What's inside

No waffle – just what you really need.

We write the newsletter straight from our day-to-day agency work: whatever we come across in client projects this week lands in your inbox on Sunday.

Amazon updates, translated

Fee changes, new programmes, policies – we explain what's changing and whether you need to act.

PPC- & SEO-Tipps

Concrete steps for better rankings and more efficient campaigns – tested in real accounts, not in theory.

AI & automation

Which tools and workflows really save time – and which are just hype.

Marketplaces & shops

Kaufland, OTTO, Zalando, Shopify: where the effort pays off right now and where it doesn't.

Real-world figures

Benchmarks, conversion figures and metrics from over 30,000 managed listings.

Mistakes that cost money

What we see again and again in account checks – so it doesn't happen to you.

Why it's worth it

The right information at the right time changes your numbers.

In e-commerce, timing is everything. Anyone who knows about a fee change, a new advertising format or a policy two weeks earlier can act – while others are still having to react.

Two weeks' notice is enough to meet the deadlines – instead of a sales freeze mid-season.
Information advantage

Know two weeks earlier – be a quarter ahead.

We see changes first in our own accounts and across over 100 client projects – long before they make the trade press. It's exactly these observations that land in your inbox on Sunday.
