12:56 Which campaigns should you spend time/money on with a tight budget to get the most “bang for your buck”
14:35 In the supplementary category, what is the best way to know the CRO and CvR of my competitors
16:23 How do you decide bids? Is there a specific calculation that you do according to your targeted ACOS? Or is it just according to the bid suggestions provided by AMZ

21:18 How would you structure campaigns for launch when you have a product with a price higher than average on AMZ? Is there a specific strategy you will suggest or approach to take

35:33 I don’t use phrase and broad targeting. Should I start doing and what to start with
37:43 Does dayparting work (turning on & off your Ads at specific times of day)? Do you think Amazon will ever add that feature to advertising
39:32 How do you use the CVR metric when optimizing bids? Because when you lower the bids, your placement decreases which help with the CPC but the CVR decreases which means the ACOS will stay the same

42:47 If the Amazon suggested bids are mostly $2 above, do you still add a 20% bid increase? Do you use fixed bids
