Summary
In this episode, Mike and Dan Head of AMZ Elite break down three weekly Amazon PPC tasks that actually move performance today. We focus on what’s working now—covering how Dan reviews N-gram analysis and N-gram ASINs each week to identify hidden waste and new opportunities. He explains how he uses ACOS Power Ratio to judge keyword efficiency beyond surface-level ACOS, and how a simple CVR sheet helps diagnose whether poor performance comes from traffic or the listing itself. We also dive into image generation and creative updates, and why testing visuals regularly is a non-negotiable part of weekly PPC optimization. If you want a clear, repeatable weekly routine for Amazon PPC—one that connects data, conversion, and creatives—this episode breaks it down step by step.
