We’re right in the thick of the holiday season…
Meaning we’re smackdab in the middle of the biggest shopping season of the year.
But while we’re busy shelling out cash to every buy-one-get-one 50% off deal in our inbox, retailers are counting up their profits, stuffing a wallet that’s already too heavy to hold.
One owner of that hefty wallet is, unsurprisingly, the biggest online retailer in the world, Amazon.
Last year, Amazon made more than $3 million in profit during the fourth quarter – a 20% increase from the year prior.
And this time around, the ecommerce giant is going even bigger. Amazon pulled out all the stops for the holiday season, from a “12 days of deals” campaign to speedy one-day shipping.
There’s no question that the holidays are a huge cash cow for Amazon. The question here is how you can take a chunk of that change for yourself.
