Our Approach

Foundational Work and Optimization
My Amazon Guy partnered with K’lani to establish a strong foundation on Amazon. The initial focus was on resolving critical listing issues, stabilizing advertising performance, and implementing fundamental strategies to capture existing demand and improve the customer experience.

Catalog and Listing Optimization

  • Analyzed and corrected listing variations and content issues to resolve suppressions and improve discoverability.

Creative and Content Enhancement

  • Implemented a systematic approach to bid and keyword management to control ACOS and improve ad efficiency.

Promotions and Demand Generation

Strategic Scaling and Holiday Readiness
With a stable foundation, the focus shifted to strategic scaling in preparation for the critical Q4 holiday season. This involved proactive inventory management, aggressive advertising tactics for peak traffic periods, and enhancing listings with seasonal content to maximize sales potential.

Sustaining Momentum and Enhancing Brand Authority
Following a successful Q4, the strategy focused on sustaining sales momentum and further enhancing the brand’s authority on the platform. Efforts concentrated on refining advertising efficiency, completing brand content projects, and leveraging data to drive continued year-over-year growth.

Advertising Management

Days with My Amazon Guy
Onboarded on August 2024

The Idea behind K’lani was born in January 2021, when Monica was trying to tighten one of her expensive braided bracelets. As usual, her boring black hair-tie was sitting on her wrist next to it. While pulling the strings with her teeth, the thread bracelet frustratingly broke. She thought to herself, “Why can’t the bracelets go on as easily and be as functional as this ugly black hair tie?”
