  1. 01DSP vs sponsored ads4 lessons

    What the DSP does that Sponsored Ads cannot: audiences instead of keywords, inventory on and off Amazon, and the budgets and formats that make sense for a brand's size.

  2. 02Audiences and supply4 lessons

    In-market, lifestyle, remarketing and lookalike audiences, Amazon-owned and third-party supply, frequency and the creative formats each placement needs.

  3. 03Streaming TV4 lessons

    Streaming TV and online video: how Amazon sells it, what it costs, and how to judge it with the measurement that is actually available.

  4. 04AMC basics4 lessons

    What Amazon Marketing Cloud is, how its clean-room queries work, and the first reports worth running: path to purchase, overlap and new-to-brand.

  5. 05AMC audiences3 lessons

    Building AMC audiences from your own signals, attaching them to DSP and Sponsored campaigns, and the cases where they beat standard audiences.

  6. 06Measurement3 lessons

    New-to-brand, incrementality and the limits of attribution: how to tell whether DSP added sales or just claimed them.

Who this course is for

  • PPC specialists moving into programmatic for the first time
  • Brands that have outgrown Sponsored Ads and want to reach shoppers off the search page
  • Agency staff who need to plan and measure DSP properly
  • Marketers who have DSP access and are not sure what it is doing

Before you start

A working knowledge of Sponsored Ads. DSP access through Amazon or an agency is needed to run campaigns; the course can be followed without it for planning and measurement.

What you leave with

You will finish with a full-funnel DSP plan for your brand with audiences, formats and budget by stage, one AMC audience built, and a measurement plan that states what success looks like before you spend.

How the course is delivered

  • Self-paced video

    Recorded in the DSP console and the AMC query editor.

  • Query library

    AMC SQL queries you can run as they are and adapt.

  • Planning templates

    A full-funnel budget planner and a measurement framework.

  • Test and certificate

    A final test and a certificate you can share.

Certificate, team seats and updates

Every PPC Spider Academy course works the same way, so you know what you are buying before you enroll.

  • Pass the test, get the certificate

    Each course ends with a test. Pass it and you get a certificate of completion for the course that you can share on LinkedIn or show an employer.

  • Team seats with progress tracking

    Buy seats for a team and see who has finished which module, so a new hire follows a structured path instead of learning by accident.

  • Updated when Amazon changes

    Lessons are re-recorded when the console, a report or a policy changes, and the updated lesson is added to the course you already own at no extra cost.

  • Refund within 14 days

    If the course is not what you needed, ask for a refund within 14 days, provided you have watched less than a quarter of it.

Rather have it done for you?

Everything in this course is what the PPC Spider team does on client accounts every day, with SpiderOS watching between reviews. If you would rather hand it over, the Amazon DSP and Streaming TV management service picks up exactly where the syllabus ends, with published plans and the free audit first.

Amazon DSP and AMC questions

What is the minimum budget for DSP?

Amazon sets minimums that vary by managed or self-service access and by region. The course explains how access works and what to ask for rather than quoting a figure that changes.

Do I need AMC to take the course?

No. The DSP modules stand alone. AMC modules are easier to follow with access, and the query library is ready for when you get it.

Is DSP right for a small brand?

Often not yet. The course includes a readiness checklist, and the honest answer for many brands is to finish the work in Sponsored Ads first.

Does it cover Sponsored TV?

Yes, as the self-service entry point to video and TV, alongside DSP streaming TV.
