Why Amazon recognized Lab 916 as Challenger of the Year

Out of thousands of agencies, Amazon picked Lab 916 for one reason: client outcomes nobody else was producing. KOBO Candles was one of them — watch Amazon tell the story.

The six drivers we manage

The six drivers we manage

Running an Amazon business looks like chaos. Lab 916 organizes it into six systems.

No other Amazon agency frames it this way. Once you see the six drivers, the entire job becomes legible — and runnable.

No other Amazon agency frames it this way. Once you see the six drivers, the entire job becomes legible — and runnable.

Before — running it yourself

Every channel, every day, all at once.

After — Lab 916 running it for you

After — Lab 916 running it for you

Six systems. One team. Everything connected.

01

01 — LISTING PERFORMANCE

01 — LISTING PERFORMANCE

Creative built from Amazon data.

All copy, hero images, product detail page images, A+ Content, lifestyle photography, infographics, and video — produced in-house. Every asset created from Amazon-specific data and best practices, not generic creative briefs. 15 years of pattern recognition for what actually converts on this platform.

02

02 — ADVERTISING

02 — ADVERTISING

Award-winning ad management.

Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, Sponsored Display, DSP, plus off-Amazon traffic that feeds back to your storefront. Full-funnel architecture, daily bid optimization, search-term harvesting, brand defense, conquesting, dayparting, creative testing. Built and managed by the team that earned Amazon's 2023 Challenger Award.

03

03 — ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT

03 — ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT

Strategy and execution.

The strategic calendar plus the daily ops. Listing health, support tickets, brand registry, attribute fixes, discount strategy, deal setup. Plus the events that win the year — Prime Day, Black Friday, Q4 — prepped, executed, and post-mortemed end-to-end. We do the thinking and the doing.

04

04 — DATA & REPORTING

04 — DATA & REPORTING

Amazon's data, made digestible.

Custom dashboards, monthly performance reports, quarterly business reviews, proactive alerts on anomalies. Plus continuous monitoring of Amazon's policy and best-practice updates — when the platform changes, we change with it, fix what breaks before it costs you, and brief you on what actually matters.

05

05 — LOGISTICS

05 — LOGISTICS

Inventory's sweet spot.

FBA inbound shipments, 3PL coordination, multi-channel fulfillment, reimbursement recovery, IPI score management. The daily fight: keeping the right SKUs in stock without overpaying Amazon for storage, long-term fees, or surprise charges. Forecasting, replenishment, and removal orders — all handled so you never see a stockout or a surprise bill.

06

06 — SOFTWARE & TECH STACK

06 — SOFTWARE & TECH STACK

The full stack, managed for you.

Helium 10, DataDive, Jungle Scout, and other cutting-edge Amazon tools — plus our own proprietary internal systems and SOPs. We license the full stack so you don't have to, and the strategist running your account actually knows how to use every tool in it. We're always testing what's new as the Amazon ecosystem evolves.

How we work

The Lab 916 Method

Same three steps, whether you're already on Amazon or not.

01. Diagnose

We audit your account top-to-bottom across all six drivers. You get a written diagnosis: what's working, what's leaking, and what's missing.

02. Formulate

We design a custom growth plan and prioritize the levers with highest ROI first. You approve every move before we touch anything.

03. Scale

We execute, report, and iterate. Weekly check-ins, monthly performance reports, quarterly business reviews, plus a dashboard you can read at 3 a.m. No surprises, ever.

After kickoff

After kickoff

Working with Lab 916, day to day

One dedicated strategist, a full team behind them, and zero ambiguity about what's happening with your account.

One dedicated strategist, a full team behind them, and zero ambiguity about what's happening with your account.

Your dedicated strategist

One senior lead acts as your fractional Amazon COO. They coordinate the creative, ads, account management, and tech teams behind the scenes — you only deal with one person, and that person owns the outcomes. They operate your Amazon channel like it's their own business — not a ticket queue, not a SOP to follow.

