Lately, we’ve noticed a curious trend on Amazon: “deposit errors” on certain items, like drinks, where deposits aren’t charged, making the price seem irresistibly low. These “mistakes” go viral on deal sites and social media, driving up traffic and sales. But here’s the twist: the consistency of these “errors” is making me wonder… are they really accidents? Could Amazon be leveraging these “pricing errors” as a calculated marketing strategy? Here’s Why It Makes Sense: • Prime Conversions • Recurring Revenue from Subscriptions • Organic Marketing Reach Could this be a clever strategy Amazon is executing with precision? Or is it just a happy accident? Either way, it’s fascinating to consider how “errors” might drive new memberships, subscriptions, and sales.

Many Amazon sellers have audits done on their PPC campaigns, but here’s the critical question: Is your auditor actually analyzing your Conversion Rate (CVR%) using Business Reports and Brand Analytics? If not, you might be missing out on huge ROI potential, and possibly wasting your budget. Here's the reality: Amazon ads are only half the equation when it comes to ad performance. Yes, campaign management, keywords, bidding, and budgeting are essential, but they mean nothing if your product listing isn’t optimized to convert. Stay ahead of the curve by keeping product performance at the heart of your Amazon advertising strategy!

If you’ve noticed, Amazon recently swapped out the Placement tab for a new Bid Adjustments tab in the campaign interface. What’s behind the switch? One strong possibility is that AMC audiences will soon be accessible directly within Sponsored Ads. This could open up bid-boosting capabilities right from the campaign interface, something that’s only been possible through APIs until now. Imagine the possibilities! With bid boosting, advertisers could dynamically adjust bids based on audience data, potentially leading to far more targeted and efficient campaigns.
