E449: The Intricacies of DSP Advertising with Martin Zerrudo

Mike talks to Seller Universe Ecommerce Group CEO Martin Zerrudo about Amazon DSP and how brands can successfully leverage ads with it.   A relatively new system, Amazon's demand-side platform (DSP) analyzes consumer data and finds the right customers to target ads with.    Unlike Facebook or Google ads, DSP gives you access to a wider network of third-party sites and reach people both on and off Amazon, albeit a pricier option.   A fair warning: doing ads with DSP can get very granular and specific, which can be intimidating to those unfamiliar with it. However, it can be highly effective when executed correctly.   I tried out DSP ads last year with IceWraps and although we didn't get the results we wanted, I still think it's a great system.   We have Martin with us today to give us better insight into how the system works and what makes it a formidable tool for ecommerce brands.   Martin, thank you for coming on the podcast and for sharing that message from August.
