Customer Reviews
Best Amazon PPC Podcast I have listened to so far
I’ve never written a podcast review before, but felt compelled to share my experience with the PPC Den podcast. I first became aware of it in referral from another Amazon seller and since that time a few weeks ago, I have BINGED on the 2023 episodes so far. The information is so actionable and relatable. Michael and his guests speak about relevant issues I am seeing in my campaigns daily. Kudos Michel and team. I appreciate your effort to give this content away for free!
Great PPC content
I had been PPC adjacent for a few years but realized I needed structures help when launching my own brand. I picked my way through podcasts as I went through first few months and it was hugely helpful - took frequent notes.
Helpful
I appreciate that the guys share smart strategies that are aligned with long-term growth.
