What's consensus now on putting brand name as first word of title?

Since Amazon basically has been deleting that automatically from the title. Are you guys not putting it as the first word or ?

We put it in when they wanted it in and it has stayed.

It is generally there for most in the category we are in.

We keep it in to help with brand recognition and buyer confidence off Amazon. Our brand name also has a strong keyword for the products.

They aren’t deleting it universally. If you search for your brand it will be there. It’s also what they want even though they delete it sometimes so the right thing to do it to follow the style guideline. Keeps ya out of any unnecessary BS.
