On-Amazon campaign drives sales for Brita®

Brita, a leading manufacturer of water filtration systems, worked with Amazon Ads to drive awareness and sales of their Brita pitchers with a cross-screen campaign on Amazon and Amazon mobile. Brita recognized that their Amazon Ads campaign would help drive consideration and sales on Amazon, but they were also interested in learning what effect the campaign would have on offline sales in traditional brick-and-mortar stores.

Through a mix of standard Amazon Ads post-campaign measurements and Amazon Ads partnership with Nielsen HomeScan, Brita was able to better understand the effect of their campaign on key success metrics, both on- and off-line.

The Amazon media solution

Brita and Amazon Ads crafted a campaign, spanning onsite and mobile, that aimed at reaching Brita Pitcher’s most likely consumers. By messaging Amazon customers who were in market for green home and garden products, kitchen utensils, and gadgets (among others), Brita was able to pinpoint the shoppers who were most likely to take action after exposure to their ads. With carefully targeted ads served across screens, Brita maximized exposure among groups that mattered most while minimizing wasted impressions.
