About The Client

Light-therapy wearable built for modern wellness routines.

AYO is an innovative light-therapy wearable in a category that required customer education before conversion.

The brand entered the market as a premium, research-backed device for people looking to improve sleep, focus, and energy through light therapy.

The problem

What was holding AYO back:

AYO was creating a new category, which meant educating buyers about light therapy before selling them a wearable. No sales history. No social proof.

No established demand for the product category

Zero Amazon sales history or reviews

Customer education required before conversion

High risk of inefficient launch spend

A complex product that needed clear positioning

Our approach

A Five-Step DTC Playbook

Olifant Digital ran AYO's Amazon launch like an in-house team, building demand for a product the market didn't know it needed yet.

1

Built a PPC structure for rapid data collection

Designed campaigns to gather performance data fast, with Olifant AI managing bids. In the first weeks, every dollar of spend was treated as information that shaped the next profitable decision.
2

Created listings that educated before selling

Wrote listing copy that explained light therapy before asking for the sale. Once shoppers understood what the product did and why it worked, they converted.
3

Positioned the product around clear use cases and benefits

Mapped AYO to the outcomes buyers actually care about: sleep, focus, and energy. Complex technology translated into simple, credible reasons to buy.
4

Turned early data into faster revenue

Used launch data to refine targeting, bids, and messaging quickly. Each optimization cycle cut wasted spend and moved more budget toward what was converting.
5

Shaped demand where buyers were already searching

Targeted adjacent searches, putting AYO in front of buyers already looking for sleep and wellness solutions. That grew revenue to $70K/month in a category built from scratch.
