What's Up With Amazon

Have you ever had a long-time associate that you thought you knew only to find out one day that there were things about that person that you didn’t know? That recently happened to me with Amazon. I’ve used Amazon for several years to order things online. I was shopping on Amazon the other day for a graduation gift when I decided to explore the website. That’s when I realized that there were things about Amazon that I didn’t know.
I discovered that Amazon offers many programs to its consumers. So, I decided to take a short break from the articles on WordPress to highlight Amazon’s programs. Amazon has something for everyone which is one of the reasons that they’re so successful. The following is a list of Amazon’s programs with a brief description of each. Follow the program link for detailed information on each program. You’re bound to find one or more programs that will fit your needs.
