Amazon PPC Results With the Strategy Behind Them

Z Natural Foods: 134% ad-sales growth, 18.87% average ACoS and 5.30 ROAS.

SalesDuo restructured Sponsored Products, prioritized the top ASIN opportunities, controlled negatives, harvested converting search terms and layered rule-based bidding onto a clean campaign structure.

Brownie Brittle: 90% average weekly unit growth without increasing the monthly marketing budget.

SalesDuo used search-term discovery, negative targeting, bid guardrails and placement-level conversion data. Impressions increased from about 2,100 to more than 14,000 in one week, while average weekly units rose from 30 to 57.

SKOY: 23% sales growth while ACoS decreased from 30% to 20%.

SalesDuo supported SKOY's Amazon listings and advertising campaigns. The client reported 23% sales growth while reducing advertising cost of sales (ACoS) from 30% to 20%.

Eco-Shell: 65% sales growth with ACoS reduced to 16%.

SalesDuo managed Amazon advertising and account operations for Eco-Shell. From January to May 2023, Amazon sales grew by 65%, while ACoS was reduced to 16%.

Where Amazon PPC Loses Profit

Discovery and scaling are mixed together.

Search-term discovery, proven exact-match targets, brand defense and product targeting need different campaign roles and controls.

Converting queries stay buried.

High-performing search terms remain inside broad or automatic campaigns, limiting bid and budget control.

Bids and placements ignore product economics.

An efficient campaign can still hurt profit if margin, inventory or conversion does not support more spend.

The advertising problem is outside advertising.

Buy Box loss, weak content, poor reviews, price gaps, suppressed listings and stock risk can waste otherwise valid traffic.

What SalesDuo Manages Across the PPC Cycle

Campaign architecture and targeting

We build and improve campaigns across Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, Sponsored Brands Video, Sponsored Display and Amazon DSP where relevant, with separate structures for discovery, scaling, brand defense and product targeting.

Search terms, bids and placements

Competitor keyword research, high-intent search-term discovery and keyword harvesting; negatives to block non-converting spend; product targets, bid controls, Top/Rest/Product Page placement analysis and dayparting. We move converting terms into better-controlled campaigns and review where and when ads perform best.

Budget, margin and operational guardrails

We adjust bids, budgets and pacing based on performance, product priority, margin and growth goals, with inventory, Buy Box, price and conversion checks. Where supported, Amazon Marketing Stream hourly signals inform intraday optimization to spot spend spikes, control pacing and reduce wasted budget faster.

Reporting, testing and scale

AI/BI reporting tracks CPC, CTR, CVR and wasted spend. A dedicated account manager turns PPC data into clear next steps and guides controlled tests, launches, scaling, budget planning, marketplace expansion and stakeholder-ready reporting.

From PPC Audit to Controlled Scale

1. Audit the account and product economics.

Start with a free Amazon PPC audit. Review structure, campaign setup, search terms, placements, bids, budgets, margins, Buy Box, inventory, conversion, wasted spend and reporting gaps. Get audit findings within 48 hours where account access and data completeness allow.

2. Set targets by product and campaign role.

Define ACoS/TACoS or contribution goals, product priorities and budget boundaries.

3. Rebuild campaign architecture.

Separate discovery, proven terms, brand defense, product targeting, launches and scale.

4. Clean and harvest search terms.

Add negatives, promote converting terms and isolate targets that need control.

5. Optimize bids, placements and pacing.

Use performance and hourly signals where supported; change one major lever at a time.

6. Fix blockers outside PPC.

Coordinate content, price, reviews, catalog, inventory and Buy Box issues.

7. Report, test and scale.

Test changes, measure results and expand only when economics and readiness support it.

Is SalesDuo the Right Amazon PPC Agency for Your Brand?

Good fit

✓ active Amazon sales
✓ meaningful ad spend or catalog complexity
✓ a need for clearer ACoS/TACoS/ROAS control
✓ Seller or Vendor Central
✓ willingness to address listing, inventory and operational blockers

Not the right fit

– a request for isolated bid edits with no account access
– no clear product economics
– no inventory or Buy Box readiness
– expectation of guaranteed results
– campaigns too new to support confident automation without testing

What Affects Your Quote?

The cheapest agency is not always the best choice. The right PPC partner should reduce wasted spend, report clearly, and connect PPC decisions to total Amazon profitability.

Monthly ad spend

Higher spend needs closer pacing and bid control.

SKU count

Larger catalogs need more campaign segmentation.

Marketplace coverage

One marketplace is simpler than multi-region management.

DSP or AMC needs

Advanced campaigns require deeper strategy and reporting.

Ad types

Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, Display, DSP, and video need different levels of support.

Listing support

PPC performance depends on images, content, price, reviews, and conversion rate.

Reporting complexity

Larger teams may need dashboards, forecasts, and stakeholder-ready reports.

Amazon PPC FAQs

Still have questions?

What is included in Amazon PPC management?

Amazon PPC management covers campaign structure, targeting, search-term research, negative keywords, bids, budgets, placements, testing and reporting. The exact ad types, marketplaces and deliverables depend on the agreed scope.

How do you set ACoS and TACoS targets?

We set ACoS and TACoS targets using product margin, sales goals, campaign history, inventory and conversion performance. Targets vary by product and campaign role, so we do not apply one benchmark to every brand.

When do you use automatic, broad, phrase and exact campaigns?

Automatic and broad campaigns can help discover relevant search terms. Phrase and exact targeting can provide more control over proven queries. We choose the mix based on available data, relevance, budget and conversion performance.

How do Sponsored Products, Brands, Display and DSP work together?

Sponsored Products reaches shoppers on product searches, Sponsored Brands supports brand discovery, and display advertising can reach relevant audiences. Amazon DSP may support broader reach or retargeting when goals, eligibility and budgets justify it. See our Amazon DSP service page.

How are bids, placements and budgets changed?

We review search-term results, conversion, CPC, ACoS, margin, placements and spend pacing before making measured changes. Adjustments depend on enough data and product economics; no single bidding rule suits every campaign. See our Brownie Brittle bidding case study.

How does SalesDuo use Amazon Marketing Stream and Ethan?

Where available, Amazon Marketing Stream provides hourly advertising signals, and Ethan helps flag pacing changes, wasted spend and performance anomalies. Our PPC specialists review the data and make account-specific decisions; automated signals do not guarantee better results.

What happens when PPC performance is limited by inventory, Buy Box or listing conversion?

We identify the retail or catalog issue, protect budgets where needed and coordinate with the account team to address inventory, Buy Box, content or pricing problems. Scaling may pause until the product is ready to convert.

How quickly can PPC performance change?

Some improvements from search-term cleanup, bid changes or structural fixes can appear within a few weeks. Sustained improvements in TACoS, sales and scale may take longer, depending on campaign history, budget, competition, stock and conversion. Results are not guaranteed.

Do you manage Seller and Vendor Central accounts?

Yes. SalesDuo supports Amazon Seller Central and Vendor Central advertising. Campaign execution and reporting depend on the account type, marketplace, available data and agreed service scope.

Find Where Your Amazon PPC Budget Is Losing Efficiency

SalesDuo will review campaign structure, search terms, bids, budgets, placements, pacing and the product or account issues that may be limiting performance. Where account access and data completeness allow, initial findings can be prepared within 48 hours.

Seller Central and Vendor Central supported. Results depend on account history, product economics and marketplace conditions.
