Kaspien Holdings Inc, a leading e-commerce marketplace growth platform, released a new feature within their Amazon PPC software, AdManager. This new feature enables AdManager software users to manage another campaign type, Sponsored Brands Video, directly within AdManager.

By managing this ad type within AdManager, as opposed to exclusively in Amazon’s Advertising portal within Seller Central, advertisers can automate optimizations (including bid-up and bid-down optimizations), add new high-converting keywords from the Search Term Report, and add low-converting keywords as negative keywords. It also saves time for manual optimizations by allowing users to adjust all keywords, ads, ad groups, or campaigns at once via a centralized keywords table.

AdManager also enhances the efficiency of Sponsored Brands Video campaigns through a combination of value-based and rule-based bidding, which enables optimizations to be more nuanced, precise, and efficient. Budget optimization can also be automated to ensure ads remain running through the day, an increasingly important aspect of campaign management as cost-per-click continues to rise on Amazon.

Additionally, advertisers that are managing Sponsored Brands Video campaigns with Amazon’s Seller Central can only view campaign performance data from the trailing 90 days. To retain access to historical data beyond 90 days, advertisers must export the data. AdManager solves these issues by not only collecting data from the lifetime of the campaign, but also by presenting it in a single place, so users can easily assess campaign performance and make strategic improvements.

Kaspien’s advertising team has found the eye-catching nature of Sponsored Brands Video ads enables them to highlight products’ unique selling proposition better than any other ad type on Amazon. According to Biteable, viewers retain 95% of a message when watching a video compared to retaining only 10% of that message when reading it in text, reinforcing the power behind video ads.
