Sponsored brand strategies reach customers and drive product awareness. When shoppers click on your brand logo, they go to your store or a customer landing page. When they click on a product, they go to the product page.
How It Works
-
The algorithm automatically creates at least two campaigns per Sponsored Brand strategy.
Depending on your chosen objective:
-
-
ACOS Optimisation or Monthly Budget Management → Enables bid optimisation.
-
Constant Bid → No bid optimisation until you switch to one of the other two options.
-
Within each Sponsored Brand strategy, you can:
-
-
Create two types of tactics:
-
Targeting (focus on keywords)
-
Blacklist (exclude underperforming keywords)
-
-
-
-
Each tactic can generate up to two campaigns.

How to create a Sponsored Brand strategy
Go to Advertising > SB and click on " Create Strategy"
- Name your strategy and select the relevant Brand (if managing multiple )
- Choose an algorithm type
- For ACOS optimisation: Set your ACOS target
- For Constant Bid: Set a suggested bid and budget
- For Monthly Budget Target: set a monthly budget
- Choose an ad format
- Set up your creative
- Choose the ASIN(s)
Select the products you want to see displayed in your Sponsored Brand ad by creating at least one Cluster. Just drag and drop the products to the New Cluster. You can create several Product Clusters with different products. You will create a Sponsored Brand ad for each Cluster, with the same logo, the same brand name, and the same headline. Only the products displayed in the ad will be different.

Our Recommendation
-
For new product launches:
Start with a Constant Bid strategy. Once enough data is collected (at least 1 sale), you can switch to Monthly Budget or ACOS Optimisation for improved performance. -
Pause or archive any historical Sponsored Brand campaigns the day after launching your m19 strategy.
⚠️ Important: The algorithm won’t be able to optimize effectively if legacy campaigns are still active on the same ASINs
Common questions
Why was my campaign rejected by Amazon?
Sponsored Brand ads are manually reviewed. Approvals may vary by reviewer. If rejected:
-
The m19 algorithm will automatically retry the submission until approval is achieved.
-
The reason for rejection isn't visible via the API.
What if multiple ad lines target the same keyword?
The algorithm will test all ad lines. The best-performing ones will receive the majority of the budget, ensuring your spend is optimized based on actual performance.
