The challenge

Advertising and the Vendor business stay separated

When campaigns are judged only by attributed sales or ACoS, important relationships are missed. Availability, retail sales, portfolio effects and Vendor-specific attribution can support different decisions.

Our approach

Connect Vendor data with financial decisions

We connect available Vendor Central and Amazon Ads data to support budget control and PPC optimization. Campaigns are assessed in the context of margins and portfolio roles. DSP and AMC signals complement this view where data access and the agreed scope allow.
