Good morning,
A corporate buyer is not just choosing a gift. They need to see how their logo will look, get a quote approved, and know whether the order will arrive before an event.
Most bulk-order pages jump straight to “Contact sales.” YETI shows buyers what happens before and after that request.
Today:
We examine YETI’s corporate gifting page, find what an Amazon listing is missing, look at TikTok’s new shopping tools, and fix a dead-end store search.
Today’s Deep Dive
How YETI Makes Corporate Gifting Easier to Buy
Buying 200 custom gifts raises more questions than buying one tumbler. Which products can carry our logo? How large will it look? Will the order arrive before our event? What happens after we request a quote?
YETI’s corporate drinkware page answers those questions as part of the buying journey.
Show the buyer what they’re ordering
YETI introduces its drinkware as gifts for staff and clients, then shows the marking areas on different products. Buyers can see where a logo could go and how much space it has before contacting sales.

“We can add your logo” leaves a lot to imagine. A buyer who needs internal approval has something more concrete to show the team.
Make the order predictable
The page lays out five order stages: request a quote, approve the order, convert the artwork, produce the drinkware, and ship it. It gives an estimated time for each stage.

A buyer planning for an event can work backward from the date they need the gifts. They also know that artwork approval and payment happen before production begins.
Answer the questions that delay approval
YETI links to drinkware FAQs covering setup fees, logo files, placement, marking options, and packaging. These are details a buyer may need to clear with a manager, designer, or events team.

Once ready, the buyer can request a quote. YETI also links to its broader corporate sales program, where approved customers can view eligible products, customize them, review a proof, and order online.
What to copy
Choose the products. Start with the few items businesses actually buy in quantity. Show the available colors, customization options, and where a logo will appear on each one.
Map the order from request to delivery. Show when the buyer gets a quote, approves a proof, pays, and receives the order. Give realistic time ranges and keep them consistent across your page and FAQs.
Answer approval questions upfront. Cover minimum quantities, artwork files, setup fees, packaging, shipping, and whether a custom order can be changed or returned. If an answer depends on the order, say so.
Make the next step useful. Put a quote request beside those answers. Ask for product, quantity, logo, delivery date, and shipping location so your team can reply with a relevant quote.
Start with a clear page and a workable quote process. You do not need YETI’s self-service portal to make corporate buying easier.

The How-To
How to Find What Your Amazon Listing Is Missing
Shoppers are clicking your product for a search, but buying another. Amazon’s Search Query Performance report shows you where that happens. Two competing listings can help you work out why.
Step 1: Find a search where you lose the sale
In Seller Central, open Brands → Brand Analytics → Search Analytics → Search Query Performance. Choose ASIN View and a monthly date range. Find a relevant search where your share of clicks is meaningfully higher than your share of purchases. Ignore searches with too little activity to judge.
Search Query Performance shows where shoppers drop off for each search. Screenshot: SellerMate.
Step 2: Open the two alternatives shoppers buy
Open Search Query Details for that term. Pick two competing ASINs with strong purchase performance and open their product pages beside yours. Compare what the shopper actually sees: images, pack size, key features, price, delivery date, and reviews.
Ask: What can shoppers see or get on both of these pages that they cannot see or get on mine?
Step 3: Make the matching fix
They explain a feature you also have: Put that true detail in an early bullet or product image. Do not make shoppers hunt for it.
They offer a more useful pack: Test a bundle or variation that fits the search better.
They arrive sooner: Check stock and fulfillment before changing your copy.
They solve a complaint yours does not: Read the reviews. You may need to improve the product, not the listing.
They cost less: Compare what is included first. Test price only if your margin allows it.
Make one change, then revisit the same search after it has enough new data. The report points to a gap; the comparison gives you a reason to act. Amazon explains Brand Analytics here. It requires a Professional selling account and a Brand Registry representative role.
While You Were Building
In the Headlines
TikTok unveils Buy Direct and a shopping assistant
TikTok is building one-tap in-app checkout for brands and an AI assistant that can answer shoppers’ questions about products, sizing and delivery. It is an announcement, not a tool every brand can use today, but it could change where a TikTok ad’s sale is completed.
Shopify adds purchase-order reports to Analytics
New reports show supplier costs, incoming stock and purchase orders without linked transfers. Merchants can now review what is due and what it costs without piecing the picture together from exports.
Shop now syncs shoppers’ carts across devices
For recognized Shop users, a cart started in the Shop app can carry over to a store, and vice versa. Shopify says checkout and sign-in are faster too; check how this works on your storefront before assuming every visitor sees it.
On Socials
David Holmes spotted a smart second-order window at Haus: after declining three checkout upsells, he received a founder email offering 15% off another item that could ship with his first order. The useful moment is before dispatch, when an extra purchase can share the same shipment.
Ideas Worth Stealing
Test the Price of Your Bestseller
Brian Schouten’s example puts the same product at €43.95 and €49.95. The revenue lift shown in the graphic is hypothetical, not a real test result.

The idea: start with a bestseller that gets enough traffic. Split visitors between two prices, keep the rest of the page and offer the same, then compare profit per visitor. A higher price may convert fewer shoppers and still earn more. That is worth measuring before redesigning the whole page.
Daily Growth Rep
🔎 Today’s Growth Rep: Fix One Dead-End Search
Find a word shoppers use that returns no products on your store.
Why this works:
These shoppers have already told you what they want. A blank results page gives them nowhere to go.
A useful synonym can connect their wording to a product you already sell.
Your rep:
In Shopify Search & Discovery, open the “Searches with no results” report.
Pick one common term for a product you stock, then search it on your store to confirm the dead end.
In Search & Discovery → Search → Synonyms, add a genuine equivalent term. If the wording is not a true synonym, correct the product information instead.
Search again. Confirm the relevant, in-stock product now appears.
Report: “One dead-end search fixed.”
Make it easier to find what you already have.
In Case You Missed It
Yesterday, we used an expected acquisition cost to work out what an order needs to bring in, then showed how to build an offer around that number.
