Boutique Amazon agency. Capped at 30 clients so you work directly with the owners, not an account rep. Average client stays 3+ years.
Barrel Aged Ecommerce is a full-service Amazon agency built around a deliberate constraint: we cap our client list at 30 brands. That number isn't a marketing line. It's the point at which we can still be in every account ourselves, every week, without handing you off to a junior rep who learned Amazon last quarter.
Most agencies grow by adding headcount and layers. The founder sells you, then you meet your "dedicated account manager," and the person who actually knows your category is three degrees removed from your P&L. We went the other direction. When you hire us, you're working with the owners. 15+ years in ecommerce, and we're still the ones in the bulk uploads, the search query performance reports, and the bid adjustments.
What we handle: PPC across Sponsored Products, Brands, and Display. Catalog and variation architecture. Listing optimization and compliance. Flat file operations. Brand Registry, A+, and storefronts. FBA logistics and inventory planning. Case management with Seller Support when things break, which on Amazon is often.
We also do something most agencies won't. For the right brands, we'll take an inventory position and work as a distributor instead of billing a retainer. That means our upside is tied to yours moving units, not to a monthly invoice landing regardless of results.
Our clients average over three years with us. In an industry where agencies get fired every nine months, that's the only credential that really matters.

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
My wife and I own and operate Pastease brand pasties and Tastease edible pasties and pecker wraps brands.

We hired Barrel Aged for to optimize our presence and increase sales on the Amazon Marketplace.

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
I had worked with one of the partners previously and they had an excellent value proposition and a plan that they stood behind.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
They used the combined skill set of their team to optimize all our FBA and FBM listings including keyword optimized titles and descriptions, A+ content, Storefront layout and best practices, targeted advertising campaigns and daily vigilance. We set sales goals and took regular meetings to track our progress toward them and which they continue to meet and exceed.

We work with a project lead, an advertising lead, an implementation specialist and a storefront designer.

We went from a $200 per week sales rate at the end of 2020 to $1000 per week within about 6 months of starting with them. We are now up to an average of $2000 per week at the end of 2022!
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Barrel Aged is very hands-on and easily accessible whenever questions, problems, and solutions arise. They are in the account constantly and almost always spot problems before we do. They have always delivered on time and ahead of schedule.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Barrel Aged has genuine accountability for their results. They make a point to schedule regular calls where they report directly to that accountability as well as an ongoing line of communication to make sure projects stay on track and listings stay strong and active.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Short of having an insider at Amazon to address the various anomalies and annoyances there, I don't have any complaints about Barrel Aged. They are masters at negotiating the Amazon Seller-sphere.

Our Story
Barrel Aged is owned by two partners with 15+ years in ecommerce. Both work in the accounts daily, so the people who sell you are the people doing the work. Around them is a small delivery team: one lead who owns day to day client contact, a specialist in the ad data, and a specialist in catalog, listings, and flat files. Reporting is handled separately so the specialists stay on the work. That's the whole company. A 30 client cap only works if everyone knows every account.

What Sets Us Apart
You Work With the Owners, Not a Rep
We cap the client list at 30. That's the number where the two owners can stay in every account every week instead of handing you to a junior rep. It's why our clients average over three years with us, in a category where agencies get replaced every nine months.
Distribution, Not Just a Monthly Retainer
For the right brands we'll take an inventory position and work as your Amazon distributor instead of billing a retainer. Our upside depends on units moving, not on an invoice landing. Most agencies won't do this because it puts their own money at risk. That's the point.
We Fix the Backend, Not Just the Ads
Most agencies stop at bid management. We work in the catalog too: variation architecture, flat files, listing compliance, suppressed and stranded inventory, and the backend fixes that quietly pull an account out of search. Ad spend can't outrun a broken listing.
