IRIS USA drives sales and awareness with Amazon Ads

IRIS USA, Inc., a manufacturer of pet products and home organisation solutions, sought advertising tactics to raise awareness and consideration of the Iris Pet Play Pen during the festive season. The campaign timing created an opportunity to capitalise on the increased Amazon.com traffic and the preparatory mindset of pet owners and gift givers during the festive season. Amazon Ads brought IRIS impactful and wide-reaching advertising solutions to reinforce the Iris Pet Play Pen as an ideal festive gift for both pets and pet lovers.

The Amazon Ads solution

To achieve this combination of efficient scale and consumer impact, Amazon Ads targeted customers that were in-market to buy dog supplies across the Amazon DSP and Fire tablets. The Amazon DSP creative featured customer reviews for the Iris Pet Play Pen, reinforcing the idea that it was a must-purchase for pets during the festive season. The effective Fire tablet wake screen creative acted as an awareness and traffic driver due to its highly visible full-screen presence. With this combination of tactics, Amazon Ads helped IRIS meet its goals of increased consumer awareness and consideration.
