Naturally Healing Lip Care for Everyday Comfort

Bee Balm is a skincare brand specializing in naturally based lip balms, crafted with a unique blend of healing and moisturizing ingredients. Designed for all seasons and available in a variety of flavors, Bee Balm products target both immediate lip repair and long-term protection. Their formula combines natural oils and waxes to heal cracked lips while using humectants to lock in moisture and prevent dryness from returning.

While the formulation and flavors stood out, Bee Balm’s Amazon performance was being held back by unoptimized ad spend, lack of conversion-focused creatives, and missing brand presence tools—limiting its potential for growth.

  • High Advertising Spend
    Ad budgets were being consumed rapidly without generating proportional sales, leading to poor ROAS and profitability concerns.

     

  • No Bundle Strategy
    Customers were naturally buying multiple flavors, but bundles were not created—missing out on higher average order value opportunities.

     

  • Inefficient PPC Targeting
    Lack of negative targeting meant irrelevant clicks were eating into the budget, while ACOS on product pages remained high.

     

  • Poor Placement Optimization
    Ads lacked strong presence in “Top of Search” placements and were overexposed in lower-performing areas, reducing conversion potential.

     

  • High ACOS on Certain Campaigns
    Certain product-page placements had significantly higher ACOS, but budget allocation wasn’t adjusted to focus on profitable channels.
🎯 PPC Optimization & Bundling Strategy
  • Consumer Behavior Analysis – Studied purchase patterns and discovered customers often bought multiple flavors together, indicating a demand for bundled products.

  • Bundle Creation – Designed and launched new product bundles (multi-flavor packs) to increase average order value and improve cost-per-sale.

  • Portfolio & Campaign Restructuring – Organized PPC campaigns into clear portfolios by product type and bundle set, allowing more precise performance tracking and budget control.

  • Negative Targeting Implementation – Removed irrelevant and low-converting search terms to eliminate wasted ad spend.

  • Placement Optimization – Shifted investment toward “Top of Search” and other high-conversion placements while reducing spend on poor-performing product-page ads.

  • Budget Reallocation – Redirected funds from high-ACOS campaigns to top-performing SKUs and bundles to maximize ROAS.
🖼️ Creative & Brand Presence Enhancement
  • Listing Image Overhaul – Produced new high-quality, flavor-specific product images showing texture, usage context, and benefits.

  • A+ Content Development – Created rich A+ content to educate customers about Bee Balm’s natural healing ingredients, flavor variety, and long-term lip care benefits.

  • Lifestyle & Infographic Visuals – Added images that clearly communicated use cases, natural origins of ingredients, and the moisturizing/healing effect on lips.

  • Storefront Design – Built a visually appealing Amazon Storefront organized by flavor category and bundle type to improve navigation and encourage upselling.
📊 Data-Driven Scaling
  • ACOS Reduction Strategy – Closely monitored campaign-level performance, cutting underperforming keywords while scaling profitable ones.

  • Seasonal Budget Adjustments – Increased bids and budgets strategically during high-demand periods (winter/dry seasons) for maximum sales impact.

  • Ongoing Performance Review – Implemented weekly performance audits to quickly adapt bidding strategies, add new keywords, and optimize creatives based on data trends.

  • Sales Doubled after strategic PPC restructuring and bundling implementation.

  • ACOS Significantly Reduced through budget reallocation, placement optimization, and negative targeting.

  • Average Order Value Increased via bundle offers and cross-flavor promotions.

  • Brand Perception Improved with premium listing images, A+ Content, and a professional Amazon Storefront.

  • Better Ad Efficiency with higher share of “Top of Search” placements driving quality traffic and stronger conversions.
