Looking to optimize your Amazon PPC campaigns faster and more efficiently? Amazon bulk files are one of the most powerful yet underutilized tools in a seller’s arsenal. With bulk operations, you can update bids, pause low-performing keywords, and fine-tune your campaigns in minutes—not hours.
If you’re still manually editing Amazon ads through the UI, it’s time to upgrade your workflow and embrace data-driven bulk file optimization.
In this post, you’ll learn:
- What Amazon bulk files are
- Why they’re critical for PPC campaign efficiency
- Step-by-step how to use them for better performance
- How to scale results further with AI-powered tools like Bidventor
What Are Amazon Bulk Files?
Amazon bulk files are downloadable CSV spreadsheets containing all of your advertising campaign data across:
- Sponsored Products
- Sponsored Brands
- Sponsored Display
These files allow sellers to make mass edits to Amazon ads, including:
- Bid adjustments
- Keyword changes
- Adding/removing match types
- Setting up negative targeting
- Editing product targeting and ad group settings
Rather than manually adjusting each campaign inside the Amazon Ads Console, you can simply update values in the spreadsheet and re-upload it. This makes managing large portfolios significantly faster and more accurate.
Why Amazon PPC Optimization Is Faster with Bulk Files
Manual PPC optimization is slow, error-prone, and inefficient. If you’re scaling an Amazon store or managing multiple SKUs, the Amazon Ads dashboard becomes unmanageable fast.
Using Amazon bulk operations helps you:
- Save time on manual edits
- Detect underperforming keywords at scale
- Optimize bids across dozens (or hundreds) of campaigns
- Identify trends and patterns that improve ROI
Common Challenges Solved with Bulk Files:
- High ACoS due to poorly optimized keywords
- Wasted ad spend on non-converting search terms
- Inconsistent bid management across campaigns
- Difficulty scaling campaigns without automation
Step-by-Step: How to Use Amazon Bulk Files for PPC Optimization
Ready to put bulk files to work? Here’s how to optimize your Amazon ads using bulk operations:
Step 1: Download Your Amazon Bulk File
- Log in to your Amazon Advertising Console
- Navigate to the Bulk Operations tab
- Select a date range (minimum 14 days recommended)
- Choose campaign types to include
- Click Generate, then download the .csv file
📝 Tip: Always save an unedited backup of the original file.
Step 2: Analyze the Data for Optimization
Open the CSV file in Excel or Google Sheets.
Focus on these key performance indicators:
- Spend vs Sales
- ACoS (Advertising Cost of Sales)
- CTR (Click-Through Rate)
- Conversion Rate
Example Optimization Actions:
- Pause keywords with high spend and zero sales
- Lower bids on high ACoS keywords
- Increase bids on low ACoS, high-converting terms
- Add negative keywords to eliminate irrelevant traffic
Use Excel formulas to automate bid changes (e.g., increase bids by 10% where ACoS < 30%).
Step 3: Edit the Bulk File
In your sheet:
- Update “Bid” column with new values
- Use “Update” in the “Record Type” column
- Add Negative Keywords where needed
- Ensure status is “Enabled” or “Paused” correctly
✔ Pro Tip: Use filters and conditional formatting to highlight high-spend, low-converting rows.
Step 4: Re-Upload the Edited File
- Save your changes as a .csv
- Return to Bulk Operations in Amazon Ads
- Upload the edited file
- Amazon will process and implement the updates
You’ve just optimized your Amazon PPC account in bulk.

How Bidventor Enhances Bulk File Strategy:
- Predictive Bid Adjustments: Bidventor analyzes keyword-level data (CTR, conversion rate, ACoS) and adjusts bids based on real-time performance—no guesswork.
- Pre-Optimized Upload Files: The tool generates bulk files that are already optimized and formatted for Amazon’s upload standards.
- Budget Protection: Identifies and neutralizes ad spend leaks by auto-pausing underperforming keywords before they burn your budget.
