Challenge
  • Flat YoY revenue despite strong DTC growth, Amazon was underinvested.
  • Variation family was fragmented; flavor SKUs competed against each other in search.
  • Repeated Q4 stockouts cost an estimated $180k in lost sales the prior year.
Approach

Catalog & variation rebuild

Merged all flavors into a clean parent-child family, rewrote titles around top non-branded queries, shot new infographics for every PDP.

Sponsored Brands + Video

Launched SB Video on top hero terms, branded defensive campaigns, and a competitor conquest layer. Cut wasted SP spend by pruning long-tail keywords with sub-2x ROAS.

Inventory & FBA planning

Built a weekly sell-through forecast tied to ad spend pacing. Pre-positioned Q4 inventory at AGS warehouses 60 days early.
