Editor's Notes
- #2 [IR Rep]: Hi Everyone, good morning/afternoon! We’re glad to have you all here with us today. [IR Rep]: Leading the conversation is Oren Stern, GM of E-Commerce Marketing at Kenshoo. He will talk to you about how ecommerce sites, such as Amazon, have become an essential stop on the customer journey, as important for product discovery and comparison as they are for purchasing, the true value of this new channel, including how Amazon makes this happen. As an advertiser, if you aren’t considering ecommerce as a channel, you could be missing a huge opportunity.
- #4 [Oren]: We all know what our shopping experience used to be like. You walked down the street and if you saw something nice in the window you went in. Advertising was broadcast to all and was hard to measure. Today, the landscape looks a lot different.
- #5 [Oren]: With the rapid rise of this new channel, E-Commerce, a brand or retailer’s website has essentially become the new storefront to showcase and advertise products.
- #6 [Oren]: This reality of the “new digital storefront” has given way to a brand new shopping experience for consumers that’s exciting, but difficult for advertisers to navigate. It may be difficult, but it’s a world of rich shopping experiences - one where discovering new products and offerings can happen anywhere, anytime, and can be specifically tailored to your context and needs. All your shopping preferences, likes and dislikes, sentiments and emotions are all shared for everyone to see.
- #7 [Oren]: There’s immense product discovery happening across multiple channels, and the experience is increasingly personalized to the consumer. Also, the “consumer journey” is no longer linear in this channel - consumers jump from platform to platform, social media site to retailer site, on the hunt for products, or just making impulsive purchases on the go.
- #8 [Oren]: For example, we have product listing and text ads in Search as a native, engaging format where consumers can find and discover products quickly with just a few search terms..
- #9 [Oren]: And Facebook, Pinterest and other social platforms are no different. As consumers discover, consider, and engage with products in this graphic and visual space, the ads shown are native, engaging, and truly personalized to meet the need of the user.
- #10 [Oren]: In addition to search ads for discovery, social for consideration, engagement and sharing, our online shopping experience has become ever so immersive with voice activated platforms at many stages in the consumer journey. This makes advertising products even more difficult in an increasingly difficult and noisy world (Alexa, Siri, Cortana, Google Assistant), and with the creation of new shopping avenues, comes a highly tailored experience for the consumer. In this new era, finding that idea for a birthday gift or a home improvement project is always at your fingertips.
- #11 [Oren]: With all these platforms and changes in the market, it’s hard to deny that E-Commerce is now a native advertising channel next to Search and Social that can’t be ignored. While Amazon is at the heart of this experience, it isn’t the only player in this channel that advertisers need to pay attention to. There’s Walmart and Jet.com, eBay, Best Buy, Target and more, all of which are planning for and thinking about how to better focus product advertising efforts and build this channel into a viable, solid outlet for brands to rely on to deliver results.
- #12 [Oren]: All of this truly proves that it’s more important than ever to be present online in multiple areas, and that online advertising is now your digital storefront. This is where brands must showcase and advertise products to truly see success. E-Commerce as a channel provides the perfect storm where consumer intent and engagement intersect. Brands now have a platform to both engage their consumers at the point of purchase and throughout the purchase cycle. You don’t need to guess what the consumer wants, they tell you exactly what that is, you just need to make sure to effectively engage. Its also a pretty busy world, so you have to be able to rise above the noise.
