Today’s guest is a lifelong entrepreneur, a former Amazonian, who started a company and successfully exited in 18 months. She is a branding expert in the home, fashion, and shoe categories. Dani May is the Principal Management Consultant at May Consulting & Strategy Development. Dani shares the secret to making a great first impression on your PDP, how to optimize your product images, and why your description still matters even when using A-plus content. 


Takeaways:

  • A customer’s first impression of your brand happens as soon as they land on your PDP (Product Detail Page). Making a good first impression means that your content made them decide to stay on your PDP rather than switch to another listing.
  • In order to keep customers on your listing, you need to clearly communicate the right message within that first impression which will lead to a purchase in the fewest possible clicks. 
  • The starting point for creating a great first impression is your listing’s title. When a title is filled with every possible keyword, customers may not trust it and will look to confirm the details in the title with the bulleted content on your PDP.
  • Your product images should convey a feeling that is slightly unexpected for what your product is that sets your product apart from other similar listings. 
  • You can use your product images to communicate a lot about your product by using infographics, providing necessary details like nutritional information, and developing a theme throughout the image gallery. 
  • Your bullets should be simple and clear. They should highlight topics but you should leave the explanations to the A-plus content. Your listing’s bullets should not be paragraphs. 
  • Even though the position of the description of your product has been moved lower on the PDP, it is still an important part of the content that Amazon’s search algorithm indexes, even if you are using A-plus content.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
