    MARKETING 
    I don't really see a lot of information out there about this topic. I did a quick Google search and nothing really came up. I figured that it might be worth starting a thread about this because I'm sure that someone out there will be, or is in the same boat as me. I'm curious about the process...

    [Amazon Question] Remarketing

    MARKETING 
    One thing that I don't like about Amazon is that I can't capture the email address of a buyer. It doesn't seem like that's ever going to be possible. And I guess I'm okay for now because I can build my list in other ways. But lately I have found myself wondering if there are ways to drive...

    Facebook Targeting Optimization Question

    SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    I have been running Facebook ads to an offer for cold traffic. My audience is about 450k, to be honest, I kind of screwed up my initial targeting when I first started, but I don't want to pause everything just yet.

    Amazon Variations Question

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I'm a little confused about something. If I have a product line with 5 variations of the same product, then does it make more sense to create a different listing for each product? Or does it make sense to make one listing with variations? Example I have a product that comes in different...

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Can't find the answer to my question anywhere. I know that Facebook is against popups and stuff that creates a bad experience.

    Amazon Product Not Appearing

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I'm having some trouble with Amazon. I searched all over Google and contacted support. Amazon support hasn't been helpful at all.
