lifestyle ninja today by the end of
today's episode you guys can know
exactly how to set up Amazon PPC
campaigns from scratch that will be
successful for years to come so that
being said Kevin what do you think I'll
get started let's do it guys so I'm
going to share my screen guys we are not
gonna do anything high-level today Greg
and I are really going to take you
literally inside of one of Greg's
accounts he's been kind enough to share
it and we're gonna do this as if it's
completely from scratch so we're not
going to use any of his search term
report data we are going to build these
campaigns as if there was literally no
data this is a brand new product right
and you can replicate these same methods
no matter what your product is so the
product that we're going to be looking
over today is called jungle sticks and
if you follow Greg you're probably
familiar with it I was familiar with it
when I was reading when I was you know
reading Greg's vlog so many months ago
and we are going to rebuilt these so the
first thing that I like to do is use a
website called merchant words and so if
you're going to be selling you know
marshmallow sticks they have many
different names and so it's important to
kind of recognize the fact that not
everyone calls the same product the same
thing and so we're gonna go in really
quickly and do marshmallow sticks in
here and we're gonna see we're gonna see
what we find right TBC 191,000 estimated
monthly search going for this and guys
for all of these Amazon keyword services
is important to note that these are
estimates right so you can't bet your
bottom dollar on the fact that there's
this many searches the only true source
of actual search volume monthly is using
the search engines right so you can go
to Google Keyword planner
another free service and they can give
you the real data from that so we are
going to do a couple of things the first
thing that I like to do is build out
what I call a master list for PPC so
we're gonna start downloading some CSPs
all right so we're gonna download a CSV
that contains all of these different
Amazon searches right because this is
really pivotal when it comes to keyword
research and you guys will see why we do
build one master list it helps with a
few other advanced strategies that we
are going to do down the line so one of
the ways that I like to kind of
brainstorm what other names people might
call the same product right because not
everyone calls this marshmallow 6 some
people call them you know hot dog stick
or can't fire sticks or bamboo sticks
right there's a bunch of different ways
that you can refer to the same thing and
so what I like to do is take kind of the
highest volume keyword here which is you
know marshmallow roasting sticks and so
I will copy and paste that and then just
there's some stuff that we can sell here
right because Amazon like Google is very
very good at organizing data right and
so when they're organizing data we see
that you know and if the reason I'm
ignoring these top-view is because
they're sponsored right so the number
one organic result we can have a lot of
confidence that Amazon feels is the most
relevant product or one of the most
relevant products for this highest
volume search right and what we see here
is that we see marshmallow roasting
sticks is prominently the first in their
title right after their brand but they
also have s'more kit they also have
perfect campfire accessories right they
also have bamboo skewers so then we can
come back into merchant words and we can
try typing some of these other ones
right like bamboo sticks and see what we
see and we do see right 144,000 so we're
going to download this one
and now all of a sudden we have two
completely different sets of keywords
that both are going to be hyper relevant
for the specific term and you know maybe
we're gonna type in some more kit and
you have anything you want to add to
this this is kind of how I like to start
my keyword research Gregg but I think
it's really good I'm just gonna add in
real quickly that if you guys are
overwhelmed by like PPC because it's the
first time you're getting started just
know that setting up PPC campaigns on
Amazon is very easy to do it's like the
most simple PPC can like PPC platform
out there okay all you do is you find
keywords that are relevant for your
product or you think you might get sales
through and you just bid on them okay
and we'll cover all this for detail by
just I just wanted to say that cuz like
that's why we're starting out with this
keyword research and that's kind of why
this is like step one for creating these
PPC campaigns right exactly and we are
going to go over exactly how to actually
set it up literally in the PPC portion
of Amazon so don't feel overwhelmed at
all Gregg and I are gonna walk you
through every single step of the way
right so we did bamboo sticks we did
marshmallow sticks we did smorc it's now
we're gonna do bamboo skewers we're
gonna try to find one more I like to
generally have about five different on
CSVs accidentally download that one
twice so these are the four right here
and then let's try to find one more
keyword that we might not have
represented right now right so maybe we
could do something with campfire
stainless steel s'mores a hot dog maybe
look maybe let's do hot dog sticks see
if there's anything for that hot dog
sticks cuz you know a lot of people are
using these to cook hot dogs so it's not
a ton here but you know we'll take it
anyways and we'll we'll use these five
alright so the next thing that I like to
do is kind of aggregate these all into
one master spreadsheet because once you
kind of build out one master spreadsheet
it's much easier to keep things
organized so we are going to use this
one as our master spreadsheet so that we
