Amazon introduced “Amazon Customer Engagement” in 2022, which allows Brands to engage with Amazon shoppers based on customers’ engagement points on Amazon’s website and who follow their store or brand. With the Tailored Audiences tool, sellers can now email customers who have purchased their brand in the past twelve months.
Amazon sellers have asked Amazon for years to allow them to send marketing emails to their customers in addition to essential transactional emails post-purchase since custom email marketing has a higher conversion rate than other marketing mediums.
This new brand-tailored promotion allows Amazon sellers to connect with customers more meaningfully and build more personalized relationships with them.
Since piloting our Amazon Customer Engagement tool last year, you asked for new capabilities to reach customers.

What are the best practices for Amazon Brand Tailored Promotions
Brand-tailored promotions can potentially be highly effective for brands. In my opinion, here are some best practices going forward for using Brand Tailored Promotions:
Make use of abandoned carts and recent purchase customer segments. These segments have been proven to have great conversation rates for e-commerce. It’s the go-to segment for most e-commerce marketers.
Since Amazon restricts Brand tailored promotions for 90 days, You will need to re-create your campaigns after every 90 days.
