Amazon Growth & Profit | Co-Founder OBG | 500+ Brands Managed

Is your Amazon channel leaking profit you can't see? Unauthorized sellers stealing your Buy Box, suppressed listings, ad spend with nothing to show for it - most brands lose margin on Amazon and don't know where. I'm Jon Klein, co-founder of OBG (Online Brand Growth) - a founder-led Amazon brand management agency. We've driven $450M+ in lifetime Amazon revenue across 500+ brands, with 25+ years of combined Amazon operations experience. I'm a brand owner myself, so I run your account the way I run mine: for contribution profit, not vanity revenue. What makes us different from every other "Amazon expert" here: - Founder-led. You work directly with me and my co-founder Dan Balda - not an account manager, not a handoff, not an offshore team. - 100% in-house. We don't outsource a single service. Every action - SEO/CRO, advertising, logistics, operations - is performed by an OBG employee. - Profit-first, fully aligned. We partner on a percentage of your contribution margin, so we only win when you win. - Wholistic. Listings, advertising, logistics, and operations work together under one roof. What we fix: - Unauthorized & gray-market sellers hijacking your Buy Box and pricing - Suppressed, incomplete, or under-optimized listings bleeding rank and conversion - Amazon ad spend burning cash instead of compounding profit - Brand Registry, A+ Content, and storefront gaps - Flat or stalled growth on a brand that should be scaling A few results: we took a baby brand from $100K to $3M (30X) in under 18 months - into retail and a successful exit. We tripled a self-defense brand's contribution profit ($230K to $780K). We grew a security brand's sales and profit 50%+ YOY. Who I work best with: established brands doing $1M+ on Amazon (or scaling hard) that want Amazon run like the profit center it should be. Launching your first product? I'm probably not your fit - and I'll tell you so honestly. Certifications: Amazon Ads Advanced Partner and Scale Insights Agency Partner. No pressure, no pitch deck - just an honest conversation about your Amazon business. Send me your brand and your biggest Amazon frustration, and I'll tell you straight whether we can help.
