The adult toy industry is, for all practical purposes, banned in paid and display ads. In March 2021, Google updated its advertising terms of service, and don't allow non-family safe ads in image ads, video ads, and other non-text ad formats. This wording is interpreted broadly, effectively banning adult toy retailers from advertising, by having their products deemed not family-friendly.
With paid advertising out of the question, we pivoted to Fulfillment by Amazon. Many consumers start their search on amazon, and Dreampeach has much more leeway to advertise on this platform. This allows Dreampeach to build brand trust and customer loyalty via FBA.
Year
Dreampeach Overcomes Low Conversions and Builds Brand Trust
By leveraging Amazon FBA, Dreampeach reaches a broader audience, builds trust, and taps into the growing global adult toy market, which is projected to expand significantly in the coming years.
Dreampeach is an adult toy retailer with a mission to take the stigma out of discussing and ensuring sexual pleasure. The adult toy industry, and Dreampeach, faces many hurdles when it comes to advertising its products online. Most social media platforms have placed hurdles in the way of retailers, which can be attributed to outdated squeamishness, and puritanical views about the business.
So, how does a business build trust and customer loyalty when they can’t pay to advertise?
Amazon FBA
Instead of using Google to conduct product research, as of 2021, 71% of consumers will turn directly to Amazon to search for prices, reviews, or make a purchase outright.
That’s because consumers have become conditioned by the convenience and centrality Amazon provides. They know that doing product research and finding competitive price points is easy on Amazon. And it’s made even more so when the third-party sellers have great reviews, competitive pricing, and reliable fulfillment service.
Amazon Facts
