How to Make Amazon Advertising Profitable in 2025?
Manage episode 472634143 series 2625056
Have you ever had one of those moments where you realize you’ve been looking at something the wrong way this whole time? Yeah, that’s exactly what happened in this episode.
Michael from Ad Badger sat down with Abe Chomali, and they got real about something a lot of Amazon sellers don’t want to admit—just because your ads are bringing in sales doesn’t mean you’re actually making money.
They talked about why ACOS can be super misleading, how some brands are spending more and somehow making less, and why profitability is the real metric that matters. Also, did you know there’s an entire eBay market for failed startup swag? Because I didn’t, and now I can’t stop thinking about it.
We’ll see you in The PPC Den!
