Organic Prep: Invest in keyword optimization, competitive scraping, and high-quality content, including images and infographics. Prime Day Duration: The event has expanded to four days, so expect consistent sales throughout. Merchandise Fees: PED fees have doubled to $100; the new coupon fee structure starts June 2. AI Search: Amazon's AI assistant, Rufus, influences up to 35% of search traffic. Optimize your listings for this. Competitive Monitoring: Be ready to monitor competitors and pivot quickly if issues arise. Expect the Unexpected: Prepare for unexpected challenges, like account health flags and listing suspensions.

In dieser Kassenzone-Folge spricht Karo mit Michael Hurnaus, Gründer und CEO von Tractive. Das Unternehmen bietet GPS- und Gesundheitstracking für Hunde und Katzen an und kombiniert Hardware mit einem Abo-Modell. Seit dem letzten Gespräch vor zwei Jahren hat sich viel getan: Die Nutzerzahlen sind von 1 Million auf 1,3 Millionen gestiegen und der Umsatz liegt inzwischen bei über 100 Millionen Euro Annual Recurring Revenue. Sehr beeindruckend ist auch die Churn-Rate bei unter 2 % - der durchschnittliche Kunde bleibt damit über vier Jahre – besser als bei Netflix! Michael erklärt, warum der Erfolg von Tractive stark vom frühen Markteintritt und einem radikalen Fokus auf das Kerngeschäft geprägt ist. Mittlerweile ist das Unternehmen in Europa, den USA und Kanada etabliert – als nächster Schritt steht Mexiko an. Um sich vom - noch überschaubaren - Wettbewerb abzuheben, setzt Tractive stark auf lokale Ambassadors und User Generated Content. Denn eine der wichtigsten Herausforderungen bleibt die Category Awareness und das Wissen der potentiellen Kund:innen über die Vorteile der Anwendung gegenüber einfachen Tracking Werkzeugen wie zum Beispiel Air Tags. Außerdem geht es um das neue Geschäftsmodell: Tierversicherungen. Michael gibt spannende Einblicke, warum strategische Partnerschaften in diesem Bereich großes Potenzial haben. Auch TikTok Shop ist ein Thema – welche Chancen bieten sich hier für Tractive? Und welche Hürden gibt es im Fachhandel, wo technikaffines Personal oft fehlt? Welche Nachhaltigkeitsstrategien Tractive verfolgt und noch mehr über deren Erfolgsgschichte und Herausfoderungen im Tiermarkt hört ihr in dieser Folge!

Gone are the days where you, you know, I remember back in 2016, brands weren't even asking for insights or analytics. They would just be like, ‘hey, we'll give you $2,000 to create this YouTube video'. Gone are those days. And so it really is about honing in on what it is that you specialize in." – Julie Solomon GUEST RESOURCES: Think Media Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@ThinkMediaPodcast IG: @seancannell  RESOURCES: [LAND PAID BRAND DEALS] Want the step-by-step roadmap to grow your following, monetize your content, and land paid brand deals?
