If you sell on Amazon, you’ve probably felt the impact of FBA prep services being retired and the confusion that has followed.
MyFBAPrep Director of Sales Michael Kliska is speaking on an upcoming Saltbox webinar where we’ll break down what’s changed, what Amazon expects now, and how sellers can keep inventory moving in 2026 without running into costly compliance issues.
It’s practical, tactical, and built for sellers who want to stay ahead rather than scramble.

How to Turn Amazon Returns Into Revenue: A Guide to Amazon Returns Processing for FBA, FBM, and DTC Sellers
Returns are inevitable. Revenue loss doesn’t have to be.

Partner Spotlight 📣 Listing Optimization & Localization: One Thing AI Still Can’t Do
AI is now everywhere in Amazon listing creation. But going into 2026, one thing is clear: AI still cannot make listings rank organically.
It can help draft text and surface keywords, but organic growth on Amazon is still driven by buyer behavior, not wording alone.
AI reaches its limit when it comes to clicks, conversion, time on page, and low returns.
Winning sellers are shifting to a hybrid approach in 2026:
* AI for speed and efficiency
* Humans for structure and market logic
Instead of localizing listings by translating keywords, top teams now localize around buyer objections per market.
* German buyers value clarity and specifications.
* UK buyers respond to use cases.
* US buyers prioritize benefits and speed.
Amazon’s algorithm rewards this because better alignment drives stronger engagement signals, which in turn drive rankings.
AI helps, but human structure wins. Our friends at Margin Business have broken this down in detail in their latest blog.
