• Amazon's impressions are much more valuable than other advertising platforms.

Quote of the Show:There are two methodologies to measure the success of a listing. You are either in growth mode, where you can operate at a loss with the goal of earning BSR around relevant keyword terms and ranking better. The other aspect is profitability.
