Understanding the Challenges
Brands on Amazon sometimes inadvertently target the same audience with multiple ads. This leads to overexposure and redundancy, as customers are bombarded with repetitive ads. Such overexposure not only fails to yield additional results but can also annoy potential customers, negatively affecting their perception of the brand and products. Furthermore, duplication in ad spend means that advertisers are investing money in multiple ads reaching the same audience. As a result, they might not be efficiently allocating their ad budget, leading to decreased ROAS.
Fill in the missing puzzle pieces with critical data for organic or paid ad campaigns (e.g. Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brand Videos, etc.) such as conversion by segment with impressions, impressions frequency, impressions by hour, New-To-Brand, path to Conversion, and more. This is where Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) comes into play, offering a powerful solution to minimize these issues and optimize advertising strategies to lead to a significant increase in profits.

The Power of Amazon Marketing Cloud
AMC, or Amazon Marketing Cloud, is much more than a tool for data analysis. It’s a cloud-based clean room solution designed with strict adherence to privacy. Its privacy-safe environment ensures that all advertiser data is pseudonymized, with strict compliance to Amazon’s privacy policies. Additionally, any signals provided by advertisers cannot be exported or accessed by Amazon, and advertisers can only access aggregated, anonymous outputs from AMC.
AMC offers integrated cross-platform analytics. This becomes particularly useful for marketers who employ multi-channel strategies, using platforms like Facebook or Google ads to drive traffic to their Amazon store. The ability to examine and measure the performance of different advertising platforms in one place enhances the efficiency of marketing efforts and can lead to more accurate and actionable insights.
Amazon Marketing Cloud provides data-driven insights that enable brands to comprehensively analyze their ad performance. By understanding the effectiveness of each ad campaign, advertisers can fine-tune their strategies and avoid overexposure and duplication. The custom attribution feature in AMC allows advertisers to credit different touchpoints, providing a clearer picture of the contribution of various media and campaigns in driving customer engagement and sales both on and off Amazon.
iDerive AMC Dashboards Empower Brands To Enhance Strategy

Precise Targeting and Efficient Ad Spend
One of the standout benefits of Amazon Marketing Cloud is the ability for marketers to build audiences and filter out loyal purchasers. By doing so, marketers can avoid overexposing these customers to ads, optimizing the return on investment (ROI). The AMC’s audience insights feature gives advertisers an understanding of the composition of ad-exposed audiences and attributes of engaging audience groups. This nuanced approach to targeting helps in the effective deployment of advertising resources.
With AMC’s precise targeting options, brands can focus their ads on the most relevant and receptive audience segments. By eliminating overlapping ad targeting, advertisers can allocate their ad spend more efficiently, ensuring that every dollar invested yields maximum returns. This optimization leads to enhanced ROAS and contributes to a more cost-effective advertising approach.
Maintaining a Positive Customer Experience
Reducing overexposure is not just about optimizing ad spend; it also plays a crucial role in maintaining a positive customer experience. Customers are more likely to have a favorable perception of a brand when they are not bombarded with repetitive ads. By using AMC to strike the right balance between brand visibility and customer satisfaction, brands can ensure a positive customer experience that can lead to increased brand loyalty and higher conversion rates.
