Try Amazon. Selling on Amazon is one of the best decisions anyone can make. This is because the platform boasts a customer base of over 300 million people and offers huge chances of profitability. Still, if you intend to sell on Amazon, you must be ready to do the work. The competition on the platform is fierce. As a result, sellers must go the extra mile to secure a part of the Amazon pie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gaining visibility is crucial to making sales online, and Amazon knows this. Hence, the launch of Amazon marketing services. Amazon is a goldmine for sellers who can leverage advertising. In this post, we&#8217;ll talk about everything you need to know about Amazon Marketing Services (AMS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69df4b0c81446\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69df4b0c81446\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#What_is_Amazon_Advertising_Services_or_Amazon_Marketing_Services_AMS\" >What is Amazon Advertising Services or Amazon Marketing Services (AMS)?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#Why_Do_You_Need_Amazon_Marketing_Services\" >Why Do You Need Amazon Marketing Services?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#How_Does_Amazon_Marketing_Services_Work\" >How Does Amazon Marketing Services Work?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#Types_of_Amazon_Ads\" >Types of Amazon Ads<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#Amazon_Sponsored_Products\" >Amazon Sponsored Products<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#Sponsored_Brand_Ads\" >Sponsored Brand Ads<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#Sponsored_Display_Ads\" >Sponsored Display Ads<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#Benefits_of_Amazon_Marketing_Services\" >Benefits of Amazon Marketing Services<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-9\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#What_You_Should_Know_About_Amazon_Stores\" >What You Should Know About Amazon Stores<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-10\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#How_To_Create_An_Amazon_Advertising_Plan\" >How To Create An Amazon Advertising Plan<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-11\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#How_Do_I_Qualify_For_Amazon_Marketing_Services\" >How Do I Qualify For Amazon Marketing Services?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-12\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#How_Much_Does_it_Cost_to_Advertise_on_Amazon\" >How Much Does it Cost to Advertise on Amazon?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-13\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/amazon-marketing-services\/#How_to_Maximize_Amazon_Marketing_Services_%E2%80%93_Optimizing_Ad_Campaigns\" >How to Maximize Amazon Marketing Services &#8211;

These tools are all classified under AMS. So, the term Amazon Marketing Services covers the set of advertising tools used by sellers to run and manage ads on the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The service launched in 2012, and since then, it has undergone a whirlwind of changes. As a result, AMS is now called Amazon Advertising Console. Despite the name change, many sellers still refer to the service as AMS, so we\u2019ll use both terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Other changes implemented include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Headline Search ads, now known as Amazon-sponsored brands.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sponsored Display ads, now known as Product display ads<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>AMS was the umbrella term for Sponsored Products, Headline Search Ads, and Product Display Ads. We will examine these advertising services in this post. But first, why do you need this service?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Related:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/how-to-sell-on-amazon-fba-for-beginners-a-step-by-step-tutorial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How To Sell On Amazon FBA<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Do_You_Need_Amazon_Marketing_Services\"><\/span>Why Do You Need Amazon Marketing Services?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>AMZ has continually expanded its advertising offers. First, it launched Sponsored Products ads. Next, it launched Sponsored Brands and Sponsored Display ads. Recently, the targeting options and ad types have become more versatile. Several options are available within a campaign, and they all work differently. So, you need to understand how they work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are over 2.5 million sellers on AMZ, and every seller wants a share of the pie, so sellers are up against each other. As a result, only the most strategic advertisers will get a sizeable chunk of the pie. There are several online marketplaces, and the majority have available advertising services, but Amazon\u2019s approach is distinctive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other marketplaces require you to pay upfront for impressions and clicks. In contrast, AMZ doesn\u2019t. Instead, you can decide how much you&#8217;d like to pay when a customer clicks on your ad. By doing this, you can stay within your advertising budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, AMZ has redesigned its advertising reports. The reports may not give you a detailed insight into your customers&#8217; shopping patterns, but, they\u2019ll come in handy in the initial stages of trying to discover what works best for your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your goal is to join the league of top sellers on AMZ, you cannot afford to do away with advertising. Thus, AMS is a must-use. Moreover, these advertising options help you save time and money and can help you build a credible brand.<\/p>\n\n\n<!-- Error, Advert is not available at this time due to schedule\/geolocation restrictions! -->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_Amazon_Marketing_Services_Work\"><\/span>How Does Amazon Marketing Services Work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AMZ Advertising offers the following services:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ad offerings that operate via PPC or cost-per-click.