    Ep. 89 The Amazon Operator Who Built an Agency Backwards

    What changes when an Amazon agency is run by an operator with capital and inventory on the line? Danan Coleman talks with Tom Cochrane, Founder of Eleviam, about the operator-first approach behind building an Amazon operation before an agency. Tom shares lessons from $5M+ in Amazon inventory: cash flow, forecasting, supplier terms, margins, and staying in stock. He also explains how Eleviam aligns Amazon and TikTok Shop rather than treating them separately. They cover TikTok Shop’s halo effect, Amazon’s role as a shopper trust layer, review-led listing optimization, and “self-defense” ads that protect branded searches from competitors. 🔗 CONNECT WITH TOM COCHRANE Website: https://eleviam.io LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomasgcochrane X: https://x.com/TomCochrane YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EleviamAgency AI Creative Strategist: https://eleviam.io/ai-creative-strategist ⌛ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Meet Tom Cochrane and Eleviam 00:57 Building an agency backwards 04:03 $5M+ in Amazon inventory lessons 07:20 Improving listings one test at a time 10:34 Forecasting inventory for Q4 13:11 The case for omnichannel growth 16:49 What self-defense ads are 19:36 Multichannel mistakes to avoid 22:05 Using reviews and AI to lift conversion 25:50 Automating inventory and account monitoring 27:37 Eleviam’s AI Creative Strategist #TheeComGrowthShow #AmazonSelling #TikTokShop 🔗 KEEP IN TOUCH 🌐 https://ecomgrowth.show 🎧 https://www.youtube.com/@eComGrowthShow 💼 https://www.linkedin.com/in/danancoleman 📸 https://www.instagram.com/ecomgrowthshow 👥 https://www.facebook.com/TheeComGrowthShow 🐦 https://x.com/eComGrowthShow 🎵 https://www.tiktok.com/@ecomgrowthshow 👋 ABOUT DANAN Danan Coleman is an expert in the Amazon space.
