy and doesn't even want to go home for the Chinese New Year.
The other one was luckier in terms of poor operationsIn the first half of 2021, at least successfully joined the "commission army", but was kicked out in the second half. Overall, 2021 was also a miserable year, with less than half of the money earned last year.
The revenue generated by Amazon's operations is linked to many factors, and one of them cannot be ignored is the changes in Amazon's overall environment.In 2021, many Amazon companies were caught off guard by various unfavorable factors such as the influx of newcomers, skyrocketing shipping costs, European tax reforms, the rise of account closures, and shipping restrictions, and were caught in a difficult situation. Operators also felt "sad".
“In the second half of this year, due to European compliance tax payment and market influence, I did not receive a commission for several months and lived on a basic salary”A European station operator stated that due to tax deductions, the company's product profits have decreased, which has had a huge impact on their revenue. Now,His commission is not only gone, but he also needs to clear inventory day after day,I don't know if I can finish it the year after tomorrow.
After the European tax reform took effect, our boss took advantage of the situation and reduced the commission point by two points. It is reported that some companies, in order to save themselves, first thought of a way is to reduce employee expenses; Some companies will lay off employees to maintain normal operations,After the employee leaves, the commission is not paid for several months; Of course, there are also some companies with financial difficulties that not only cannot afford commissions, but also cannot pay their base salary on time,OperationalI only received my base salary for September in December... Faced with various similar operators, complaints abound.
In addition to Europe, many companies in other markets are also struggling this year, and employees are unable to wait for company layoffs, so they have to take their own buckets and run away.“this yearAt the beginning of the yearEntryYesThis new company,Until now, CompanyColleagues are approaching20 people have been reduced to only a few people left now,There are many departing colleagues who have been here for three or four years ”The operator stated that he had not been with the company for a year and had already become the oldest employee. The few remaining employees are likely to leave next year.
OperationsI haven't received a commission for 3 years, what's the problem?
Every small shock in the cross-border e-commerce export industry is a life and death situation for many Amazon companies. It is a difficult task for companies that are deeply trapped to get out of their predicament and start light. Can employees leave and switch companies to start over, and can they save their half dead income?
I have been in my own company for two or three years, with a base salary of over 10000 yuan and very little commission. The new employee I brought recently changed jobs. Although he has shallower qualifications than me, his current salary is still higher than mine,Sometimes choosereallyGreater than effort”An operator stated that,Company commission pointscategoryFactors such as the level of promotion and support have resulted in uneven operating salaries.
In addition to the constraints of the overall environment and the company's commission system and development model, personal operational ability and skills are also of utmost importance. Have operational feedback and create your own AmazonFor three years, he never received a commission, and he knew the key problem very well. "I am introverted and have a weak ability to learn actively. When encountering problems, I don't know how to think, nor do I know how to ask people
The idea of making a product may be well-known to all operators, but the difficulty lies in the ability to control details. When will advertising be adjusted? When will the price be adjusted? When will the inventory be cleared?Every detail is a knowledge. So, many times, a good company and a good product require Amazon to have the matching ability to operate them.
