    199. Why Your Amazon Page Isn’t Converting with Daniela Bolzmann

    In this episode of Mastering eCommerce Marketing, host Eitan Koter sits down with Daniela Bolzmann, Founder of Mindful Goods, to talk about what actually moves the needle on Amazon today. Daniela works with brands around the world on Amazon creative, SEO, and conversion, and she spends her days testing what works and what does not. The conversation opens with how Daniela thinks about business, from abundance and gratitude to building systems that support long term growth. From there, they get into the real work. Daniela breaks down the Amazon funnel in plain terms, starting with getting found through titles and bullets, then earning the click with main images, and finally converting shoppers once they land on the listing. She explains why so many brands still treat Amazon like Shopify, and how that mistake shows up in missed sales. They also talk about testing, creative refresh cycles, and how competition reacts when something starts working. This episode feels like two operators comparing notes on how Amazon actually works right now.

    198. How To Launch A Beauty Brand with David Feuerstein

    On this episode of Mastering eCommerce Marketing, Eitan Koter welcomes David Feuerstein, Founder and CBO of CREATOR, a company rethinking how beauty brands are made. David shares how CREATOR makes it possible for creators, influencers, and DTC brands to launch real beauty products without massive upfront inventory or long development cycles. What used to take months and large checks can now start with small runs that grow based on demand. Eitan and David talk through why beauty has lagged behind apparel when it comes to on-demand production, and what changes when manufacturing, storefronts, and sales data are finally connected. David explains how this approach helps brands avoid overstocking, missed sales, and cash tied up in warehouses. They also cover how AI supports better forecasting, smoother production planning, and smarter marketing decisions, especially when campaigns take off faster than expected. Along the way, David shares stories from working with creators and DTC brands that started with a few hundred units and scaled to tens of thousands, all without switching factories or rebuilding their supply chain. If you’re thinking about launching a beauty brand, expanding an existing one, or just want to understand how creators are moving beyond affiliate links into real ownership, this episode sets the stage.

    197. Email Marketing Secrets Every Shopify Brand Needs with Jordan Gordon

    In this episode of Mastering eCommerce Marketing, Eitan Koter welcomes Jordan Gordon, Head of Email Retention and CRO at Pilot House Digital, and the host of the World’s Best Email Retention Podcast. Jordan shares how he found his way into email early on, why he stayed focused on it, and how that focus turned into a long-term advantage. The conversation centers on one simple idea. Brands cannot scale efficiently if retention is treated as an afterthought. They talk through what Jordan sees when auditing Shopify and Klaviyo accounts, how email revenue compares to paid media, and why the cheapest customer is often the one you already have. Jordan explains how email supports ads behind the scenes, improves return on spend, and creates room to grow without increasing costs. On the CRO side, Jordan walks through how he looks at funnels, where most sites lose momentum, and why homepage and product page paths matter more than most teams expect. He also explains why simplifying choices and highlighting hero products often works better than complex redesigns. They close with a look at the inbox today, why automation matters more than constant campaigns, and how brands can stay visible without wearing out their list.
