Tips on how to set-up your Amazon Advertising campaigns to A/B/C test your video ads

A common question we receive from advertisers is “How should I set-up multiple campaigns in order to A/B test different creatives?”

Because campaign manager only allows 1 video per campaign, you will be creating multiple campaigns (3 campaigns for the 3 video concepts in this example) in which you will keep your ASIN, Keywords, and bids the same across all.

  • First you will choose your keywords, we recommend about 30 keywords, make sure to select those that closely overlap with your ASIN title. You may also add any good performing keywords from your existing Sponsored Brands or Products campaigns.

  • Then, depending on your competitive analysis and category, adjust your bids competitively to give your creatives the best chance of showing.

  • Create 3 identical campaigns - keeping ASIN, Keywords, & Bids the same

  • The only change you will make is the video creative.

  • Once your campaign is live, give it at least 2 weeks to gather insights.

  • You’ll be paying attention to Impressions and Click-Through-Rates to determine how your creatives are performing. Of course you will want to determine what your own KPIs will be depending on your campaign goals.

  • You want to check-in on your keywords and adjust any bids; and as you continue testing best performers you may want to expand your keywords to help increase reach.

  • Campaigns created from the same Advertiser Account do not compete with each other.
