Highway to Sell: Amazon PPC Insights

In this episode we set up AI on Amazon Ads in under five minutes, no code. Then we run through the five prompts that are actually working right now, including the one a seller used to uncover $4,300 in wasted spend.It's a three-step connect: sign up, add the custom connector, click connect. After that you can find wasted keywords, bulk-optimise campaigns, pull live reporting, expand into new marketplaces, and spot competitor ASINs you're showing up for but not targeting.WORK WITH CLEAR ADSWant our team to manage and scale your Amazon advertising?https://clearadsagency.com

Advertising can amplify a strong Amazon product, but it can’t fix poor positioning, weak creative or a listing that doesn’t convert.In this episode, we look at why sellers often blame PPC when a launch struggles, how Amazon is using AI and shopper data to decide which products to surface, and why simply spending more on ads is becoming less effective.We also discuss Amazon’s shift towards profitability, what that means for sellers in 2026, and why product, pricing, creative and conversion need to work before advertising can really scale.If you sell on Amazon, this is a useful look at where ads actually fit into the bigger picture of growth.Free PPC audit: https://clearadsagency.com/request-a-call-back/Join the Clear Ads community: https://www.skool.com/clear-ads-community/about

Your bid doesn't decide what you pay per click on Amazon. Your click-through rate does. And in most accounts, the CPC gap between brands bidding the same amount on the same keyword runs at 25 to 40%. That's the relevance signal nobody talks about, and it's been quietly inflating CPCs for the brands ignoring it.In this episode, I break down how the Amazon ad auction actually clears and why your bid is only a ceiling, not your cost. The Ad Rank formula is Bid times CTR, which means a $2 bid with strong CTR can beat a $3 bid with weak CTR and pay less for the click. If your CTR is lagging, you're paying more than your competitors at the same bid level. Lower your bids to compensate and you lose impression share. That's the bidding treadmill most sellers get stuck on without realizing it.I cover the three highest-impact levers that move CTR fastest: main image, price positioning, and social proof. I also get into the hidden 4.25-star rounding cliff that decides whether your listing shows 4 stars or 4.5 stars on the search results page, which has a direct impact on whether shoppers click. And I walk through how to test each lever on your own account using Manage Your Experiments, price tests, and review velocity.There could be $60K hiding in your CPCs right now.

TikTok Shop is growing fast, but so is the money sellers are losing without ever knowing it. In this episode, George sits back down with Agassi Korkis, co-founder of CapTrack, to break down exactly how TikTok sellers are losing thousands in unrecovered revenue and how to get it back before the 60-day window closes forever.We cover what CapTrack does and how it works, why TikTok sellers lose 2-3x more revenue than Amazon sellers, and the 60-day deadline you cannot afford to miss. Once that window closes, the money is gone. Permanently. One brand lost $212,000 in three months and never recovered a penny because they didn't know the clock was ticking.We also get into how the free audit process works with no upfront cost, why FBT (Fulfilled by TikTok) is the key requirement to claim reimbursements, and CapTrack's 92% success rate on cases TikTok says can't be won.Beyond reimbursements, Agassi gives his honest take on whether brands should add TikTok Shop to their business, how to test with your hero products first, and the TikTok to Amazon halo effect where one brand hit six figures from month one. We also talk about TikTok Live as the QVC of our generation, how micro-influencers with 20k followers are making a full-time living, and why TikTok's algorithm rewards content over follower count.If you're selling on TikTok Shop or thinking about it, this episode could save you thousands.#TikTokShop #CapTrack #TikTokSeller #EcommerceReimbursements #AmazonFBA #TikTokCommerce #TikTokLive #EcommerceTips #TikTokBusiness #FulfilledByTikTok #MicroInfluencers #EcommerceStrategy #TikTokSales #ClearAds #BusinessPodcast