just downloaded that first CSV I'm going
to grab the second one here open it up
and I'm just going to take all of the
keywords from this second document and
I'm going to
paste them into this master and so we're
gonna do this you know three more times
until we have all of the different key
word charts represented and once we have
kind of that master list then we can
really start to use you know some some
tools and software and little tricks and
hacks that we picked up over the years
to kind of organize this data in a way
that sets our products ahead all right
so it's the fourth one and at this final
one guys it's important to note too that
you know when you are doing keyword
research in this way you're not only
doing it for PPC right there everything
are a lot of things with Amazon are kind
of interconnected so it's important to
remember that when you're doing this
keyword research for PPC you're also
doing keyword research for your back end
keywords you're also doing keyword
research for your tight your title for
your bullet points right so you kind of
you have to get to know and love your
product and know you know all the
different ways people are searching and
finding your products and once you kind
of understand exactly how people are
getting you know to your product to your
competitors that is when you can start
you know really ramping up your PPC so
this is the master keyword list from
merchants words before we kind of go
into how we're actually going to you
know manipulate this data I like to show
I like to show a couple more little
tricks that I like to use as far as you
know keyword research so this is our
merchant orgs list so we're gonna call
this MW we're gonna open up a new tab
here and let's go on to a little tool in
AMS so am s for those of you don't know
is Amazon marketing services it is kind
of Amazon PPC you know except a little
bit more souped-up oh actually before we
go to a mess I do want to show one more
thing I don't know how how you do this
Gregg and I'd actually be interested to
know but one of the cool like little
tricks that I've picked up over the
years is basically to use misspelling
generators right so if we if we type in
marshmallow sticks here and we can you
know go in a number of different
countries and we search it so what this
is is basically an
aggregation of thousands or millions of
different searches on eBay over the
years that have been misspelled so it
sorts these misspellings by the most
common so what we can do is grab you
know the first five or ten of these
right because you don't you know you
don't need to do all of them because if
you if you put like a thousand
misspellings amazon's not gonna give you
any impressions but if we take the top
ten most popular then we can you know
throw these into a misspellings chart
and once we have these then we can run
misspelling campaigns for these most
common misspellings and so you know you
can do this with all of your different
keywords whether it's marshmallow sticks
whether it's bamboo skewers right and
take the top ten misspellings for all of
your most highest highest volume
keywords and then you can run
misspelling campaigns where you're going
to get you know it's not going to change
your life or anything like that but you
will get a few very very low cost sales
every month and so really there's no
reason to do it when it takes like five
minutes to set up so now we're gonna
move on to am s so before you do that
I'm just gonna add something real quick
that technically like Amazon is supposed
to correct for these misspellings I
think they even say that they do so so I
think a lot of people don't set up these
misspelling campaigns but I actually had
have have had success with these before
some of them are more successful than
others but they're a good thing just to
try and then later on when we show you
how to optimize these you know if things
aren't performing well you can always
adjust bids or pause them right no
absolutely and you know just because
people out there saying you know Amazon
corrects with this they won't give you
any impressions like do it anyways right
what's the worst that can happen you
just don't get impressions and you don't
get sales right and so I've also tested
Spanish keywords for some of my really
highest highest volume keywords right
cuz there's there's a large Hispanic
population that uses Amazon in the
United States right so test things out
cuz the whole point of PPC and
optimizing and iterating these things
into success is by running a bunch of
experiments that's how you know I
figured it out in the beginning that
sure that's how Gregg figured out the
beginning so this is Amazon marketing
services there's three different types
of ads here we are going to focus on
sponsored products and headline search
for now so sponsored products basically
allows you to show
you're add in kind of a more prominent
way than a normal PPC allows so anyone
can sign up for a mess a mess you can do
like you can do it through vendor
Express right I teach exactly how to do
that I'm in my course I think I have a
video on YouTube as well I'm going over
how you can get AMS but it's not too
difficult and they have some really cool
tools that you can't really find
anywhere else as far as keyword research
so what I like to do here is um I search
marshmallow sticks for marshmallow
roasting sticks right cuz this this is
generally our highest volume there's 191
thousand monthly searches we're gonna
skip these two sponsored and go to the
organic position one product listing and
so when we open this what we're gonna do
is we're gonna grab the Aysen so the
a-sun usually begins with b01 but it can
look different right you can find it in
the URL usually after the /dt DP which
stands for a detailed page i'm so we're
