Promoting your business with Amazon Sponsored Display Ads

Executive overview

Most small businesses assume Amazon Ads require selling on Amazon. They don't. Amazon has opened Sponsored Display Ads to off-Amazon businesses, including hospitality, restaurants, and salons.

Targeting draws on Amazon's shopping, streaming, and browsing signals. Setup takes minutes. Amazon is currently offering $500 free ad credit to eligible businesses.

Paid ads — not social media — are the primary traffic driver for most businesses.

Campaign setup

  • Create a new campaign and set a daily budget
  • No minimum spend; adjust budget at any time
  • Choose optimisation goal: reach, page views, or clicks
  • Select target locations for ad delivery

Audience targeting options

  1. Amazon Audiences — pre-built segments by lifestyle, interests, life events, in-market intent
  2. Views — audiences who viewed or clicked relevant product pages
  3. Purchases — audiences who bought within relevant product categories

Why it works

  • Billions of Amazon signals cover shopping, streaming, and browsing
  • Precise audience tracking across the internet at favourable cost
  • Drives traffic directly to your own booking or conversion page
