It's Amazon's world and we're all just living in it. Amazon is the largest online retailer in the world, with $242 billion in annual revenue. This juggernaut presents new opportunities for retailers — but navigating Amazon, including Amazon advertising, can be tough.
Amazon Strategies, presented by Digiday, Glossy and Modern Retail, is a two-day forum and workshop where we’ll hear from brands successfully selling on Amazon, as well as leaders from agencies and consultancies that work with these retailers.
For detailed, actionable insights about starting on Amazon.com, navigating everything from Amazon Advertising to Vendor Central to managing reviews, and increasing your presence on the platform for the best success, join us.
