# TESMO

> TESMO is an Amazon channel management agency for premium consumer brands, operating full-service agency, modular, and merchant (Agency + Retail) models. Los Angeles, since 2008. Tagline: "Master the Marketplace. Together."

TESMO runs premium brands' Amazon channels as an operating system, not an account-manager service: senior operators where judgment matters, plus an in-house, TESMO-built data warehouse and toolset where consistency does. The operation is AI-native with operator-led judgment - 18 years of merchant DNA running on an AI substrate TESMO built itself: AI runs the daily sweep across every account; senior merchants make every call that touches money or price. The firm has been data-first since 2008 - it ran its own ~$20M/year multi-vertical retail business and built and sold its own brands before becoming a channel-management partner. Ten disciplines (demand planning, inventory, catalog, account health, content & creative, ad management, promotions, conversion optimization, reporting & analytics, dashboards) run in a continuous Plan → Build → Grow → Measure loop. Wherever a decision touches money or price, guardrails are enforced in code and a human commits.

Engagement: two models - **Agency** (you own the account; TESMO runs the channel; base fee + a percentage that steps down with scale) and **Agency + Retail** (TESMO acts as merchant of record - buying your inventory via PO and selling as the retailer - aligned to full-price sell-through). The primary call to action across the site is a conversation ("Let's Talk") at /contact. TESMO does not publish client names (engagements are kept discreet); outcomes are shared anonymized.

Best fit: established, premium brands doing meaningful Amazon revenue with complex catalogs (pets, apparel, grocery, beauty, supplements, sports nutrition). Not a fit for early-stage sellers or tactical-only ad management. US-focused, Canada live; warehouse and FBA-prep facility in Paramount, Los Angeles. Contact: info@tesmo.com.
