1. Don’t read this (three examples of reverse psychology marketing)

  • Marketing and psychology go hand-in-hand, but have you considered using reverse psychology to generate internist, curiosity, and motivation?
  • Reverse psychology triggers reactance, a feeling of rebellion that can make us want to do the very thing we’re told not to (hey, you’re reading this right now!).
  • Brands like Volkswagen, Patagonia, and Hilton Hotel are using these strategies. Click here to dive deep and view the ads.

2. This is the Amazon Blueprint that helped generate $500M in revenue last year.*

‍

  • The Pilothouse approach to Amazon ads is rooted in two fundamental goals: (1) visibility, and (2) control. Failing to understand and quantify these objectives results in a weak foundation and convoluted data.
  • In this FREE whitepaper, they break down how you can leverage strategic keyword segmentation, effective naming conventions, and optimized campaign structures. Plus, real-life case studies to see it implemented on platform.
  • Don’t let a shoddy foundation limit your Amazon potential. Get your ticket to scale with this blueprint from the minds at Pilothouse.
