How to create a winning brief for your Amazon project

To begin, clearly define your campaign objectives. Ask yourself what do you hope to achieve with this campaign – are you looking to increase sales, improve brand awareness, or enhance product visibility? By establishing clear goals, you provide direction for the project. Additionally, determine how you will measure success. Define specific metrics such as sales volume, conversion rate or average order value to ensure your objectives are quantifiable and trackable.

Visual Assets:

• Primary Images: The main product images that customers see first.
• Secondary Images: Additional images showcasing product features, usage, or benefits.
• Brand Store: A customizable storefront on Amazon to showcase your brand and products.
• A+ Content: Enhanced product detail pages with rich media and storytelling.
• A+ Premium: A premium version of A+ content with additional features and customization options.
• Product Detail Pages: The standard product pages on Amazon.

Other Assets:

• Product Descriptions: Detailed descriptions of each product.
• Keyword Research: Relevant keywords to optimize your product listings.
• Copywriting: Engaging and persuasive product copy.

Establishing a clear timeline for each phase of the project is crucial. From asset creation to launch, define specific deadlines for each task. Breaking the project down into smaller milestones with defined deadlines can help keep the team on track and ensure timely progress. It is also important to account for potential delays or unforeseen challenges by incorporating contingency planning into your timeline.

A well-defined internal review process is essential for maintaining quality and consistency. Identify the stakeholders who need to review and approve the assets before launch. Determine the frequency and duration of review cycles to ensure timely feedback. Additionally, establish a clear process for providing and addressing feedback, making it easier to implement changes and improvements efficiently.

Before diving into asset creation, assess the availability of existing assets. Identify any existing materials that can be repurposed or used as a starting point, which can save time and resources. Determine which assets need to be created from scratch and specify the required file formats and specifications for all new assets. This assessment will help streamline the production process and ensure that all necessary materials are available when needed.

Clearly listing all products included in the project is vital for organization and clarity. Specify the type of assets needed for each product, such as primary images, secondary images, and A+ content. Indicate the quantities of each asset required to ensure comprehensive coverage for each product. Providing detailed specifications helps avoid confusion and ensures that all team members are aligned on the project’s requirements.