gonna grab the Aysen head over sponsored
products and we're gonna paste it here
right and so when we paste it here
something cool happens so even though
this isn't our product amazon is
assuming that no one would advertise and
spend their own money to advertise other
people's products right so it actually
gives you keywords from Amazon right
this is Amazon data this is not an
estimate this is not you know how other
services like merchant words like are
making estimations and giving you
approximations and permutations at the
autofill feature of search this is true
Amazon data from the source right and so
when we scroll down you can put anything
for the campaign name and the budget
right because we're not actually
creating it right now all we're doing is
actually looking at the keywords so it
gives you suggested keywords when you
choose a manual targeting campaign and
this is amazing right because we did not
ever type into merchants or it's camp
fire roasting sticks
we never typed s'more skewers we never
talked bonfire
we never typed right blazing sticks or
any of these right so what we're gonna
do is we are going to grab all of these
keywords because you look at this is a
ton of stuff that we wouldn't have
otherwise had and so we're gonna grab
all of these
quickly and we're gonna open up our
master spreadsheet and we're gonna add a
new tab we're gonna call this AMS one
right because there is gonna be a second
way that we can use em as to get us on
some really valuable keywords and so
we're just gonna paste these in here
we're gonna try and see if it lets us
yeah okay so and we're going to we don't
really need these two columns and so now
we have a ton more stuff to work with
right and so the more keywords and the
more you know different permutations of
longtails
that you can potentially capture the
wider spread of potential you know
keywords you're going to actually be
showing four and winning ad options for
and getting sales for so if you have
anything you want to add to that Gregg
no that's really good I think this is a
good hack that most people don't know
about and I'll just repeat this real
quick because Kevin said a real pretty
quickly earlier you don't automatically
have access to AMS just because you're
using seller central but him in
ourselves we both created a video on how
to do and we'll include some of those
links in the description below yeah
absolutely
okay cool so then that is kind of how
you use what is called the sponsored
products right you can put and it
doesn't have to just just be one person
right I could go back and maybe I could
type in another one of ours right maybe
I could type in bamboo sticks because we
know that one is also highly has a high
volume and look here we see jungle
sticks that looks like an awesome
company and so you know we can take okay
so blazing sticks is actually first
organic here too but we could grab you
know another one of these that is very
close to it plug it back in in the exact
same way in the sponsor products and
start to build even more and more
keyword so we're not gonna show that
again you just showed it but let's move
on to the next way right so headlines
search is another way that people use
AMS very successfully to do keyword
research and what this is one of the
coolest like little hacks that I've
actually come across right so when
you're in headline search what you can
do actually is use Amazon's autofill PPC
box so what this is
is you know we can go and we can try to
surmise what we think the most relevant
and highest volume are right so we know
it's bamboo sticks we know it's
marshmallow and roasting sticks but what
about like campfire sticks or hotdog
sticks right those are a little bit
harder to know exactly what people are
searching and so what this does is
actually takes out kind of an ambiguity
and the guest and tells you right so if
we search bamboo all of a sudden we see
it straight from Amazon not only you
know all of these different words but
they also give us the amount of traffic
associated with these words right so
bamboo s is sheets right we could do k
for skewers and then all of a sudden we
have these long tail keywords that are
the you know the number of inches and
just because somebody is searching for a
bamboo forest excuse me a bamboo skewer
that is six inches if you see if they
see a beautiful listing and yours
happens to be 8 inches they aren't going
to you know necessarily just ignore
yours cuz it's 2 inches longer right and
so it's very important to have as much
representation for all of these longtail
keywords as we can get right so we're
gonna type in bamboo we're gonna type in
bamboo sticks and see what we see here
so we see decorative we see fake right
bamboo sticks for plants for vase these
are things that I would never have you
know thought of you know what I'm when I
in my brain the bamboo sticks are for
you know marshmallows there for you know
hot dogs
cooking at camping and things like that
so and then we can do camping sticks for
s'mores for hot dogs cooking right so
and then here's a misspelling that they
have so we had all those and you know we
could do what are some other ones we
should try Greg some of the hot dog
terms or sticks extra long for fire pit
for can't fire a dull right these are
great heat works guys because the more
words you have I've found in my in my
experience if you have a you know a long
tail phrase that's three words four
words five words or even more than five
words those are where you get the
incredibly cheap PPC sales right because
no one is competing on the word hot dog
sticks for campfire a dull right that's
a six that's a six string
keyword phrase there's I can guarantee
you that that is going to be a lower bid
than bamboo skewers right so we're gonna
add all of these ones and then we could
