5 Actionable Steps You Can Take To Improve Your Merchandising Strategy

In pursuit of an enhanced merchandising strategy, there are five actionable steps you can take:

Step 1: Clarify Your Brand’s Value Proposition

Upon a visitor’s arrival at your homepage, it is imperative that your brand’s core offerings are readily discernible through compelling imagery and concise copy located above the fold.

Step 2: Optimize Homepage Accessibility

Customers should not be required to scroll excessively to access your product offerings. Acknowledge the reality of “scroll fatigue” and strive to maintain a streamlined browsing experience.

Step 3: Foster Brand Consistency

Consistency in branding is paramount not only on your homepage but across all facets of your Amazon presence. This encompasses elements such as color schemes, fonts, button placement, and sizing, extending from the homepage to subpages, and even to product detail pages (PDPs). It is advisable to formulate a comprehensive Amazon branding plan to align with the brand’s style guide and guidelines, thereby ensuring brand uniformity.

Step 4: Design for the Customer’s Shopping Journey

In addition to preserving a consistent design, it is essential to tailor your store to align with how customers explore and make purchasing decisions.

Step 5: Avoid Overwhelming Shoppers

Resist the urge to inundate your store with every product in your catalog. Instead, curate your offerings, spotlighting the products that exhibit the highest likelihood of conversion. Bundle these products within macro-level categories.
