Spec Sales Funnel for Kindle Oasis
The client was launching an advanced version of their popular e-reader. The funnel was designed to position the product as the better choice against traditional books as well as older e-reader models.
The ideal customer was an “Every (Wo)man” with a core value of belonging.
The campaign was designed to move potential customers from banner ads and/or social media posts, onto an email list for a promotional email sequence and then onto the landing page, which in this case is also the sales page.

Does This Story Sound Familiar to You?
I gave up in the end. I just couldn’t do it. I know you’ll understand. I mean, we’ve all been there, right?
I was on my daily commute to London, passing the long train journey by reading a very popular book at the time—a book detailing 50 shades of a certain colour—you know the one!
But I just couldn’t concentrate because I felt so unbelievably self-conscious of the book cover giving me away. The knowing looks, the mocking sniggers, the raised eyebrows. In the end, the book went back into the bag, and I listened to some music instead.
But just imagine, I thought, if you could read whatever you want, wherever you want, without the side eye…
Whether you’re a girl who loves her romance novels, a guy who enjoys stories of superheroes or wizards, or just someone who’s intrigued by controversial political texts, we all have our so-called “guilty pleasures”.
So, if you’ve never used an e-reader before, it’s time to change the way you read!
Or wait, maybe you’ve already got a traditional e-reader and love it, but it requires two hands to read it or proves tricky to read in bright lights… we get it, and we’re here to tell you that it’s time to upgrade!
Introducing our newest e-reader, the Kindle Oasis!
Our most advanced e-reader yet has been designed with all readers in mind.
The ones who often only have one hand free (we’re looking at you, parents of babies and toddlers)
The ones who want to read outside (travellers and park-lovers, we see you)
And of course, anyone who just wants to keep their reading habits to themselves (that’s all of us, occasionally!)
So let your guilty pleasures remain your secret, and discover that using an e-reader has become easier than ever before.
There are so many benefits to e-readers, and even more so with the new advanced features of the Kindle Oasis – get ready to take your reading experience to a whole new level.
Stop thinking about the book, and let yourself become a part of the story.

So, here’s the deal. We know e-readers aren’t new. But the question is, why should you get one? Or even, why should you buy the newest model?
At Amazon we’re proud to position ourselves as e-reader experts. We introduced the original Kindle e-reader in 2007, which means we’ve spent well over a decade perfecting the e-reading experience.
Now, we have created a brand-new model—the Kindle Oasis—which leverages all those years of innovation and promises once again to uplift your reading life like never before. It’s the ultimate tool for allowing you, the reader, to enjoy books anytime, anywhere, no matter the environment.
We also want to make sure that this experience is accessible to as many people as possible. This is why we have tried to make our newest model as small as practically possible and as lightweight as we can.
Our new physical page-turn buttons are also positioned to make it easy to hold the Kindle and turn the pages with the same hand.
We’ve also ensured that our newest Kindle Oasis screen is glare-free and reads like real paper, even in bright sunlight. So, whether you’re relaxing on the beach or doing research at the park, you never have to worry about whether you’ll be able to see the screen clearly. And with our weeks of battery life our Kindles are known for, the joy of reading can go on and on!
We believe that a love of reading can spark joy, encourage learning and allow for one of the healthiest forms of escapism.
This is why we continue to push the boundaries of our e-readers, constantly improving them to help you lose yourself again and again in your favourite stories.
Now is the time to move forward!

Do You Really Need a New Kindle?
As somebody who has purchased books from us previously, we feel confident in saying that you love the experience of reading. We also understand that many people believe that this is connected to the experience of holding a traditional book.
At Amazon, we believe that paper books and e-readers alike are simply tools we use to transport ourselves into the stories bound within them.
Perhaps you feel that because traditional books are available or even because you already have a basic e-reader, you don’t need our newest model, the Kindle Oasis.
However, in our opinion, the Oasis offers advantages over both traditional books AND older e-readers!
Firstly, the Kindle Oasis is both slim and lightweight, which means that you can always take your entire library with you, making reading a pleasure that you can enjoy much more conveniently.
Our new page-turn buttons will enable you to read on those occasions when you only have one hand free.
Our newest waterproof protection means that, unlike with paper books or previous e-reader models, you don’t ever have to worry about dropping your Kindle Oasis while relaxing in the bath or being splashed while lounging by the pool.
You can also access our incredible library of books, magazines and even newspapers at the touch of a button, direct from your Kindle Oasis which means you can dive right into the story, the gossip or the news as soon as you wish. No more driving to the store or waiting for the courier to bring it to you!
The Kindle Oasis is our most advanced model yet. It promises hours of reading joy from a single charge on a waterproof and glare-free screen that can be easily held and transported.
Plus, with adjustable text size and lighting, you can tailor your reading experience to your exact preferences - something no paperback can do!
If you’re ready to enjoy these reading upgrades, please click below to take advantage of our offer - an exclusive 10% off and 3 months extra Kindle Unlimited membership if you buy before the end of this month!

