In this episode, we revisit the classic Research, Peel, Stick & Block (RPSB) strategy with Clément Hynaux, campaign manager at Ad Badger. Originally introduced in 2018, we break down how it has evolved over the years, whether it’s still relevant in 2025, and how to adapt it to modern Amazon PPC practices. We dive into campaign structure, which is much more complex than it seems, and discuss why it’s more like "vegetables" 🥕 than "chocolate."🍫 We analyze the impact of rising CPCs on keyword research, debate whether blocking keywords in source campaigns is still a good practice, and explore the concept of search term graduation, which has gradually replaced the traditional RPSB approach.

Are your ads failing because you're not testing placement-specific campaigns? Let’s talk about what we uncovered. Here’s the hard truth: most Amazon sellers waste up to 90% of their ad spend on clicks that don’t convert. Shocking, right? But it doesn’t have to be this way. In this episode, we break down why duplicating campaigns and focusing on specific placements like product pages or search results can revolutionize your PPC strategy. Mike Danford, a seasoned pro from Adverio, shares how his team achieved single-digit ACOS by splitting campaigns into two distinct groups—one optimized for top-of-search results, the other laser-focused on product page placements.

If your ACOS feels out of control, it’s not because of your converting clicks. It’s those silent budget thieves—non-converting ones—that are dragging you down. Non-converting spend hides in your reports, and most people ignore it after their first analysis.
