How to Identify Product Content Gaps Using Product Catalog & Listing Insights

You’ve got an amazing business and cool products, and you’re looking to level up your online game. You don’t have to look too far—soona is here to sprinkle some magic on your digital content. We’ve got the whole package, including a complete product catalog, digital asset wizardry, and listing voodoo.

Let’s dive into the soona universe and see how we can make your products shine.

But first, what is DAM?

Digital asset management (DAM) is software that stores, organizes, and retrieves rich media and manages digital rights and permissions. Digital assets include photos, videos, audio files, and visualizations. 

DAM systems centralize assets and associate metadata with each file, creating a single source of truth for everyone who needs to access it. This technology enhances content discoverability and collaboration, preventing data silos and redundant efforts across an organization.

Key features of DAM platforms include:

  • Centralized repository for digital assets
  • Metadata tagging for easy search and retrieval
  • Amazon integration for seamless marketplace listings
  • Shopify integration featuring Listing Insights to measure your creative performance
  • Real-time collaboration tools, including our media editor tool

soona + DAM = a match made in content heaven

The Product Catalog is soona’s very own DAM, and it provides a streamlined approach to organize and sync product data with marketing content effectively.

The Product Catalog brings together DAM and inventory management tools to help you connect your products to their corresponding photos. DAMs typically don’t intelligently provide SKU level or ASIN level views of your content, and inventory tools live in a totally different world from marketing and e-commerce publishing. But modern merchants need to understand the entire ecosystem of their products and how they’re presented online. And what sells products? Product photography. 

Our DAM solution answers this call, targeting efficiency across e-commerce platforms. You can integrate it with Amazon to get synchronized asset management and listing optimization. Inventory management through DAM ensures your SKUs are up-to-date and organized. It also allows you to track the lifecycle of each digital asset, which is particularly important if you have an extensive and evolving product catalog.

Other advantages of using the soona DAM include:

  • Reduced time spent managing assets by consolidating in one place
  • SKUs management that aligns with your inventory system
  • Enhanced Product Catalog maintenance via Amazon integration
  • Enhanced Product Catalog maintenance via Shopify integration

With the soona Product Catalog, you have access to advanced asset management tools, streamlining the process of linking digital assets to specific products. Plus, the media editor within the DAM further tailors the assets to fit the dynamic requirements of digital marketing and e-commerce brand presentation.

Identify gaps in your creative with the Product Catalog

Evaluating the effectiveness of product content is crucial for enhancing sales and conversion rates. Gaining insight into creative shortcomings can strategically guide content improvements.

Take stock of your current catalog

When managing a product catalog, it’s a good idea to take stock of your inventory to make sure the product images and descriptions accurately reflect your current offerings. 

The Product Catalog can streamline this process by providing a structured overview of all products and associated creative assets. By systematically reviewing these assets within your Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, you can pinpoint outdated or missing content. Accurate and up-to-date imagery and tech specs are key to maintaining effective product listings.

Here’s what you can do:

  • Assess current assets linked to each product ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number).
  • Compare your listings against conversion rates to identify underperforming products.
  • Update product images and descriptions to align with best practices.

Check the My Products tab

The My Products tab makes it easy to see when you haven’t created content for a particular product. It’ll give you a quick view of all inventory on site at the soona studio, so you can spin up a new booking quickly and easily. 

Optimize listings

Once you’ve identified content gaps, the next step is to optimize your Amazon listings to improve visibility and conversion. Use relevant keywords within titles, bullet points, and product descriptions to appeal to Amazon’s search algorithm, maximizing the chance of appearing higher in search results.

Integrate primary keywords in the title and main features for ASINs. And use backend search terms to incorporate additional relevant keywords without overstuffing visible content.

Leverage AI and technology for listing optimization

Optimizing product listings is imperative for e-commerce success. soona taps into AI technologies to elevate listings with data-driven insights and high-quality content creation.

AI-driven marketplace insights

We’ve got AI on our side! AI tools play a crucial role in understanding marketplace dynamics. soona’s Listing Insights uses high-tech algorithms to analyze visual assets on platforms like Amazon and Shopify. We’re like detectives superheroes, using data-driven insights to figure out how to boost visibility and consumer engagement.

By examining the effectiveness of images and videos, you can detect gaps, compare with competitors, and make informed adjustments to listings. This AI-enhanced approach will help with boosting visibility and consumer engagement through optimized metadata and descriptions.
