When should you pause keywords on Amazon PPC? Most sellers pause too early and destroy their organic rank without realizing it.

In this episode, I break down the 5 rules you need to check before pausing any keyword in your Amazon ads campaign. The click threshold (it's not 10 clicks), why you need to compare conversion rates before you kill, how to identify the actual job of each keyword, why you should split winners before killing losers, and why placement data matters more than the keyword itself.

If you're getting clicks without sales on Amazon PPC, this episode shows you exactly how to decide what to do next. I also cover when lowering the bid is better than pausing, how negative keywords save campaigns instead of pausing them, and the real cost of pulling the trigger too early.

Pausing feels like optimization. Most of the time, it's just cutting off momentum before it has a chance to work.

Are you wasting 20-40% of your Amazon ad budget on searches that will never convert? Negative keywords in Amazon PPC fix that problem, but only if you use them correctly.

In this episode, I walk through everything you need to know about negative keywords on Amazon. How to find them in your Search Term Report, the difference between negative exact and negative phrase match, how to build a master negative keywords list (150+ terms across 6 categories), and the mistakes that cause over-negating and kill campaigns.

I also break down N-gram analysis to spot wasting patterns, how to add negative keywords and ASINs in your campaigns step by step, and the positive-to-negative ratio that separates profitable campaigns from wasteful ones.

Whether you're running Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, or Sponsored Display, negative targeting is the fastest way to lower ACoS and improve ROAS without spending more. This is the complete guide, from finding waste in your search term report to building a system that prevents it before it happens.

TikTok is quietly blocking seller-fulfilled orders while Amazon rolls out a 15% discount specifically for TikTok sellers. Coincidence? Not even close.

In this episode, I break down the new TikTok-Amazon fulfillment pipeline that nobody's talking about. What's actually happening behind the scenes, Amazon's new MCF Preferred Pricing ($1 credit per unit, up to $50K annually), the real math on whether it saves you money, and how to set the whole thing up step by step.

I also get into the bigger strategic picture: TikTok and Amazon aren't competing anymore. They're building a shared commerce pipeline. TikTok drives discovery, Amazon handles fulfillment, and sellers either profit from both or get squeezed in the middle.

Whether you're doing 500 or 5,000 TikTok orders a month, this episode helps you figure out if the switch makes sense for your margins and exactly how to play it if it does.

Amazon Creative Studio is a free AI-powered tool built directly into your Amazon Ads console that transforms basic product photos into professional lifestyle images, videos, and animations—without hiring an agency or learning design software.

In this complete tutorial, you'll learn how to access Creative Studio, use its three core features (Image Generator, Video Generator, and Creative Agent chat), and master the prompting techniques that separate mediocre outputs from professional results. The tool is currently available across 10 markets including the US, UK, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Australia, Brazil, and Mexico.

Testing shows AI-generated creative can drive up to 40% higher click-through rates compared to basic product photos. You can generate finished assets in 5-10 minutes—work that typically takes agencies days or costs $3,000-$10,000 per project.

We cover what's working (speed, cost, integration), what's not (brand consistency, occasional policy rejections), and exactly who should use this tool versus those who should skip it. Whether you're running ads with boring white-background images or testing video for the first time, this tool eliminates the biggest barrier: professional creative quality.
Key Takeaways

• Three core features work best: Start with Image Generation, progress to Video, then experiment with Creative Agent chat for full campaign concepts

• Prompting matters significantly: Include context (who it's for), specifics (concrete details), and mood (emotional tone) for output quality that rivals professional designers

• Best use case: Testing new products and campaigns with AI, then investing in professional production only for proven winners

Just wrapped an incredible podcast episode with Jasim, the visionary behind a $100M/year Amazon brand—starting from selling college textbooks at 15 to now acquiring, scaling, and partnering with top e-commerce brands.

Here are 5 game-changing takeaways from our conversation:

From Arbitrage to Acquisition
Jasim started by flipping textbooks, then scaled to wholesale, and now buys and partners with brands—offering inventory financing, full-channel management, and explosive growth on Amazon, Walmart, and Target.

Pitfalls of Hyper-Growth
Expanding too fast cost him early on—warehouse leases, hiring missteps, and siloed teams. Now, standardization, communication, and KPIs are non-negotiable.

The Power of Partnerships
Unlike typical agencies, Jasim’s team buys inventory upfront and manages end-to-end for brands. Their sweet spot? $1M–$20M brands hungry for scalable growth.

AI as a Force Multiplier
From translating global team comms to generating ad creatives and split-testing ideas, AI has supercharged their efficiency. (P.S. Google’s real-time translation tool is a game-changer!)

The Future of Amazon Sellers
With Amazon increasingly going direct-to-manufacturer, Jasim’s focus is on adding unmatched value—through supply chain mastery, data-driven creative, and inventory dominance.

Final Wisdom:
“Double down on what works. Cut the 80% of SKUs that don’t move the needle. And build teams that run toward challenges, not away from them.”
