About The Client

Ceremonial-grade matcha sourced from Nishio, Japan

MatchaBar is a pioneer in the organic matcha space, sourcing directly from family farms in Nishio, Japan. Their proprietary ceremonial-grade blend was crafted alongside a chai tea master.

The brand offers both premium powdered matcha and ready-to-drink options, loved by health-conscious customers as a coffee alternative.

The problem

What was holding MatchaBar back:

Ad spend was draining, ACoS was unprofitable, and revenue had flatlined.

Years of agency churn left a poorly structured account

Product listings under-optimized for conversion

PPC disconnected from Amazon SEO

Unprofitable ACoS draining the ad budget

No cohesive strategy for profitable growth

Our approach

A Five-Step DTC Playbook

Olifant Digital rebuilt MatchaBar's Amazon channel step by step, fixing what was broken and building toward predictable growth.

1

Rebuilt PPC using the 1-1-1-1 system

Replaced the fragmented campaign structure left by previous agencies. Every campaign built for full visibility: one keyword, one match type, one target, one ad group.
2

Launched weekly A/B tests on hero images and copy

Set up a structured testing cadence across listings. Hero images and copy tested every 2 weeks, winners scaled and underperformers replaced.
3

Introduced product bundles to lift average order value

Built bundle offerings across the catalog. AOV doubled as customers moved from single units to multi-product purchases.
4

Connected PPC and SEO to compound revenue

Aligned keyword strategy across both channels so paid and organic reinforced each other. As paid drove sales, organic rankings climbed, and the revenue grew.
5

Launched Subscribe & Save to drive repeat purchases

Turned one-time buyers into recurring revenue. With matcha as a daily-habit product, Subscribe & Save lifted lifetime value and made monthly revenue more predictable.