Communication on your terms

Slack, email, WhatsApp, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, or phone — whichever your team already uses. Weekly, biweekly, or monthly check-ins based on your engagement, plus monthly performance reports and quarterly business reviews. We adapt to how you work.

Custom reports, real translation

Reports built for your business — not automated Excel dumps you have to decode. We blend Amazon data with the rest of your operation, formatted for the stakeholders who actually need to read it. Helicopter view or full drill-down, depending on the question. Plus the hard truths most agencies are afraid to say out loud — what's not profitable, what's not working, the calls you'd rather not make. Then a plan to fix it.

Always one step ahead

You hear about it from us first — with the fix already in motion, or the win already set up.  The fixes you'd notice: listing suppressions, attribute breaks, ad disapprovals, POAs to reinstate listings. The wins you wouldn't: variation setups, browse node moves, business pricing tiers, subscribe-and-save, voice-of-customer monitoring, A/B tests — plus the dozens of smaller plays that compound.

Why teams pick Lab 916

Lab 916 is built to operate as your Amazon growth team, over agencies and in-house

Not another vendor on a quarterly call. A team that owns outcomes the way an internal Amazon department would. Here's how Lab 916 stacks up against the alternatives most buyers are choosing between.

LAB 916BEST FIT
TYPICAL AGENCY
IN-HOUSE TEAM

Pricing

Built for your profit, not our percentage

LAB 916: BEST FITFlat fee. Aligned with your growth, not your ad spend.
TYPICAL AGENCY% of ad spend. Incentive misaligned with profit.
IN-HOUSE TEAMSalaries + benefits + software ($300K+/yr loaded).

Expertise

Senior experts on call, daily

LAB 916: BEST FITSenior Amazon experts on every account. 10+ years average, ex-Amazon and Amazon-trained, no junior reps.
TYPICAL AGENCYJunior reps doing daily work. Senior strategy is sales-only.
IN-HOUSE TEAMNear-impossible to hire one person who knows all six drivers.

Coverage

Six drivers, one team

LAB 916: BEST FITFull-spectrum: ads, creative, ops, support, logistics, tech.
TYPICAL AGENCYOne service. You stitch the rest together yourself.
IN-HOUSE TEAMNeed to hire 4 to 5 specialists, or accept gaps.

Flexibility

Built to love you, not churn you

LAB 916: BEST FIT30-day rolling. Project, monthly, or quarterly, your call. We earn the renewal every month.
TYPICAL AGENCY6 to 12 month minimums. Auto-renewal traps.
IN-HOUSE TEAMHard to flex up/down with seasonality. Layoffs are messy.

Accountability

Your Amazon COO, not just an agency

LAB 916: BEST FITOne team owns it end-to-end. Strategy and execution under the same roof, same team, same accountability.
TYPICAL AGENCYStrategy from sales, execution from juniors. Diffused ownership.
IN-HOUSE TEAMManager + IC, both stretched. Knowledge silos within the company.
It's clear they care. It's clear everyone has their area of expertise. And it matters to them.

Is Lab 916 right for you?

We work best with brands at one of these moments. If any of this sounds like you, we should talk.

We work best with brands at one of these moments. If any of this sounds like you, we should talk.

You sell — or want to sell — a brand on Amazon, and you want to do it right.

You're already on Amazon but stuck. Sales aren't where they should be, and you don't know what's working or what to fix.

You've outgrown your current agency, or you can't tell what they're actually doing for the fee.

You can't get Amazon to look the way your brand looks everywhere else — your creative isn't translating.

You're considering hiring an in-house Amazon team and pricing the alternative.

You keep hitting walls with Seller Central or Vendor Central and don't have the time or the right hire to fight them.

Why Lab 916 was built

After a decade inside Amazon and at the agencies that serve it, we kept seeing the same gap: brands with great products, no team to run them. So we built the team — full-spectrum, senior-led, no percentage fees. That's Lab 916.
