Amazon Marketing: Why it will be crucial in 2025

Competition on Amazon continues to intensify. Anyone who still believes they can be successful in the long term with a standard SEO strategy or simple price reductions will experience major losses in the coming year. Customers today are more selective, compare more intensively and Amazon prefers listings that give professional sales signals and are immediately convincing.

Important facts:

• Amazon Marketing 2025 does not mean tricking the algorithms.
• It is not enough to spend a lot on PPC if the basic structure of your listing is not convincing.
• The focus must be on real added value for the customer, not on short-term hype or unsustainable "hacks".

Success stories: These sales are possible

Here is an excerpt from current customer projects. All figures were achieved through targeted optimization of listings and marketing, not through price wars or dubious tricks:

• 400,000 € monthly turnover with just one gaming sofa
• 44,000 € monthly turnover with a simple log splitter
• € 346,000 & € 271,000 monthly turnover with two different office chair models
• Over 1,340 sales of one of these office chairs in just 30 days - so many that stock was briefly sold out

These results are no coincidence. They are the direct result of structured image and text design, clear added value and a professionally planned customer journey.

The prerequisite: Product Market Fit

The best marketing plan is useless if nobody wants your product. Amazon customers are not easy to fool. Only if your product really fulfills the needs of your target group and solves real problems will the marketing levers work properly. Don't try to save mediocre or "random" products with nice marketing, but work on your fundamentals and launch a truly competitive product.

Remember: Without a product-market fit, you lose any chance of sustainable success.

The three ways to win on Amazon - Focus: Comparison

Amazon is not a marketplace for lone wolves. In the end, the biggest influence is always the comparison that customers actively and repeatedly make.

Option 1: Create a better product

If you have the best product on the market, you will automatically attract attention. However, developing a better product takes time, involves costs and requires real expertise. This aspect is important, but is not the focus of this article.

Option 2: Use the price advantage

Of course, a lower price often sells better. But everyone knows that price cuts quickly eat into margins and are rarely the best long-term strategy. Good marketing should prevent you from having to sell on price.

Option 3: Be better in comparison - marketplace marketing

This is where the leverage lies: customers always compare similar offers. Your task is to appear better, more original and more professional in direct comparison. A strong appearance makes competitor products look like cheap copies.

Typical destination:

• Your product should be the original, the alternative the cheap counterfeit
• Customers must recognize the difference at first glance

An example: The high-quality branded product on the left of the product image and the pale copy on the right. Use individuality and creative elements to present your product in the best light.

Perfect Amazon listing: The golf principle as a strategy for success

An Amazon listing is like a game of golf: every shot brings you closer to the hole, i.e. to closing the deal. This is exactly how product images and texts should be structured - with strategy and purpose.

The golf principle: step by step towards conversion

The first shot: The cover & first-scene elements

The cover image decides whether a prospective customer clicks on your product. It must stand out without being overloaded. Avoid generic banners, cheap gimmicks or dull copies of competitors.

Successful first-scene elements are:

• A high-quality platform
• Natural materials as a background (e.g. wood)
• Subtle banners (if they are not yet standard in the niche)

Small effects that immediately catch the eye increase your click rate.

The second stroke: Main advantages in a nutshell - The second image

The second image sums up the most important advantages. Here it must be clear what and why your product is special. Details such as "0% sugar", "100% natural flavors" or "starter set included" are ideally placed here.

Important:

• Don't show everything at once, but the top selling points first.
• The image should immediately convey the central value proposition.

The third stroke: trust & emotions - details and lifestyle

Now it's about deeper arguments. Show:

• Practical advantages (leak-proof, dishwasher-safe, suitable for carbonated drinks)
• Sustainability (certified materials, BPA-free, food-safe silicone)
• Emotional added value (lifestyle images, integration into everyday life)

Tip:
The more individual and personal the approach, the better customers will connect with your brand.

The fourth stroke: Answering all open questions - The Question Check

Every unanswered question costs sales. Preparation is everything. Collect the 20-30 most frequently asked questions about your product, check Amazon Q&A, research on Google, use tools like AnswerThePublic.

