The problem

Most Amazon agencies have never sold on Amazon.

  • 01The founder sold you. A junior you've never met runs you.
  • 02The report says “14 campaigns adjusted.” It doesn't say what that made you.
  • 03ROAS looks fine. Your margin says otherwise.

So they manage ads. Nobody runs the Amazon business.

Who fixes it

Not that Michael Jordan. The Amazon one.

In 2017 Michael left his corporate job and started selling on Amazon himself. He has sold $300M+ since then, built a multi-7-figure brand of his own, and he still sells today.

Then he built a 200-person agency's Amazon department from one client into $300M+ a year managed. This year he bought that division and took it independent. FTR is that team, working on Amazon only.

He's made every call you pay an agency to make — with his own inventory on the line.

“Build like you intend to dominate, not just survive.”

Most agencies give you one account manager. We give you an Amazon team.

No one person can know everything about Amazon. That's why hiring one in-house generalist rarely works. When you hire FTR, a whole team of specialists plugs into your business.

Most agencies and in-house: one stressed person alone in a basement juggling PPC, SEO, creative, catalog, DSP and compliance

What other agencies hire us for

Fix the listing. Like a chef, not a designer.

AI can make pretty images. A great designer can make prettier ones. Neither knows how Amazon decides who gets found and who gets bought. We know every ingredient, what Amazon allows, and how it all works together. That's why some of the best-known Amazon agencies quietly hire our team for their listings.

Rebuild the rank.

Amazon gives you all the data. The skill is reading it. We research your competitors and what buyers convert on, then map where you rank and where you don't. That map tells us exactly where to focus.

  • 01A rank map built from competitor and conversion research.
  • 02Split tests and keyword rotation for season, competitors and goals.
  • 03A listing isn't set-and-forget. Leave it alone for a year and it stops growing, like grass you never water.

Then scale. That's when the curve bends.

Most brands try to scale before steps one to three, and burn ad spend. Timing matters: DSP at the wrong time, or a listing that isn't built for Rufus and Cosmo, won't work. Done in order, ads add to sales instead of propping them up.

Why now

On Amazon, rank compounds. So does waiting.

Every month you wait, a competitor banks the sales history and rank you'll pay to take back later.

  • The loop runs without youSales earn rank. Rank earns traffic. Traffic earns reviews.
  • Holiday rank is built nowOctober and November decide Q4. December is too late to start.
  • Straight answerA new team won't fix Q4 in a week. The listing comes first. That's why the start date matters.

If you hire us

  • Long-term partnerships, not 3-month lock-ins. Clients usually stay until they exit.
  • You own everything: account, data, creative, history.
  • Reports come with reasoning, in writing.
  • You hear about problems from us before Amazon tells you.

Straight answers

FTR is a new name. Is this a new agency?

New name, not a new team. Same people, same clients, same systems — now independent and focused only on Amazon.

Do you take every brand?

No. A PE-backed brand we recently audited emailed to thank us for saying no. They could tell we weren't desperate to sign them.

Why do clients leave?

Usually because they exit. Most stay 2–3 years, and we help prep the exit and hand Amazon off to an in-house team.

Will a junior end up running us?

No. The operator on your Seller Review is the one who runs your account.

Is it too late for Q4?

Some of this season is already set. What gets fixed now compounds into January — and every month after.
