Sales rank drops have been a core part of reseller training for years. But what happens when the charts go flat and the old signals aren't working as well? In this episode, Brian Olson sits down with fellow coach Grant Douglas to break down the recent shift to Amazon's A10 algorithm, what it means for Keepa users, and how to rethink sales velocity without overcomplicating your sourcing process. They unpack an updated 3-Step Check, discuss new tools like the "Sold in Last 30 Days" stat, and highlight real-world strategies that resellers can use to test smarter, even in a changing landscape.
