Hey Abdul … You might remember that Ben Leonard w0n our last hack contest in July ….and for good reason… he is an Amazon OG who sold his brand to Thrasio for zillions and then after they ruined it he bought it back for peanuts and now he’s rebuilding it again.

He is one of the badass peeps in the space and he runs one-of-kind agency!

You know how most Amazon brands are stuck playing the same boring game in the same tiny pond? PPC tweaks, keyword stuffing, praying for rank… meanwhile, their margins vanish.

That’s the goldfish bowl!

Peregrine Commerce helps brands escape it. How? By running their 0ff-Amazon growth and retention marketing: influencer campaigns, viral reels, social strategies, email flows, funnels, the whole playbook.

N0w before you scroll past – wait. This actually works, they can prove it. They do it for their own brands too (they’re not like 99 % of agencies…they actually know what they are doing).

The crazy part is that when you do this right, your Amazon $ales explode because of what’s happening 0FF Amazon.

One client saw a 20 % $ales lift in 90 days. N0w they’re stacking record months, while competitors sit scratching their heads.

Another client’s influencer program has generated hundreds of thousandss of Instagram views (and insane amounts of credibility).

They even landed a sports brand in Sports Illustrated, triggering a 235 % surge in $ales.

Most agencies don’t do this. They’ve never built their own brand.

Peregrine has. Ben scaled Beast Gear from his laptop to $ 6M in $ales before exiting.

N0w they run growth systems for other ecommerce brands (and they test everything on their own brands!!)

If you’re tired of the hamster wheel and want your brand to thrive beyond Amazon, you need to build a flywheel that drives awareness, $ales, and retention everywhere.

Peregrine Commerce and Ben will show you how

TikTok just hit a massive flex in Europe — 200M monthly users across 32 countries. Last year it was 175M, so they growin’ like crazy. That’s nearly one in three peeps in the EU + UK + EEA scrollin’ every month. France, Germany & Italy lead the pack. TikTok says it ain’t just mindless scrollin’ — folks learnin’ skills, chasin’ hobbies, buildin’ biz, and turnin’ passions into paychecks. From small hustlers to culture shapers, the impact is real — jobs, audiences, opportunities, flowin’ through the feed.

Amazon Accelerate came in hot, droppin’ gems. Big takeaway? By 2029, Gen Z runnin’ the checkout line . These young peeps don’t just want products, nah — they want feelings. 84 % onlybuy from brands they vibe with , and 71 % expect that “this ad was made for me” kinda energy . Amazon’s servin’ up fresh tools: ASIN-level Customer Journey Analytics (see exactly how they find yo’ stuff), smart rec engines makin’ ad plays and oneclick promos.  If you ain’t buildin’ for Gen Z n0w, you snoozin’. 2029 gon’ creep up quick peeps.

Amazon Seller Assistant, once just a help desk for sellers, is n0w a full-on agentic AI co-pilot. It ain’t just answering questions no more — it’s proactively handling business shit: flaggin’ slow stock before fees hit, auto-adjusting pr1ces, booking shipments, even buildin’ marketing campaigns. That’s Amazon’s brandnew play, shifting from just supply-side efficiency to demand-generation for sellers. They tryna teach the AI how to run the show while trust is low but need is high. If this rolls out right, they’ll own autonomous commerce.  This isn’t just hype — it’s a head start that’s hard to beat.

Wednesday we poppin’ bottles — TikTok dealdone peeps! Oracle, A16z, Silver Lake, Uncle Sam runnin’ the algorithm, 80 % American-owned, China sittin’ in the backseat at 20 %. Newapp, newrules, Supreme Court chillin’. Folks yellin’, “Big w1n!”  But then Friday hits… and suddenly Xi ain’t sayin’ nothin’, Trump flexin’ like it’s signed, and China talkin’ “we’ll see, by the rules.” Deadline pushed to December, ban hammer still hoverin’ like a guillotine. So was it a donedeal? Or just political karaoke?  Either way, TikTok still dancin’, but the music might st0p.
