How to effectively complain and prevent Amazon brand products from being copied

When Amazon sellers face the challenge of brand products being copied, it is particularly important to take effective complaints and preventive measures. This article will introduce the action steps on how to complain about others copycat, and how to take preventive measures to protect your own brand rights.

Steps to complain about others selling for sale

  1. Issue a warning letter to the seller
    Amazon Brand Registration is an important way for sellers to protect their brands. When it is discovered that someone else is selling the product, the seller can send a warning letter to the other party and ask the seller to stop the behavior. The warning letter should include the ASIN code, screenshots of counter-selling and evidence of brand trademark registration, and inform that if the counter-selling is not stopped, Test Buy will be conducted and a complaint will be made to Amazon about the infringement.

  2. Making a Test Buy complaint
    Test Buy is a method to verify the selling behavior and collect evidence. Sellers can place an order to purchase goods to prove that there is a problem with the products of the seller. It is necessary to contact the Amazon sales performance team, provide the Test Buy order number and relevant information of the selling merchant, and attach comparison photos with the genuine product.

Effective strategies to prevent products from being copied

  1. Brand Registration
    Carrying out brand registration on Amazon allows sellers to have legal protection rights on the platform, which helps prevent the occurrence of follow-up products.

  2. Find new and exciting products
    Choose unique or patented products because their supply is scarce, which can effectively reduce the chance of being copied. Sellers can focus on product variations to increase barriers to market competition.

  3. Pair sales strategy
    Combining best-selling products with slow-selling products for bundling sales can reduce the risk of joint sales. Helps enhance brand certification and consumer loyalty.

  4. Participate in Amazon’s Transparency and Plan Zero programs
    The transparency program helps users determine the authenticity of participating products by labeling them with unique blue QR codes. Plan Zero generates independent QR codes for each product so that sellers can handle follow-up sales more directly.

The importance of maintaining brand image

Establishing a good brand image is the key to preventing follow-up problems. Providing high-quality products and good customer service can not only enhance consumers’ trust, but also reduce the impact of follow-up sales. At the same time, regular monitoring of market prices and competitor dynamics is also an important means to reduce the risk of being followed.

To sum up, by actively taking complaint measures and implementing effective prevention strategies, Amazon sellers can better safeguard their own brand rights and prevent brand products from being copied.
