Unlock Hidden Amazon Profitability Today

A new full-funnel Amazon strategy, Amazon Marketing Cloud , is now available for all advertisers! And, only available through approved partners like Brand Focus Digital. Amazon is much more than a shopping site! Between Twitch, Prime Video and live sports, Amazon is engaging shoppers in many ways. The only way to truly unify all those touchpoints is Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC). AMC is an enhanced advertising data-gathering platform for current Advertising campaigns on Amazon. It allows advertisers to dig deeper into their marketing and audience data. For example, gain the ability to uncover critical marketing functions like consumer purchase journeys, overlap analyses, and new-to-brand acquisition. Advertisers who wait on AMC are going to miss out. First-party signals are the future. Amazon’s data is rich—but ultimately incomplete. To get a truly holistic understanding of your shoppers, you need to tie your first-party signals (in a privacy-safe way) to AMC. Adding 1P signals, according to our Amazon reps, is when you can “start to scale these audiences much further than what you're able to do if you just look at the signals that Amazon's providing.” Previously only available for DSP advertisers, AMC is now available for all advertising campaigns, and through an affiliated partner, like Brand Focus Digital. Brand Focus Digital has the access and expertise needed to gather, analyze and interpret the data for you. Contact us to get started immediately to enhance your advertising strategies today.

Last week our leader, Clint George, spent time with Amazon and the Buy with Prime team! Not only was he engaged with the BwP Amazon team, he learned about cutting edge products and programs launching this week that help us help manufacturers like you! Amazon Today! A program that offers same-day delivery and in-store pickup from your retail locations. A unique opportunity to market your in-store selection on Amazon.com and offer same-day delivery or in-store pickup in a few hours from your store to millions of customers. Amazon Warehousing & Distribution - (AWD) Utilize Amazon as a 3PL warehouse to ship products from where they are manufactured in bulk (like Taiwan or another country) to the US, but directly into Amazon rather than another US based warehouse. Amazon Multi Channel Fulfillment - (MCF) a program where Amazon ships to customers that purchase from other websites like Etsy or Ebay for example. The shipment can be put in an unmarked box, so it doesn't appear to the customer that it’s coming from Amazon. Let’s talk today about how these programs can benefit you, your sales, and ROI!

Dim the lights, the results are in! Amazon’s annual Prime Day sales event was held from July 16 through July 17. The results show, among other things, an uptick in total money spent and a record set for the number of items purchased. In terms of Brand Focus Digital, we are excited to announce that many of our clients enjoyed a robust increase in sales during Prime Day. For example, a leading North American coffee company increased its sales during Prime Day (as compared to a regular Amazon day) by 704%. Similarly, a large-scale specialty food company increased its sales by 407%. Let’s take a closer look at some numbers and a few observations from the big event. What the Data Shows As reported by Bloomberg , this year’s Prime Day sales climbed 11%, as American shoppers reportedly spent 14.2 billion. Amazon also issued a recent news release saying that Prime Day had set a record for the total number of items purchased, but the company did not offer specific sales figures. Interesting, is a comparison of Prime day results to Walmart+ Week, which is Walmart’s main sales event that lasted for a whole week in June. According to PYMNTS Intelligence’s data , twice as many consumers shopped on Amazon’s Prime Days than during Walmart+ Week. But indications do show that Walmart Week participation is catching up to Prime Day participation. According to analysts, for Walmart to catch up all the way, it will need to grow the Walmart+ subscriber base more than anything. Both Walmart+ Week and Amazon Prime Day reported a 50% participation rate from subscribers, but the lag in their number of subscribers impacted Walmart+ Week's sales. Observers also found a key downside for Amazon that would have been a problem if the subscriber bases were the same size. Walmart+ Week shoppers, on average, spent more than Amazon Prime Day shoppers, primarily on groceries and high-ticket items. Consumers Focus on Sales Events and Coupons In the wake of Prime Day (and Walmart+ Week and Target Circle Week), PYMNTS reported that consumers increasingly wait until sales events to make major purchases. According to Katie Stratton, chief growth officer at Target-owned on-demand delivery aggregator Shipt: “In the past year, we’ve seen engagement in our promotions with higher-than-expected volume around popular seasonal moments.” Further, according to Katie Kobus, vice president of marketing at Save A Lot, “Customers are shopping circulars to find the best deals, and … we’ve seen an uptick in the use of coupons.” Contact Brand Focus Digital Today Brand Focus Digital helps manufacturers sell their products easier and more efficiently on Amazon and other online retailers - in North America and across the globe.
