Pro Tip: You don't hire a plumber and then tell them how to do your plumbing. When you hire an expert marketing team, instead of telling them what to do, ask lots of questions to find out what they recommend. Then, give them a chance to do it their way and make you money.

eCommerce stores treat agencies much differently than employees. With employees, you expect them to take about 3 months or so to get up to speed and start making a difference. With agencies, eCommerce brands expect immediate results on day 1.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but if you pay too much attention to daily sales numbers, it's going to stress you out. The solution? Look at 30-day and 90-day windows to give you a better perspective on how things are going and which direction you're trending.
