Podcasts about shop direct

The old e-commerce funnel is breaking, and AI is replacing it… the question is, who controls customer intent?In this episode of the High Voltage Business Builders podcast, we break down how agentic commerce is changing the way people discover, compare, and buy products online. What used to be a multi-step funnel of search, clicks, and checkout is quickly being replaced by AI agents that can research products, compare options, apply discounts, and complete the purchase inside a single conversation.

This Omni Talk Retail Fast Five segment, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, Quorso, and Veloq, dives into Amazon's expansion of its Shop Direct feature. Chris Walton and returning guest Carter Jensen discuss what it means for brands as Amazon begins pulling in third-party product feeds, allowing customers to shop outside of its marketplace while still staying inside its ecosystem. The duo debates whether this is a win for consumers, a risk for brands, and how this move could reshape ecommerce, data ownership, and digital advertising. ⏩ Tune in for the full episode here: https://youtu.be/__g1k_2BOBA #Amazon #Ecommerce #DTC #RetailStrategy #OmniTalk #RetailFastFive

Amazon just made it even easier for merchants to hand over their product catalog, customer data, and sales to the world's biggest marketplace. And they're calling it an "opportunity."   Yeah… we need to talk about this.   In this episode, I'm getting into Amazon's Shop Direct and Buy for Me programs — what actually changed last week, why this is back in the spotlight, and the stuff Amazon ISN'T saying about why they want your product feed. Whether you're fired up or tempted by the free traffic, you're gonna want to hear this before you make any decisions.   The difference between Shop Direct and Buy for Me; and why one is way more problematic than the other What actually happened to merchants during Q4 when this rolled out without their knowledge The new announcement that changes the game for how merchants can participate (and what it really means) The two words that explain what Amazon actually gets out of this; and it's not what they're telling you Why "free" is the most expensive word in Amazon's vocabulary right now The honest argument I keep going back and forth on (and why I'm genuinely conflicted) What you can do if you don't want your products showing up on Amazon at all _______ Full Episode Show Notes http://ecommercebadassery.com/368   _______ Learn With Me Work with Me 1:1 https://ecommercebadassery.com/ecommerce-help/ https://ecommercebadassery.com/email-marketing/   Courses & Membership https://ecommercebadassery.com/membership https://ecommercebadassery.com/programs   _______   Let's Connect Website: http://ecommercebadassery.com Instagram: http://instagram.com/ecommercebadassery Membership: http://ecommercebadassery.com/membership   _______   Rate, Review, & Subscribe Like what you heard?

This week, we "embrace the possible" as we chat to Leigh Rathbone about Yes Man, a Jim Carrey romantic comedy which tells the somewhat-real-life story of Carl Allen, an unconfident recluse who is encouraged to say "yes" to more things in his life. We talk to Leigh about how Yes Man inspired him to do the same with his testing career, and the opportunities that opened up for him when he did this. There are discussions about work-life balance, the responsibility of employers to help with maintaining balance, and when it might be appropriate to say "no". As we progress, we pitch a role for Jim Carrey in Dunkirk, wonder if trespassing can be romantic, Leigh auditions to be our voiceover artist, and Neil still manages to crowbar-in a La La Land reference. Interview segment begins at 44:50.
