Smarter ads, better sales with Amazon DSP
Buy and manage display, video, and audio ads both on and off Amazon. We optimize Amazon DSP campaigns to deliver smarter ads, increase listing visibility, and boost your sales using Amazon’s powerful audience data and insights.
Let’s build an Amazon DSP strategy that works for you.
What is Amazon DSP?
Amazon DSP (Demand Side Platform) lets sellers and vendors reach potential customers outside of Amazon and bring them to your product listings. If you struggle to attract shoppers with normal Amazon PPC ads, Amazon DSP is for you.
Amazon DSP offers various ad formats to engage audiences on and off Amazon:
Video ads
Shown on Streaming TV (OTT or Over The Top) and third-party sites (OLV or online video), boosting brand awareness. OLV ads are clickable, while OTT ads are not.
Dynamic eCommerce ads (RECs)
Auto-generated ads featuring up to 20 in-stock products, optimizing performance with machine learning.
Audio ads
Non-skippable ads on Amazon Music, Alexa devices, and Fire TV, enhancing brand awareness.
Static ads (image and mobile banners)
Clickable image ads with CTAs like “Shop Now,” appearing on websites and mobile apps.

Advanced targeting
Amazon’s self-serve ad types—Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, and Sponsored Display—offer some level of targeting, but they lack the granular controls that drive true performance optimization. That’s where Amazon DSP (Demand-Side Platform) comes in. With advanced targeting capabilities, sellers can refine their advertising strategy and reach high-intent shoppers with greater precision.
Our DSP specialists leverage a suite of advanced targeting features that go beyond basic keyword and product targeting, allowing sellers to:
Reach shoppers in specific cities, states, or even ZIP codes
Adjust campaigns based on age, income, or other demographic factors
Ensure ads run when target audiences are most active
Retarget high-value shoppers based on their browsing and purchase behavior
Serve different creatives for mobile and desktop users
Compare multiple ad variations to optimize performance
Limit impressions per unique visitor to avoid ad fatigue
Ensure ads appear above or below the fold based on engagement goals
Exclude or include specific websites for better ad placement
Reach shoppers who are actively looking for similar products
Dynamic targeting
With dynamic targeting, we ensure your ads adapt in real time to market changes, trends, and unexpected shifts. Whether it’s an influencer shoutout, a stockout issue, or changing algorithms, our Amazon agency fine-tunes your campaigns to keep them effective.
How we optimize with dynamic targeting:
We shift ad placements and budgets based on performance trends
We test and adjust ad formats, messaging, and call-to-action elements to maximize conversions
We adapt targeting to ensure your ads reach the right shoppers at the right time
Custom audiences
At My Amazon Guy, we leverage Amazon DSP’s powerful audience-building capabilities to deliver highly customized advertising strategies. By tapping into Amazon’s vast first- and third-party data, we help sellers and brands reach their ideal customers at every stage of the funnel.
Here’s how we build high-impact custom audiences:
Engage shoppers based on their buying habits and interests, ensuring your ads reach those most likely to convert
Attract high-intent shoppers who have recently searched for or purchased similar products
Capture real-time demand by placing ads on relevant content or targeting competitor shoppers
Re-engage visitors who viewed your product but didn’t purchase or encourage repeat purchases from past buyers
Maintaining repeat customers
We help brands retain customers and drive repeat purchases through Amazon DSP’s powerful retargeting tools. Keeping existing customers engaged is more cost-effective than acquiring new ones, and we optimize campaigns to encourage loyalty and repeat sales.
We re-engage past buyers by showing them relevant ads based on their purchase history
We track site visitors and remind them of your products on and off Amazon
We promote complementary products to past customers for higher lifetime value
We time ads strategically to prompt reorders when customers are likely to buy again
Maximize ad reach with Amazon DSP
Amazon Demand-Side Platform (DSP) is the ultimate tool for brands looking to scale beyond PPC. With DSP, you can target high-intent shoppers, retarget lost customers, and expand your brand’s visibility—both on and off Amazon.
Amazon DSP works best for brands already seeing success with PPC. If you’re generating strong PPC sales, DSP can take your advertising to the next level—driving long-term growth and increasing brand dominance.

Amazon PPC vs. Amazon DSP
Amazon PPC and DSP are both powerful advertising tools, but they serve different purposes. Understanding their differences will help you decide which one fits your business needs.
What is Amazon DSP?
Amazon DSP allows advertisers to target audiences on and off Amazon using behavioral data. While PPC is the main tool for all sellers, and DSP is a great next step if you have a strong PPC foundation and want to expand your reach. If your goal is growth beyond keyword targeting, DSP can be a game-changer.
Amazon DSP is best used for:
Retargeting – People who viewed your product but didn’t buy. Loyalty campaigns – Re-engaging past customers (great for consumables). Competitor targeting – Showing ads to users who visited competitor listings. Top-of-funnel awareness – Reaching new audiences beyond search results.
What is Amazon PPC?
Amazon PPC (Pay-Per-Click) is the foundation of Amazon advertising. PPC is essential before considering DSP. If your PPC campaigns are profitable, well-optimized, and converting at a strong rate, then you can consider adding DSP.
There are three major types of PPC ads:
Sponsored Products – Appear in search results and product detail pages (best for conversions). Sponsored Brands – Banner ads and video ads that increase brand visibility. Sponsored Display – Retargeting ads on and off Amazon.
