What propelled Anker’s success with 30x growth in five years?

Anker’s marketing background

Anker Innovations’ business philosophy is to be product-centric and keep up with consumer needs, which matches up with Amazon's focus on quality products and customer obsession.

Anker grew their business on Amazon by helping customers discover new products, which helped the company become a leading Chinese electronics brand.

“In 2011, Anker Innovations started selling on Amazon.com. To help customers discover new products, we tried Amazon Ads. After we promoted a new product with Sponsored Products, we were able to support reaching relevant audiences.”

— Wen Junge, Online Marketing Manager, Anker Innovations

Marketing strategy

Be product-centric, fueled by research and development

  • Anker Innovations’ strategy was simple, focused on product innovation and improvement, and provided customers with quality products and services.
  • Sponsored Products helped customers discover Anker’s line of products and generate more customer reviews and feedback from users.

Expand the European marketplaces
