Taking a more proactive approach, Mike and Dave talk about the measures they’ve taken to prepare for less-than-ideal market conditions in this Brand Report episode.
As we’ve mentioned in our previous episodes, Dave and I spent a good chunk of June in the Philippines spending time with our employees there.
We also made good headway on the content website we are launching this month–yes, this month! After several setbacks, I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.
For me, I worked on improving my margins, which included taking out an Amazon loan and fully transitioning to AGL. It’s definitely a tedious process, but worth it.
If you listened to our May Brand Report podcast, you’ll recall that one of Dave’s brands had an IPI score teetering below the required threshold. He’s got an update on that one.
Let’s get into our latest Brand Report, shall we? Check out the highlights from this episode:
That’s it for our June Brand Report. After several delays, I’m so happy to say we’re almost at the finish line. We can’t wait to finally show you our new content website in the next few days!
In the meantime, you can check out the blog counterpart of the Brand Report here if you want a more detailed account of what we did last month.

Here’s a reality check: there’s more to life than just money. Amazon seller and aspiring personal development coach Jonathan Jesper shares his story of grit and resilience.
Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, I am very much aware of how unstable and unpredictable life in the business can be. The journey is never linear.
Fellow Vegasite Jonathan Jesper, who has never had a job, has been an entrepreneur his whole life – and he’s no stranger to failure.
He lived in a van straight out of high school; went to college and then dropped out; and eventually, as he described, “failed into ecommerce.”
Jonathan’s life as an entrepreneur is quite the story. From selling flowers at high school graduations to running his own Amazon business, he certainly knows the hustle.
Check out the highlights from this episode:
That was a great and insightful conversation, Jonathan. Thank you for coming on the podcast. This episode is a reminder that it’s important to reevaluate what success means to us.

The results are in! In this episode, Mike and Dave unpack their recently concluded Amazon Consumer Behavior survey, which includes a shocker you’ll want to know.
Over the past few months, we’ve been working on a survey to pick the brain of today’s Amazon consumer a little bit – to better understand their purchasing habits.
What pushes a consumer to check out an item? Which matters more: star rating or number of reviews? With the findings, we hope sellers can leverage them to improve their strategies.
We also found out something that we’ve somewhat always suspected. You’ll want to stick around till the end. It’s quite the bombshell. But don’t skip!
These are the highlights from this episode:

We hope you learned a thing or two from our survey. Of course, I can’t end this without recognizing the hard work of our team. This would not have been possible without them.
Mind you, we only covered a small portion of the survey, so if you want to see the full report, you can check out www.ecomcrew.com/amazonreport.

According to Jungle Scout’s new report, Amazon seems to be making very good money on advertising. Mike unpacks the report with Jungle Scout's Jake Corkin.
Personally, I’ve been using Jungle Scout for several years and I’ve found it to be a great tool for any ecommerce business.
We’re also grateful to have worked with them as affiliates for a while now. We’ve even had their CEO on the podcast.
For this episode, we have their Director of Product, Jake Corkin. Aside from his full-time position at Jungle Scout, he also sells on Amazon as a side business.
Just recently, Jungle Scout released an Amazon Advertising Report for 2022 and I thought it would be great to dive into this with Jake.
Here are the highlights from this episode.

Mike is back with EcomCrew’s podcast manager Ben for a light yet informative Q&A session on keeping profits high and costs low amid inflation.
After recording this episode, I thought it would be nice to have Ben be in front of the camera more often and be a regular on the podcast.
In this new Q&A series, Ben will be asking me a bunch of questions on how to run a successful ecommerce business and I will do my best to answer them as exhaustively as I can.
This episode is all about costs and profitability. With Covid-related challenges to consider and inflation in full swing, we thought this was a highly important subject to kick things off.
Here are the highlights of this episode.
