Actualize Freedom | Amazon FBA with Danny Carlson | Private Label Ecommerce Selling on Amazon: Recent Episodes
Danny Carlson
All about Amazon FBA & lifestyle optimization. Danny Carlson interviews millionaire ecommerce sellers, top experts in Facebook Ads, Amazon product ranking, Amazon launches, & more.
Dig deep into the mindsets, tactics, hacks, & experiences of people who have achieved the extraordinary in online business.
Most "automatic" Amazon Ads software is hit or miss, and learning to do it yourself is (lets be honest) BORING.
But sellers can't just ignore the most powerful ads platform to sell more products, right?
Brand owners should understand Amazon Ads well enough to hire someone, and know if they're doing a good job.
Otherwise, your entire revenue is left in the hands of your ads manager.
I've literally audited an ads account managed by another agency that had ZERO changes in more than a year!
In this episode of the Actualize Freedom Podcast, I grill Mina Elias about the top things non-technical Amazon sellers must know in order to effectively outsource their ads.

If you sell products on Amazon & you don't know the math behind your conversion rate, you're definitely dumping profit in the garbage.
In this video I'm going to show you in simple terms how much more profit you could be making with very small conversion rate improvements.
If your competitors are doing even half of what I'm going to show you & you're NOT... over time, they will win.
Do any entrepreneurs actually like bookkeeping?
I did meet an Amazon seller in Vancouver who did, but he's a freak.
Unfortunately, this fear of books often causes HUGE financial problems.
Especially for ecommerce businesses that deal with long cash cycles, payment processing fees, and thousands of transactions.
I sat down my friend Nathan Hirsch to ask him everything ecom entrepreneurs MUST know to avoid a cash flow crisis.
He outlined how to find & work with an ecom bookkeeper and understand your brand's profitability at a glance.
Don't wait for a cash flow crisis to learn how to interpret your books.
Want the video? Comment the number from 1-10 that best represents how much you hate bookkeeping and I'll DM it to you.

Amazon businesses are among the most "sellable" types of business in 2022. Huge investment firms are acquiring multiple brands per month at 6, 7, and 8 figure payouts.
But lots of the aggregators have been laying off employees and slowing down acquisitions.
Have the golden days of selling Amazon accounts passed us by?
According to Greg Elfrink, yes and no. A good Amazon account will still get a crazy multiple, but one that's making these mistakes will have a harder time selling.
Unfortunately, a lot of Amazon sellers don't realize they're cannibalizing their future business sale multiple.
In this episode of the Actualize Freedom Podcast, we dive into everything you need to ensure your business can sell for the most money possible, no matter what the market is doing.

Crowdfunding isn't just for crazy inventions anymore. My buddy Vance has been doing six-figure launches with regular products easily available on Amazon.
Most e-commerce brand owners misunderstand the REAL value of Kickstarter. It's evolved a lot since 2009.
Everyone from small startups to big-name brands are building massive audiences through their campaigns. Audiences they own and can sell to forever (unlike Amazon customers).
They're launching products with zero risk and taking the strain off their cash flow by getting paid FIRST instead of 45-90 day cash cycles.
In e-commerce, cash is king, and Vance's $7 million Kickstarter strategy is the most effective way I've seen to free more of it up.
This episode could literally save you from bankruptcy, and at the very least will give you a massive leg up on your competitors on Amazon.
Watch/ listen to the podcast here:
Kenji Exclusive: Kickstarter Launch for Amazon Sellers Workshop (free)I was so impressed during my conversation with Vance, I convinced him to put together a special workshop just for you guys.
It's a 1-off live workshop going into Kickstarter launches specifically for Amazon Sellers. I'll be there, Vance will be there, and we're encouraging interaction from you guys as well.
Those who need more hands-on help will have the opportunity to work further with Vance, but this is not a sales pitch-loaded workshop, everyone will walk away with super valuable strategies they can implement themselves to make their own six-figure Kickstarter launch.

