7 Strategies to Improve Customer Retention on Both Amazon.com & Your Website

September 19, 2023

Customer retention is vital for brands looking to grow their e-commerce business and cultivate loyal followers. On both Amazon and your own website, implementing strategies to boost repeat purchases from existing customers can significantly impact your bottom line.

From personalized promotions to optimizing your product catalog, here are 7 proven strategies to improve customer retention on Amazon and your website:

1. Personalized Promotions:

On Amazon, tailor promotions for recent, high-spending, and repeat customers. On your website, extend loyalty discounts to your valued customers, ensuring consistency across platforms.

2. Smart Subscription Strategy:

Offer "subscribe & save" coupons to entice customers into regular purchasing habits. The initial discount pays off through increased customer spending over time. This can work on Amazon and your website.

3. Strategic Retargeting:

Utilize a Demand-Side Platform (DSP) for retargeting campaigns, especially for dormant customers. On Amazon, the levers on DSP allow for this granularity while also allowing for the exclusion of subscribe & save customers.

4.Product Journey Insight:

Some products lead customers to buy more products from your brand, others not so much. Identify gateway products that drive repeat sales by analyzing the LTV data of your catalog as a whole. From there, direct your marketing dollars to the SKUs that give you the most bang for the buck.

5. Boost Engagement with Social Posts:

Leverage Amazon and social media posts to build brand followership. Heightened touch-points amplify customer engagement and strengthen brand loyalty. Amazon Posts is free-to-use, and its "Follow" feature builds a connection, ensuring more frequent interactions for sustained retention.

6. Dual Approach Re-engagement:

Combine customer engagement emails (Amazon) and past purchase history (website) for a potent re-engagement strategy. Hit them with the one-two punch, DSP retargeting & email combo for a sure way to drive that re-engagement.

7. Ensure Product Excellence:

Make sure the products you are selling are top quality. High-quality products meet and exceed customer expectations, fostering trust and loyalty, which are essential for long-term retention. When customers consistently receive value, they are more likely to remain loyal, make repeat purchases, and advocate for the brand, solidifying the link between product quality and sustained customer relationships.

By focusing on winning back loyal customers and incentivizing repeated purchases across platforms, you can maximize customer lifetime value while minimizing acquisition costs.
