Why Amazon DSP is The DSP that Matters for Local Advertisers

featuring Grant Covell and Hilary Turner

Read time: 4 minutes

In our latest webinar, Revive Media CRO Danielle Shamos sat down with Grant Covell, Head of Local Agency Partnerships at Amazon Ads, to explore why Amazon DSP has become essential for local advertisers, particularly in streaming TV (CTV) and omnichannel campaigns. They also spotlighted a real-world success story with CBC Automotive, showing how local businesses can drive smarter reach and measurable results.

What Makes Amazon DSP Stand Out for Local?

Danielle and Grant broke down four core reasons why Amazon DSP is uniquely positioned to help local advertisers win:

  • Unmatched Audience Signals: Over 1 billion daily insights power precise targeting based on real shopping and streaming behaviors.

  • Premium Inventory Access: Exclusive reach on Prime Video, Alexa devices, and Twitch, combined with partnerships with Roku, Disney, and other top streamers, creates the largest ad-supported audience in CTV.

  • Simplified Activation: With Revive’s Convoy ad enablement software, agencies can easily plan, activate, and optimize campaigns at scale.

  • Advanced Reporting: Leveraging Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC), partners gain deep visibility into reach, frequency, and conversions—both across Amazon and third-party publishers.

A Game-Changing Moment in CTV

Amazon’s expanded partnerships with Roku, Disney, Warner Bros., and more now give advertisers a verified, cross-publisher view of reach and frequency—solving one of CTV’s biggest challenges. Early results showed a 40% increase in unique reach and a 27% reduction in over-frequency, making ad spend work smarter, not harder.

Revive’s Convoy Platform: Built for Agencies

Revive’s new platform, Convoy, helps agency partners activate Amazon campaigns faster and more efficiently, with:

  • Streamlined forecasting and booking through the Amazon DSP API

  • Custom AMC reports that measure incremental reach and reduce media waste

  • Curated, premium inventory packages for turnkey local activation

  • White-labeled dashboards and automated reporting for client transparency

Partner Success Story: CBC Automotive & Kia Country of Savannah

With a data-driven local strategy and AMC insights, they achieved:

✅ +7% unique reach improvement

Hillary Turner from CBC Automotive shared that Amazon’s targeting capabilities, ease of partnership, and full-funnel measurement have made it a trusted strategic advantage for their automotive clients.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

  1. Hello
  2. Hello

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
