So, advertising the things I have already bought? Not sure thats gonna be super successful...
Amazon has done that for the past 2 decades and it has somehow worked.
Has it worked? Its never led to a repeat purchase for me. :/
Maybe they won't suggest things you already bought, but will estimate what you're going to buy next, based on the statistical analysis of people who bought the same things.
Yeah it’s more like, hey you just bought stabilizing jacks and a water hose for a travel trailer. You must have just bought a new camper. Let’s bombard you with add for stick-up-hooks, rv-mattress sized sheets, cheap plastic dishes, etc.
