What if your marketing strategy is targeting the wrong audience altogether? This episode of Brand Fortress HQ takes you through a pivotal realization by Mike at the Billion Dollar Seller Summit, where he identified the necessity of shifting his focus from the end users to the actual buyers. Mike discovered that the majority of Amazon purchasers are women, leading him to reframe his approach to appeal to wives, thus highlighting how high-end pool cleaning tools can enhance family time by freeing up their husbands' schedules. By understanding that emotional appeal can be just as vital as logical reasoning, Mike shares how this shift can expand your customer base and improve engagement.
We dive into the complexities of Amazon purchasing patterns, especially when multiple users share a single account. Gender roles and shared accounts can skew analytics, potentially causing inaccurate targeting. Listen as we break down effective strategies for analyzing and refining customer avatars through Amazon's powerful data tools. From virtual bundles and custom landing pages to targeted sponsored brand ads, we discuss how to leverage these resources to better understand and reach different demographics. Plus, learn how tools like PickFu can help you fine-tune your messaging before launching broader tests on Amazon.
Finally, we emphasize the importance of the post-purchase process and the invaluable insights gained from customer feedback. Surveying customers to understand who bought the product, who they bought it for, and their motivations can significantly refine your customer avatars and marketing strategies. Engaging with your audience through surveys not only provides crucial data but also fosters a sense of involvement and loyalty. Tune in for an episode packed with insights that could revolutionize your approach to customer targeting and engagement, helping your brand thrive on platforms like Amazon and beyond.
