What makes The Marketplace Institute different?
We know how frustrating it is to find the answers you need from Amazon directly. After all, the agency behind the Marketplace Institute, Bobsled Marketing, has been serving consumer brands on Amazon for the past 5 years. Bobsled has managed hundreds of brands on Amazon, and the Marketplace Institute uses the same processes, tools, and people that make our agency clients successful.
We also understand that many brands, regardless of their size or sophistication in other areas, want to reduce their reliance on outside agencies and consultants. These are brands) who want to invest in their team, build their Amazon capability internally, and save money while doing so.
As a Full Access Member of the Marketplace Institute, you can:
Get a head-start with documented processes, checklists & best practices.
Learn from your peers about what strategies are working in their business.
Schedule on-demand calls with our Amazon experts to solve tricky situations.
Master your company's Amazon channel from the inside out seamlessly.

What our clients say about us.
I liked that we kept the conversation to a handful of topics or less so we can deep dive into each matter. The examples you gave about packaging inserts were useful and specific. It was great that we were able to spend around 10 min or more on each topic because it gave the audience a chance to soak in the information.

We got into Amazon around 5 years ago and are on both VC and SC.
Our challenge on Amazon is always trying not to get surprised by any Amazon action.
Since we do not have a Vendor Manager, the Marketplace Institute is a great platform for us to find our answers and ask questions.

Googling for answers to my Amazon questions is a big time suck. There are so many different answers and I don't know which information is up to date or trustworthy. But the Knowledge Base saves me a ton of time with its search function and the security of knowing all the information is up-to-date and from a credible source. I also like being able to suggest new topics.
