residents currently residing in one of 50 United States and the District of Columbia who are at least
18 years of age and an actively enrolled Amazon selling partner with a Seller Forums account.
Employees, officers, and directors of Amazon.com Services LLC (“Sponsor”) or any of its
respective parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, representatives, consultants, contractors, legal counsel,
advertising, public relations, promotional, fulfillment, and marketing agencies (collectively, the
“Sweepstakes Entities”) and members of their immediate families (spouses, parents, siblings and

agreement to these Official Rules and to Sponsor’s decisions, which are final and binding in all
matters related to the Sweepstakes. Winning a prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements,
as set forth herein. Sponsor reserves the right to verify the eligibility of winners.
2. Sponsor. Amazon.com Services LLC, 410 Terry Avenue, Seattle, WA 98109.
3. Sweepstakes Period. The Sweepstakes begins when Sponsor creates a post on the Seller
Forums announcing the start of the Sweepstakes on November 4, 2024 (“Sweepstakes Post”) and
ends on November 22, 2024 at 11:59pm PT (“Sweepstakes Period”). Sponsor’s computer is the
official time keeping device for the Sweepstakes.
4. How to Enter.
An Amazon Seller Forums Community Manager account will create the Sweepstakes Post at the
beginning of the Sweepstakes Period. In order to enter, during the Sweepstakes Period you must
comment on the Sweepstakes Post with your tips on how to manage or boost your business during
slow sales periods.
Sweepstakes participation requires (i) access to the internet; and (ii) a valid Sellers Forum account.
It is free to sign up for a Sellers Forum account. Internet access, phone, and usage charges imposed
by your online or mobile service provider(s) may apply.
Upon completing the required steps, you will receive one (1) entry (“Entry”) into the Sweepstakes.
LIMIT OF ONE (1) ENTRY PER PERSON. Entries received in excess of this limit will be
disqualified. Any attempt by an individual to submit more than the stated number of Entries may
result in disqualification. All winners are subject to verification before any prize will be awarded
(each a “Potential Winner” until verified).
By submitting an Entry, you (“Entrant”) agree that Sponsor or its designees may contact you via
your case log in Seller Central. Sponsor and Sponsor’s agents, affiliates, subsidiaries,
representatives, or service providers may use Entrants’ personal information submitted with Entry
for purposes of prize fulfillment and/or for future marketing by Sponsor, such as to notify them of a
product or promotion that Sponsor thinks may be of interest.
Automated or bulk Entries or Entries submitted by third parties will be disqualified, at Sponsor’s
discretion. Multiple Entrants are not permitted to share the same Sellers Forum account. In the
event of a dispute as to the identity of an Entrant, the authorized account holder of the Sellers
Forum account used to register will be deemed to be the Entrant. The “authorized account holder”
is the natural person assigned a Sellers Forum account by Sponsor. Potential Winners may be
required to show proof of being the authorized account holder to the Sponsor or forfeit the prize.
Entries specifying an invalid, non-working, or inactive social media handle will be disqualified and
ineligible to win. All information or steps required by these Official Rules must be completed and
provide to be eligible to enter. Incomplete, illegible, corrupted, or untimely Entries are void and
will be disqualified.

in connection with this Sweepstakes (collectively, “Content Submissions”) may not contain,

(first names are permitted), e-mail addresses or street addresses for any person other than entrant,
or otherwise infringes on the privacy of any person other than an entrant; (v) communicates
messages or images inconsistent with the positive image and good will of Sponsor’s brand; and/or
(vii) violates any law. Any Content Submissions that contain such content will be disqualified.
Sponsor reserves the right in its sole and unfettered discretion to disqualify any Content

is not consistent with the spirit or theme of the Sweepstakes.

eligible Entries received.
ALL POTENTIAL WINNERS ARE SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY SPONSOR WHOSE
DECISIONS IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE SWEEPSTAKES ARE FINAL AND

ENTRANT’S ELIGIBILITY HAS BEEN VERIFIED AND ENTRANT HAS BEEN NOTIFIED

Except where legally prohibited, each Potential Winner may be required to complete a Declaration
of Eligibility and a Liability and Publicity Release to claim his/her Prize.

any other provision herein may result in the Potential Winner being disqualified, at Sponsor’s sole
discretion, and Sponsor will award the applicable Prize to an alternate winner selected in a random
drawing from among all remaining eligible Entries. Only three (3) alternate drawings will be held,
after which any remaining prizes will remain un-rewarded.
Once a Potential Winner has complied with all of the conditions herein, and his/her eligibility has
been verified, he/she will be declared an official “Winner” of the Sweepstakes.
5. Prizes. Ten (10) Winners shall be awarded the Prize (“Prize”), which consists of a $100

use of Prize not specifically stated herein, shall be the sole responsibility of Winner. Prizes cannot
be substituted, assigned, transferred, or redeemed for cash; however, Sponsor reserves the right to
make equivalent Prize substitutions, at its sole discretion.
If a Prize is returned as undeliverable or is unable to be awarded for any reason, the applicable Prize
will be forfeited. Sponsor will not replace any lost or stolen Prizes or components thereof.
Awarding of a Prize is subject to the Winner’s acceptance of all requisite conditions within these
Official Rules and Winner’s ability and agreement to grant the rights set forth in these Official
Rules and execute the required documentation (if any is required). By accepting a Prize, the
Winner acknowledges and affirms compliance with these Official Rules.

characteristics, in any and all media now or hereafter known, for any purpose, including without
