Amazon Advertising Management

Stop losing money at every stage of the Amazon funnel

Most brands run Sponsored Products and nothing else. We run all four Amazon ad types as one coordinated strategy. Your TACoS drops. Your brand grows above the search bar. Visitors who leave come back.

The Amazon advertising problem

Most brands are stuck running one ad type and paying twice as much as they should

Sponsored Products alone cannot build brand awareness or recover lost visitors. Brands running only one ad type spend 60% more per sale than brands using the full funnel. The toggle shows exactly what changes.

Illustrative before/after metrics from our CCTV Security Pros case study — a single account, not a portfolio average.

Bottom-of-funnel only
  • You're bidding on the same keywords as 200 other sellers. No upper-funnel means no leverage.
  • Competitors own the headline banner above your own search results. Buyers see their brand first.
  • Shoppers who viewed your product and left are gone. No retargeting, no second chance.
  • TACoS sits above 25%. Ad spend is defending rank instead of building new customer demand.

  • Sponsored Products defends your high-intent keywords. Bid efficiency improves as competition for your terms decreases.
  • Sponsored Brands video owns the headline slot above organic. Your brand, not a competitor's, appears first.
  • Sponsored Display retargets viewers who didn't buy: on Amazon and across the web.
  • Blended TACoS drops to 12% or below as organic rank builds and upper-funnel spending reduces SP dependency.

Click any stage to see what we manage, what we measure, and what it means for your revenue. All four stages run at the same time.

1

What you get with full-funnel management

Six things that make the difference between ads that cost you money and ads that make you money

These six capabilities run at the same time, every week. Not one. Not some. All of them.

0%
Average blended TACoS

Managed accounts average 12% blended TACoS within 90 days. Industry average sits above 20%. The difference is upper-funnel spend reducing reliance on defensive Sponsored Products.

Daily
Bid management

Bids are checked every day against conversion data. Budget pacing runs twice daily during peak traffic windows. Your campaigns never go dark mid-day when buying intent is highest.

Dedicated advertising specialist

One named person. They know your catalog, your margins, and your peak seasons. When a bid decision needs to be made at 7am on a Tuesday, they don't need to read a brief. They already know.

What happens to your account each week

Bid review, keyword harvest, budget pacing, creative rotation. Every week. No exceptions.

Bids are reviewed daily. Search terms that convert move from automatic to manual campaigns every week. Budget pacing runs twice daily during peak windows. Creative rotates on a 30-day cycle. No week passes without real optimization work on your account.

Amazon advertising platforms

Four ad types. Four different jobs. All managed as one strategy.

Each platform serves a different buyer stage and requires different expertise. Redefine manages all four together. Budget decisions, keyword strategy, and creative testing happen across all platforms in one weekly cycle.

Sponsored ProductsPurchase stage

Your highest-converting keywords, protected and expanded

Sponsored Products wins keyword auctions when buyers are ready to purchase. We manage exact, phrase, and broad match campaigns. Winning search terms move to exact match weekly. Wasted terms are negated fast. This is where your ROAS is made or lost.

These are the published figures for one full-funnel client. Portfolio averages on this page (12% blended TACoS) are separate — not this account's ROAS or revenue.

From a single ad type to a full-funnel account: what changed over 90 days

Start state

Only Sponsored Products running. Competing on 200+ keywords with no upper-funnel coverage. Competitors owned the headline slot. TACoS above 25%.

Infrastructure

Full-funnel campaign architecture built: Sponsored Brands video launched, Sponsored Display retargeting activated, budget reallocated from defensive SP bids to awareness placements.

Optimization

Weekly keyword harvest cycle moved high-converting search terms into exact match. Negative keyword lists reduced wasted spend by 34%. Sponsored Brands video creative rotated on a 30-day A/B cycle.

Result
$15M

CCTV Security Pros: $15M in annual Amazon revenue. Blended TACoS 11.8%, ROAS 4.6x after 90 days of full-funnel management.

What they do

Security camera brand selling to residential and commercial customers. High-volume catalog across Seller Central.

The problem

Running Sponsored Products only. High TACoS. No Sponsored Brands presence. Competitors owned the top-of-search banner on their own brand keywords.

What changed

Full-funnel strategy built across all four Amazon ad types. Sponsored Brands video claimed the headline slot. Sponsored Display retargeted visitors who didn't buy. Keyword harvest cycle ran weekly. TACoS fell from 28% to 11.8%; ROAS rose from 1.8x to 4.6x within 90 days.

Why Redefine

Four things that separate real full-funnel management from agencies that just touch the platform

One named specialist. One person who knows everything about your account.

Your specialist knows your margin targets, your peak seasons, and your catalog structure. When bids need to change at 7am on a Tuesday, they don't need to read a brief. They know why that threshold exists. No team rotations. No handoffs. One person, accountable for all of it.

We optimize for blended TACoS. Not just the paid ROAS number.

Blended TACoS counts both paid and organic revenue. Most agencies report only paid ROAS, which can look great while organic rank decays. We optimize for the number that actually reflects your account health. As your TACoS falls, your organic rank improves. Your paid spend does less heavy lifting over time.

One-page weekly reports. Read in five minutes. No dashboard required.

Spend. Revenue. ROAS. TACoS. Keyword position changes. Commentary on what moved and why. What's planned for next week. One page. You don't need a platform login. You don't need to interpret charts. You just need five minutes.

All four ad types managed as one strategy. Budget talks to budget.

When DSP drives awareness and brand search lifts by 34%, that lift creates an opportunity for Sponsored Brands. When Sponsored Brands clicks rise, Sponsored Products can reduce defensive bids. These three campaigns need connected budget logic. Agencies that manage them separately miss this entirely.

Common questions

Questions brands ask before they sign on

Start with $5,000 per month across all campaign types. Below that, there isn't enough data to run meaningful optimization. Amazon DSP requires a separate minimum of $10,000 per month. If you're not there yet, we start with Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, and Sponsored Display. We'll tell you in the proposal exactly which ad types your budget can support. No guessing.

Both. Amazon's native automated rules handle routine time-of-day and placement adjustments. Your specialist reviews bids daily and steps in manually on high-priority keywords, particularly during product launches, sale events, and competitor activity spikes. We do not set automated rules and walk away. The specialist makes the decisions. The tools execute them.

Most accounts see measurable TACoS reduction between day 60 and day 90. Here's what happens: Days 1 to 30 are campaign architecture. Upper-funnel ads launch and begin building brand search lift. Days 31 to 60: the keyword harvest cycle runs. High-converting search terms move into exact match and waste drops. Day 60 to 90: the upper-funnel work reduces how much you need Sponsored Products to defend rank. Blended TACoS starts to fall. Accounts starting with TACoS above 25% tend to see faster improvement.

One page. Total spend by campaign type. Attributed revenue. ROAS by campaign type. Blended TACoS. Top 10 keyword position changes. Commentary from your specialist explaining what moved, why, and what's planned next week. You can read it in five minutes. No platform login. No chart interpretation. No 40-tab spreadsheet.

Yes. When advertising and catalog share a specialist team, the timing stays tight. A keyword added to your listing goes into the ad campaign the same day. A suppressed ASIN gets paused from active campaigns before it wastes budget. Agencies that manage these separately discover the disconnect only after a bad month. We can scope advertising as a standalone service or alongside full Amazon account management.
