Amazon Annual Vendor Negotiations: How to Prepare and Negotiate Like a Winner in 2027

November 3, 2026 @ 11am EST

 

The average vendor spends 3.1 months negotiating their Amazon AVN, to get only a brief reprieve before it's time to start preparing for the next round!

 

It's that time of year again. Join Claire McBride of Stratably and Martin Heubel of Consulterce for a practical, strategy-first session on what "AVN Winners" did differently in 2026, plus the broader negotiation strategies and tactics that drive successful outcomes.

 

Drawn from Consulterceโ€™s and Stratablyโ€™s combined experience across hundreds of AVNs and their third-annual Amazon AVN Benchmark Study of 227 1P vendors, theyโ€™ll share actionable insights and practical strategies that any vendor can apply to their 2027 AVN.

 

Youโ€™ll leave with:

  • What separated AVN Winners from the rest of the market in 2026, and how to apply those same moves in your next negotiation
  • What to benchmark ahead of your 2027 AVN, and how to use that data credibly with your vendor manager
  • Common AVN mistakes to avoid making in 2027
  • And more

We'll also leave plenty of time for audience Q&A, so you can get your specific questions answered.

 

This is a must-attend session for any Amazon leader tasked with navigating AVNs. Regardless of how your 2026 AVN closed, youโ€™ll leave with a concrete plan to negotiate like a winner in 2027.
