The Agency Uplift Podcast

Ep 7: From Google to Amazon: A PPC Journey, with Igor Nuhanovic of Amazonia PPC

Episode 7

Key Takeaways

  • Igor started his agency by supporting his wife's Google Ads freelance work and transitioned into full-time agency life.
  • Originally focused on Google Ads, Igor made a strategic pivot into Amazon PPC due to its simplicity and higher buying intent.
  • Defining clear roles and responsibilities with his co-founder (his wife) helped their agency scale more effectively.
  • Amazon PPC has grown more complex over time, especially on the analytics side, though it remains simpler than Google Ads.
  • The agency prioritizes honest discovery calls—if a product isn't viable on Amazon, they'll say so upfront.
  • Maintaining a hands-on approach with select PPC accounts keeps Igor connected to evolving strategies and platforms.
  • COVID-19 dramatically impacted their agency, forcing difficult decisions around staff and clients, and highlighting the importance of adaptability.
  • Agencies offering Google PPC should strongly consider adding Amazon PPC services—it’s a logical and accessible extension.
  • On Amazon, category strategy and product positioning are everything—there’s no one-size-fits-all.
  • Most Amazon sellers don’t know their actual profit margins; Igor emphasizes profitability over vanity metrics like revenue or ACoS.
