In this article, you’ll learn how to create campaigns using Intentwise. Campaigns Dashboard can be found in the left navigation menu.
Getting Started With Campaigns Dashboard
Types of Campaigns
Within Intentwise, you can launch two distinct campaign types: Self-Managed and Intentwise Managed Autonomous Campaigns.
With Self-Managed Campaigns, you retain full control over the account structure and oversee all facets of campaign execution. Utilize Intentwise's optimization tools to enhance performance effectively.
On the other hand, Autonomous Campaigns are streamlined single ASIN campaigns. Here, Intentwise takes the helm, handling everything from rule-based harvesting (Keywords and ASINs) to providing bid recommendations, ensuring hassle-free campaign management.
Difference between Self-Managed and Autonomous Campaigns
Self-Managed Campaigns | Intentwise Managed Autonomous Campaigns |
You define and execute the campaign structure independently. | Intentwise oversees campaign execution, from rule harvesting to bid management. |
You can create multiple ASIN Campaign Types | Single ASIN campaigns are created for each selected Campaign Type |
Steps for Creating Campaigns

Set Budgets and Target ACOS: Set bids and Target ACOS for Competitor, Brand, and Non-Brand keywords to target each specifically, allowing simultaneous campaigns for a single keyword.
Add/Verify Brand Terms: This field comes pre-filled with your brand terms. Learn how to add brand terms. Include Brand terms in the global setting to avoid the algorithm suggesting your brand keywords. A brand term is also essential for creating a comprehensive Brand campaign.
Add Targets: Choose Amazon-Suggested Keywords/ASINs, add Custom Targets, or both. For targeting competitors' keywords/ASINs along with custom keywords, select Custom Targets.
Set Bids: Choose between Amazon Suggested Bids or Custom Bids and apply bids in bulk. To efficiently manage your bids, filter by match type, targeting type, category, or campaign.
Note: This step is automatically handled in autonomous campaigns and doesn't appear in the flow.
Launch Campaigns: Download and review campaigns before launching or launch them directly. The campaign will appear in the draft section during processing, then move to the active campaigns dashboard once complete.

Managing Campaigns
Using Roll Ups
You can use the roll up feature to see the aggregated performance on a portfolio, campaign type, label, or sub-brand level. This helps analyze campaign performance on different levels.
Applying Filters
You can apply filters to identify areas of improvement. For example, you could filter campaigns where the bid strategy is Dynamic bids - up and down. You can then select all the campaigns and use the top bar to edit the bid strategy to Dynamic bids - down only or Fixed bids.
You can also save your desired filters and create alerts. Learn more about using alerts.
Performing bulk actions
You can select multiple campaigns to edit, pause, archive, or label in bulk. You can also update your daily budget for individual campaigns directly from this screen.
