Alternatives to Teikametrics
Alternatives to Teikametrics

Amazon PPC is diverse and ever changing. Automation softwares stand as linchpin for businesses striving to move fast in the digital space. Tiekametrics is a popular software for Amazon and Walmart advertising. Their USP is their “Flywheel” platform that uses AI to help brands improve advertising performance.

Tiekametrics

But Tiekametrics has some downsides. For ex. consider some of the following reviews from Google:

“Signed up to Teikametrics, a total waste of money. I am very experienced with keywords and thought this platform would save me time. However, all my products lost ranking, incorrect bidding on keywords, money was being spent in a massive way on keywords that were not converting to sales. But Teikametrics is meant to save costs by putting non-performing keywords into negative keywords. This does not happen; they just spin keywords to produce more sales to take more money from you and not meeting ACOS targets, even though they were set to 15%, they were running at 30-40. This is a total scam and waste of money. After a week of deactivating this, I changed all my own keywords and went from £200 a day to £800. Customers also beware, a lot of reviews look fake.”

“This software is not designed for all products - be very careful. We lost 0000's using this. I would not recommend! We also used their managed services at a cost of $5000, although extremely polite, they could not even get it to work.”

Thankfully, there are great alternatives to choose from when it comes to managing advertising for brands as well as agencies. Following are our top picks:
