There is hope for a big order! The United States is giving out money again, and these people can receive up to $1,100

This week, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to pass a $3.5 trillion budget framework. This livelihood subsidy covers preschool education, child care, etc. The epidemic has caused financial distress to many people , and more than 2 million people have petitioned, calling on the government to pay people $2,000 regularly.

The states have begun to save themselves . California has just signed a bill that will provide citizens with up to $1,100 in relief funds in September . The funds will arrive as early as the end of August . Sellers are expected to see a wave of orders in September.

2.8 million people petition for $2,000 per month

On August 24, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the framework of Biden's $3.5 trillion "infrastructure plan" by a narrow margin of 220 votes to 212. On September 27 , the House of Representatives will finally vote on this infrastructure budget framework.

It is understood that the plan will include free kindergarten preparatory education for children aged three to four; two years of free community college education for high school graduates; increased medical benefits for the elderly ; and requiring the government to reduce taxes for families with annual incomes below $ 400,000 .

As the epidemic continues to hit, these subsidies will ease the economic pressure on Americans. The previous three rounds of relief funds have basically ended, but these funds are unlikely to support the expenses of most people for a long time. It is reported that so far more than 2.8 million people have signed a petition on Change.org, calling on members of Congress to pass legislation to pay people $2,000 on a regular basis every month.

Some members of Congress have accepted this idea , and two groups of members have written to President Biden requesting regular distribution of relief funds to the people .

Some states have already begun to save themselves.

California will issue up to $1,100 per person, and the money will arrive as soon as this week

According to foreign media reports, California has just signed a bill that will see Californians receive stimulus payments of up to $1,100 starting at the end of this month. The money will arrive as early as this Friday, but most of the funds are expected to be distributed starting September 1.

The grant is part of Governor Gavin Newsom's $12 billion stimulus package. To receive the money, you must meet certain conditions:

1. Annual income must be less than $75,000;

2. Live in California most of the year;

3. Tax returns must be submitted before October 15th.

According to these conditions, nearly two-thirds of people can get this relief money , which is a high proportion! According to relevant regulations, if you meet the conditions, each person can get $600, and if you have dependents, you can get an additional $500, for a total of up to $1,100.

The stimulus package is designed to provide direct relief to Californians hardest hit by the pandemic and support the state's economic recovery. "Every extra dollar put in people's pockets helps Californians pay for basic needs like groceries, clothing and mounting bills," said Amy Everett, president of Golden State Opportunity.

As relief funds are being distributed , the U.S. unemployment rate is also declining, and the economy appears to be slowly recovering.

The U.S. Department of Labor reported that the U.S. non-farm payrolls increased by 943,000 in July, compared with expectations of 870,000. The previous value was revised to 938,000, and the initial value was 850,000. The U.S. unemployment rate fell to 5.4% in July, compared with expectations of 5.7% and the previous value of 5.9%.

The seasonally adjusted non-farm payrolls in the United States increased by 943,000 in July, the largest increase since April last year. The unemployment rate in the United States in July was 5.4%, the lowest since April last year.

The number of unemployed people has decreased, and many Californians will receive subsidies in early September . Cross-border sellers are expected to see a surge in orders. One seller said bluntly: " There is not enough inventory. "

Sellers ' sales increased and profits rebounded in August

Referring to the previous situation, after the United States issued money, the most intuitive feeling of cross-border sellers is that there will be a wave of orders. After September 1, sellers can expect a full recovery of orders.

In fact, some sellers have reported in recent days that orders are gradually picking up . One seller said that they are starting to recover. If they can seize the 4-month peak season, they can have half a year off next year. This is the rhythm of the peak season coming !

Many sellers have experienced the joy of an increase in orders. One seller said that orders have started to pick up recently. Is the peak season coming? Another seller was overjoyed : "School has started in the United States. Everything is bought up in a rush . The total conversion rate has exceeded 15%."

With the arrival of the school season in the United States , sales of related products have increased, with considerable orders for general home furnishings, outdoor sports, student clothing, dormitory decoration and other categories .

"August gives people a sense of hope because the profit in July was too low, even a loss. The order volume and profit in August have slowly increased." said an Amazon seller.

This month , some sellers began to abandon their previous low-price spiral strategy and sell products at normal prices, which naturally led to a significant increase in profits . Compared with July , August is relatively friendly ; as the peak season approaches, September's orders and profits are worth looking forward to.

To meet the demand during the peak season, many links need to be linked together, but the current logistics link is not strong.

Logistics is in a slump , and Amazon 's warehouse feedback surges

The peak season is approaching, and sales of Christmas and other products have begun to rise about one month earlier than in previous years. Under the double blow of last year's crazy stocking and the sluggish situation in the first half of the year, sellers sincerely hope that this peak season can be extended a little.

The delivery process is still constrained. Amazon's delivery quantity restrictions have not been relaxed, and it is not easy for sellers to apply to expand the delivery quantity . In order to replenish stocks in time, some people took the risk of creating excess shipments, but the shipments were soon cancelled.

It is not easy to ship within the restrictions. This week, Amazon sellers have increased their feedback on warehouse division. One seller was furious: "I have an old account for several years. I have always shipped according to the requirements. If the quantity and size are correct, they will be assigned to one warehouse. Suddenly , starting from last week , no matter what I do, one of my SKUs (randomly) will be pulled out and assigned to another warehouse . I have tried to change the shipping quantity and shipping address, but it doesn't work. " Because the profit margin is small, the warehouse division fee for shipping multiple SKUs makes sellers feel distressed.

Many sellers said that the above situation is not an isolated case and they have also encountered it recently. "This has never happened before. Recently, the warehouse has been divided, and a SKU has to be separated . " "It's the same for me. Since last week, there has always been a separate warehouse divided. Deleting the SKU doesn't work, and changing the address doesn't work either."

Regarding this issue, some sellers have tried and found that using the new shipping method Send to Amazon can largely solve the problem of warehouse distribution. This may be Amazon's way of promoting sellers to use the new version.

The goods were finally delivered to the FBA warehouse, and another seller was depressed: "The goods have been in FTW1 for more than a week, and there is no news." "FTW1 is a huge pit, we haven't arranged to put the goods on the shelves for two weeks." In addition to this famous warehouse, there are sellers complaining that the goods have been in LAS1 for three weeks and are still not on the shelves.

In addition to the FBA link , the high prices of sea freight and air delivery are also eroding profits. How to balance timeliness and costs while preparing enough goods for the fourth quarter has become a question for sellers to think about .

America, give money, explosion of orders
