How advertisers can use Amazon DSP
Amazon DSP is best suited to advertisers who want to programmatically buy display, video and audio ads at scale.
You can use Amazon DSP to support a wide variety of advertising goals. For example, for audiences that have already visited your product page, you can remarket to them on Amazon, where they are likely to be in the mindset to purchase. Or, if your goal is to drive brand awareness and expand your audience, then you could reach new customers off-site with a video that introduces your brand and top products.
