THE STRATEGY

Built in layers, not a single account

Rather than running one generic Amazon campaign that targeted broad terms, the account was structured in layers, allowing us to display relevant products to a high-intent end-user. Whilst some campaigns ran broad category and use-case terms, picking up demand from buyers still comparing options. Others are scoped tightly to a single product line, catching searches from someone who already knows exactly what they want. A separate campaign targeted a narrower product category where competition is thinner but buyer intent is just as high.

Running these layers side by side, rather than folding everything into one broad campaign, meant budget goes where it earns the best return and each layer can be judged, and adjusted, on its own terms.

Refined every month, not set once

Search behaviour in this category shifts with the seasons, new product launches and whatever competitors are bidding on that week. We review performance frequently: which keywords are converting, which are burning budget without returning sales and where a new product needs its own dedicated targeting rather than sitting inside an existing campaign.

That discipline is what keeps ROAS high even as spend moves up and down month to month. When a keyword stops converting, we drop it. When a new product launches, we build targeting around it from day one instead of waiting for weak performance data to tell us it’s underperforming.

THE RESULTS

Over 12 months, the account returned 1,064% ROAS. For every $1 spent, Amazon Ads generated more than $10 in sales. On a marketplace built around low-cost, high-volume selling, the achieved average order value of over $5,000 is a clear sign that our Amazon Ads strategy and ongoing optimisations ensured ads are reaching serious buyers rather than casual browsers.

The account also opened up a segment of the market that the client’s existing sales structure wasn’t built to reach. Independent operators, the ‘mom and pop’ shops the client serves across the US, can now find and buy a single unit directly through Amazon in minutes, without going through a sales rep. That’s incremental revenue sitting alongside the client’s bulk order pipeline, not competing with it.

Amazon Ads doesn’t run in isolation either. It sits inside a wider multi-channel strategy led by our Loom channel specialists: Organic Search (both SEO and GEO), Paid Media (search, paid social, and programmatic) continuously builds awareness for the client’s products before a buyer starts searching on Amazon. By the time someone does search on Amazon, brand recognition and trust is built – and the ads do their magic to turn that recognition into a sale.

PART OF A BIGGER PICTURE

Amazon Ads worked because it wasn’t treated as a stand-alone channel. It was built, and rebuilt every month, around how real buyers search, compare and decide to purchase high-value equipment, connected to a channel mix designed to keep the client’s products front of mind wherever a buyer is looking.

If you’re selling considered, high-value products in a marketplace that rewards speed and price, we’d be glad to talk through what’s possible.
