Making sure you’re not leaving easy money on the table, here are 9 ways you can grow your Amazon sales:

Adding Variations

Quite possibly, the simplest way to achieve more sales is through variations. Not all customers will purchase your white variation; some want it in yellow, red, or blue. Research your niche and see what other competitors are selling. Are they selling another variation that is doing well? If so, launch that variation immediately, and capture those customer variation preferences.

Increasing variation does increase purchases and conversions, but be careful of diminishing returns on having too many choices/variations.

So as long as you don’t launch too many variations, this tactic would be very effective in scaling your Amazon business.

Adding Complementary Products

Since you are already selling to a target market, you can add a complementary product to your store. What is a complementary product? It is a product that your customer would potentially use on top of purchasing your product. One simple example would a battery charger and the batteries as a complementary product.

You can also create a tactic around complementary products through product upsells. By using an insert card in your package you can offer a discount on your complementary product and tap into your existing customer base.

To use the above tactic, please be sure to be TOS compliant, specifically your insert card should be directing them to purchase on Amazon only and not on your own website.

You can also use the grocery store tactic where you are actually losing money on one product, but you can make up the difference on the upsell on the complementary products.

Launch Your Product on Other Amazon International Markets

You can also launch the same SKU in your current active Amazon marketplaces to the other international Amazon marketplaces that Amazon supports. Currently, Amazon supports 17 marketplaces that allow 3rd party sellers to list on and sell.

Amazon’s Global Marketplaces:

• United States
• Canada
• Mexico
• United Kingdom
• Germany
• France
• Italy
• Spain
• Japan
• Singapore
• United Arab Emirates
• Brazil
• Australia
• India
• Netherlands
• Saudi Arabia
• Turkey (limited categories)
• Sweden

By parallel operating on Amazon marketplaces in different countries, which also have their own FBA, you do not need to source a new product and use current product photos. You can also negotiate a possible lower per-unit cost by ordering a higher MoQ. What you need to do is to get your listing translated and check if your current freight forwarder can ship your product to the target country

Look into the Wholesale Business Model

Another way to scale your Amazon business look into is to wholesale well-known brands on Amazon. There is a whole different community out there that only wholesales versus private labeling. If you are wholesaling already, you can look into private labeling as well.

Basically, wholesaling allows you to tap into existing demand for the product without driving the demand yourself. The same operations procedures apply to wholesaling, but the only difference is that product launch can skip for wholesaling.

A great free resource for Amazon Wholesaling I would recommend is from Chris Potter at Lesson Learned in Business, you can find it here

Duplicate Listing (Same Product, Different ASIN)

The next suggestion here will be a bit controversial. The duplicate listing tactic is where you will create another listing with a different ASIN using the same existing product. This works well in situations where the niche is already semi-competitive and where adding another listing as a competitor to your existing listing will not cannibalize your sales that much. Better to be a competitor yourself than having another seller’s listing be the competitor.

You can make your new ASIN different by creating another brand/logo and make sure your main photo has a different look than the one in your previous listing.

Having another listing, allows you to have multiple placements on the search result, or “taking up more real estate” as some will call it. More real estate on the search result means more exposure and thus more potential sales.

Grow Off Amazon

You can list your product on other E-Commerce marketplaces such as eBay, Walmart, or Etsy. By leveraging your existing product orders and logistics, such as Amazon FBA, you can increase sales without too much effort. Although these non-Amazon marketplaces won’t come even close to the potential orders you will see from Amazon, these are less competitive marketplaces and will probably require fewer resources to achieve high ranking.

Amazon Seller Financing

Okay, the semi-dirty secret that many people leave out in E-Commerce and especially Amazon is that it is a very cash-intensive business. All the growth tactics I previously mentioned would not be quite possible if you don’t have the cash behind it. Yes, you can use your profits to reinvest, but again that is limited to the cash you have on hand and, therefore, leaving potential sales on the table.

Amazon lending is an easy way for Amazon sellers to access additional cash to finance additional purchases. On top of Amazon lending, there are other 3rd party lenders out there that can give sellers a competitive interest rate. Some of the lenders that come to mind are Sellerfunding or Currenxie.

Interest rates for Amazon sellers are around 10 to 15% ARR. If you are quoted for more than, that I would shop around as a lot of these new Amazon seller financing services have sprung up over the years.

Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP)

An offbeat way to grow your Amazon business is to start selling digital books. Through the KDP program, you can easily publish a book and have it sold either as an e-book where the reader will be reading it via Kindle or a physical book where Amazon will print the book on-demand once an order is placed.

The entire process of researching and launching an e-Book applies very similarly to Amazon FBA. The key difference is hiring writers in KDP to produce the content, and you will no longer need to deal with the ongoing supply chain.

Google SEO

The last and probably the most difficult way to grow your Amazon business is SEO via Google. What makes SEO hard is the different moving parts in the Google search algorithm, it not only takes into consideration the quality of your content but also the speed of how your page performs and other external signals such as your social media and backlinking.

Another difficulty of Google SEO is that it would take 6 months or more for the true results to take hold, and this can be quite different from the near-immediate results Amazon sellers are used to. But if you can get your product or brand ranked organically on Google, it will be well worth it.

Why Use Reddit for Your Amazon Product Launch?