Why do shoppers buy or NOT buy your product on the Amazon marketplace? Most FBA sellers have some ideas, but they don’t really know.
Truth is, most shoppers aren’t even sure why themselves!
There is so much information being processed subconsciously that if you as a seller don’t understand it, you’ll miss out on thousands per month in sales.
This presentation was originally given by myself (Danny Carlson) at White Label Expo London 2022, and I’ve recorded a higher quality version for all of you in internet land which you can check out!
What we’ll cover* How to capture the attention of Amazon shoppers so you can sell products * How to KEEP that attention until they complete purchase * Actionable steps you can take to improve sales on your product listings
Why do Amazon Shoppers Buy? (or not)It’s important to get inside the mind of your customers so you can optimize your Amazon listings to sell more effectively.
- They don’t necessarily know WHY they buy. It’s based on subconscious thoughts.
- They often buy on gut feeling
- Processing dozens of data points subconsciously
- There are different types of shoppers that make buying decisions differently
- Product expert vs. naive
- Readers vs. Visual
- Insta-buy vs. compare to the death
Don’t exclude any of these customer types. Have great images, copywriting, videos, etc to cover them all.
Visuals are Processed 60,000 x Faster in the Brain Than TextImages are the most important part of your Amazon listing optimization.
- It takes your brain just 13 milliseconds to process 1 img
- 2 seconds of viewing an image is equivalent to reading 30,000 wpm
- My reading speed is 400 wpm…
You can SHOW an incredible amount of information much faster than you can explain it using text or audio.
The Brain Evolved with Images, Language is New* Written language is only 5000 years old. The brain is not naturally evolved to use language. * You have to learn it for years as a child before you’re good at it, but visuals are understood by toddlers. * Visuals are understood across languages
Conclusion: Show all key product info just within the images But don’t exclude the readers!
How to capture the attention of more Amazon shoppers It doesn’t matter how good your product page is if no one clicks on it. * You are selling the click, not the product * Increasing Click Through Rate* by just 0.1% can translate to $1000s * Be the best option relative to the competition
Main Image Optimization for Amazon ProductsYour main image on Amazon is your visual first impression, and the better it is, the more shoppers will click on your product instead of competitors.
- Clearly communicate what the product is. Ask “how can I make it visually obvious?”
- Strikingly stand out when put next to other options on search results
- Follow Amazon’s image guidelines (optional)
- Very bright, professional studio lighting
- Fill the maximum amount of given space
Title Optimization on Amazon ListingsYour title on Amazon is also important to your click-through rate, but should also be well optimized for the right search terms.
- Clearly communicate the most key info about your product
- Have your main keyword phrases in exact match, but not at the expense of making key info difficult to find within a messy title
Reviews and Price: Do They Matter?They definitely do! I won’t go into that here because as Amazon sellers, we have less control over these than we do on the images and keywords for example.
Just keep in mind that the more reviews, the better, and the better your price is compared to other options, the better.
How to KEEP Customer Attention Until They BuyOtherwise known as “conversion rate.” The higher the percentage of shoppers that view your product page and end up buying, the higher it will be.
- You as a brand owner have a skewed view of what’s cool about your product (No one cares your water bottle can also be a paperweight.)
- Don’t waste attention spans on anything that’s not the key info that will give them the confidence your product is the one right for them
- Use all the tools available: A+ Content description, Amazon listing video, Amazon Brand Storefront, Amazon product photography
Instead of having all white background images with a bunch of text, how can you SHOW this information without words?
- Icons
- Lifestyle images
Make them intentional and focused on showing Key Info
Key Takeaways* Just one of these things can increase sales permanently * Every time you shop on Amazon, analyze your own thoughts * Know your customer better than they know themselves

