Create Auto campaigns on Amazon with group targeting

Image
This is an important and critical step while setting up your auto-campaigns on Amazon Advertising console/ Amazon seller central. While creating sponsored products auto-campaigns ensure that you set your auto campaigns to target groups by selecting "Set bids by targeting group" See screenshot below. This ensures that you are not overpaying for placing your products on substitutes and complements both of which usually have lower conversions, higher click throughs and lower sales ultimately resulting in very high acos. Select "Set bids by targeting group" and then change the bids for lower performing group and set it to low bids. Unfortunately this highly optimal setting is neither the default option of Amazon and to top it off, it's well hidden.

Star Performer Keywords

We are excited to share with you an upgrade to our AutoPilot algorithm. The new changes includes bonus points if your keyword has more than average conversion performance of your campaign and penalty points if the keyword is performing worse relative to other campaigns. This means that if a specific keyword has good conversion ratio in the last quarter and it is currently performing poorly, autopilot will be more patient and provide more time for it to recover. Conversely if a keyword has historically poor conversion and also the current conversion performance is poor, it will be double penalized. This effectively brings out the best keywords on top and removes the clutter of non-performing keywords. Remember that the more keywords you have, the longer AutoPilot will take to fully optimize your campaigns. Additionally there are bonus points if the keyword has generated more than average sales in the last quarter and penalty points if the keyword has generated subpar sales. Combining bo
