I've been the seller.
I'm Lachlan Coleman-Barrett — an independent Amazon PPC specialist. I don't come from an agency floor. I come from the other side of the console, spending my own money to figure out what actually moves an account.
My first business was an Amazon FBA brand — a lighting product I launched in 2023. Getting it profitable meant learning PPC the hard way: on my own budget, with my own margin on the line. That's a very different education from managing someone else's ad account with someone else's money.
Three years on, I've run 500+ campaigns for six brands — inside an e-commerce aggregator and for my own direct clients. Along the way I've managed a $300–400K/yr ad account across 400–500 live campaigns, with a featured account hitting a 4.21 ROAS on real spend (Jan–Aug 2024).
I work from Thailand's e-commerce hub, alongside FBA sellers and agency owners. I'm a broad + search-phrase specialist and I stay current on Rufus-era Amazon — how the platform ranks and serves ads now, not how it did two years ago.
What you get with me is the opposite of the agency model: no senior pitch followed by a junior account manager, no reporting portal standing in for actual work. One operator, accountable for your ACoS and your growth. PPC first — Sponsored Products and Sponsored Brands — plus the listings the ads land on. No DSP, no full-funnel media buying. Specialists beat generalists.
I'm the sole operator. Nothing is outsourced. No white-label teams, no VAs quietly running your bids, no hand-offs. Every audit, every restructure, every weekly optimization pass is done by me, in-house. When you email, I answer. That's the whole point of hiring a specialist instead of an agency.
It also means there is one way of working rather than whatever each account manager happens to do. It's written down — the whole diagnostic method, the decision rules, and the numbers behind them.
The first sales, on my own product.
This is the Seller app on my phone during my first brand's early months — small numbers, my own money, checking it obsessively. Every system I now run on client accounts got tested here first, where a wasted click came out of my own margin.
