In this episode, Michael sits down with Sean of Spillover Commerce to talk about thinking beyond Amazon.
They discuss the difference between being an Amazon seller and being a true e-commerce brand. Why does that gap matter? And why not every product — or every brand — should be treated the same across Amazon, Shopify, and Meta.
Sean breaks down when Meta ads actually make sense for Amazon brands, and how off-Amazon traffic can spill over into Amazon sales. They also talk about product-market fit by platform. Why some products work on Amazon but struggle on Meta. And why product iteration often beats endless ad optimization.
If you sell on Amazon and you’re curious about Meta ads, this episode will help you think more clearly about the next step.
We’ll see you in The PPC Den!