About Daniel Fernandez, CEO of AMZ CleverBorn in Lima, Peru. Started a career in sales at a very young age. Later moved to the US and started working for Apple. In 2015 left a promising career in Silicon Valley to follow his dream of growing his own company. Found early success in the Amazon Selling industry and it was then that AMZ Clever, a full-service Amazon management agency, was born. In 2017 moved to China to grow a brand presence in Asia. In early 2020 moved to Bali, Indonesia where he lived the “tropical nomad” lifestyle. Daniel has spoken at several E-commerce and Amazon Selling events in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Indonesia, Netherlands, and Canada. After several successful years in Asia, he now lives in Virginia, USA where he currently runs a 7-figure agency with team members around the world.
We've all heard how combined, Amazon's European marketplaces are equal in size to Amazon US. That's no small amount of revenue up for grabs.
But you've likely also heard horror stories.
- 20% taxes
- Strict customs regulations
- Stuck shipments
- GDPR, and other acronyms that give us headaches.
That's what has kept thousands of successful American brands from expanding internationally.
But if it's really so difficult to expand to Amazon Europe, why are so many brands of all sizes finding success there?
From 8 figure supplements brands to 1 product startups, Amazon Sellers are increasing their revenue by selling the same products to more people in more countries. And it's probably easier than you've been led to believe.
We brought on expert in all things international e-commerce Rael Lowenthal to give us the playbook for quick, easy, and low-risk expansion from US to EU marketplaces.
In this episode of the Actualize Freedom Podcast:
- How to test European markets by risking less than $1000
- Why "good debt" is a key pillar for fast-growing Amazon sellers
- How to avoid dumb mistakes with legal compliance in multiple foreign countries
- VAT broken down into easily understood terms (for non-lawyers, ex. regular people)
You can reach out to Rael and his team at zee.co to inquire about help with anything to do with expansion to European marketplaces on Amazon. VAT setup, importer of record (IOR), customs compliance, stuck shipments, or international freight.
What is An Importer of Record?In simple terms, it's a government's way of ensuring that every foreign brand has a domestic company that will take responsibility for ensuring proper compliance with local import regulations.
You can't import into many countries in Europe without a local company acting as your importer of record or IOR.
It makes sense when you think about all the black-hat Chinese sellers who were blatantly ignoring VAT regulations. The governments have little power over bad-actors in other countries. By making an IOR mandatory, there's at least a local company who must take responsibility for illegal activity if the company they are representing is breaking laws or failing to pay their fair share.
What is VAT?VAT is short for Value Added Tax, and is the big scary 20% (ish) tax that Amazon sellers have nightmares about. At first it sounds complicated, but once you understand how it works it's not as bad as it seems.
It varies by country and we highly recommend working with a company to help you ensure correct compliance.
"The European Union value-added tax (or EU VAT) is a value added tax on goods and services within the European Union (EU). The EU's institutions do not collect the tax, but EU member states are each required to adopt a value added tax that complies with the EU VAT code. Different rates of VAT apply in different EU member states, ranging from 17% in Luxembourg to 27% in Hungary."

There's few feelings more helpless than going out of stock on Amazon while your inventory sits in a Chinese port.

✅ A creative, time-saving shipping strategy most people don't know is an option

Did you know that Amazon's EU marketplaces together are equal in sales to the US market now?
The US is still king, but Amazon is growing much faster in their foreign marketplaces & it's becoming impossible to ignore.
But so many brand owners make embarrassing mistakes localizing their listings. Don't make the mistake so many Chinese sellers make with poor translations, weird wording, and assuming their images will work well overseas.
Even between the US, UK, and Australia the spelling of many words is different, making keyword localization super important.
The conversion rate difference between localized and non-localized listings can mean thousands, even tens of thousands per month more revenue.
In this episode of the Actualize Freedom Podcast, host Danny Carlson digs into Omar Angri's deep knowledge of Amazon Listing Localization from his agency Margin Business. They've been focused specifically on this problem for years and have a team of more than 20 tackling the issue.

Can spiritual practices help you grow your business faster?
If you're like most online entrepreneurs I know, you've dabbled in spiritual practices like meditation to help grow your business.
Gone are the days when all things spiritual are dismissed as "crazy hippie stuff" and today it's rare to find an Amazon seller who doesn't have some type of spiritual practice.
Personally, spiritual development has been a key part of growing as an entrepreneur. I simply couldn't have broken through my mental barriers and insecurities to grow a 7 figure company without it.
In this episode of the Actualize Freedom podcast, we're thinking outside the "Amazon FBA" box and diving into spirituality with Ryan Cropper, a YouTuber with a 200k subscriber channel who teaches about advanced spiritual techniques.
Even though this podcast is about Amazon, when my favorite spiritual YouTuber arrived in Bali I couldn't pass up the opportunity to interview him at my villa!

Driving external traffic to Amazon products has always been tough, but in 2021, it's practically a requirement to succeed.
Manychat bots have new restrictions, Facebook Ads is losing effectiveness, and Amazon Attribution has been released to the masses.
So what is the best external traffic strategy for Amazon in 2021?
Alex Czechowski from Helium 10 has been neck deep in this transformation, and part of the team building their new tool that is studying this evolution.
On this episode of the Actualize Freedom Podcast with Danny Carlson, we go into what the most effective strategies are today for boosting the visitors to your product pages, ultimately leading to more sales.
You don't need me to tell you that launching a new product to page 1 on Amazon is getting harder and harder these days.
Not only is the Amazon algorithm constantly getting more and more sophisticated...
But the increasingly large number of Amazon sellers are getting craftier as well.
What works today might be obsolete 6 months down the line...
Thankfully, Brendon Fields joins us on this episode of the podcast who is an expert on product launch strategies.

