Amazon has made some important updates to its Brand Metrics, and it’s something every seller should pay attention to. These changes could really help you improve your sales and strategy on the platform.
What’s New in Brand Metrics?
Before May 2024, Amazon’s Brand Metrics didn’t include high-value customers, which meant you were only seeing part of your brand’s performance. Now, these customers are included, giving you a fuller view of how your brand is doing. Here’s why this matters:
- Complete View of Performance: You can now see a more accurate picture of how your brand is performing, which helps you make better decisions.
- Compare with Competitors: You can see how your brand stacks up against the average in your category and the top players. This comparison covers the entire buying journey, from awareness to purchase.
Why This Matters for Your Brand
Let’s say your shopper growth is 15%. That sounds good, right? But if the top brands in your category are growing at 20%, you know there’s room for improvement. This insight is especially useful for planning big sales like Prime Day or the holiday season.
Better Understanding of Market Changes
With these updated metrics, you can tell if changes in your performance are due to trends in the whole category or specific to your brand. This information is crucial for adjusting your strategy effectively. If the market is shifting, you won’t waste time making unnecessary changes to your own marketing.
Key Benefits of the New Metrics
- Informed Decisions: With better data, you can make smarter choices about your brand’s direction.
- Targeted Marketing: Knowing where you need to improve allows you to create focused marketing campaigns.
- Long-Term Insights: Tracking these metrics over time helps you see trends and understand your brand’s growth potential.
