How to promote your own Amazon product?

7 replies
Hey everyone,

I hope this is the right section to ask this question, sorry if not...

I was thinking maybe starting developing/manufacturing my own private product/label and start selling in on Amazon. I know the process already and what it takes, yet there 2 questions I wish to ask before I even begin:

1. Can I start small and then grow with time if I see it is succeeding? I mean, is it possible not to invest too much money at first (I know there are imports, taxes, minimum orders the manufacturer requires and so on...) and try to sell little by little?

2. How do you promote your own Amazon product and page? This is probably the million dollar question and this is one of the factors if the product will be shown on first page of searches on Amazon or not. Are there free methods? Paid? Are they expensive?

Would really appreciate your help in this matter, I have been in affiliate marketing for a long time now with my partner, yet we're earning not enough, so I thought maybe try this path as well.

Thank you all for everything and have a wonderful day!

      Just promote your Amazon product page as if it were your own site. Create a blog, Youtube videos, social profiles, Google+ etc all linking to your Amazon product. More sales through better SEO will also equal better ranking on Amazon itself, which in turn creates more sales and better rankings, etc etc etc.

    Hello,

    It could be great if someone in this forum could talk about a success story selling its own product on Amazon.

    Anybody?

    If it is the first time you are selling physical products I would suggest not to start with manufacturing your own. Nothing happens until you sell. And there are easier and cheaper ways to see how well can you move a product.

    I also think you are asking the wrong questions about marketing. If you go through the hassle of creating your own brand, don't ask "how to promote Amazon page" etc. Your focus will be at the wrong place.

    You will have to come up with a full blown marketing campaign. And yes it can be expensive.

    -Create video eg. how to use your products videos or testimonial videos.
    - Put keywords everywhere. The best way to help people find your videos is by including your keywords in the title, description, and tags. Use the Google Keyword Tool to find variations of the keyword for additional tags.
    - Add Your URL to the Description
    - Post your video to LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and your other social networks in order to promote your videos.
