Rebuilding a Legacy Brand's Amazon Strategy

Client / Mid-market FMCG brandLocation / Maharashtra≤24 hrs to shortlist
The Challenge

The brand had been on Amazon India for four years and had mostly ignored it. Listings were created when the brand launched, ads were switched on, and then left alone. The category manager checked the numbers occasionally and felt vaguely dissatisfied. Buy Box win rate was below 40%, which meant that most of their own brand searches were putting a competitor's product in the customer's cart. Private label brands were eating share month by month. No single month was alarming enough to trigger action. The accumulation was.

The Approach

Week one was a full marketplace audit, not to produce a report, but to rank 23 identified gaps by revenue impact and decide what gets fixed first. The listing rebuild ran weeks two to six: every product page treated as if it were the brand's only presence on the platform. A restructured Sponsored Products and Sponsored Brands campaign went live in week four, before the listings were fully finished, because the old campaign structure was actively suppressing organic ranking and that had to stop immediately.

The Outcome

Within 90 days, the Buy Box win rate moved from under 40% to 78%. Organic rankings improved on 14 of the top 20 target search terms. Marketplace revenue grew 40% year-on-year in the following six months with no increase in ad spend. The category manager said the most surprising thing was that the improvement had been available for years, they just hadn't known what to look for.
