Amazon DSP Series Episode #4 - In episode four of our Amazon DSP Series, Justin Nuckols and Adam Mellott are putting more focus on key performance indicators (KPIs) and measurement strategies for DSP specifically. They stress the importance of understanding what you want to achieve with DSP, whether it's building brand awareness or remarketing to existing customers. It's clear that while Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) is crucial, it's not the only metric that matters.
Setting realistic expectations is vital with DSP because it is all about incremental gains. During the episode Adam notes, "DSP is a long game and initial or immediate results cannot and should not be expected out of the gate." Justin and Adam also discuss how to optimize strategies for different stages of the marketing funnel, from awareness to consideration to purchase intent - highlighting metrics like conversion rate, click-through rate (CTR), and average order value (AOV) as essential for understanding the effectiveness of your campaigns.
The duo also explains how Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) provides valuable insights into how DSP integrates with your other advertising efforts. By using tools like the path to purchase and media mix modules, you are able to see how different ad types work together to drive conversions. Justin emphasizes, "You should be advertising at every stage of the funnel, everywhere a customer can see you. It leads to the strongest conversion rate."
