My favorite quote: “if you never ask, the answer will always be no” – Norah Roberts.
I identify with that quote and believe people need to communicate. I also don’t take no very well if I want something. Always found angles as a kid to obtain what I was looking for -obviously failed a lot. All things were done with bending or being within the rules, never breaking them.
Fast forward to young adulthood. I fell for sales. I understood how to convince people of what I wanted but also understood that if I get them what they want, I will ultimately get what I want. That realization is the factor that told me I have a background in sales.

Edward Richter
15 years in ecommerce with 5 exits ranging from industrial goods, electronics, home & garden as well as power equipment with a heavy amount of revenue focused on Amazon.
About 10 years ago, my electronics dot com began to grow our Amazon presence. We went from doing 10 orders per day to 1000 on Amazon within just a few months. All that growth was great, however, we found that keeping up with Amazon’s strict rules of ODR and upkeeping 95%+ feedback was hard.
Over the last decade, our focus has always been customer service in all of my retail companies, and while I welcomed Amazon’s strict rules and SLA’s, it was still a challenge to get to 99% error-free orders based upon Amazon’s ODR metrics.
We began to build parts of our team that would focus on reducing negative feedback, claims etc, but there was always those cases where the feedback or claim was not fair and not warranted. Sometimes a product claim vs. our service etc. In the beginning, it was easy to tell Amazon something was wrong and they would fix and remove the feedback. As time went on, especially in 2018, it became near impossible.
This is where FeedbackFixers was born. We have built and perfected a process in house through a decade of feedback experience as an FBM retailer for working with unpleasant feedback. Our passion is to service the customer, but it is also to make it fair and give the ability to small business’s to succeed on Amazon with our amazing service.
