Giveaways Are NOT Dead: Sales History, The Honeymoon Period, and More

Giveaways are somewhat of a controversial topic in the Amazon seller community; every few months, sellers wonder if they even work anymore.  At VL, we run hundreds of giveaways per day, and the data says that they are absolutely still effective.  You just have to approach them differently in 2019.  Casey discusses creating foundational sales, conducting keyword research, and understanding your market before launching a giveaway – this will help skyrocket your product to success even after the launch is complete.

Why Ad Position Makes or Breaks Your PPC Campaign

For veteran PPC enthusiasts, it is well known that Google and Bing offer reporting on where your ad is delivering.  On the other hand, Amazon Advertising does not give sellers insight into their sponsored ad placement.  This metric, however, is an extremely important indicator of PPC campaign success and should be more heavily emphasized in paid strategies.

This week, Casey Gauss is joined by Brock Brothers, Viral Launch R&D Specialist.  They discuss ad position in Amazon, especially as it pertains to two different PPC strategies: profit and launch.
