UEI Test Instruments — Twice the revenue. Profit grew faster.

Overview

Double the revenue. Same 10% TACoS.

UEI came to Zelevate as a $1.4M Amazon account. The job was to scale it without advertising eating a bigger share of every sale. Zelevate rebuilt the PPC structure, secured the Buy Box, and tightened the listings, which doubled revenue while TACoS stayed at about 10%.

The account

$136K in January 2024. $284K in December 2025.

Monthly revenue climbed from $136K in January 2024 to $284K in December 2025.

The challenge

Sales had fallen 76% in four months

Before Zelevate, UEI's Amazon sales were sliding fast, and advertising had no steady direction. Ads went from expensive to switched off, with nothing in between. The brand needed a setup that could win back sales and keep growing without ad costs running away.

Sales in freefall

Monthly revenue dropped from $113K in January 2023 to $27K in May 2023.

Ads spending too much, then nothing

TACoS was around 20% in January and February, then 0% in March and April.

No stable base to grow from

With sales and ads both swinging month to month, there was no dependable engine for ranking or steady revenue.

The approach

The approach

Zelevate focused on two things: getting more of the right traffic, and making sure that traffic converted.

PPC management

Exact-match campaigns on the most relevant keywords to build rankings. Phrase and Broad campaigns ran alongside them to find new search terms and pick up easy sales.

Pricing automation

Repricing rules built to hold the Buy Box at 100%, so no ad-driven click converted for another seller.

Listing optimization

High-relevance keywords worked into titles, bullets, and descriptions — helping organic discovery and giving paid traffic a better page to land on.

Creator Connections

Amazon creator campaigns to bring in social-proof traffic outside regular PPC.

Coupon strategy

Targeted coupons during competitive periods to lift click-through and conversion.

Ongoing reviews

Regular performance reviews to adjust targeting and catalog changes quickly.

Results

Three years, twice the revenue

Three years, twice the revenue, and ad efficiency that held steady throughout.
