Real numbers from accounts I've managed
Brand names, products and ASINs are removed and figures are rounded. Most of these were agency engagements at My Amazon Guy: I managed the PPC as part of a team, so the results belong to that team too. Each before/after compares the same kind of 30-day ad window taken from the account's own exports. Seasonality isn't adjusted for, so I note where a sales event falls inside a window.

Scaling ad sales faster than spend
Period: the earliest 30-day backup on file (Jun–Jul 2025, which included Prime Day) vs. March 2026.
What changed in the files: enabled campaigns were consolidated from about 1,370 to 625, and negative coverage roughly tripled.
Where it landed: April 2026 brought about $780K in total sales at a 20% ACoS and an 11.7% TACoS.

Black Friday on a 4,000-ASIN catalog
Period: the 30 days before Nov 12 vs. the 30 days to Dec 4, 2024, covering Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
What happened: ad spend was scaled about 2.2x into the holiday peak, and ACoS stayed level instead of climbing. Most of the sales lift is seasonal. The point here is that efficiency held at that volume.

Rebuilding a small ad account: first 3 weeks
Period: the first 3 weeks (Sep 17 – Oct 7, 2026) vs. the 3 weeks before I took over.
What I did: rebuilt the campaigns from Brand Analytics and competitor keyword research and scaled spend from a very small base. A keyword-driven listing rewrite is in progress.
Honest caveat: TACoS rose from about 10% to 30% while spend was rebuilt. This is three weeks of data, not a finished result.

Cheaper clicks, steady ACoS
Period: a 30-day window to early Dec 2023 vs. one to early Aug 2024. Both windows include a sales event.
What changed in the files: negative targeting nearly doubled and clicks grew 76% at a lower CPC. On the Canada storefront, spend was cut by more than half and ACoS fell from 26% to 15%.

Period: a 30-day window to early Mar 2026 vs. one to mid-Jul 2026.

All results at a glance
Ad metrics are Amazon's click-attributed figures from 30-day bulk exports. Total sales and TACoS come from Business Reports where those were available. Figures are rounded and nothing here is extrapolated. Most of these accounts were agency engagements, so the results are shared with the team.
