Case Study: Boosting Sales and Visibility for a Gloves Seller on Amazon

Industry: Apparel (Specializing in Gloves)
Product Range: Work gloves, winter gloves, fashion gloves, fitness gloves
Challenge: Low visibility, high competition, and underperforming PPC campaigns

Background

A premium manufacturer of high-quality gloves for various industries was struggling to gain traction on Amazon’s highly competitive marketplace. Despite having a well-regarded brand in their local market, their online presence was limited, and their Amazon store wasn’t generating the sales they expected. With competitors offering similar products at lower prices, the seller was finding it difficult to stand out.

The gloves market on Amazon is flooded with sellers, making it challenging for new businesses to break through and gain visibility. The seller needed a comprehensive strategy to improve their Amazon PPC campaigns, boost their product rankings, and ultimately increase sales.

The Challenge

The seller faced several key challenges on Amazon:

  1. Low Product Visibility: Despite having quality gloves, their listings weren’t appearing at the top of search results for relevant keywords.
  2. High Competition: The gloves category was highly competitive, with numerous sellers offering similar products at lower prices, making it difficult to differentiate themselves.
  3. Ineffective Amazon PPC Campaigns: Previous PPC campaigns were not optimized, leading to high spend with minimal conversions and low return on ad spend (ROAS).
  4. Lack of Targeted Keywords: The PPC campaigns were using broad, non-specific keywords that weren’t generating meaningful traffic or sales.

Solution

To tackle these challenges, the seller partnered with AMZPPCINFO, a leading Amazon PPC and marketing solutions provider. A tailored strategy was developed that combined keyword optimization, a targeted PPC approach, and listing enhancements. Here’s how the problem was addressed:

1. Keyword Research and Optimization

We began by conducting in-depth keyword research to identify high-converting, product-specific keywords. Using tools like Helium 10 and Jungle Scout, we identified both high-traffic and long-tail keywords with lower competition. By focusing on these niche keywords, we were able to improve product visibility and reduce ad spend waste. Key strategies included:

  • Long-tail keywords: Targeting specific phrases like “best winter gloves for cold weather” and “high-performance work gloves” to reach more targeted customers.
  • Competitor keyword analysis: Identifying keywords that competitors were ranking for and optimizing listings to target those same keywords.

2. Optimized PPC Campaign Structure

We revamped the seller’s PPC campaigns by setting up structured campaigns that prioritized high-performing keywords while avoiding overly broad terms. Our approach included:

  • Automatic Campaigns: Using automatic targeting to discover new keywords and generate data on what worked best.
  • Manual Campaigns: After gathering data, we launched manual campaigns for highly relevant, high-converting keywords to control bids and ad placements more precisely.
  • Dynamic Bidding: We implemented Dynamic Down Bidding to reduce bids on keywords that weren’t converting, optimizing the budget for the best-performing keywords.
  • Product Targeting Ads: Running product targeting ads allowed us to target competitor listings and similar products, driving traffic to the seller’s listings.

3. Listing Optimization

We also enhanced the seller’s product listings by making sure they were optimized for both search visibility and conversions. Key changes included:

  • Title Optimization: Including the most relevant keywords in product titles to improve ranking.
  • Bullet Points & Descriptions: Crafting clear, benefit-driven bullet points and descriptions to highlight the unique selling points of the gloves, such as durability, comfort, and industry certifications.
  • Enhanced Brand Content (EBC): Implementing Enhanced Brand Content (A+ Content) to make the product pages more engaging, showcasing the brand’s value, and increasing trust.

4. Sponsored Brands and Display Ads

To further boost brand awareness, we set up Sponsored Brands ads that showcased the seller’s range of gloves at the top of relevant search results. These ads helped improve the brand’s visibility and created a direct path for customers to discover multiple products in the same campaign.

We also leveraged Sponsored Display Ads to retarget users who had previously viewed the gloves but didn’t purchase, increasing the chances of conversion.

Results

After implementing these strategies over a 3-month period, the results for the seller were outstanding:

  1. Increased Sales:
    The seller saw a 30% increase in sales in the first three months after optimizing their Amazon PPC campaigns.
  2. Improved Return on Ad Spend (ROAS):
    By optimizing the PPC campaigns, the ROAS improved by 25%, meaning they were able to get more sales for every dollar spent on advertising.
  3. Enhanced Product Visibility:
    With targeted keyword optimization and improved product listings, organic rankings for many products improved, leading to a 20% increase in organic traffic.
  4. Better Brand Recognition:
    Sponsored Brand ads and better-targeted campaigns helped build brand awareness, leading to a 15% increase in repeat customers.
  5. Reduced Advertising Spend:
    Dynamic down bidding and optimized campaign structure helped reduce wasted ad spend, achieving a 20% reduction in overall PPC spend while improving sales performance.

Lessons Learned

  • Keyword Relevance is Key: Using broad keywords without targeting the right audience can lead to wasted ad spend. Focusing on long-tail and specific keywords significantly improved results.
  • Optimization is an Ongoing Process: PPC campaigns require constant monitoring and refinement. Regularly updating keyword lists and bids is essential for staying competitive.
  • Product Listings Matter: Listing optimization can be as important as PPC. Well-crafted product titles, descriptions, and A+ Content play a crucial role in converting clicks into sales.
  • Data-Driven Decisions: The data from automatic campaigns and keyword research guided manual campaigns, ensuring we were always targeting the most relevant keywords and audiences.
