Creative measured on conversion rate

Images, copy, A+ modules, and video, briefed from search data and judged by whether the number moved.

Creative is the cheapest lever in an Amazon account and the last one most brands pull. A listing converting at 11% against a category norm of 16% is losing a third of the traffic you already paid for, and no bid adjustment fixes that.

We brief from the same data we advertise on: the search terms people arrive with, the questions they ask on the page, and the reasons they give when they send the thing back.

  • +5.8pt Conversion on Ironvale’s hero SKU
  • 16.1% Post rebuild conversion at Volara
  • −22% Return rate after a packaging fix

If any of this sounds familiar

On the left, what brands tell us on the first call. On the right, what it usually turns out to be once we have the numbers.

  • Traffic is fine and conversion is not

    Compare your rate against the category, not against last month. A five point gap is worth more than any bid change available to you.

  • The same question keeps coming up in the Q&A

    Every repeated question is a sentence missing from image two. Twelve of the top twenty questions on one client’s listing were about oven temperature.

  • Your main image disappears in the search grid

    Usually a dark or busy shot that looked great in isolation and vanishes next to eight competitors on white.

  • Returns mention things the listing never said

    Sizing, materials, and what is in the box. Cheaper to fix on the page than to keep paying the return.

What you get

01

Image stacks

Main image built for the search grid on a phone, then a sequence that answers objections in the order people raise them.

02

Listing copy

Titles and bullets written for the terms you want to rank on, in language a person would actually use, and checked against category policy.

03

A+ and Premium A+

Modules that carry information rather than mood. Comparison charts, sizing, and the technical detail that stops returns.

04

Video

Short listing video and Sponsored Brands video, which is still one of the best value placements on Amazon.

05

Storefront

A shop that works as a landing page for external traffic, not a brochure.

06

Test and iterate

Managed experiments where the ASIN qualifies, and a before and after on conversion either way.

How the first quarter runs

No two accounts move at the same speed, but the sequence rarely changes. If we are going to be wrong about something, it shows up in the first eight weeks.

This is a fit if

  • You know your conversion rate and how it compares to your category
  • You have enough traffic that a change will show up in the data within a quarter
  • You can supply product samples for a shoot
  • You want the assets measured rather than admired
  1. Week 1

    Brief. Search terms, review mining, competitor teardown, and the objection list.

  2. Weeks 2 to 3

    Production. Shoot, design, and copy, with one round of changes built into the schedule.

  3. Week 4

    Publish. Assets go live in a sequence we can measure rather than all at once.

  4. Weeks 5 to 12

    Measure. Conversion rate before and after, held against traffic mix so we are not fooling ourselves.

When this is the wrong thing to buy

We are not a branding agency. If you need a logo, a name, or a positioning exercise, we will point you at people who do that properly. We work on the pages where the transaction happens.
