Amazon is the premier marketplace for selling products, but scaling a brand can be a challenge for the inexperienced. If you are ready to grow your brand to over seven figures, Amazon experts suggest focusing on three pillars: product development, listing optimization, and traffic generation.

Many e-commerce entrepreneurs are solopreneurs who handle all aspects of their business. However, they’re still competing against large conglomerates with teams of experts. Amazon selling mentor and e-commerce entrepreneur Adam “Heist” Runquist asserts that it’s possible to professionalize a brand by adhering to the three pillars. Once a product is appropriately designed for a target audience, it clears a path for better rankings, more pay-per-clicks, and increased conversion rates. To optimize product listings, Adam suggests concentrating on a small range of keywords and imagery using A/B testing. Regarding traffic generation, it’s vital to understand what proportion of your sales are driven organically or through PPC. And while leveraging Google and YouTube ads can be beneficial, Adam advocates partnering with influencers as brand ambassadors.
