Ep 76 - 10 Years In The Queue

On this episode of Tacos Tuesday, Sebastian Hargreaves sits down with Hamish Conway for a rare, behind-the-scenes conversation marking 10 years in the Amazon game. What starts as a look back quickly unfolds into a candid exploration of how it all began, the pivotal decisions that shaped the journey, and the moments that nearly broke it. Along the way, Hamish unpacks how dramatically the Amazon landscape has evolved from the early days of simple private label wins to today’s hyper-competitive, data-driven, brand-first environment where margins are tighter, expectations are higher, and execution matters more than ever. It’s an honest reflection on what’s changed, what most brands still get wrong, and why the path to success now looks very different to what it did a decade ago. If you’re trying to build, scale, or even just survive on Amazon today, this episode will challenge your assumptions and leave you thinking about the long game in a whole new way.
