November 17, 2020 | By Kelly Kupers, Product Marketing Program Manager

We’ve introduced several new features within Amazon DSP to help you engage customers and more easily manage your campaigns. Here’s what we rolled out in October 2020.

Customer first

New tab for audience discovery

Amazon DSP helps advertisers and agency build relevant audience segments. Improved audience strategies improve the relevancy of ads making for a better customer experience and higher performing campaigns. The Audiences tab introduces comprehensive audience exploration and management capabilities.

You can also filter for audiences that are already available for inclusion in campaigns, or new audiences that are being reviewed for approval. Furthermore, you can now view, browse, and sort audiences by forecasted reach and impressions, or by other fields including creation and audience modification date.
