This launch strategy focuses on building product visibility, generating initial sales, and achieving a strong listing rank.
Negotiate pricing for bulk orders.

| Campaign Type | Budget | Goal |
|----------------------|----------------|-------------------------------------------|
| Automatic Campaign | $15–$30/day | Identify high-performing keywords. |
| Manual Exact Match | $20–$40/day | Target top keywords discovered in auto. |
| Sponsored Display | $10–$20/day | Retarget customers and increase visibility.|
Tip: After 1–2 weeks, review the ad performance and shift budget to keywords with a low ACoS (Advertising Cost of Sales).
To drive sales velocity and generate reviews quickly, you can:
1. Offer Discounts: Partner with deal sites like Snagshout or RebateKey.
- Example: Provide 50–70% off for an initial set of 20–50 units.
2. Run Social Media Campaigns: Share discount codes on platforms like Instagram or TikTok.
Go to your Seller Central orders page and click Request Review for each fulfilled order.
Insert Product Inserts:
Example:
> “Thank you for your purchase! If you love our product, please leave us a review. Your feedback helps us grow!”
Encourage Organic Reviews: Offer excellent customer support to increase satisfaction.
After the first 2–3 weeks:
- Identify high-performing keywords (low ACoS) and shift focus to manual campaigns.
- Reduce spending on keywords with high clicks but low conversions.
