What does it take to grow a brand on Amazon today?

The rules have changed, and Amazon is now less of a storefront and more of a dynamic ad and data platform.

In this episode, Jason Boyce, Founder and CEO of Avenue7Media, joins host Reid Jackson to share what he’s learned over 22 years in the e-commerce world. From selling as a reseller to building a brand and leading an agency, Jayson explains why success now depends on feeding the algorithm, not pitching to buyers.

He breaks down how streaming TV is driving direct Amazon sales, the problem with locked attributes and UPCs, and why attribution is finally catching up to the promise of connected TV.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why traditional retail rules don’t apply to Amazon

  • How Connected TV can accelerate brand growth

  • What makes Amazon profitable when compared to DTC
