From Frustration to Innovation: The No Ding Car Door Protector's Success Story
Isabel Chen
Content Marketing Manager
In our latest edition of the Seller Spotlight Blog Series, we sat down with the Founder of No Ding, Peter Agamalis to discuss his experience of selling in the Amazon Store.
A “ridiculous idea” turned into an innovative success
Peter's journey began with a clear vision: to protect car doors from dings and dents. Frustrated by constant repairs, he sought a lasting solution. After thorough research, he teamed up with engineers who were initially skeptical but eventually joined him in bringing his idea to life. Peter remembers driving back to the office, his lead engineer's doubts echoing in his mind. Despite this, Peter trusted his instincts and decided to push forward with the product, determined to prove his vision was worth pursuing. Today, No Ding has been nominated for awards such as being a leading contender for the 2023 BridgePoint Group Innovation Awards in Australia.
"When I pitched my idea, the engineers said, it was a ridiculous idea! But I believed in it and proved them wrong. It was the best decision I ever made."

How FBA has become a “Game-Changer!”
Adopting the Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA) program was a game-changer for Peter. FBA has ensured that Peter’s products have great delivery speeds and has helped reduced shipping costs for his business. This strategic move according to Peter enhances the customer experience because of the fast delivery time frame and with a large amount of organic traffic to his page confirms that he has seen increased sales and improved customer satisfaction.
“The beauty of FBA is that it practically costs me nothing to ship to their fulfilment centre unlike the high costs when I handle freight myself."
