Peakhawks: Amazon Advertising agency

Unlocking Amazon Brand Analytics for Profitable Growth.

Most Amazon sellers rely on basic metrics like ACOS to guide their advertising decisions. While these are important, they only tell part of the story. Amazon Brand Analytics (ABA) offers far deeper insights, giving you access to the exact search, shopper, and competitor data you need to make smarter PPC, SEO, and product strategy decisions.

Brands that use ABA effectively often see lower wasted ad spend, stronger keyword targeting, and higher return on ad spend (ROAS). According to Amazon Seller Central data, sellers who integrate Brand Analytics into their decision-making can reduce non-converting ad spend by up to 20%.

What is Amazon Brand Analytics?

Brand Analytics is a data tool available to brand-registered sellers inside Seller Central. It offers detailed insights on customer behavior, search trends, and competitor performance that you can use to:

  • Refine your keyword targeting

  • Identify high-converting opportunities

  • Build more profitable product bundles

  • Improve retention and repeat purchases

Why Not Use ABA Hurts Your Advertising

Without Brand Analytics, your campaigns are built on assumptions rather than facts. This can lead to:

  • Bidding on the wrong keywords

  • Overlooking profitable search trends

  • Missing opportunities for cross-sells and upsells

  • Losing market share to competitors with better data

In competitive categories, relying on guesswork often results in higher CPCs, lower CTRs, and reduced profitability.

The Five Most Valuable Reports Inside Brand Analytics

  1. Search Terms Report – Shows the top keywords, their click share, and conversion share so you know exactly where shoppers are engaging.

  2. Market Basket Analysis – Reveals what customers frequently purchase alongside your products, giving you bundling opportunities.

  3. Repeat Purchase Behavior – Shows which products bring customers back, enabling you to focus on high-retention items.

  4. Demographics Report – Breaks down buyer profiles by age, income, and location for more precise targeting.

  5. Item Comparison & Alternate Purchase Behavior – Identifies competitor ASINs that shoppers considered or chose over yours.

Applying ABA Insights to PPC Strategy

Here’s how top-performing sellers integrate ABA into their ad strategy:

  • Extract high-performing keywords from the Search Terms Report and add them to Sponsored Products and Sponsored Brands campaigns.

  • Use Market Basket Analysis to create strategic bundles and promote them with Sponsored Display ads.

  • Target competitor ASINs identified in the Item Comparison report to capture their audience.

  • Build campaigns that align with your audience profile from the Demographics Report.

Real-World Example

A Home & Kitchen brand was running multiple PPC campaigns with an ACOS of 28%. Using ABA, they identified keywords with high conversion share but low competition and adjusted bids accordingly. They also used Market Basket Analysis to bundle products that customers frequently bought together.

Result:

  • Reduced wasted spend by 22%

  • Increased ROAS by 18% within 45 days

  • Improved TACOS from 10% to 7.5%