do s'mores s'mores
yeah s'mores kit maker sticks for fire
pit
let's do s'mores st yeah so wooden for
kids bulk and then we could do s'mores
again but with the apostrophe we could
do s'mores as K for skewers and I mean
you know we could do this all day and
the more and more words that you collect
the more and more profitable that your
PPC campaigns are going to be so we can
you know we just took a bunch of those
keywords and so we're going to add these
in to our Wow
we're gonna add these into our
spreadsheet as AMS too and so once we
kind of have all of these keywords then
we can start to think about okay
how do we want to populate our back-end
and what I mean by our back-end keywords
is literally the keywords that you put
into a product listing in the backend
that Amazon is using to index and what I
mean by index is show your actual
product when people search you know
specific keyword phrases as we saw we
saw Gregg's products show up right and
that's because he's indexing for those
keywords and Amazon has deemed his
product relevant for those phrases that
his product does show organically for
right and so excuse me and so one of the
ways that we do this and you know
actually just learn this from Gregg so I
was doing it a different way but
actually um do appreciate the way that
he does it a little bit better is we
want to figure out what the most
relevant single words are right because
in your back and keywords you don't have
to repeat words Amazon makes it very
clear that you only have to put them
once and Amazon's a nine algorithm will
actually do the heavy lifting for you
and kind of formulate the permutations
and the different longtail phrases from
your single word list and so what we're
gonna do is this master list that we
made of merchant word keywords right
this is the longest one there's like you
know fifteen hundred
different keywords here we're gonna copy
all of these and we're gonna come to a
website called word counter and Greg do
you want to kind of explain why why
exactly we're using word kana yeah so
this is a good kind of indicator of like
which words are essentially which
keywords are the most important for you
right so the ones after hereit's go we
see at the top is like stick than bamboo
then marshmallow then roast these are
like the most and probably most
important words to have even in your
title or even towards the beginning of
your title and then everything here
that's mentioned like you know more than
one time which is all of them these
should all be key words somewhere in
your listing or your back-end search
terms otherwise you're not going to be
you're likely not going to be indexed
for these particular words absolutely
and you know with the 250 character
update that Amazon did roll out right so
if you guys haven't heard of that before
you could have you know a ton more back
in keywords but people were kind of
manipulating and keyword stuffing and
just like putting a bunch of random
stuff that wasn't particularly relevant
to their specific product and so what
Amazon did was they limited on your
back-end characters that you are allowed
to actually be indexed for to two
hundred and fifty characters right and
so what this method does is it really
shows you you know if there's 1500
different words all with a bunch of
volume that you're getting from
merchants words from AMS from Google
Keyword planner from keyword I'll write
from all these different keyword
services it's very difficult to tell
which of these are most targeted and
most relevant then will give you the
highest chance of being indexed for
phrases that include these words right
and so what we're gonna do then is we
would just take 250 characters of out of
you know these top most searched words
right because it tells us the frequency
right here and we're going to plug those
into our back-end and feel very
comfortable doing so and that Amazon is
going to actually deem our listings
relevant and so what you want to do kind
of once we're here right we have all of
these different keywords right we have
misspellings we have AMS one from the
sponsored we have AMS two from the
headline all from actual Amazon data is
we're going to actually build out some
of these campaigns and so one
thing that I want to know just while
we're here right is that um as Greg
mentioned right we want to have
representation for all of these hyper
relevant keywords in our listing and it
needs to be in one of a few places right
it needs to be in your title or it needs
to be in your keywords or it needs to be
in your back-end right so your most
relevant most you know giving you the
highest click-through rate and sales
rate and things like that you want those
to be in your title your title holds the
most weight as far as what Amazon is
indexing you for and so once you kind of
have some data to look at from your
search term report after you get some
sales from PPC then you can actually
really iterate your title and we will go
over that when Greg leads the discussion
about optimizing PPC campaigns once we
are back on to my channel so if you guys
are interested make sure that you do
catch part two because it's going to be
Greg leading it and it's going to be
very good right so one of the things
we're gonna do is actually get started
so okay so we are in the campaign
manager so in the advertising menu we're
going to go to campaign manager and then
we're gonna go to create campaign and so
when we create campaign we can kind of
do two different things here and you
want to be specific right so we are
going to set up a manual we're gonna set
up a jungle Stix right so depending on
how many products you have you want to
be specific here because you'll just
thank yourself when you have a ton of
different products and you're looking at
all of these different things in your
