Introduction & Welcome
Sreenath Reddy:
Hey everyone—thank you for joining us! We’ll get started in just a minute or two. I know it’s Day 3 of Prime Day, and we appreciate you taking the time to be here.
While we wait, I want to invite everyone to join the Intentwise Learning Community. It’s a space for practitioners to share insights, discuss trends, and get help navigating platforms like Amazon Ads, AMC, Walmart Ads, and more. If you're not already a member, highly recommend joining!
Let’s get into today’s session. We’re diving into how to analyze and act on Prime Day data to drive post-event success. Joining me is Kenton Snyder, Product Evangelist here at Intentwise.
Unlocking Post-Prime Day Insights with AMC
Kenton Snyder:
Thanks, Sreenath! One of the most powerful tools at your disposal post-Prime Day is Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC). It helps you go beyond standard attribution and get a deeper view into how Prime Day really performed.
For example, you may have seen lots of clicks and traffic—but without AMC, it's hard to tell if those visits converted later or how they moved down the funnel.
What Metrics to Focus on After Prime Day
Kenton Snyder:
Here are the top metrics you should review post-Prime Day:
- New-to-brand purchases: Are you gaining actual net-new customers, or just repeat buyers?
- Latent conversions: Look for purchases that happened days or weeks after Prime Day, influenced by your campaigns.
- Ad-assisted conversions: Use AMC to connect upper-funnel tactics with lower-funnel purchases.
Budget Reallocation Based on Performance
Sreenath Reddy:
We often treat Prime Day as a standalone event—but it’s a huge data opportunity for Q3 and Q4 planning.
Ask yourself: What worked? What didn’t? Where can we shift spend?
If DSP prospecting outperformed Sponsored Products during Prime Day, that tells you where to go next.
Audience Retargeting Strategies
Kenton Snyder:
This is one of the most underutilized tactics: retargeting Prime Day audiences.
People who browsed, added to cart, or clicked on ads but didn’t convert—these are your hottest prospects.
Use DSP or AMC to build audiences and retarget them with tailored messaging.
Operational Planning & SKU Strategy
Sreenath Reddy:
Prime Day also gives you operational insights. Did your top SKUs run out of stock? Did some products underperform despite high ad spend?
Use those learnings to adjust inventory planning, pricing strategy, and content optimizations.
Final Takeaways
Kenton Snyder:
To sum up:
- Use AMC for true attribution
- Build lookback audiences for retargeting
- Reallocate budget based on high-performing formats
- Use the data to inform Q4 strategies
Sreenath Reddy:
Absolutely. The best advertisers treat Prime Day as a launchpad, not an endpoint.
