Pure Encapsulations

“In 2012-2013, grey-market distribution and product diversion (especially on Amazon) was damaging brand integrity and relationships with our most valued health practitioner customers. Our brands were inaccurately represented, growing out of control, at ever increasing discount prices, and distributed by grey-market unauthorized resellers posing as HCPs, violating MAP policy.” — Adam Branfman, E-Business Director, Professional Brands at Atrium Innovations (Pure)

- Threatened relationships with trusted healthcare practitioner customers.

- Inaccurate product information spread from unauthorized sellers.

Spectra Baby grew their ecommerce business on Amazon and other markets with Pattern

“We were selling directly to Amazon, which was a big mistake because then our pricing strategy went nowhere. Anyone who could fog a mirror was selling Spectra’s products too and from a wholesaler standpoint. We really needed the reporting, we needed the data, we needed a partner that understood the marketplace.” — Chris Mayhew, Spectra Baby USA Sales Executive

Our ecommerce growth experts will walk you through what a Pattern partnership looks like for you in Greater China.

Let's Talk About Partnership

Spectra Baby USA needed to clean up their Amazon channel.

Then we connected them with legal counsel for MAP policy creation and legal enforcement assistance. Finally, Pattern helped Spectra with real-time MAP compliance and growth data from our Predict software.

Through Pattern's Amazon experts, we helped Spectra Baby create winning strategies to streamline revenue growth, increase Buy Box ownership to 91%, optimize all listings, and gain back brand control. When we partnered with Spectra we went all-in to get great—not just good—results.

Yogi Tea's ecommerce growth case study with Pattern

Yogi Tea

Unauthorized seller activity online was resulting in poor customer experience, and Yogi wasn't able to consistently enforce quality controls and brand standards. Yogi needed the ability to control Amazon product listings to ensure accuracy. "We were challenged to meet the ever-changing and increasing demands of ecommerce retailers and shoppers while maintaining quality and brand equity." — Robin Gabel, National Account Manager, Yogi Tea

First, Pattern's compliance monitoring software Predict identified unauthorized sellers and employed rules-based advertising tools. Then we connected Yogi to legal counsel for  assistance removing unauthorized sellers. Finally, a personal Brand Manager became an extension of Yogi's team, helping them enhance the customer experience, increase sales volume, and simplify supply chain, allowing Yogi to move strategic company employees to other key business objectives.

Through our Predict compliance software, over 90% of Yogi Tea sold on Amazon is now coming from Pattern, supporting the customer experience and upholding product quality standards. In addition, Pattern's SEO and Amazon strategies have upped Yogi sales and Yogi's ranking to the top 10 search results.
