S4 E11: The Argument for Marketing Warfare/The FTC Won’t Let Amazon Be /How to Crush TikTok Shop

This week, the boys are breaking down a few of the most disruptive grey hat marketers in the industry, including the case of an imitation mayonnaise company that was buying its own product and stashing it in warehouses, the bone broth brand beefing up its D2C sales through Instacart, and the merits of using guerilla marketing to mess up the retargeting pool of Facebook ads. 
Don’t hate the player… hate the millennial marketer trying to game the system.
Plus, Nik and Moiz tackle the rise of TikTok’s newest shop feature and explain which brands are crushing the organic advertising game. 
Then, they delve into Shop Pay’s announcement that it’ll be offered outside of Shopify and discuss the woman waging her own odyssey against Amazon Prime’s manipulative tactics.
