I built $40M+ on Amazon as a seller.
Now I run the accounts of brands who’d rather not do it themselves.

You already have a real business. You don’t need a course, a dashboard, or another marketer explaining what ACOS means. You need someone who has actually owned P&L on Amazon to take the channel off your desk — and give it back growing.

How the strategy actually works
ChatGPT Claude

ZBD Growth runs the channel. I still run ZBD Growth.

ZBD Growth is the agency I built out of my own Amazon business — not a service I bolted on. Full channel management for established brands: ads, catalog, inventory, cases, and the reporting that tells you what actually happened.

  • ✓ One dedicated account manager per brand — never a shared queue
  • ✓ Hard cap at 30 brands so nobody becomes a rounding error
  • ✓ Written reporting a human wrote, not an auto-generated PDF
  • ✓ Operator-first, not marketer-first — we’ve carried the inventory risk ourselves

The 72-hour account teardown

We pull your account apart and show you exactly what’s leaking money — wasted ad spend, ranking gaps, conversion drags. You keep the findings whether or not we ever work together.

“I didn’t hand my name to somebody else and walk away. ZBD Growth is where I work every day. If your account is in it, I know your numbers.”

The question everyone asks

“Is the founder actually going to touch my account?”

Fair question. Most agencies sell you the founder and deliver a junior. Here’s exactly where I sit:

  • 1 I read every teardown before it goes out.

    Every teardown that leaves ZBD Growth crosses my desk. That’s the first thing you’ll see from us, and it’s mine.

  • 2 I set strategy on every account we take.

    The direction — what we push, what we kill, where the growth comes from — is mine. The daily execution is a dedicated team that does it better than I would at 3am.

  • 3 I’m the escalation, not a ghost.

    When something breaks — a suppression, a hijacker, a case that won’t move — you’re not filing a ticket into a void. You have me.

Straight talk

I’m not for everyone. Here’s the honest filter.

I keep a small book on purpose. That only works if the fit is right on both sides — so I’d rather tell you now than three months in.

Great fit

  • → You run an established company — Amazon, wholesale, DTC, retail — doing real revenue, not testing your first product
  • → Amazon matters to you but it is not the only thing you do all day
  • → You want to hand the channel to someone competent and get your attention back
  • → You’d rather read one clear monthly report than sit in five status calls
  • → You’re building for the next few years, not testing an agency for 60 days

Not a fit

  • → You’re launching your first product and need someone to teach you Amazon
  • → You want to approve every bid change and sit inside the ad console with us
  • → You’re shopping purely on price and comparing us to a $500/month freelancer
  • → You need a guaranteed number by next quarter or the deal’s off
  • → You’ve had six agencies in two years and none of them were the problem
Case study

From $3M to $24M in 24 months.

Not a rebrand, not a lucky product. We rebuilt the PPC architecture from the ground up, engineered organic rank on the terms that actually convert, and let the two compound into each other until the account was buying its own growth.

Where I think out loud.

Most days I post what I’m seeing across the accounts we run — what’s working on Amazon this month, what changed, what I got wrong. No motivational carousels.
