Today’s guest is Adam Shaffer, with more than 30 years of expertise in the field and the rare ability to lead both established businesses and start-ups, Adam speaks about the role of videos and micro-influencers in launching products on Amazon.

Takeaways:

  • If you are going to help a brand or your brand grow, you have to be able to tell its story.
  • You need to have A+ content that answers all the questions that people are asking themselves.
  • You need to tell and show why your brand and product are better than everybody else's without knocking the competition.
  • If you want to sell on Amazon, you better have an inventory, but don't be out of stock.
  • If you are out of stock when people need to buy your product, you drop in the rankings quickly.
  • You need to get your titles right, you should leverage the use of software to find out the best search words to embed in your titles.
  • It is super important to have at least a 15-second promotional video in your gallery.
  • You have to research what people are saying about other products, so you can learn what you need to highlight in your products.
  • You can invest in micro-influencers to promote your product because it is going to get more external traffic to your page.


Quote of the Show:

''Micro-influencers are savvy and popular to some extent about certain types of product categories and they have the following base of 5,000 to 50,000 followers.''

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