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ad offerings that operate via impressions (cost-per-thousand)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless of the category your ads fall in, they have a common goal. The goal is to increase your reach and enable you to make more sales. Ads often appear when shoppers are about to decide on a competitor&#8217;s product. This allows you to sway their decision at the last minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AMS covers the following:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sponsored products: Ads for shoppers who are searching for similar items on Amazon.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sponsored brands: Ads targeted at shoppers who are searching with specific keywords.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Product display ads: Retargeting ads for shoppers who viewed your listings or similar products.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Amazon stores: A new customized advertising feature for brand-registry sellers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For the purpose of this post, we will focus on the first three. But, we will provide some information about Amazon stores later in this post, so keep reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_of_Amazon_Ads\"><\/span>Types of Amazon Ads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Amazon_Sponsored_Products\"><\/span>Amazon Sponsored Products<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the most basic ad types, they appear on the right-hand side of search results. They also appear on the top or bottom of the search engine results and product detail pages. Also, they can be automatically generated (content-driven) or manually generated (keyword-driven).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So why should you opt for Sponsored product ads?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>They pop up randomly at every stage of the buyer\u2019s journey. Thus giving sellers a higher chance at visibility.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compared to other types of ads, they typically have higher conversion rates.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They are also easily accessible to buyers. This is because they appear between search results and product detail pages.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The pros of using this ad type may be enticing, but there\u2019s one con, or two. Competition is tough in this ad category, and only sellers who have the buy box can use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zonbase.com\/blog\/the-amazon-buy-box-the-importance-and-how-it-works\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Here\u2019s how to win the Buy Box<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sponsored_Brand_Ads\"><\/span>Sponsored Brand Ads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sponsored brand ads are often the first thing customers see on the search results page. A sponsored brand ad appears above, on the side, or between search results. As a result of the stochastic nature of these ads, customers are more likely to discover you. When effectively utilized, you can capture new audiences. Excellent use of these ads can increase the awareness and credibility of your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sponsored brand ads use a pay-per-click model. You can redirect shoppers to your store or product listings with brand ads. Furthermore, these ads allow you to use up to three images and even test your headlines and landing pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also possible to measure the effectiveness of your ads using the reports feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To use these ads, there are a few requirements:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Be a brand-registered seller<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Run a unique Amazon store<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stock best-selling products<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you tick these boxes, you should consider using Sponsored brand ads. They are a great way to improve your brand awareness. You can also drive traffic to your listings with these ads. However, with sponsored brand ads, you must optimize your listings regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To do this, keep tabs on your keywords and take note of the ones that do not convert. Afterward, take them out of your listings and keep optimizing as you go along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sponsored_Display_Ads\"><\/span>Sponsored Display Ads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These are cost-per-click ads that come in very handy when you aim to retarget your audience. Using these ads, you can show up in front of customers who have viewed your product detail pages or similar products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>This is the third ad category, so why should you choose this over others?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Great way to redirect traffic to your listings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enhance brand recognition among customers looking for products in your niche<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increase brand awareness for newly launched products<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take advantage of your competitor&#8217;s listing to increase traffic<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The benefits of using sponsored brand ads go without saying, but there\u2019s one drawback. This category of ads tends to have lower conversion rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"TOP 5 MARKETER &amp; AGENCY OWNER MISTAKES!\" width=\"788\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2bDt16Sm3ZA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_of_Amazon_Marketing_Services\"><\/span>Benefits of Amazon Marketing Services<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Essentially, advertising is about growing your business. And the easiest way to grow your AMZ business is to gain more visibility.