We’re OJ Digital Solutions. We create launch-ready killer Amazon product listings for any product. Any niche. Any market.
With over 8000 listings written and optimized (as of 2022), our team will put everything we have learned at your disposal to ensure you get a killer product listing that will dominate competitors.
With a team of native speakers, we don’t only cover the US market, but also all the main EU markets, including the UK, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Netherlands, Sweden, and Poland.
Tell us about yourself?
I’m an Italian/Lebanese Entrepreneur, fluent in 5 languages. I started selling on Amazon Europe in 2017 when I was living in France and trying to start my own business.
During my journey, I connected with the Amazon sellers community, and I was explaining and showing how I used to optimize my product listings in various EU markets to improve sales and conversion rate.
Soon enough, I started receiving multiple requests to help them write and translate their product listings in those same markets. I saw the need and decided to fully focus on this service, as I felt more fulfilled by helping people directly through a service rather than selling products to people I don’t know.
Within a year, I built a strong agency of 10 people at that time, serving amazon sellers in all corners of the world, and today we’re proud to have a team of 25+ people all working remotely and having served more than 5000 clients.
If you could go back in time a year or two, what piece of advice would you give yourself?
With all the options and opportunities available today, it’s very easy to get distracted and wanting to help people in multiple fields. So if I could go back in time, I would definitely tell myself to focus 100% on a single end goal, serving a single targeted audience. This will be more impactful on that particular audience. The end goal will take time and it should be broken down to milestones with deadlines, and no goal is reached without people, so I would tell myself to set a time to build relationships with valuable people that will help me achieve the goal I’m setting.
What problem does your business solve?
Amazon sellers want to focus on growing their business, and the success of their product launch relies primarily on the product listing they have online that every buyer will see.
A successful listing needs professional writing, image designs & knowledge of Amazon’s algorithm and all that is very time consuming to learn effectively. We create launch-ready killer Amazon listings for any product. Any niche. Any market.
What is the inspiration behind your business?
The frustration of sellers not being able to show their amazing products to potential buyers just because they don’t have the proper language skills, technical keyword research skills and SEO knowledge and techniques.
Some amazing products are out there, and I help amazon sellers show those product to the world in many markets across America & Europe.
What is your magic sauce?
I am an Amazon seller myself, I am in constant contact with very well known amazon software companies doing constant research on how to grow on amazon, as well as in contact with thousands of active sellers.
This allows me to learn from both ends and being constantly up to date with the latest knowledge in the industry. And since I speak 5 languages fluently, I can help sellers across different countries and also better train our teams on providing higher quality work.
What is the plan for the next 5 years? What do you want to achieve?
As we’ve mastered what we’re currently doing at the moment. My plan is to expand by providing other services that will help the same audience.
What is the biggest challenge you’ve faced so far?
In the past, as we got so many requests from our existing clients to provide other services that can help them (graphic design, PPC, account management), we jumped in too quickly without having the capacity to deliver an excellent service.
We were always fully booked for weeks ahead, and it was hard for us to grow the team as we have a rigorous selection process. So we’ve learned to slow down, solidifying our processes, mastering what we’re doing and then moving forward.
How do people get involved/buy into your vision?
We want to help Amazon sellers with their product launch by providing killer launch-ready product listings that will improve click-through rate and conversion rate. They can get in contact with us directly via our website https://ojdigitalsolutions.com
