Amazon's new ROAS-based auto bidding for Sponsored Products sounds like a dream, right? Just set it and forget it. But here’s the catch:
You’re giving Amazon control over:
* Bid aggression
* Traffic quality
* Spend distribution
If your product listings, images, pricing, and reviews are on point, this can boost efficiency and help you get the most out of your budget.
But if your funnel’s a mess, you’re basically letting Amazon find more expensive ways to burn through your budget without delivering results.
In short; auto bidding doesn’t create profit it just reallocates your spend. Your strategy still determines the success.
So, before you relax, make sure your funnel is clean. A great ad spend strategy starts with a great product.
