Amazon Prime Day 2025: How Sellers Can Prepare for the 4-Day Event

Amazon Prime Day 2025 is set to be a transformative event for sellers, expanding from its traditional two-day format to a four-day shopping extravaganza. This extension isn't merely about additional sales hours; it signifies a fundamental shift in strategy, buyer behavior, and platform dynamics. For Amazon sellers, this presents both a significant opportunity and a critical juncture for decision-making.



📅 Key Dates Sellers Can’t Afford to Miss

Amazon’s deadlines are tighter than they look—and missing them means missing the wave.

  • May 5 – Prime-Exclusive Price Discounts submissions open for Prime Day, and will close six hours before the end of the event

  • May 23 – Deadline for Best Deals and Lightning Deals submissions

  • June 9 – FBA inventory cutoff using minimal shipment splits

  • June 18 – FBA cutoff using Amazon-optimized shipment splits


ZonLabs helps clients navigate these timelines with hands-on operational guidance—whether it’s optimizing your deal submissions or planning shipment splits to minimize fees and maximize sell-through.



📦 Inventory Planning for a Longer Event Window

With Prime Day stretched to four days, running out of stock halfway through is a risk you can’t afford. We help clients forecast inventory with precision—factoring in velocity, advertising scale, and post-event momentum.


Our clients use data-backed systems to:

  • Prevent stockouts

  • Reduce overstock waste

  • Align inventory flow with expected PPC volume



💡 Listings, Ads & What Actually Drives Conversions

Success on Prime Day isn’t about showing up—it’s about showing up better than your competition.


At ZonLabs, we:

  • Optimize listings for peak conversion during high-traffic windows

  • Build ad strategies that scale profitably (not wastefully)

  • Monitor and adjust in real time, so clients win hour-by-hour—not just day-by-day


We’ve helped brands 10x Prime Day revenue while reducing ACoS and unlocking better organic ranking. Strategy is good; execution is better.



📈 Prime Day Ends, But Momentum Doesn’t

When the Prime Day rush winds down, the opportunity to build on that momentum is just beginning.


We guide clients through the post-event phase with:

  • Retargeting strategies for new traffic

  • Post-purchase funnel optimization

  • Sales and ad data analysis to inform Q3/Q4 planning



Final Thought

Prime Day 2025 is no longer a sprint—it’s a four-day marathon. For brands that prepare intentionally, this shift means more than extra sales. It’s a chance to capture share, outmaneuver competitors, and set the tone for the rest of the year.


If your team needs help dialing in your Prime Day strategy—from listing optimization to shipping coordination to full-funnel PPC—we’re here to help.
