The supplement space on Amazon is a bloodbath—CPCs are sky-high, ACOS averages 40-50%, and competition is fiercer than ever. But here’s the truth:

1/ Repeat Customers = Lifeline

New customers will churn. Focus on retention through cross-selling, sampling, and loyalty programs. Without repeat buyers, you’re pouring money into a leaky bucket.

2/ Creatives Need to Feel Human

AI-generated “perfect” images? They’re getting lost in the noise. Real influencers, raw iPhone videos, and authentic user-generated content (think: a 60-year-old coffee shop owner, not a polished model) build trust.

3/ Adapt or Die

In 2025, it’s not just about PPC. Double down on AMC/DSP retargeting, and build communities to fuel organic content.

Key Takeaway : Supplements aren’t won by algorithms alone. It’s a long game—invest in systems that turn customers into advocates.
