Client background

A beauty and personal care brand competing for visibility on Amazon.

This brand sells beauty and personal care products on Amazon, a category where shoppers compare many similar options and rankings decide who earns the sale. It needed stronger visibility and better keyword rankings to turn its catalog into steady monthly sales.

Our team built structured PPC campaigns around the brand's best-performing products and search terms, then scaled the campaigns that converted.

The challenge

In a competitive category, visibility and keyword rank drive sales, and ad spend can scale faster than results if it is not structured well.

The goal was to grow monthly sales and impressions together, with campaigns organized so budget followed the terms and products that performed.

The solution

A structured, data driven Amazon PPC approach.

Four moves, run together, to grow visibility and sales while keeping every campaign tied to the numbers.

  1. Keyword research and campaign structure

    Campaigns were organized around the brand's highest-intent beauty and personal care search terms, with proven keywords separated from discovery so budget followed performance.

  2. Search term pruning

    Search terms were reviewed regularly, with negatives added for queries that did not convert and converting terms moved into focused campaigns.

  3. Bid and placement management

    Bids and placements were adjusted as data arrived, shifting budget toward the placements and terms that produced sales.

  4. Keyword rank and visibility growth

    Spend was concentrated on the products with the strongest sales velocity to lift keyword rankings and organic sales alongside advertising.

73% monthly sales growth from February to June, reaching $333K in a month.

Structured campaigns and steady optimization grew ad-attributed sales to $616K, with 26.9M impressions at a 29.99% ACOS.