&nbsp; Ads are a great way to showcase your products, reach your target audience, and make more sales. AMS lets you explore various advertising offers. Thus, you can develop a working strategy for your business. Here are a few benefits you\u2019ll enjoy if you use AMS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Customized Shopping Experience<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>AMZ has millions of brands and products. So the only way to gain customers&#8217; attention is to show them what they&#8217;re missing out on. With ads, you can capture your audience\u2019s attention through images and videos. These images and videos do the convincing, and you make money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Better Shot at Creating Well-optimized Listings<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Since ads need you to use keywords, you will have to research relevant keywords. It&#8217;s best to use keywords that have a high chance of conversions. You can use the trial and error approach if you don\u2019t know for sure what keywords will convert, or you can use the ads report inside AMS. This way, you can tell which keywords are not converting and take them off your listings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Improved Brand Awareness<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Ads are used by sellers primarily for this purpose. So if your goal is to increase visibility and be in your audience\u2019s faces, ads are your go-to. Also, if you sell private-label products, you should use Amazon Marketing Services, especially the \u2018Stores\u2019 feature.<\/p>\n\n\n<!-- Error, Advert is not available at this time due to schedule\/geolocation restrictions! -->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_You_Should_Know_About_Amazon_Stores\"><\/span>What You Should Know About Amazon Stores<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This advertising service is AMZ\u2019s newest feature. It is a customizable feature that is available to only brand-registered sellers. In brief, this feature allows sellers to create a customized shopping experience. Amazon stores work as mini eCommerce sites for sellers who want to display their products in one fell swoop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The storefront feature works best if you want all your offerings to be visible at a glance. It&#8217;s like an eCommerce site that lists only your products and caters to your brand. Plus, the interface is very intuitive and easy to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using this feature makes it easier for shoppers to find your product. This is because only your products appear on the e-commerce site. Also, sharing a readable URL and advertising off and on AMZ can help drive traffic to your landing page. By analyzing insights from your store, you can optimize your advertising campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.junglescout.com\/blog\/how-to-create-an-amazon-storefront\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more about Amazon storefronts<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Create_An_Amazon_Advertising_Plan\"><\/span>How To Create An Amazon Advertising Plan<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have decided to use AMS, it\u2019s usually best to come up with an Amazon marketing strategy first. Here\u2019s how to come up with one:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Craft Your Business Plan<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Decide what you hope to achieve, for instance, more sales or improved brand awareness. This will help you choose the best ad type for your business and the best metric to measure your ad performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Choose The Best Products To Run Your Ads With<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing the right products for advertising is crucial. If you run your ads with products that people have no interest in, you\u2019ll most likely not record any conversions. Conversions are easier for best-selling products, especially if you fix competitive prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Optimize Your Product Detail Pages<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Create product detail pages that are convincing enough to convert visitors to buyers. Using descriptive titles, relevant product information, as well as high-quality images is essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Test Your Ads<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Decide what works and what doesn&#8217;t and act accordingly. To improve your results, experiment with different ad types. You can also try out different keywords, target demographics, and content.

Manufacturers can sell their goods directly to Amazon through Vendor Express, and Amazon will sell the products and manage the listings on their behalf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Much_Does_it_Cost_to_Advertise_on_Amazon\"><\/span>How Much Does it Cost to Advertise on Amazon?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you read to this point and you&#8217;re really keen on scaling your Amazon business, then you&#8217;re probably asking these questions &#8211; Is Amazon marketing free? How much should I budget for Amazon ads?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, Amazon advertising is not entirely free. However, you will not have to stretch yourself thin if you want to run ads on Amazon. Amazon charges based on a pay-per-click approach, meaning that you only get charged when your ads are clicked. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also set a fixed budget before launching your ads so that once you reach your ad budget, the ads stop running, this way you limit your spending. So, how much do Amazon ads cost per click? Amazon ads can cost between $0.10 &#8211; $6.00 per click. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a general guideline, sellers should spend about 10-15% of their revenue on advertising. Also, pay attention to your ROAS to ensure you are generating enough revenue from your ad spend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Maximize_Amazon_Marketing_Services_%E2%80%93_Optimizing_Ad_Campaigns\"><\/span>How to Maximize Amazon Marketing Services &#8211; Optimizing Ad Campaigns<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_the_right_keywords\"><\/span>Use the right keywords <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Using the right keywords in your listings increases your chances of reaching your target audience and making sales.
