Daniel Rafael is a top 1% Amazon seller and CEO of the Lion Group. He has worked with many big brands. His philosophy or ethos is that brands should not ignore resellers and should instead find a way to live in peace and harmony with them, while also rising above the unique challenges faced by brick and mortar stores. He believes that brands should not simply become direct-to-consumer only, as Amazon is a major marketplace where many searches begin. Education and a kind, unconditional approach are key in dealing with resellers.
