Overview

The Background

A US-based furniture retailer with a strong brick-and-mortar presence had decided to expand onto Amazon. They had set up their Seller Central account, created their first listings, and were ready to start advertising. Before turning on any PPC spend, their operations manager wanted someone to check whether everything had been set up correctly. They had heard enough stories about brands wasting thousands of dollars driving traffic to poorly built listings to know that getting the foundation right first was worth the time. AMZOS conducted a full setup audit before a single dollar went into advertising.

Key Challenges

Listings Built Without Amazon Experience

Listings were created without Amazon experience, leading to weak title structure and bullet points that read more like product copy than search-focused content.

Backend Terms Wasting Every Indexing Character

Backend search terms were filled with repeated brand names and irrelevant keywords instead of relevant category terms.

Images With No Visual Decision-Making Information

Product images were simple lifestyle shots without infographics or feature callouts, giving shoppers little information to compare products and make a purchase decision.

No Clarity Around FBA, Fees, or Account Health

The brand lacked clarity around account health, fees, and FBA vs. FBM, leading to operational decisions without a clear understanding of Amazon’s requirements.
