Amazon FBA represents incredible potential to build your online business. However, running an Amazon FBA business also involves some distinct challenges, especially if you want to stand out from the heavy competition which now exists on the platform.<\/p>\n

In this article we will look at 10 bite-sized, actionable tips which you can apply to your business today, and which could be the secret to building a successful Amazon FBA business in 2019.<\/p>\n

Determine the Best Keywords Through Competitor Analysis<\/h3>\n

Keywords are important for Amazon listings for two reasons. Firstly, they help to rank your products and appear in as many relevant searches as possible. Secondly, the correct keywords used well can be crucial in converting users to customers. You don\u2019t need to reinvent the wheel here: find the best keywords by analysing your competitors and taking what is working for them, while leaving what is not. Use a tool like Junglescou<\/a>t or MerchantWords<\/a> to run potential keywords and see which \u00a0are likely to be the most profitable.<\/p>\n

\"10<\/p>\n

Be a Brand Not a Product<\/h3>\n

This is critical, and something many Amazon sellers don\u2019t understand. If you want to build a successful Amazon business, you need to think about yourself as a brand, rather than focussing on each product separately. This means right from the start you need to have a clear idea of your brand and let this set everything from your business name, to the products you sell, and how you present your listings.<\/p>\n

Respect the 7-day Window<\/h3>\n

As you probably already know, when it comes to selling on Amazon, ranking is everything. The number one thing you can do to get visitors to your product listing and therefore drive sales is to rank your product highly on Amazon searches. Amazon ranks products based on a few factors \u2013 keywords, reviews and organic traffic are all factors \u2013 but mostly based on sales. After all, they want to promote products with the best potential to make money for them! Many sellers struggle to rank because they can\u2019t make sales, and their lower ranking harms their potential to make sales, and so on. The key to avoiding this vicious cycle is in understanding that the first 7-day window after launching your product are critical to its Amazon ranking.<\/p>\n

Drive as many sales as possible in this first 7 days. Go all out on your chosen marketing strategies during this time, whether this is encouraging reviews from your network, social media, PPC advertising, digital PR, or all of the above.<\/p>\n

Use Online Tools <\/h3>\n

The best Amazon product research tools\u00a0<\/a>can help you to deliver results which exponentially grow your business.

Fortunately, there are some great online tools available to help sellers boost their performance.<\/p>\n

Perfect Your Product Titles<\/h3>\n

The vast majority of Amazon users make a purchasing decision without reading the whole product listing: deciding based on the title, price and images. The title is doubly important because this will determine whether your potential customer clicks through to the listing at all. It is crucial to have a \u201cclickable\u201d title which contains as many keywords as possible while being persuasive and engaging, and including all (or close to all) of the product\u2019s features and benefits. Use pipes or dashes to break up keywords and increase readability.<\/p>\n

Value Add to Your Images<\/h3>\n

For the same reason, having strong images is incredibly important. Product images which are on a white background work best, and you can add extras to have images which really sell. Because most people won\u2019t read all the information in your listing, include these details in your images: such as details to point out sizing or features, or creating custom graphics which show the benefits or features of the product.<\/p>\n

Have Zoom-able Images<\/h3>\n

Also make sure you make the most of your images by letting users zoom in for more detail. This means having images which meet Amazon minimum requirements for zoom-able images. This is currently 1000 by 500 pexels, but they change this often so be sure to check.<\/p>\n

Maximise Your Key Product Features<\/h3>\n

Even though not all people read the entire listing, this doesn\u2019t mean you should ignore it entirely. The product description, and more importantly the \u201ckey product features\u201d section could make the difference between a customer and someone who clicks away to browse more products. The key product features are the bullet points at the top of your listing: these should be packed with primary keywords, persuasive sales copy, and as much detail about the product as possible. People love detail!<\/p>\n

PPC Advertising<\/h3>\n

Pay-per-click advertising can be a great way to drive additional organic traffic to your listing, particularly within the critical first 7 days. You may choose one of the many options of PPC which Amazon has within its marketplace, or other mediums such as Google Adwords and Facebook Ads<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"10<\/p>\n

Grow Reviews<\/h3>\n

Reviews are important factors when it comes to both rankings on Amazon and conversions. Research shows that consumers are more likely to make a purchase on products which have a decent number of positive reviews. Be extremely proactive in encouraging reviews: always ask your customers to leave a review, and if they don\u2019t, ask them again. You may like to implement creative tactics for encouraging reviews such as a personalised request in the delivery packaging.<\/p>\n