- #13 [Oren]: All the media outlets and emerging ad destinations are very important and are proven to engage with consumers at a more meaningful level than the old days of blanket advertising. We’ve talked about the emergence of e-commerce and how it’s affecting product advertising, producing a new advertising channel, and how important it is for brands to be present and active in this new digital storefront. [Oren]: While E-Commerce is taking over, the major player here is Amazon, and Amazon is a major opportunity for brands. It’s a marketplace, it’s a retail and content company, and it’s becoming the next digital advertising powerhouse - quickly proving itself as a concrete avenue for product ads that really resonate with consumers. ——— references for figures on slide ——— http://totalaccess.emarketer.com/reports/viewer.aspx?R=2002141&ecid=dfda7bcd4b86471fba0d362c1f4a962e ^Amazon Advertising Stat Pack 2017, eMarketer
- #14 [Oren]: Amazon has a massive digital ad business, that’s quickly growing. It’s projected to hit $1.65B in digital ad revenue this year (2017), has 2 of the leading DSPs in US, and has ad properties both on and off Amazon.com that is powered by their own customer data - proven to boost sales. As food for thought, Amazon now is earning more digital ad revenue than some social ad destinations, and that ad revenue is expected to rise to $3.19B in 2019! [Oren]: Exponential growth is only caused by increased shopper behavior. As more people shop on Amazon than any other site, it’s becoming clear Amazon is such a powerhouse because shoppers that are active here are engaged and ready to buy. ——— references for figures on slide ——— http://totalaccess.emarketer.com/reports/viewer.aspx?R=2002141&ecid=dfda7bcd4b86471fba0d362c1f4a962e ^Amazon Advertising stat pack from emarketer
- #15 Approved.
- #16 [Oren]: Within Amazon advertising there are a few different ad destinations that are taking center stage, There’s Amazon Media Group (AMG), Amazon Advertising Platform (AAP) and Amazon Marketing Services (AMS). The one we’ll focus most of our time on today is Amazon Marketing Services, or “AMS”. AMS has 3 ad types - Sponsored Products, Headline Search Ads and Product Display Ads. ——— references for figures on slide ——— http://totalaccess.emarketer.com/reports/viewer.aspx?R=2002141&ecid=dfda7bcd4b86471fba0d362c1f4a962e ^Amazon Advertising stat pack from emarketer
- #17 [Oren]: Of the three ad types, 2 in AMS are bought on a CPC basis, and are keyword targeted - appearing on a product-focused search results page, while the 3rd is triggered by intent, almost display-like on the product detail pages either as competitive advertising or complementary products based on consumer clicks and actions. While these ad formats function similarly to Search advertising, they are very different - and powerful because of a few reasons: The terms consumers use to look for products are completely different from a regular search query on a search engine. These terms are more specific, since shoppers are looking to quickly discover, research, consider the products they are looking to buy. Amazon is conversion-focused as a platform. So if the product being linked to doesn’t perform well, it becomes ineligible to show - advertisers can’t simply buy an ad type - every product attribute must correspond to encouraging a conversion - including competitive pricing, out of stock and more. If attributes are not “buttoned up”, Amazon will not show the product at all, and a brand’s performance will suffer. ——— references for figures on slide ——— http://totalaccess.emarketer.com/reports/viewer.aspx?R=2002141&ecid=dfda7bcd4b86471fba0d362c1f4a962e ^Amazon Advertising stat pack from emarketer
- #18 [Oren]: All in all, the reason for the popularity of AMS and its ad types is because of how well they work for brands, and because Amazon has become an important stop for consumers’ product research - not just to purchase. These “search ads” on Amazon are even more likely to drive sales, because shoppers are in shopping mode - discovering, comparing, considering, and - most times on Amazon, a purchase is just a click or two away. ——— references for figures on slide ——— http://totalaccess.emarketer.com/reports/viewer.aspx?R=2002141&ecid=dfda7bcd4b86471fba0d362c1f4a962e ^Amazon Advertising stat pack from emarketer
- #19 [Oren]: Everything that Amazon is doing with its advertising business -- the ad platforms, the large database of customer shopping habits, their massive audience and hyper-engaged consumers, shows that Amazon provides a true opportunity for marketers to really meet their shoppers at that crucial point of intent and engagement. With its 183M monthly visitors, Amazon is unavoidable in the world of E-Commerce, leading the way in carving out the E-Commerce channel that we at Kenshoo believe is set to become the “third pillar” in digital marketing - alongside Search and Social. ——— references for figures on slide ——— http://totalaccess.emarketer.com/reports/viewer.aspx?R=2002141&ecid=dfda7bcd4b86471fba0d362c1f4a962e ^Amazon Advertising stat pack from emarketer
