The Amazon Advertising Stack — Troveres
troveres FILE: AAS-002 · Volume II
Forensic Diagnostic Series · Volume II · Free Framework

Your ad spend stopped compounding.
Your agency calls it scaling.

You doubled the budget. Revenue went up 12%.

ACoS looks fine. Total ROAS hasn't moved in four quarters.

Your campaigns are organized by ad type. The brands pulling away organize by buyer.

Five sections your team will fight over.

§ 01 · Persona × Platform
Your team can't name your buyer.
Six personas. Four touchpoints. 24 cells. If your team can't fill it in 30 minutes, you don't have a strategy — you have a spreadsheet.
§ 02 · Compounding Spend
Every ad dollar evaporating, not stacking.
A 10-question scorecard that shows whether your spend compounds — or just resets. Median score from new inquiries: 28/100.
§ 03 · DSP Readiness
DSP: you're ready, or you're being sold.
Must-haves vs. nice-to-haves. The honest answer to whether DSP will compound your stack — or just inflate ROAS that was already there.
§ 04 · Benchmark Data
What a rebuilt stack actually moves.
34 brands, $2M–$25M, six-month window. Same spend, same products. Restructured stack. Numbers in the next section.

Sound familiar yet?

§ 05 · Worksheet
Map your own stack. One page.
Three questions your team will hate. The answers either justify what you're doing — or end the argument.
§ 00 · How to use it
Not a whitepaper. A working doc.
Print it. Mark it up. Argue over it. The value isn't in reading — it's in the gaps it forces you to acknowledge.

Which one would your team fail first?

At scale, Amazon advertising stops being about optimization and starts being about architecture.
From the introduction, p. 02

You can't bid-manage your way out of a structurally broken stack.

Most agencies are still trying.

What a rebuilt stack actually moves.

+87%
Blended ROAS
at the same spend
3.1× → 5.8×
+128%
New-to-Brand
order share
18% → 41%
−55%
Cost per net-new
customer
$42 → $19
+93%
90-day repeat rate
on replenishables
14% → 27%

34 accounts. $2M–$25M. Six months. Same brand, same products, same budget.

Format-based stack → persona-based stack.

Ad-attributed revenue share drops −27%. Total revenue still goes up.

Persona ads build the organic demand the next quarter pays for. Agencies bragging about rising attribution? Their organic is rotting underneath.

How much of your "ad performance" is just cannibalizing what was already going to sell?

If something's off and you can't name it.

You're spending $50K+/mo and watching it disappear.
ROAS flat or sliding while spend keeps climbing. Nobody on your team can explain it.
Campaigns sorted by ad type. Not by who buys. You already suspect that's the problem.
Want to know what your structure is costing you?
DSP disappointed you. Or someone's pitching it hard.

Ask your team this question today:

"Which campaign serves our most valuable buyer?"

If they can't answer without opening a spreadsheet, you don't have a stack. You have a sprawl.
