Building a Successful Brand on Amazon

To successfully launch and sell a product on Amazon, it is crucial to conduct thorough market research. This involves evaluating search volume for relevant keywords, assessing competitor reviews and prices, and determining if your product is a good fit for the Amazon marketplace. Additionally, creating a strong listing with optimized images and detailed product descriptions is essential. To drive traffic and sales, it is recommended to start with an aggressive advertising strategy, allocating a budget of $300 to $500 per day. During the first 30 to 45 days, known as the honeymoon phase, it is important to focus on generating high sales velocity and obtaining reviews. Running ads, targeting specific keywords, and utilizing tools like Helium 10 can help establish a strong presence on Amazon and improve organic ranking. Finally, maintaining consistent inventory levels and never running out of stock is critical to sustaining performance and avoiding potential setbacks.
