On March 22 2023 Helium 10’s Weekly Buzz announced three Amazon seller upgrades: Brand Profile pages (requires Brand Registry and ≥3 ASINs), an Express Payout option that shrinks the 14‑day hold to a few hours, and a three‑tier keyword research workflow using Magnet, Cerebro and Keyword Tracker.
Overview
On March 22 2023 Helium 10’s Weekly Buzz, led by Chief Brand Evangelist Bradley Sutton, announced three seller‑focused upgrades: Amazon’s new Brand Profile pages, an “Express Payout” option for faster cash access, and a three‑stage keyword research workflow embedded in Helium 10 tools. Each change is designed to boost brand exposure, shorten fund‑release cycles, and sharpen product listings—critical levers for Amazon merchants looking to scale.
Key Points
- Brand Profiles — Registered brands can now assemble a mini‑website inside Amazon that bundles product lines, storytelling, and media assets.
- Express Payout — Qualified sellers may request same‑day transfers of eligible earnings, cutting the usual 14‑day hold to a few hours.
- Three‑Tier Keyword Method — Helium 10 recommends seed‑keyword generation, competitor gap discovery, and long‑tail validation, each supported by dedicated tools.
- Eligibility Rules — Brand Profiles need Amazon Brand Registry enrollment and at least three active ASINs; Express Payout requires a clean account health record and proven sales velocity.
- Early Results — Sellers who have piloted the new features report higher click‑through rates on their brand pages and noticeably smoother cash flow after using Express Payout.
How Amazon Brand Profiles Work
- Register the Brand — Submit trademark paperwork to Amazon’s Brand Registry; once approved, the seller unlocks the profile builder. Example: A skincare line files its “PureRadiance” trademark, gains access, and can start constructing a profile.
- Design the Layout — Using Amazon’s drag‑and‑drop editor, add a hero banner, brand video, and curated product collections. Example: “PureRadiance” uploads a 25‑second brand video and creates separate sections for serums, moisturizers, and eye creams.
- Publish and Link — After publishing, the profile appears on the brand’s storefront and can be linked from individual product pages, A+ content, or external campaigns.
