Hey, everyone. I'm back with another Founder's Notes entry for a quick news update.
Hiker's Gold is now available on Amazon, with free, two-day shipping to Amazon Prime customers.
Amazon was one of my first priorities when launching our Nut & Chickpea Bars. There's tons of competition, but there's also a ton of traffic. And that traffic is hard to replicate, which means if you're on Amazon, people are going to see your product. At least, that's the idea.
So far, the results have been worth the work. But that doesn't mean I don't want you to shop here at HikersGold.com. It just means you have another option.
When you shop at Amazon, they take a cut of the sale. When you shop here, we keep all of that sale. So yes, please do shop here, but if you have to, Amazon works as well.
Why sell on Amazon if they're taking a cut? The traffic and volume potential they offer make up it. Basically, Amazon allows us to sell more than we otherwise would, which boosts both our sales and profit.
You can find our Amazon listing here.
As always, thanks for reading.