Recommended list for the Question Check:

QuestionFrequencyAnswer in listing?What are the dimensions of the product?HighYesWhat material is it made of?HighYesIs it dishwasher-safe?MediumYesAre spare parts available?LowOptionalHow does the main function work?HighYes

Important: Organize the questions according to relevance. Top questions at the beginning, specific details further down.

The fifth stroke: variants, dimensions & scope of delivery

The last images focus on variants (e.g. colors, sizes), packaging contents or dimensions. Click here to find the last convincing detail.

Conclusion on the golf principle:
As in golf, you approach the conversion in large steps and then use small details to bring the deal safely to the finish line.

Effective use of product videos on Amazon

Product videos take your Amazon listing to the next level. They convey emotions, evidence and explain complex benefits within a few seconds - a real conversion booster.

Why videos on Amazon make the difference

• Higher conversion: Videos have been proven to increase sales.
• More trust: Moving images create more credibility than text or images alone.
• Fewer queries: Many questions are answered directly in the video.

The three proven video types

Video type 1: The founder story

Here you stand in front of the camera as the founder, tell your personal story and explain authentically why your product exists.

1. Brief introduction: Who are you? What is your connection to the product?
2. Why this product? What inspired you? What problems/fails do you know from the niche?
3. Solution and improvement: What are you doing better than the competition?
4. Vision and values: Where do you want to go with your brand? What are your standards in terms of quality, service and sustainability?

Remember: Target group matching is crucial. Stay authentic and speak like your target group.

Video type 2: Benefit and proof-of-claim video

The focus here is on your product and its benefits.
Recommended setup (max. 1 minute):

• Second 0-10: Attention - staging the problem, gaining interest
• Second 10-20: Present solution
• Second 20-35: Highlight features and details visually
• Second 35-50: Reinforce emotional benefits, create trust
• Second 50-60: Call to Action

Tip: The video does not have to speak, images and short text overlays are often sufficient.

Video type 3: Branding and lifestyle videos

These videos show emotions, everyday situations or the identity of your brand. Ideal if you have simple products with great sales potential.

Examples:

• Sporting goods: Progress, motivation, sweat - all as an experience
• Children's toys: fun, joy, family idyll

The focus here is on the experience, not on a detailed list of details.

A+ Content (Amazon Premium Content)

With A+ content, you increase your brand presence, reiterate your most important USPs and further build trust with potential buyers.

You can find sample videos and outlines in the video and listing template overview.

Sources of error and optimization tips for your Amazon listing

Many listings are overloaded, text-heavy or simply standard - this puts customers off.

Overloaded comparison images and too much text

Customers move quickly through Amazon. Comparison tables or long continuous texts are often ignored. Instead, show a few, but powerful differences. Ideally at a glance in a maximum of three points.

Optimal:

• "Before and after pictures" without large text deserts
• Visualization of the benefits, e.g. through a before and after gallery

Building trust through customer opinions and social proof

Use real results and testimonials. Showcase how many satisfied customers are already using your product ("5 million happy buyers"). This gives your product the necessary credibility.

Mindset and groundwork instead of quick, "random" optimizations

You can spend a lot of money on advertising, but without a solid basis (good photos, convincing texts and videos), it won't be a success story.
Take your time to think about your product, plan each image, work on your basic messages and proceed step by step - either by yourself or with expert help.

Recommendation: Strategy discussions with an experienced service provider, such as Stacvalley, can be very worthwhile.

Always see questions in the listing as an opportunity

Every unanswered customer question is a potential lost sale. Collect all important questions, analyze their relevance and answer them systematically in your listing.

Practical tips for successful Amazon marketing in 2025

Step-by-step: how to put theory into practice

1. Outline your listing strategy: Think about what information you want to convey for each image.
2. Start with the most important selling point: What interests most customers comes first.
3. Reduce details to the last pictures: Special variants, dimensions, scope of delivery and extras move to the back.
4. Do not leave any questions unanswered: Work through the "Question Check" and ensure transparency.

What you should definitely bear in mind

• Your product must be relevant to the market. Cheap copies do not work in the long term.
• Invest in professional photos and videos or do a thorough job yourself.
• Do not use any dubious methods or blackhat techniques.
• Plan for the next few years, not the next few weeks.
