Amazon Prime Day 2018 started with a whimper, a dog whimper, due to the site going down causing Amazon to post pages with pictures of dogs on them while they tried to get the site back up. But even with that inauspicious start ( and an estimated $99 million of lost business), PD ’18 was still the biggest selling day in Amazon history – estimated at $4.2 billion by Wedbush Securities Inc. analyst Michael Pachter. And, according to Amazon, small and midsize businesses sold over $1 billion dollars on the platform in the first 24 hours of the company holiday. While those are impressive numbers, my Watching Amazon co-host John Lawson and I dig in a bit deeper on what we thought of the results, and more to the point the lack of results Amazon has provided this time around.
