To kick off this new series, we are joined by industry veteran Jason Hein. Jason brings over a decade of merchandising experience from McMaster-Carr and a foundational role building out Amazon Business's industrial catalog—but more importantly, he brings a fantastic sense of humor and a gift for storytelling that makes complex data actually fun to talk about. Today, he’s unpacking his 5 C’s of Product Data framework, sharing how to translate heavy technical jargon for everyday buyers, and giving us the exact tactical blueprint to build a data model that scales. Let's unpack it. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/unpacking-the-digital-shelf-256460/episodes/the-5-c-s-of-product-data-with-jason-hein-global-director-b2b-ecommerce-association/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/unpacking-the-digital-shelf-256460/the-5-c-s-of-product-data-with-jason-hein-global-director-b2b-ecommerce-association.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
