Hack Athletics embarked on their journey with Amazon.in earlier this year facing the typical challenges new sellers encounter: navigating the complexities of online retail, optimizing listings, and understanding the nuances of our algorithms to improve their growth by 6x in 6 months.
“In the early days, we were like a small fish in a vast ocean of online sellers!” laughs Nipun Agarwal, founder of Hack Athletics. “Our products were innovative—designed to enhance athletic performance through premium quality and value-for-money products—but standing out in a crowded marketplace was a challenge. That's when we reached out to Amazon’s small business team for guidance. Their advice on pricing strategies and timing led to a surge in sales that we hadn't experienced before. It was a turning point for our brand, and it made us realize the immense potential of our products on the marketplace.”
