Amazon doesn't open in a new country every day, requiring extensive analysis and planning, making its upcoming launch in South Africa a significant event for businesses. This unique opportunity allows sellers to enter a relatively unsaturated market, enabling them to implement cost-saving marketing strategies and solidify their product rankings. By listing early on Amazon, businesses can capitalize on lower competition, improve their visibility, and benefit from the fast-growing e-commerce landscape in South Africa, ultimately making it a strategic move for brand positioning.

Since launching in South Africa, Fluid/SA has expanded its mission to support both established brands and grassroots entrepreneurs eager to benefit from Amazon’s local presence. Originally focused on larger companies, the agency now also offers free consultations, training, and discounted setups to solopreneurs and side hustlers. This adaptive approach allows Fluid/SA to contribute meaningfully to South Africa’s vibrant, entrepreneurial economy.

In "The Amazon Roadmap," McGin and Segal discuss four reasons why business owners hesitate to embrace e-commerce: believing their products don’t sell well online, being undecided about e-commerce as a strategic direction, seeing it as a small part of their business, and pressure from distributors not to sell on Amazon. They argue that most products can succeed online, the industry is moving toward e-commerce regardless, and investing early in e-commerce can lead to growth. Ignoring e-commerce or letting distributors dictate strategy can hinder a company's success in the evolving retail landscape.