Ask any business owner what is the number 1 issue when growing your business...
All of them will say: lack of capital. 💰
For Amazon Sellers, there are a variety of options for people looking to get funding...
Loans, credit cards, factoring... heck even Amazon itself has some options they encourage people to look at.
But, there are are BIG problems with these traditional methods...
- High-interest payments. ❌
- Large monthly payments required (even during bad months). ❌
- You may have to give up some equity. ❌
Enter Accrue Me.
Founded by Rob Stanley and Don Henig, Accrue Me is an Amazon funding company that eliminates a lot of these headaches.
Instead of collecting monthly payments or charging interest, Accrue Me makes money by earning a percentage of your profits.
"But what if I don't make a profit this month?", you ask.
In that case, Accrue Me earns nothing. They only make money when you make money.
The best part? Only pay when you want to. 😲
In this episode, Rob and Don walk Danny through their entire business model, how they got started, and the criteria they use to evaluate whether or not they will invest in an Amazon business.
As entrepreneurs, things usually don't go according to plan at the beginning... 😔
And when nothing is going your way, it's tough to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
"Is this journey even worth it?", you ask yourself.
Now imagine you were half a million dollars in debt, and you had failed 10+ different businesses up till this point...
You've never had a real job...
You have zero savings...
And your partner has left you, writing you off as a lost cause.
This is exactly the roadblock Jeff Lerner faced.
He knew he had to do something to get himself out of that hole... and fast.
So that's when he turned to starting online businesses...
Fast forward to today, and he now owns not 1...
Not 2...
But multiple 8-figure businesses! 💰
None of this would have happened if he had given up back then.
It just goes to show...
You've never fully failed until you've given up! 😤
In this podcast, Jeff spills the details to exactly how he pulled himself back up...
As well as the mindset needed to really succeed as an entrepreneur.
Launching and ranking a new product can be one of the most daunting tasks on Amazon.
You've got your standard giveaways, Manychat, PPC...
All of which are not cheap and take a while to show results.
But what if there was a way to launch without having to rely on these slow and expensive methods? 🤔
Jordan West does just that--he launches new products all the time, consistently bringing in over $100k+ in 24 hours after release.
In fact, for one launch... he sold $250k in under 24 hours!! 😲
And you know what the kicker is?
He did it all without spending a 💰 dime 💰 on ads, or having any discounts!
Want to find out his secret strategy? 🤫
Check out the latest episode of the Actualize Freedom Podcast, where Jordan goes in depth about his entrepreneurial background, his expertise in Facebook ads, and most importantly...
🚀 His secret strategy to selling $100k+ within 24 hours of launching! 🚀
Ever since Kevin Urrutia was young, he always knew he wanted to build something.
After learning programming to build his own websites, he wanted to surround himself with like-minded people to expedite his growth. 🌱
So, he ended up getting a job at the Mecca of coding--Silicon Valley.
Now, most people would have called it quits right there...
"I made it! I got a high-paying job in an in-demand field... what more could I want?"
But Kevin was just getting started! 🔥🔥🔥
From there he went on to start multiple 7+ figure businesses, (including some on Amazon), one after the other.
Along the way, however, he made many mistakes... 😨
But each time, he managed to bounce back and learn from them!
After all, our biggest lessons come from our biggest mistakes. 💪
In this podcast, Kevin condenses years and years of learning into one 30 minute episode...
In it he shares his wisdom about:
- When to let someone else run your company.
- How to hire the best people (step by step criteria).
- How to adjust practices as your company grows.

Scaling a business takes constant reinvestment, & this rings even more true with Amazon FBA ecommerce brands.
Lack of access to capital can mean the death a new brand, or at least greatly slow it's growth. When an Amazon business is really taking off is exactly when you need capital the most!
Jack McColl is a serial entrepreneur that has grown multiple 6 & even 7 figure businesses using capital that he acquired through "debt hacking."
Basically he games the credit system in a way where he has more than $300k in lines of credit and doesn't pay any interest!

