Setting SMART Amazon Goals for 2025

Goal setting is essential for sustained growth. Here’s how to create and execute Amazon-specific goals:

1. Identify Performance Gaps

  • Compare your current metrics to industry benchmarks and historical performance.
  • Pinpoint weak areas such as low conversion rates or high advertising costs.
  • TurnKey helps brands assess and address performance gaps with data-driven strategies.

2. Set SMART Goals

  • Specific: Clearly define your objectives (e.g., "Increase conversion rate from 8% to 12% by Q2 2025").
  • Measurable: Track progress using Amazon’s analytics tools.
  • Achievable: Base goals on realistic growth potential.
  • Relevant: Align Amazon goals with broader business objectives.
  • Time-bound: Set deadlines for tracking progress (e.g., quarterly reviews).

3. Develop Tactical Improvement Strategies to Address your Specific Goals 

  • Once you have set your SMART Goals, you need to list out strategies that can address those goals. For example, if your goal is to increase your  conversion rate from 8% to 12% by Q2 2025, the following strategies can help you get there:
    • Improve images
    • Launch Premium A+ Content
    • Test new keywords in the title 
    • Run A/B Experiments 

4. Break Goals into Milestones

  • Quarterly Targets: Establish smaller milestones leading to larger annual objectives.
  • Monthly Checkpoints: Every month look at your goals and the strategies you are implementing to get there, and evaluate whether these strategies are working towards your goals in a positive way 
  • Regular Adjustments: Modify strategies if metrics are not aligning with expectations.
