Maven AI should use more aggressive strategy if Buy Box % is 0

Sebastian Scheinert

Currently Maven usually just matches the BB - this is great. Sometimes it underprices other sellers if they are using an underpricing strategy which is fine as well.
However, there are situations where Maven matches the BB and I simply get 0% of the BuyBox due to:
1) Amazon being on the listing
2) Another seller simply owning the BB 100% of the time for some weird reason only Amazon knows.
In these cases it would be nice if Maven would actually "learn"  and switch to a more aggressive strategy to get the BB sometimes.
Currently, I have to manually find these listings and switch to a custom strategy.
Or would this "destroy" many listings leading to a price war if everybody uses Aura (Maven)?

Watch Some of the Videos On Aura repricing strategies. They've talked about this many many times. If you would like a more aggressive strategy then create a rule based strategy and you can make be as aggressive as you want. Maven is designed to find the optimal price for a balance of profit and sales volume. I can guarantee that any other repricer that uses AI where it is more aggressive is doing more than under cutting by a penny. Maybe a better suggestion would be if they could create some "presets" for rule based strategies.

This is personally why I don't use Maven much. I do like a more aggressive approach. But I think the key is, and this was reinforced by Finn during my call, that you can't really expect that one strategy is good for ALL listings. It would be nice and make our lives easier, but I just don't think it's a reality at this point even with AI.

I love love how Maven doesn't tank my listings. But yes, I need it to be just a bit more aggressive sometimes because my items are just not moving. An aggressive liquidation profile would also be great!

Wish this would get upvoted more. This is one of my biggest problems - ASINs that just sit stagnant because they are matching the buy box but not grabbing it.

I am new to Aura and this is probably my biggest complaint. I have listings were I do not get the BB and I thought it would reprice lower until I got the BB. Also, it needs to be more aggressive against Amazon.

I would like several profiles to Maven. The current one, and at least one more that is more aggressive on securing the BB and/or set a BB % goal. I have some good margin replenishable items that I'd rather sell more of cheaper than maximize sales price. Currently I have to choose my own strategy to get sales up as much as I want.