Including an Amazon FBA brand that will hit 7 figures in it's very first year.
Does TikTok marketing work for Amazon? Well if 10,000 unit sales in 1 day means it “works” then yes.
Using TikTok influencers to promote your Amazon FBA products is totally uncharted territory, and most brands aren’t using TikTok at all.
But Scott Needham has sold more than $350 million on Amazon over his career, and is now benefitting from a viral TikTok with more than 2 million views that had his warehouse staff working overtime just to ship the orders.
How did Scott deal with this insane volume? And what is he going to do to replicate this in the future?

Cracking the code on Amazon PPC Ads can be the difference between page one domination & liquidating your inventory.
Reality is, Amazon is closer to winner take all than "sharing the love" & nowhere is that more apparent than the super-competitive "health supplements" category.
Mina Elias is a 7 figure Amazon Seller that has paid his dues in the Amazon Ads arena., and in this episode of the Actualize Freedom Podcast he shares what he learned from spending thousands on high CPC ads for supplements.
While most Amazon Sellers stay far away from competitive categories, Mina Elias jumped in head fist, testing and tweaking until he found a formula that works.

Amazon FBA gurus love to post screenshots of their revenue numbers, but without good margins that screenshot is nothing but a stroke of the ego.
Luckily there are tech companies constantly innovating and enabling more efficiencies for Amazon sellers. One of those companies is Payoneer, and Ben Stein comes on to talk about their innovations that allow Amazon FBA sellers to keep their margins higher.
Chances are you're paying more than you have to for foreign currency wires, international payments to manufacturers, or receiving payments from Amazon. Traditional banks are almost always more expensive.

Why on earth would I release a video of my direct competitor on my channel? Because I don't have a scarcity mindset!
Kamaljit Singh is a fellow Canadian Amazon agency owner and shares this abundance mindset.
Over the years I've gained so much from making friends with my direct competing company founders, and our market is always growing.

Can you add value to your Amazon FBA products by pairing it with a cheap smartphone app?
More brands are realizing the power of connecting physical products to the digital world, and how a basic app can be a unique differentiator in the e-commerce market.
Jonny Bradley is an Entrepreneur, Author, and E-commerce Expert, & helps ordinary people create extraordinary things one product at a time.
In this episode of the Actualize Freedom Podcast, we dive deep on Jonny's experience launching a product that had an app, why it took much longer than expected, and his entire costs & exact product that he launched.
If you are considering creating a Shopify store to supplement your Amazon sales, you're probably wondering which Shopify apps you should use.
Derric Haynie is a professional Shopify software stack consultant and tells us his best recommendations for:
- Abandoned Cart Automations
- SMS Marketing Automations
- Shopify Themes
- Conversion Rate Boosting Apps
And everything you need to set up your Shopify store.
The world economy is on the brink of collapse, and Amazon sellers are worried. Why are some brands thriving while others struggle to survive?
Sure lots of it depends on whether you're selling survival or outdoor recreational items, but as Andy Arnott points out, there are other things Amazon sellers can do as well.
With his wealth of knowledge as a long time Amazon seller and his mass of data from his software company Seller SEO, he shares his best tips for recession proofing your Amazon business.
Relying on Amazon as your only traffic source is scary and dangerous.
Paul Easton shares why building your own store is NOT the first step, and what you should be focusing on first to diversify your Amazon traffic.
Step 1: Product Inserts
You design them quickly in Canva using pre-made templates. Depending on the product, different incentives will have the best conversion rate.
Warranties work really well for some products, but make little sense for others. Or entering to win a $200 gift card every month can work really well.
Step 2: Setup Email Marketing Automation
The most basic way is to setup a free Mailchimp account, and just use the template landing page for email opt in from your Amazon product inserts.
For a more robust system, Danny uses Active Campaign, but it's more expensive and only makes sense if you have a larger list.
Step 3: Should You Use Manychat / Facebook Messenger?

