Launching a New Product on Amazon A product launch is a meticulously planned initiative to introduce a new product for sale. A well-executed product launch captures consumer interest, drives sales, and establishes a good and strong brand position in the marketplace. The Amazon Marketplace is a great place to launch your product. 75% of shoppers come to Amazon to discover new products, while 68% of shoppers “window shop” without having a specific product or brand in mind. This presents an opportunity for emerging brands to get their products in front of relevant audiences and be a part of their consideration set.
A successful product launch is not just about putting a new item on the market; it's about orchestrating a strategic event that introduces your innovation to the world and sets the stage for its long-term success. Get to know your customer It's essential to gain a profound understanding of the individuals you're aiming to serve. Who are your customers? What drives their decisions and shapes their preferences? Develop a clear picture of your target audience Get to know your productYour product's unique value: set it apart from the crowd. Your product needs to stand out, captivating the attention of potential customers and establishing itself as the superior choice. To achieve this, it's crucial to identify your product's unique selling points (USPs) – the qualities that differentiate it from its peers. By clearly communicating these USPs through compelling messaging, you can effectively position your product as the go-to solution for your target audience.

Launch the product and measure your results After product launch, monitor all campaign efforts and adjust creatives, targeting, and other elements instead of waiting until the campaign is over. Optimize, optimize, optimize.
Consider discoverability, awareness, targeting, and remarketing to make the most of your product launch advertising efforts Focus on discoverability Increasing shopping discoverability is a key objective. Relevant placements in shopping results can help both jump-start new product sales and accelerate sales of your existing products. Drive awareness Educate customers about your new product and why it differs from competitors. Targeting - Reach shoppers outside of the shopping results By using product targeting in addition to search keywords alone, you can reach high-purchase-intent shoppers who don’t use shopping results to find their next purchase.
Remarketing Remarketing connects with audiences who’ve already expressed interest in your product—but haven’t yet converted to a sale. Drive more conversions through SD targeting. Optimize your creative It’s important to look for ways to differentiate your product through your advertising creative. Using lifestyle images and videos are two ways to help communicate your product messaging beyond the ad copy.
Amazon Ads solutions can help amplify the success of your product launch
Enable discovery and sales of your products with cost-per-click ads in shopping results. This will help drive traffic to your new product’s detail page. By driving traffic, these ads can help increase detail page views and product reviews. But what about shoppers who are not using shopping results to find their next purchase? For example, shoppers can start on external search engines and go directly to Amazon detail pages via links. Or they can browse Amazon by filtering for specific product attributes, such as category, average star reviews, or price. For these scenarios, product targeting tactics provide an additional way to engage high-purchase intent shoppers on Amazon.When you use product targeting, you can reach specific audiences without having to rely on search keywords alone.
