TUNGKOL SA EPISODE NA ITO
In this episode, join Mike and Mike Danford as they dive deep into a controversial Amazon PPC strategy that many sellers overlook but could save you thousands. Are your ads failing because you're not testing placement-specific campaigns? Let’s talk about what we uncovered.
Here’s the hard truth: most Amazon sellers waste up to 90% of their ad spend on clicks that don’t convert. Shocking, right? But it doesn’t have to be this way. In this episode, we break down why duplicating campaigns and focusing on specific placements like product pages or search results can revolutionize your PPC strategy.
Mike Danford, a seasoned pro from Adverio, shares how his team achieved single-digit ACOS by splitting campaigns into two distinct groups—one optimized for top-of-search results, the other laser-focused on product page placements. Curious about how this works?
We’ll see you in The PPC Den!
