Not every product in your catalog deserves equal PPC investment during Spring Deal Days. Focus on:

👉 Products with the highest profit margins

👉 Items with strong conversion rates (10%+ typically)

👉 ASINs with at least 15-20 positive reviews

👉 Products you're running deals on during the event

These are your priority products for increased ad spend.

Don't just increase bids on your existing campaigns. Create in your ad account dedicated Spring Deal Days campaigns with:

👉 Separate budgets so event spending doesn't drain your everyday campaigns

👉 Higher bids on top-performing keywords to win premium placements

👉 Tighter targeting focused on high-intent, converting search terms

👉 Clear naming conventions like "Spring Deals 2026 - [Product Name]" for easy tracking

This separation gives you clean performance data and prevents your regular campaigns from being disrupted.

During Spring Deal Days, you should expect to spend 2-3x your normal daily PPC budget. However, this increase must be strategic:

Don't do this:

❌ Double your budget across all campaigns equally

❌ Set it and forget it for the entire event

Do this:

✅ Allocate 60-70% of your increased budget to proven high-performers

✅ Reserve 20-30% for testing new placements or keywords

✅ Keep 10% as a buffer for real-time adjustments

During the event, check your campaign spend every 2-3 hours. Look for:

👉 Campaigns burning through budget too quickly (adjust bids down)

👉 Campaigns with budget left but low impressions (increase bids)

👉 High spend but low conversions (pause or reduce budget)

Real-time adjustments prevent wasted spend and capitalize on performance spikes.

The key to maximizing ROI during Spring Deal Days is ruthlessly redirecting budget from underperformers to proven winners.

During deal events, top-of-search placements deliver the highest visibility and conversion rates. Adjust your placement bidding:

👉 Increase top-of-search bid adjustment to 50-100%+

👉 Reduce product page placements to 10-20% (lower intent during deals)

👉 Test rest-of-search at 20-30%

Most of your budget should go toward capturing shoppers actively searching for products like yours.

Broad match keywords waste budget during high-traffic events. Shift spend toward:

👉 Exact match: Highest intent, best conversion rates

👉 Phrase match: Balance of reach and relevance

👉 Broad match: Only if you have extensive negative keyword lists

Tighter targeting ensures every click has a higher probability of converting.

Product targeting is a goldmine during Spring Deal Days. Identify competitors whose:

👉 Deals are less attractive than yours (smaller discounts, higher prices)

👉 Ratings are lower than yours

👉 Inventory levels are low (they may run out mid-event)

Place your ads on their product pages to capture shoppers comparing deals.

Different campaign types serve different purposes during deal events. Here's how to use each:

Best practices:

✅ Create separate campaigns for each deal product

✅ Bid aggressively on high-intent keywords

✅ Use automatic campaigns to discover new converting terms

✅ Adjust bids by placement to prioritize top-of-search

Sponsored Brands help you stand out with custom headlines and multiple products.

Best practices:

✅ Feature 3 complementary products in the ad

✅ Link to a custom Store page or dedicated landing page

✅ Target branded and category keywords

Allocate 15-20% of your budget here.

Best practices:

✅ Retarget views of your product detail pages

✅ Target audiences who viewed competitor products

✅ Show ads on and off Amazon to maximize reach

Allocate 10-15% of your budget here.
