The Challenge
Beauty by Earth is a clean beauty brand that produces natural and organic skincare, haircare, and self-tanning products. They wanted to scale Amazon ads returns while lowering acquisition costs.
Although Sponsored Ads were delivering steady results, they sought a smarter, data-backed way to:
- Reduce CPC while maintaining quality traffic
- Improve purchase efficiency per click
- Increase ROAS across all campaigns

The Approach
Hector's Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) Path-to-Conversion dashboard provided Beauty By Earth with deep visibility into the sequences that convert best. It revealed that DSP-first journeys were significantly outperforming Sponsored Ads-led paths.
Guided by Hector's AMC insights, Beauty By Earth's media team implemented a DSP-led funnel strategy:
- Identified High-Yield Paths: Hector's reporting highlighted top sequences like DSP → SD → SB and DSP → SB → SD
- Used Full-Funnel Sequencing: DSP to reach high-intent audiences early, then followed with SD and SB to nurture and convert
- Leveraged Creative and Audience Optimization: Through Hector's audience segmentation and creative performance insights to refine targeting and messaging for maximum impact

The Result
- CPC: ↓ 22.6% – Reduced cost per click while maintaining quality traffic.
- Purchase Rate: ↑ 19% – Higher likelihood of conversion per click.
- ROAS: ↑ 55% – Stronger returns per dollar spent.
"By combining Hector's AMC intelligence with a DSP-first campaign structure, Beauty By Earth turned data into action, lowered costs, boosted conversion efficiency, and drove higher profitability across their Amazon ads."
