We cut 85 roles at My Amazon Guy this week, most of them last night
I’m not going to dress that up
AI moved faster in 2026 than we planned for, and it let us retire project management and executive assistant roles across the company, along with a few other backend roles
Reporting that used to take a PM hours now runs on its own through Amazon’s API
KPI tracking, pod updates, and most of the clerical work run the same way
Strategy, judgment, and the client relationship still need a person
So we rebuilt around fewer people doing higher level work, with AI carrying the busywork
Every agency is going to reach this point
This wasn't a forced decision, but we chose to do it now
To everyone affected, thank you for what you gave MAG and our clients
These are strong Amazon operators
They know PPC, listings, catalog fixes, account health, and how to keep a client calm when Seller Support won’t help
Most of them are looking for their next role right now
If you’re hiring, leave a comment with what you need and we’ll connect you
If you were at MAG, leave a comment with what you’re great at and what you want next
I want every one of you to land somewhere good
