Prime Day 2025 is no longer just a flash sale. With the event stretched to four days this year, it has evolved into a massive shopping festival that demands far more than short-term discounts. To compete, brands need a refined strategy that balances timing, consistency, and adaptability.

The extended format means customer journeys are now longer and more layered. Shoppers are browsing, comparing, and making decisions at different points across the four days. That’s why brands must go beyond one-off promotions and build an integrated funnel strategy that ties together product page optimization, review management, creative refreshes, and agile PPC advertising.
Take the example of Doctor By, a Korean pet brand. Instead of treating Prime Day as a short-term sales spike, they worked with DISRUPT to craft a precision campaign, optimizing in real time and preparing well in advance. The result? Their core keywords broke into Amazon’s top organic rankings, and their cat herbal supplements landed in the Top 10 of their category.
This illustrates an important truth: Prime Day success is less about clicks and traffic, and more about meaningful engagement and conversions.
With Prime Day extended to four days, when and where you spend your ad dollars matters more than how much you spend.
Many brands still front-load budgets on Day 1, but recent data shows a back-loaded strategy often delivers stronger ROAS. Customers tend to explore during the first half and convert later, which makes live monitoring and rapid campaign adjustments essential. Amazon PPC plays a critical role here, giving brands the ability to track shopper behavior in real time and deliver targeted messages where they’re most likely to convert.
At DISRUPT, we’ve put this into practice with leading K-beauty brands like Biodance. By segmenting ads, testing creatives, and distributing budgets across the funnel, we helped drive a 200% lift in conversion rates from clicks to purchases.
Prime Day wins don’t come from how much you spend, but from how intelligently you spend it. That means balancing immediate ad performance with long-term brand positioning.
Too many brands treat Prime Day as a one-off event. But the real growth opportunity lies in what comes next.
Today’s shoppers value consistency and trust over one-time discounts. Reviews, retention, and repeat purchases are what create a second sales wave long after the event ends. Brands need to think about the full journey: if Prime Day brings in first-time buyers, the follow-up should turn them into loyal customers.
This requires a systemized approach: automated review requests, follow-up promotions, and brand storytelling that deepens connection. It also calls for disciplined Amazon operations: customer communication, inventory planning, review management, and promotion sequencing.
Through this process, DISRUPT has helped brands like Biodance not only scale sales during Prime Day but also hold the number-one spot in their Amazon categories year-round.
Prime Day 2025 is bigger and longer than ever, but the opportunity doesn’t end when the deals expire. With the right PPC strategy and post-event systems in place, brands can turn a four-day shopping festival into long-term, global growth.
