Listener Request: Navigating Amazon's Book Review Minefield

This is another listener request and we're talking about trigger words that could potentially result in your hard-earned reviews being pulled from your retail page. We chat about the fine line between what reviewers should say to maintain authenticity and what words they should tactfully avoid to ensure their reviews don't get flagged or worse, their accounts blacklisted. And what's your role as an author? You must lead this charge! It's your responsibility to stay on top of industry standards so your readers feel confident supporting your brand.We'll share tips on effectively communicating with your readers and potential reviewers, and fostering genuine engagement while steering clear of any violations of Amazon's terms of service. Send us your feedback!Help shape our 2026 content by taking our 30-second listener poll!📱Text Penny & Amy: send us your show feedback, burning marketing questions and new topic ideas! Text the word PODCAST to (888) 402-8940 to sign up to send us messages and receive new episode announcements.
