Strategic Amazon PPC Optimization Leading to Sustained Sales Growth

This case study presents a performance-driven analysis of our client’s Amazon storefront, managed by SunTec India. Tasked with reviving stagnant sales and scaling revenue, our primary focus was on the strategic Amazon PPC campaign optimization. Leveraging data-driven insights, we audited the client’s historical performance, addressed marketplace-specific challenges, and implemented a full-funnel PPC strategy. This resulted in not only the restoration of baseline sales but also sustained growth and profitability on the Amazon marketplace.

The client

A California-Based Supplier of Hospital-Grade and Personal Medical Products

Our client is based out of California, USA, operating both an ecommerce website and an Amazon store focused on personal-use and hospital-grade medical supplies. With nearly two decades of experience, the company caters to medical supply needs of different clinical settings, ranging from home-care environments to outpatient & intensive care clinics, laboratories, rehabilitation centers, and hospitals. Known for delivering professional-grade healthcare equipment, the brand has steadily expanded its presence across multiple sales channels, including international marketplaces such as Amazon.

The opportunity

Underperformance Despite Favorable Market Conditions and Product Readiness

Our client operates in the North American medical supplies market, which is steadily expanding—driven by rising healthcare investment, evolving population needs, and a growing focus on long-term care and chronic condition management. With both personal and institutional healthcare spending on the rise, the client was well-positioned to benefit. However, despite having a strong product line and efficient inventory management, the brand was not capturing its fair share of Amazon's market demand. Performance remained inconsistent, and growth potential on the platform was largely untapped.

PROJECT CHALLENGES

Scaling Long-term Growth in Amazon’s Toughest Categories

Medical Supplies & Equipment represents one of the most difficult Amazon product categories for sellers. Amazon presents stringent regulations with several licensing and product-detailing restrictions. It is common to find Amazon sellers of hospital-grade supplies facing repeated suppressions with the threat of account suspensions. While sellers try navigating the risks, they can get distracted from the primary challenge—their advertising dollars not delivering the impact and continuously rising cost of making a sale.

Few challenges that needed to be addressed were:

  • Highly competitive landscape with limited organic visibility for new or mid-level sellers
  • Constant updates to Amazon compliance policies created additional operational overhead
  • Difficulty in maintaining consistent ASIN performance due to unpredictable listing suppressions
  • Inefficient ad spend due to low conversion rates and high CPCs in a regulated niche

Audit Highlights - Key Problem Areas Identified

  • Year-over-year decline in conversions despite improved pricing and broader inventory
  • Temporary spikes in sales driven solely by paid campaigns; weak organic traction
  • Over-reliance on standardized, unoptimized PPC ads leading to wasted spend
  • Lack of brand-specific searches, despite having an established Amazon store for over 5 years
  • Difficulty expanding beyond a niche shopper demographic
  • Absence of A/B testing across ad creatives, placements, and messaging
OUR SOLUTION

A Full-Funnel Amazon PPC Management for Sustainable Growth

1

Problem: Sales Slump Despite a Competitive Product Line

Despite a strong catalog and competitive pricing, the client’s Amazon store was experiencing stagnant sales. Paid campaigns were active but weren’t generating meaningful conversions. Organic visibility remained weak, and customer acquisition was inconsistent.

Our Diagnosis

There was a lack of creative differentiation and audience targeting. The campaigns were generic, with no clear Unique Selling Proposition (USP) or defined customer persona. Ads were not tailored to buyer intent, and the product pages failed to convert traffic into loyal shoppers. A high cart abandonment rate further indicated a broken sales funnel.

