Amazon has made their sponsored ads relatively easy to use. On top of this, they offer a ton of tutorials on their Amazon University. If you’re not well versed in managing online ads, it’s pretty easy to get a handle on. 

**What do you dislike about Amazon Sponsored Ads?**

Like any other online ad platform, it can tend to get a little cluttered if you’re not strictly organized from the beginning. Make sure you have a roadmap set out for how you want your campaigns, ad sets, and ads laid out or you’ll be in the weeds.

Go through Amazon’s university videos to get a sense of how the platform works before you jump right in. It can be a bit overwhelming at first, but those videos make the process much easier.

We launched a premium dog collar that was being sold on Amazon so we utilized sponsored ads so we could gain control over keywords that are important to our business. This was for both category keywords, brand words, as well as competitors at times.

It seems like the data captures other sales number or impression, clicks, etc. It is not accurate to extract the organic traffic and sales of the certain ASINs included in the campaign.

**Reviewed by:** Brittany P. | Social Media and Marketing Coordinator, Marketing and Advertising, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 17, 2018

**What do you like best about Amazon Sponsored Ads?**

I like how you can create several different campaigns and see how each campaign is doing. The campaign section shows you how many people have clicked on your campaign, how long you're running your campaign for, how much you've spent/sales, your own budget, etc. It's nice to have a platform that makes it easy to run campaigns while also keeping track of important data so that you can compare your past campaigns to your future ones.

**What do you dislike about Amazon Sponsored Ads?**

I dislike the creative end to it on the stores side. I mainly use Amazon AMS to create and build brand store pages. The creative tools in the brand store page is not as ideal as I hoped to boost my creativity. There are set tiles that you can add different types of content too but the only issue is that the tiles are set in stone so if you want to change to a different tile you'd have to create a new one.

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Program Development | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2018

**What do you like best about Amazon Sponsored Ads?**

I like how simple the entire system works together. It allows you to put your most valued item on top of people's search list so they are more likely to buy it. This has helped sell more product and become a little bit more powerful in the selling world.

**What do you dislike about Amazon Sponsored Ads?**

Honestly, it seems that it is a waste of money and time. More than likely people will walk or "click" away from the sponsored items as they seem them as being more spammy. I feel that it might have driven some sales, but for the most part it did not give us a positive ROI, which was the main goal. 

**Recommendations to others considering Amazon Sponsored Ads:**

If i had to choose again, I would skip the Amazon Sponsored Ads all together.  Although the interface was easy to use and everything was very simple, it did not drive the kind of traffic that we were expecting. Next time we will skip sponsored ads and spend our marketing dollars elsewhere in order to find more customers.

**What problems is Amazon Sponsored Ads solving and how is that benefiting you?**

With sponsored ads, it allows us to get our information and product in front of others with minimal amount of effort. This allows us to have the opportunity to have more product and add value to our company.

Spreading awareness to the handbag brand.

AMS allows companied to pull real time analytics and find out consumer behavior data. 

**What do you dislike about Amazon Sponsored Ads?**

We are refining product development by looking at  how our consumers are searching for our products and what attributes makes them purchase it. As well as, building brand awareness and collecting SEO keywords for our website and social media 

  ### 50. Why not use Amazon Web Services?

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jesus  C. | Programador, Internet, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 04, 2018

**What do you like best about Amazon Sponsored Ads?**

Amazon Web Services offers a lot of tools that assist both individual and startup companies. For a company, it is very helpful because our development team finds each AWS tool beneficial, such as registering a domain, building a web app, and connecting an IoT device. The time reduction in the development of a single application is significant, and registering a domain is very fast.

**What do you dislike about Amazon Sponsored Ads?**

A little tip that Amazon Web Services needs to resolve very quickly is that when you are going to create an account, the step of phone validation is so hard to type the validation code that AWS assigns us.

**Recommendations to others considering Amazon Sponsored Ads:**

Add more tutorials to your page; you are really good at that. Perhaps if you offer a course on every single part or the connections we need to make to connect our service, it could be a big help.

**What problems is Amazon Sponsored Ads solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Simple time reduction in the development of an application, fast registration of my domain, and the cost of the server is cheaper, which is so good for a small company.
