SMART MARKETER
About this episode

Is it too late to make money on Amazon? Good question. The opportunity is different, but some would argue it’s better! If you feel you missed the Amazon Gold rush, this episode is for you because Amazon is still 38 to 50% of all e-commerce. Brett Curry, Amber Norell (Director of Amazon, OMG Commerce), and Trenton Bodenbach (Amazon Advertising lead, OMG Commerce) discuss the two paths you can take on this mega platform (and what your focus should ultimately be). 

“Brett Curry and OMG Commerce are hands down the best in the business when it comes to Amazon ads and channel management. They’ve helped us grow our Amazon business to over 15% of our total yearly revenue (from $0 to $6 million)” Ezra Firestone.

This episode is an excerpt from Smart Marketer’s course, Smart Amazon ECommerce. You can check that out here, https://smartmarketer.com/smart-amazon-ecommerce/.