Our Strategy

Better PPC Targeting

  • As a part of Amazon advertising services, we adjusted PPC campaigns to target diverse U.S. geographies and audience segments
  • Launched dedicated campaigns for institutional buyers, aligning with recurring purchase behavior via Amazon subscriptions
  • Differentiated campaigns based on end-use—self-use medical devices vs. clinic or physician-grade equipment

Penetrative PPC Remarketing

  • Identified warm audiences who had previously interacted with product pages
  • Created remarketing campaigns focused on re-engaging high-intent but non-converting shoppers

Persuasive Ad Displays

  • Designed Sponsored Product campaigns that directly addressed buyer pain points
  • Curated images in ads to highlight product relevance and boost engagement

Product Listing Supremacy

  • Enriched product listings with compelling A+ content, including explainer videos, infographics, lifestyle images, and branding banners
  • Ensured visual storytelling and feature clarity to support ad-driven traffic with high-conversion landing pages
2

Problem: Decreasing ROI on PPC Spend

The client’s PPC campaigns were driving clicks but not sales. Cost per click (CPC) was rising while conversions remained flat, resulting in diminishing returns and wasted ad spend.

Our View

The client had placed a disproportionate focus on increasing product page visits, without adequately tracking how those visits translated into sales. Our Amazon growth solution emphasized that true customer acquisition is measured by conversions—not just traffic. Upon auditing their campaigns, we found that several were not entirely ineffective but lacked optimization. While some simply required strategic adjustments for improving ROI of PPC campaigns, many others were draining budget without delivering meaningful results and had to be discontinued.

Our Strategy

Excluding Non-Converting Ads & Using A/B Testing

  • Identified low-conversion audience segments and paused ads that didn’t contribute to sales
  • Conducted A/B tests on ad copies using varied keywords and messaging to evaluate engagement potential

CRO-Focused Landing Pages

  • Restructured landing destinations—brand store, product listings, and category-level storefronts—based on campaign intent
  • As a part of CRO services, we optimized landing pages to improve user experience and increase inquiry and conversion rates

Proactive PPC Ad Management

  • Segmented campaigns by purpose—sales promotion, product value communication, or branding
  • Tailored campaigns by product type (e.g., consumables for hospice facilities vs. medical equipment for rehab centers)
  • Explored and refined ad placements, comparing top-of-search visibility against product detail page performance

Preventing Cannibalization

  • Eliminated keyword overlap across campaigns to prevent internal competition
  • Defined distinct keyword sets for each ad type (Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, Sponsored Display) using Helium 10 insights

The Problem: Poor ROAS with a Predictable PPC Approach

The client’s PPC campaigns delivered low returns despite aggressive bidding, primarily due to under-optimized product listings and an outdated storefront. Weak post-click experiences led to poor conversions and inefficient ad spend.

Our View

We found that PPC alone couldn’t drive results without strong support. To boost ROAS, we optimized product pages and redesigned the storefront to align with ad messaging, cross-promote products, and enhance discoverability through organic strategies.

Our Strategy

Coupons & Deals

Implemented special offers, Lightning Deals, and time-limited discounts to reduce reliance on paid ads and re-engage first-time visitors, repeat shoppers, and price-sensitive buyers

Product Bundling

Created high-value product bundles combining slow-moving SKUs with bestsellers, wrapped in 7-day promotional formats to boost average order value and sales velocity

Organic Boost

Leveraged post-purchase follow-ups and email review requests to collect authentic customer feedback and improve organic credibility

Video Extensions

  • Produced and edited branded video creatives for Sponsored Brands and Sponsored Display ads
  • Integrated relevant keywords into video metadata to increase engagement and highlight product features effectively

Brand Storytelling

  • Developed tailored brand stories for each product category using engaging visuals and copy
  • Strengthened brand literacy and discoverability while creating an emotional connection with the audience

The Problem: Lack of Market Intelligence in a Disruptive Category

Amazon’s medical supplies category is highly dynamic, with a constant influx of licensed sellers, aggressive pricing strategies, and evolving technologies. Price wars and promotional disruptions are common, making it difficult for brands to maintain a stable competitive edge. The client lacked visibility into how top competitors were adapting, pricing, and positioning themselves, which limited their ability to respond strategically.

Our View

To remain competitive, the client needed deeper market intelligence and PPC competitor analysis. Understanding which sellers were long-term category leaders versus temporary entrants was crucial. We also needed to map keyword and ranking data to identify performance gaps and reposition the client more effectively. With the right insights, we could fine-tune both organic and paid strategies to outpace competition.
