Episode 95 Smoke and the Mirror Behind Amazon Prime Day
Prime Day is Bullshit Day Across America
Are you getting excited to search the Deals on Prime Day?
This year Prime Day was moved from June, a great time to clear out the FBA (Amazon) warehouses to make room for the holiday inventory which typically starts in June. How do I know?

Amazon Prime is constantly growing in the United States: as of December 2019, there were an estimated 112 million U.S. Amazon Prime subscribers, up from 95 million in June 2018. On average, Amazon Prime members spent 1,400 U.S. dollars on the e-retail platform per year. March 2019 data also states that non-Prime members only spent 600 U.S. dollars annually.

In 2019, Amazon generated 19.21 billion U.S. dollars in revenues through its subscription services segment. Subscription services do not only include Amazon Prime revenues, but also audiobook, e-book, digital video, digital music and other non-AWS subscription services.
