Ayers Natural Case Study

"I've never experienced double-hockey stick growth like this before!"

Ayers Naturals' Strategic Expansion Onto Amazon For Brand Stabiliy And Growth
Case Study

Brian built an ambitious brand by helping people solve embarrassing health problems with all-natural solutions that really work...

SITUATION
Brian built Ayers Naturals using Social Media to speak directly to men in their 40s, 50s, and 60s. 

The problem? 
 
Sales ebbed and flowed with each new Social Media push. Brian’s eye was on Amazon to soften his dependence on content-based sales. However, Amazon’s confusing system caused frustration – especially when Amazon ‘helped out’ by recategorizing products, which then become ineligible for paid ads.
SOLUTION

Some products attract unwanted attention from ‘helpful’ Amazon employees – especially if they can be falsely interpreted as Sexual Wellness products (a category not eligible for most ads). So, Sean and the team at Ecom Optimization used their years of Amazon experience to develop a multi-layer approach that actively keeps Ayers Naturals products in categories where paid ads are viable. 

This multi-layer strategy now gives Brian predictable and stable sales growth.

"Ayers Naturals has worked with Sean and the team at EcomOptimization for close to 2 years. They helped set us up and now Amazon brings in roughly 45% of our sales. The team has worked with us through some trying times dealing with Amazon and we are thankful for their patience and persistence in getting the work done.
