Women's vitamin brands sell into life stages, and the life stage decides almost everything. It decides which product a shopper needs, how long she stays on it, how the pack is sized and what a platform will allow you to say. Someone buying a prenatal is buying for a known number of months and then stopping. Someone buying for midlife may stay on the same pack for years. Someone buying iron is usually comparing forms because a previous one did not suit her.
We work with women's vitamin brands that already sell online, whether that is a single daily multivitamin or a range across prenatal, postnatal, cycle and midlife. The free written growth plan says which of the four numbers, visitors, conversion rate, average order or repeat purchases, is holding the store back, and what we would change first. The work is a base fee plus growth share, month to month.
We do not write efficacy claims. We write nutrient forms, doses, pack lengths, capsule sizes and certifications, because that is what these shoppers compare and what keeps the advertising running.
This shopper has usually taken something before, so she is not being introduced to vitamins. She is judging whether yours is a sensible swap, and she does it from a short list of details.
The first is form. She wants to see which form of folate, iron, magnesium or B12 is used, because she has read about the differences and because a previous iron may have been hard on her stomach. Naming the form in plain text answers the question before she has to ask it.
The second is the physical product. Capsule size, how many she has to take a day, whether there is a smell when she opens the bottle, whether the gummy has added sugar and whether the pack is a bottle or a blister she can put in a handbag. These sound small and they decide the sale.
The third is the pack length and the price per day. A thirty day blister and a sixty capsule bottle taken twice daily are the same length of supply, and she works that out herself unless you show it.
For prenatal and midlife products she also looks for third-party certification and for a line telling her to check with her own clinician. That line reassures her and it keeps the page honest.
