#521 - The Future of Amazon Ads: Why Video Campaigns Win in 2025 ft. Trevin Peterson

Author: Andy Isom | Amazon FBA Seller & Agency Founder November 10, 2025 Duration: 20:02

In this exclusive Amazon Accelerate Interview, I sat down with Trevin Peterson, one of the most recognized voices in the Amazon FBA space, to unpack the evolution of Amazon Ads - from the early days of basic Sponsored Products to today's full-funnel, content-driven ad ecosystem.

 

Trevin shares how he went from discovering FBA in 2017 to building multiple 7-figure brands, and reveals the biggest shifts every seller needs to understand heading into 2025, including:

 

  • Why video ads are the most undervalued opportunity on Amazon right now

  • The difference between ACOS vs. TACOS (and why most sellers track the wrong metric)

  • How to use Amazon Influencers and Creator Connections to boost conversions

  • What makes Sponsored Brands and Sponsored Display essential for a complete ad funnel

  • Why "trusting the process" matters when scaling profitably through PPC

 

Whether you're a beginner trying to understand Amazon advertising or a brand owner optimizing ad spend across multiple campaigns, this episode will help you see where the real leverage is hiding in 2025.
