RoAS and Conversion Rate Metrics Added

 RoAS and Conversion Rate Metrics Added

Amazon added 2 new metrics to sponsored products – RoAS and Conversion Rate, however, currently you can only view them in the new search term view mentioned above.

For some reason, Amazon is showing RoAS as a percentage, which is technically incorrect, hopefully, this gets fixed soon.

Search Term Reports Added for Sponsored Brands

 Search Term Reports for Sponsored Brands

Amazon added a new downloadable search terms report for sponsored brands. This data was not available until now anywhere!


New (Re)targeting Settings Added in Sponsored Display

 New (Re)targetting Settings in Sponsored Display

In sponsored display, (which is the Seller Central name for off-amazon retargeting ads) you can now bid separately on retargeting your own product views vs retargeting similar product views

This allows you to bid higher on your own product views, which in theory should perform better than similar product views


Agency Friendly Settings Added

Amazon added a section to specify the Agency that is managing your ads on Seller Central, listing the world’s largest advertising holding groups – WPP, Omnicom, Publicis, Interpublic Group (IPG), Dentsu, Havas.

For most sellers, this won’t be of any value, but among other things, this signifies the shift in Amazon’s attention over the last 2 years – from 1st party focused, to 3rd party & marketplace, even for big brands.
