Disney’s Amazon Success Story: Achieving 526% Growth in Just 3 Months
Case Study
Disney grew sales by 526% in 3 months using Ecom Optimization's ads, content, and influencer strategies to attract shoppers and boost loyalty.
SITUATION
Disney, a household name with a trusted fanbase, sought to break through stagnant growth on Amazon with a newly launched clothing line. Already reaching millions of Amazon shoppers, Disney’s challenge was to cut through its own brand saturation and attract new customer segments while maximizing revenue from returning shoppers. Traditional strategies were yielding results, but the Disney team recognized the need for a more innovative, layered approach to scale their Amazon presence.
SOLUTION:
Leveraging both Disney’s strong brand identity and cutting-edge Amazon strategies, Ecomm Optimization crafted a comprehensive plan focused on attracting new customers and retaining existing ones. The approach included:
- Enhanced Product Visibility with Organic Reach: Leveraged Disney’s iconic character names alongside high-volume, seasonal, and trend-based keywords to capture searches from new shoppers while maximizing organic reach.
- Dynamic, Multi-Tiered Ad Campaigns: Developed campaigns that included Sponsored Brand ads, Sponsored Display ads, and product-specific campaigns to capture buyers at various stages of the shopping journey and boost exposure for the new line.
- Engaging, Storytelling-Based A+ Content: Curated a “magical” experience for viewers by incorporating character-driven stories, interactive visuals, and rich brand content to create an immersive, brand-aligned shopping experience.
- Influencer Collaboration and Amazon Live Integration: Expanded Disney’s reach by aligning with influencers who hosted Amazon Live sessions, driving customer engagement, and building anticipation for new products.
RESULTS
- 526% Sales Growth in Three Months Disney experienced a staggering 526% growth over the first three months of the campaign, allowing them to outpace competitors and further establish their presence in new and existing customer segments. Sales continue to grow.
- Expanded Customer Base with New Shoppers The targeted strategy and expanded ad reach attracted a fresh wave of Amazon shoppers to Disney’s listings, driving over 2.7 million visitors to view Disney products monthly.
