Amazon Ads ACOS FAQ


What is break-even ACOS?
Break-even ACOS is the maximum advertising cost you can spend before losing money on a sale. It is calculated by dividing your royalty by the book price.

Why is break-even ACOS important for KDP authors?
Understanding your break-even ACOS helps you run profitable Amazon Ads campaigns and avoid spending more on ads than you earn from book royalties.

How do I calculate Amazon Ads ACOS?
ACOS is calculated by dividing ad spend by sales revenue and multiplying by 100.

What is a good ACOS for Amazon Ads?
A good ACOS depends on your goals. If your ACOS is below your break-even ACOS, your campaign is profitable. Many authors aim for an ACOS between 20% and 40%, but the ideal value depends on royalties and pricing.

How do KDP authors calculate profitable Amazon Ads campaigns?
KDP authors calculate profitability by comparing advertising costs with book royalties. If the advertising cost per sale is lower than the royalty earned, the campaign is profitable.

Why do many Amazon Ads campaigns lose money?
Many campaigns lose money because advertisers do not know their break-even ACOS. Without calculating the maximum ACOS they can afford, they may spend more on ads than they earn from book sales.