search and report and you just like to
stay organized so jungle Stix manual
we're gonna do phrase match and we're
gonna set the daily budget to you know
maybe a hundred and nine dollars a day I
like to use a little bit random of
numbers right and it depends what you're
actually doing so I go over this in
detail in my channel and my course it's
a little bit more complicated but if you
have proven keywords right or you're
using a low bid keyword you know some of
the more advanced tactics I'll even set
my budget to crazy stuff like I'll set
it to like literally like four thousand
dollars a day just because Amazon won't
actually spend that much but they will
give you more impressions but you have
to be very careful it's more of an
advanced tactic and you know if you are
new to this definitely you know you can
start out even with like twenty or fifty
dollars a day right so we're gonna put a
hundred
109 dollars a day we're gonna start it
now and end date never right and so the
first thing that I want to talk about
really quick right here is the
difference between automatic and manual
targeting so automatic targeting goes
back to what we Craig and I were just
discussing right why it's so important
to have representation of these you know
super relevant keywords somewhere in
your listing because what automatic
targeting does is it kind of combs
through your listing and scrapes all the
key words out of your title out of your
back end out of your bullet points and
then it creates PPC campaigns for you
right so Amazon kind of does all the
work for you
in my experience automatic is generally
less profitable than manual just because
you can really get more creative with
manual you can test things yourself you
can play around bid prices and stuff
like that what have you what have you
found right between automatic and manual
which is better yeah so automatics good
first starting out for a product if
you've never had it before because it
gives you a good insight of what Amazon
thinks about your product some real
customer search terms even without
having to input keywords or anything
like that after some time generally most
people will stop their automatic
campaigns or put like a lower daily
budget because you can't optimize for
certain search terms inside of their
Amazon just chooses which search terms
they think are relevant for your product
and they just use your overall bid for
all those words even though like some of
these words might not be converting well
right yeah and so you know we're not
gonna actually go over automatic
targeting just because you know
literally all you do is click this and
press continue to next step choose your
product and that's it right there's no
there's no creativity there's no you
know research really involved aside from
building your list incorrectly right but
one trick that I do want to just quickly
mention for automatic targeting that I
have found to work is actually spreading
out your automatic campaigns and what I
mean by that is you know instead of
making one automatic campaign with a
hundred dollars per day I will instead
make ten automatic campaigns with ten
dollars a day and let me explain why
right because how Amazon determines
whether or not they're going to give you
more impressions is based on the initial
impression so if you show your ad to a
hundred people and zero
people by Amazon says okay this isn't
relevant and they completely cut you off
give you no more impressions right and
you aren't going to be able to actually
get sales from your automatic campaigns
but sometimes your automatic campaigns
will choose different random keywords to
show these people first and so out of
that same hundred people maybe they
choose a different keyword and ten
people buy and then all of a sudden
Amazon seeing write a ten percent
conversion rate and they're gonna say
okay this is relevant we're gonna show
this to a bunch more people and so
you'll see maybe like two or three out
of the ten campaigns being very
successful as far as profitability
you'll see two or three of them maybe
are not profitable right there they're
spending too much with that without
enough sales and you'll see maybe four
or five that have just no impressions
right because they were deemed not
relevant so what you do there is you
scale the ones that are profitable right
to kind of piggyback off that initial
momentum you you know downgrade or lower
the bids of the non profitable automatic
campaigns and then you can just pause
the ones that aren't working so um
that's just a little trick that I've
kind of picked up
I'll just added something real quick
people always wonder a question about um
can you i like compete against yourself
and the answer is no so like if you have
the exact same keyword you know in ten
different spots you're not driving up
the bid and all those different
campaigns right and Amazon actually goes
over this specifically they have a
little section in AMS where they they
show you exactly how they they prevent
duplicate bids it's basically just if
you have the exact same bid price
they'll choose one at random and so you
can go over to AMS and read on it if you
want but like like greg said he's
exactly right you are not going to bid
against yourself so we're going to name
this ad group manual merchant where it's
one manual phrase merchant where is one
and we select bamboo marshmallow s'mores
roasting sticks and the default bid here
you can kind of put whatever you want
cuz I have a little trick that I'm gonna
show you guys how I like to you know
actually show the ad to as many people
as possible but spend the least amount
of money doing it so we're gonna we're
gonna go over exactly how to do that so
excuse me so the next thing that we're
gonna do is we're gonna come back into
