Description

In this episode, we’re jumping into the Amazon world just like Mario jumps into a new level.

I take you out to the limestone cliffs of Austin, where deep-water bouldering meets deep-data Amazon strategy. And while hanging off a rock face (because why not), I break down the real secret of how products rise through the ranks on Amazon: the Sales Ladder.

You’ll hear how to spot your position in the “level map,” how to analyze the players above you, and how to power-up your listing using reverse ASIN lookups, keyword strike zones, and smarter PPC. It’s basically the difference between Mario without a mushroom… and Mario after the mushroom.

If you're stuck at Rank 8 and dreaming of Rank 4 — this is your episode.

And hey — if you want to climb that ladder even faster, you’ve got an exclusive 25% off Ad Badger software until December 5. A perfect power-up for your Amazon journey.
