The Client

The MIVOS brand offers a wide range of construction, renovation and garden products that meet the needs of professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike. The company is constantly expanding its catalogue, adapting it to changing trends and market demands.

MIVOS faced a challenge shared by many Polish manufacturers that start selling on marketplaces: how to translate the quality of a physical product into real visibility on Amazon. Before it began working with our agency, the company struggled to optimise its advertising campaigns, present its products effectively and reach the right customers.

The tools market on marketplaces

On marketplaces, and on Amazon in particular, the tools market is increasingly shifting towards direct sales. Manufacturers of tools and building materials are moving away from a purely wholesale model and building their own brands there. What counts is a strong product page, visibility in search and your position in the Buy Box. Seasonality matters too – garden tools sell differently from workshop or painting tools. Another natural direction for growth is taking a tool brand into foreign markets on the same platform.

The Client’s challenges

During a free consultation, the owners of Mivos told us about their efforts on Amazon so far and the problems they were facing:

  • Low visibility of listings and products on Amazon – MIVOS products were hard to find, which made it difficult to reach potential customers looking for construction or garden products,

  • Not developing its own brand in the tools and construction industry – the company was not focusing on building brand recognition, which limited customer loyalty and trust,

  • Ineffective management of ad campaigns – previous advertising activity on Amazon had not been optimised, which led to disappointing sales results,

  • Poor product presentation – products were not showcased effectively with A+ Content and high-quality visuals, which made the listings less appealing,

  • Difficulty reaching the right audience – problems with ad targeting made it hard to reach potential buyers effectively,

  • Suboptimal use of advertising tools and budget – the company was not making full use of the opportunities offered by Sponsored Display and Sponsored Brands ads, which resulted in a low return on investment.

The Solution

Advertising audit

We began our partnership with a thorough audit of the advertising account, which allowed us to carry out a detailed analysis of the marketing activity to date and identify areas in need of optimisation.

The analysis covered, among other things, the campaign structure, the performance of individual ads, the choice of target audiences and budget allocation.

Strategy and solutions

We believe that a good product can speak for itself, but it’s our job to make sure it gets noticed. That’s why our strategy focused above all on making the MIVOS brand recognisable in the Home & Garden category on Amazon and firmly established in customers’ minds.

The key priority, which needed tackling straight away, was to boost the visibility of the listings and improve their quality. We did this by:

  • Auditing the existing advertising campaigns and optimising them,
  • Launching new automatic campaigns,
  • Completely reorganising all manual campaigns,
  • Carefully optimising ad bids,
  • Adding and improving video ads, which had previously failed to deliver the expected results,
  • Introducing Sponsored Display and Sponsored Brands campaigns.

Amazon Ads campaign

With the strategy in place, we moved on to an in-depth analysis, which was essential for building an effective advertising campaign. Drawing on historical sales data and a detailed review of product categories and competitor activity, we took the following steps:

  • We built a campaign structure based on the most important categories – such as construction tools, hand tools and garden equipment,
  • We selected relevant keywords for building materials, using Amazon’s search engine and the Helium10 tool,
  • We set the budget and bids, tailoring them to specific campaigns and ad groups.

We optimised the campaigns in early January 2023. The key to success was getting their structure right and adjusting bids quickly. Years of consistent account management meant that the good early results were merely a prelude to today’s fully scaled and even more efficient sales.

Sponsored Display and Brands advertising

We introduced Sponsored Display and Sponsored Brands ads on Amazon for our client to increase the reach and effectiveness of their marketing.

Sponsored Display lets advertisers reach potential customers with precision, showing ads not only on product pages but also on search results pages and on external websites owned by Amazon. This allows us to reach shoppers effectively at different stages of the buying process.

Sponsored Brands, in turn, promotes the brand by displaying its logo, a custom headline and selected products at the top of the search results. This ad format helps build brand awareness and drive traffic to dedicated product pages or Amazon Store pages.

By using these advertising strategies, we significantly increased the visibility of our client’s products, which translated into higher sales and a stronger position for their brand in the market for construction tools and garden products.

Listing variations

Alongside our work on the advertising campaigns, we had to reorganise the listings into proper variation listings.

Creating listing variations on Amazon is a strategy that lets sellers present different versions of the same product within a single listing. This means customers can easily browse and choose between options such as size or colour, without having to search through lots of separate product pages. Variations not only make listings clearer but also increase the chances of a sale, because they make it easier to match each customer’s preferences.

Visual content

Another important part of the strategy was developing A+ Content and creating infographics. Working on A+ Content, i.e. enhanced product content, allowed us to present the tool manufacturer’s range more effectively, making it more attractive in the eyes of potential customers.

High-quality infographics that visually highlighted key product features and benefits were designed not only to grab attention but also to make the value of the products easier to understand, which translated directly into higher sales.

The results of our work

Once our partnership began and the advertising campaign strategy was gradually rolled out, sales entered a growth phase. Each month of the partnership brought significant increases. We managed to:

  • raise sales value by around 65% from its starting level,
  • increase the number of units sold by around 60%.

Campaign results

The advertising campaign stayed within the agreed budget at all times, and the average return on investment was around 6.

This result shows that a well-planned Amazon Ads campaign for the construction, renovation and garden sector can genuinely boost tool sales on Amazon without a disproportionate increase in the advertising budget.
