## Frequently Asked Questions

What is break-even CPC and why does it matter?

Break-even CPC is the maximum you can pay per click before your campaign stops being profitable. Formula: Break-even CPC = Net Margin per Unit × (Conversion Rate ÷ 100). If your net margin is $10 and CVR is 10%, your break-even CPC is $1.00. Every bid above this costs you money on every click.

How do I calculate Amazon ACoS?

ACoS = (Total Ad Spend ÷ Ad-Attributed Revenue) × 100. If you spend $200 on ads and generate $800 in sales, your ACoS is 25%. A profitable campaign has ACoS below your break-even ACoS, which equals your net margin percentage. Break-even ACoS = Net Revenue per Unit ÷ Selling Price × 100.

What is a good ROAS on Amazon?

ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) = Revenue ÷ Ad Spend. A ROAS of 3× means every $1 in ads generates $3 in revenue. Most profitable Amazon brands target 4–6× ROAS. Below 2× usually indicates either unprofitable keywords or a product with poor conversion rate. ROAS is more useful than ACoS when comparing across products with different margins.

How much should I spend on Amazon PPC?

Start with 10–15% of your target monthly revenue for new ASINs, scaling to 5–10% as organic rank improves. The key metric is TACOS (Total ACoS = Ad Spend ÷ Total Revenue). Elite brands run 5–10% TACOS, meaning ads amplify organic growth rather than replacing it. Above 20% TACOS signals over-reliance on paid traffic.

Why is my conversion rate low on Amazon?

The main drivers of Amazon CVR are: main image quality, price competitiveness (within top 3 of category), review count and rating (4.0+ average needed), title keyword alignment with search intent, and A+ Content. A CVR below 8% almost always points to a listing quality issue. Fix these before optimizing bids — a 2% CVR lift has more ROI than a 30% bid reduction.

## FAQ

### What is break-even CPC on Amazon?

Break-even CPC is the maximum cost-per-click you can pay before your Amazon PPC campaign becomes unprofitable. Formula: Break-even CPC = Net Margin per Unit × (Conversion Rate ÷ 100). If your net margin per unit is $10 and your conversion rate is 10%, your break-even CPC is $1.00.

### How do I calculate Amazon ACoS?

ACoS (Advertising Cost of Sales) = (Total Ad Spend ÷ Ad-Attributed Revenue) × 100. Your break-even ACoS equals your net margin percentage. If your net margin is 25%, your break-even ACoS is 25%. Any ACoS below this is profitable.

### What is a good Amazon ROAS?

ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) = Revenue ÷ Ad Spend. Most profitable Amazon sellers target 4–6× ROAS. Below 2× typically indicates unprofitable campaigns. The right ROAS target depends on your product margin — high-margin products can sustain lower ROAS.