Getting reviews for your Amazon products is getting more and more difficult, & techniques evolve.
Gone are the days when you could buy Amazon reviews through shady Amazon review sites and get away with it. White hat is the way to go!
Michael Melgar and Tygh Walters have an e-commerce customer service company Seller Smile. Their team manages reviews and feedback for large brands, and they're always up to date with changes in Amazon's TOS policies.
A recent change is Amazon has been more hesitant to remove neutral or negative seller feedback. It used to be easy to request feedback removal when it's clearly a product review, not seller feedback, but now it's hit or miss.
It's now recommended to continue opening cases at least 3 times before giving up.
Amazon buyer-seller messaging has tightened in recent years as well, with many sellers removing themselves from everything but essential order update emails, meaning they will not receive your review request email.
This means that excellent customer service is more important now then ever to keep your reviews coming in, and stop the negative ones from happening (or reverse them).
In this episode, Tygh Walters talks about the 3 fundamentals to provide good Amazon customer experience:
- Be fast and correct. Speed of reply and accuracy of information.
- Be Friendly. Use language that can only be read as polite.
- Be Proactive. Try to think of what the customer would ask next, then provide that answer.
It’s essential to make the customer feel emotionally engaged, using emojis and asking about their purchase to make them feel valued.
18:36 - Tygh Walters talks about some amazing tips for how to manage any size or type of E-commerce business with loads of activities taking place every day and dozens of messages popping up in the email.
- Running a business is not a one-person job.
- Hire multiple people to perform similar activities.
- Provide constant training.
- Have expert guidance sessions.
- The agents should stay up to date with changes taking place in the inventory and business.
- Have important information in one central location, plus more.
Ben Donovan is a UK-based family man and Amazon Seller & YouTuber who focuses heavily on building a brand with quality products.
Here's some of what you can expect on this episode of the Actualize Freedom Podcast.
4 Steps To Building a Brand
- Find a market you can improve on
- Source a quality, unique product to bring to that market
- Know how to sell
- Build systems, processes, and a team around that brand so you can focus on steps 1 & 2.
ANKER is Ben Donovan's Best Example of a Strong Brand
This is a 9 figure Amazon Seller that grew on Amazon first before branching to other channels. Their branding is great because they only sell products of high quality at a good price, and their branding is consistent across all products.
How to Build Your Brand Around Your Life
Set aside time to create systems and train team members with any new profits. This is the only way to avoid the trap of becoming the bottleneck that's stopping your business from growing.

Will Christensen is the master of Amazon FBA business automations, and founder of the company Data Automation, and he shares his experience in this Actualize Freedom Podcast Episode!
What things should you NOT automate?
Will Christensen's rule is to never automate something you haven't done yourself at least 5 times. If you haven't' tested a process, it's likely you haven't fixed the "bugs" in your process.
What things can you automate in an Amazon FBA Business?
Will first will Google "how do I automate X process?" and see how other people have figured out how to automate it. Rather than trying to figure it out from scratch, it's likely other businesses have already solved your exact problem.
What exactly can Amazon Sellers automate?
The most common one is Amazon business reports & metrics consolidated into one single report with excel formulas to give you better information to grow your sales.
Zapier is a powerful automation platform that Will's company Data Automation often uses to create business process automations without using any code. It's simple enough for non techy people to set up powerful automations and replace manual tasks or the need to pay a virtual assistant to do it.

Conference Link: https://europeansellerconference.com/
The European Seller Conference is coming up in less than 2 weeks in Prague, is it worth it?
Personally I can say the value I've gotten from Amazon Seller events far outweighs the costs of tickets and flights.
All it takes it 1 valuable new business relationship with another seller, Amazon service provider, or 1 "golden nugget" shared over a group dinner to have a positive ROI.
Augustas Kligys, Founder of European Seller Conference gives us details on who the conference is for, what types of people will be there, and a few real life examples of key business partnerships that started at his past events.
If you are looking to level up your network with an Amazon Seller conference this year, the European Seller Conference may be for you.
Sean Smith is near the top of my list of who I trust for Amazon PPC strategy.
I've been through a lot of Amazon PPC courses and in my opinion, his PPC & AMS Accelerator with Taylor Benterud is the best one.
Software automation for Amazon PPC optimization is great, but Sean Smith is a big advocate for using bulk files to smooth Amazon Ads workflow.
Everything from keyword bid adjustments & negative matches to uploading full campaigns for multiple products with thousands of keywords can be done without software much faster than using Amazon Seller Central's campaign manager.
Amazon Sponsored Ads is getting more competitive, so creating an effective Amazon ppc management strategy is going to be essential in 2020 and beyond.
Sean also talks about Amazon video ads and how many accounts are now getting access to this tool, and what new Amazon marketing strategies are coming soon to Amazon sellers and brands with larger adspend.
