Should You Advertise on Your Own Branded Terms? Are you wondering if advertising on your own branded terms is a waste of money or if it might cannibalize your organic growth? In this video, Noah Wickham, VP of Sales & Marketing at My Amazon Guy, breaks down the importance of branded term ads and how they help protect your market share on Amazon.

If you sell a product with limited brand loyalty and a relatively low search volume, advertising your branded terms isn’t just beneficial – it’s essential! By utilizing Amazon PPC defensive campaigns, you ensure that competitors don’t steal your sales by showing up for your branded keywords. Branded keyword targeting can prevent competitors from taking over your top spots and ensures your Amazon listings remain visible.
