78% of Monthly Sales Driven by VENDO’s Walmart Strategy
An established exterior protectants brand, with over 20 years of presence at Walmart and generating $30MM in annual sales, sought to validate online demand for a new innovation product. Competing in the DIY space and selling at major home improvement retailers, the brand leveraged Walmart Marketplace as a testing ground before committing to a broader in-store rollout.
The Power of Visuals: How Promo-graphics Fueled a 6X Growth in Cross-Promotion Sales
EBOOST, a leading brand of dietary supplements and energy drinks, had been offering Buy 2 Get 10% Off (B2G10) and Buy 3 Get 15% Off (B3G15) cross-promotions. However, these deals were only contributing 1% to total business sales, largely due to minimal visibility on the product pages. Shoppers were unaware of the savings opportunities due to a lack of engaging infographics on product pages. Without clear, eye-catching infographics, the promotions were getting lost in the noise. To improve conversion, VENDO recommended enhancing the promotional messaging by incorporating strategic, attention-grabbing visuals on the Product Page and prominently featuring the offers on the Brand Store Home Page. The goal was to increase awareness, improve shopper engagement, and ultimately drive higher participation in the cross-promotions.
Multi-Keyword Strategy Raises ROAS for Amazon Tentpole Events
Tentpole events like Black Friday/Cyber Monday (BFCM) and New Year, New You (NYNY) present massive revenue opportunities for brands that can secure top visibility. To maximize success during these seasonal shopping events, VENDO implemented a multi-keyword strategy to achieve a successful Page 1 ranking.
451% Increase in Purchase Rate Using VENDO’s DSP Strategy
A supplement brand was stuck in a cycle of stagnant growth with their Return on Ad Spend (ROAS). After exhausting Sponsored Ads strategies on Amazon, they sought a fresh approach to connect with consumers and reinvigorate their ad performance.
$7.64 ROAS at Walmart with VENDO’s Ibotta Strategy
VENDO wanted to increase awareness, traffic, and sales in-store at Walmart as well as on Walmart.com for an adult health & wellness brand. To do this, we determined that running an Ibotta rewards campaign would be one of the most effective and efficient ways, especially due to Ibotta’s tight-knit partnership with Walmart.com.
75% Boost in Ad Efficiency due to VENDO’s Segmentation Strategy
A brand in the sports nutrition category came to VENDO with the task of improving ad efficiency across the board without hurting top-line sales. VENDO immediately identified key areas we wanted to push and used segmentation as the main strategy to achieve our goal.

Walmart Luminate is Coming…here’s What You Need to Know
While Luminate Basic is free for suppliers, Walmart charges a fee based on a percentage of sales for Luminate Charter. With that upgrade comes enhanced features including detailed category insights, customer trends, and modular data. Most importantly for dotcom, it provides a breakdown of online pickup and delivery data. This ultimately allows suppliers to calculate their true online penetration, which is something we haven’t been able to do prior.
