Amazon brands are playing the WRONG game.

Most sellers think Amazon is all about PPC, rankings, and conversions… but the real winners are running TikTok and Meta ads to fuel their Amazon growth.

This is called The Halo Effect—and if you're not using it, you're losing sales to competitors right now.

In this episode, I sit down with Ken Freeman, founder of Full Circle Agency, who has managed over $200M in Amazon revenue for some of the biggest DTC brands, including Hexclad, Ridge Wallet, BK Beauty, and more.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

Hexclad’s $100M+ Amazon Playbook (and why inventory forecasting is a nightmare)
✅ The biggest mistake Amazon sellers make when running ads
✅ Why TikTok & Meta are quietly driving Amazon’s biggest growth
Demand Capture vs. Demand Generation – What most agencies get wrong ✅ How top brands track off-Amazon traffic (and use it to scale faster)


If you're running paid ads and NOT optimizing for Amazon sales... this is a must-listen episode.