Reddit is the 7^th most visited website across the globe with over 30 billion users worldwide. 430 million of these are considered monthly active users! These figures are already enough reason to set up an Amazon product launch on Reddit. Even better, Reddit also has over 1.2 million subreddits that are highly concentrated on specific topics. For Amazon sellers, the best thing about subreddits is that they have millions of members who interact on niche topics daily. These individuals can make a great target market for your product launch.

Including Reddit ads on your Amazon product launch strategy can bring in external traffic to your product listings. This is one of the top-ranking factors for Amazon search engine optimization (SEO).

How to Create an Ad Campaign on Reddit

Subreddits allow you to put ads related to the specific niche they’re focused on. These ads will appear as “Promoted” posts. These look pretty much like the normal posts, but with a call to action on the bottom of the post.

If you’re ready to launch your product on Reddit, the first thing you have to do is create an account. Go to ads.reddit.com and sign up. Promoted posts are very similar to Facebook ads, but instead of using “interests” as a targeting method, you will use “subreddit interests/subreddits” within Reddit.

In the home page, click the blue “Create Campaign” button to get started. You will be redirected to the “Campaign” page where you will be asked to type in the name of your campaign, the funding instrument for your campaign, and the objectives of your campaign.

In the “Objective” part, you can choose from different ad campaign goals, such as:

• Brand awareness and reach
• Conversions
• App Installs
• Video views
• Traffic

Since you’ll be launching Amazon products, we recommend that you choose the Conversions Objective. This one is more focused on people with buying intent.

How to Create an Ad Group for Subreddits

Once you’re done filling in the first few details about your Amazon ad campaign, click next. Then you can proceed with creating an ad group for subreddits. Here’s a step by step guide:

1. Type in the details of your product and target the right audience.

You’ll be redirected to the Ad Group section. Here, you’ll be asked to type in your ad group name, the location or country of your target audience, the interests, and the communities (which would be the subreddits you’d like to target).

2. Set your ad budget and schedule.

Under “Delivery,” you need to put your daily budget, bid amount per click (or how much you would like to spend on your ads), and then the campaign schedule (start & optional end date).

3. Input your ad title, URL, creatives and call to action.

When you click continue, you will land on the actual creatives page where you will put the type of post (whether it’s a link or a video). If you click “Link Post,” you will also be asked to type in the post title and the destination URL of the product you’d like to promote.

For the “Card Image” section, you need to create a 1200×628 graphic for your ad. We recommend that you put text on the graphic and use an eye-catching font, product images and/or colors. For example, if you’re launching a new product for 50% off its original price, then you can create an image with a “Launch Promo: 50% OFF” copy or something related to that.

This page also has a “Call to Action” dropdown where you can easily choose “Shop Now.” When you scroll down, you will see your ad preview for your chosen subreddits. You can see how your ad will look on both desktop and mobile.

3 Ways to Funnel your Reddit Traffic to your Amazon Product

Now that you know why it’s ideal to do an Amazon product launch on Reddit and how to set up an ad campaign in this platform, let’s move on to how you can actually earn from your Reddit ad campaign. You can leverage on this in three ways.

1. Direct Purchase

This is the easiest way to launch on a Reddit ad since you don’t need to add coupon codes, vouchers or any other complicated steps for Reddit users to click through your ad and buy your product. All you need to do is to create the Reddit ads by following the steps above, use the super URL, and direct the user to the product.

Although it’s pretty straightforward, this strategy is very favorable for your Amazon product listing as it helps you gain more external traffic which is one great way to rank on Amazon’s search engine results pages (SERPs). At the same time, when Reddit users click through your ad and purchase your product, you can also get additional ranking juice or SEO points – talk about hitting two birds in one stone.

The down side with this strategy is that your conversion rate will probably be low and cannot collect additional customer information such as email

2. Direct Purchase via Landing Page

Another way to earn from your Reddit ad is by sending the user to a landing page first and then to your product listing using the super URL. Using a landing page service, one being http://pxlfy.me/, you can search for landing page templates that are specifically made for Amazon product launches. Once you have chosen the template, you may be asked to type in your product title, product price, discount offers, product image, and call to action (which should lead to your Amazon product page or listing). Some templates also allow you to add reviews that may help convince users to click through your ad.

In addition, you can collect an email on the landing page before the potential customer clicks on the link to your Amazon product.

3. ManyChat Rebate via Landing Page

Lastly, you can also launch your product by using the ManyChat app for Facebook Messenger. To be able to do this, you need to go to ManyChat first. Once you’re on the ManyChat homepage, click “Growth Tools” and choose “Landing Page.” You can edit the headline with your product launch offering and then put a description underneath. Add an image, and then click Next twice.

Under Opt-In Actions, replace the default opt-in flow with your actual ManyChat rebate, and click next. Then on the last tab, you will see a landing page URL which is the one you will add on the “Link” field of your Reddit ad. This link will direct the user to the landing page of the ManyChat rebate flow.

This option may be the most tedious one to set up, but it has proven to be successful for many Amazon sellers. We recommend that you try all three ways to figure out which one would work for you best.

Final Thoughts

With over 40 million searches every day and over 430 million active monthly users, Reddit is indeed one of the best platforms to use when launching a new Amazon product. And although we have covered the most essential things you need to know when setting up Reddit ads, we don’t neglect the fact that you may have questions that we weren’t able to answer on this article.