Discover How the Latest Model of Our World-Famous E-Reader Can Help You Rediscover Your Love of Reading Today!
[SUB-HEADLINE]
Unlock the Secret to Enjoying your Latest Novel Without Needing to Use Both Hands!
[BODY]
Remember the time when you were desperate to read the latest chapter of that amazing new novel you bought, but you just couldn’t put down the baby and also couldn’t manage to turn the pages with just one hand? You felt so frustrated, and despite trying every possible position or combination of baby and book, nothing seemed to work! That’s exactly what I experienced until I discovered the new Kindle Oasis.
If you’re like many multi-tasking parents, you’ve probably experienced difficulty balancing parenthood and your lifelong love of reading, feeling the constant struggle of wanting to find ways to relax, while also caring for your child. It's not just about physically juggling them (!), it's about balancing your hobbies and passions with your parental responsibilities. You're not alone in this; many parents and carers share this experience.
That’s why Amazon have created their latest model of e-reader, the Kindle Oasis, with a ground-breaking solution designed specifically for anyone who only has one hand free to read. This ergonomic new model is not just another e-reader; it features an asymmetrical design with physical page turn buttons, making it easier to hold with one hand for extended periods.
The Kindle Oasis stands apart from the rest because of its easy page-turn buttons, adjustable light on the reading screen, and waterproof protection. Unlike other e-readers, the Kindle Oasis offers a significantly more intuitive reading experience, ensuring readers can fully immerse themselves in the story. This is what makes it the leading e-reader for multi-tasking parents.
With the Kindle Oasis, you get:
A screen size of less than 16cm x 14cm and a weight of less than 186 grams: This means our lightweight, slim e-reader will easily fit in your handbag, rucksack or holiday luggage.
Adjustable Warm Light: Enjoy a more comfortable reading experience by changing the colour tone of the display, allowing you to read in all lighting conditions, even during the night while you rock the baby back to sleep.
Physical page-turn buttons: Experience our new asymmetrical design with a thicker side for better grip and buttons on the same grip side, making it easier to read with one hand while you cook the dinner or feed the little ones.
Each feature is designed with versatile readers in mind, ensuring everybody has the opportunity to enjoy their favourite book around their busy lifestyles.
Don’t just take our word for it; see how the Kindle Oasis has transformed the lives of all kinds of book-lovers!
Erik R: “So nice, all screen settings are available to read in whatever circumstances you want. Bright sun, no problem. Reading before bedtime? Easy, just adjust the warmth. The two buttons are very nice to scroll through pages and even with the leather case it feels very light in your hand.”
How Kindle Oasis helped: Allowing readers to enjoy their book in any light, even at night or in bright sunshine.
Aries C: “Purchased this item because of the disability to my right hand. I like the lightweight and also the page turn buttons, much easier for someone who is left-handed and with disabled hands than doing a swipe.”
How Kindle Oasis helped: Enables anyone to enjoy reading comfortably for extended periods while using just one hand.
Ariana O: “Since I love reading, I enjoy taking a good book or two when I am out and about. Sadly, this sometimes can be a burden of extra weight in my bag or luggage, and most of the time I end up damaging the books. Additionally, where I live there is not a big section of English books. With the kindle, these two issues are easily solved! Large selection of English books, in a compact yet comfortable device.”
How Kindle Oasis helped: Never run out of something to read while on holiday, travelling by train or away from home.
These stories are just a few examples of how Kindle Oasis can elevate and simplify the reading experience of travelling bookworms and busy parents alike!
Imagine a world where you effortlessly juggle parenthood and your favourite hobby. Picture yourself gently rocking your child to sleep in one arm, while soothing yourself with a journey into a fantasy world held easily in the palm of your other hand, and realise how relaxed and fulfilled you feel. With the Kindle Oasis, this isn’t just a dream; it's a reality that our readers are experiencing every day. You too can reclaim your passion for reading and finally balance your family with your love of books!
