Sponsored Products, Headline Search, and Product Display Ads help brands increase customers' discovery of their products on Amazon.ca based on relevant keyword searches, products, and shopper interests. Amazon.ca brands can also now create their own Amazon Store – a free, customizable, multipage shopping experience that showcases the brand and a curated product selection. Brands can start their campaigns and create an Amazon Store at https://ams.amazon.ca. Amazon Marketing Services complements a collection of Amazon advertising solutions, designed to add value to customers' shopping and entertainment experiences while helping brands build meaningful connections with customers. Amazon introduced display advertising on Amazon.ca in 2015. Its offering also spans advertising on websites both within and outside of Canada including IMDb, Twitch, and programmatically on third-party sites and mobile apps. "We've seen a wide variety of brands experience strong results using Amazon Marketing Services in other regions – increasing their discoverability on Amazon search results and relevant product pages, and helping to positively impact sales," said Tamir Bar-Haim, head of Amazon's advertising business in Canada. "We're excited to expand the range of advertising solutions available to brands on Amazon.ca, particularly as we head into the holiday shopping season." "Amazon Marketing Services helps customers find and discover more products they may love, while helping both large, established brands and small, start-up brands eficiently boost discoverability and deepen customer engagement on Amazon.ca," said Colleen Aubrey, Vice President of performance advertising at Amazon. Amazon Marketing Services campaigns can be easily created using a simple, self-service interface – no technical or website experience is required. Products can be used individually or in combination to help customers discover products in prominent placements above and within search results and on relevant product pages across Amazon.ca.
Sponsored Products, Headline Search Ads, and Product Display Ads are shown based on an auction model. Advertisers provide what they're willing to pay for each click, and only pay when a customer clicks on their ad. Amazon's systems are continually working to show customers only the most relevant ads, ensuring advertisers receive high quality clicks. "AMS gives Amazon vendors the ability to determine their own performance and effectively impact sales results through targeted marketing activity," said Yoram Weinreich, Chief Growth Officer for Simpli Home. "This self-service tool allows us to promote our products with pay-per-click functionality to help grow our product categories on Amazon. We expect the introduction of this tool will really improve our results in Canada, as it has in the USA." "We are excited to see Amazon Marketing Services come to life in Canada as a solution for our clients," said Armin Huska, Chief Digital Officer at Mindshare Canada. "The opportunity for our advertisers to raise visibility on the digital shelf-space and increase sales at the same time is a compelling value-proposition. That is why the Mindshare team has fostered early on a full collaboration with Amazon to help deliver the right results for our clients and relevant experiences to Amazon customers."
