If you have a big Amazon catalogue, there is no way to automatically pause products in bulk using Amazon's native tools. External tools exist but they often charge high fees as a percentage of your revenue or ad spend. Even with a dedicated team, going through campaign manager and selecting products one by one could take days or weeks for large accounts with thousands of products.
In this video, I show you how to pause Amazon products in bulk automatically using Claude AI and your bulk file from campaign manager. This Amazon PPC management technique can be done in minutes instead of days, saving you significant time and money on your Amazon advertising campaigns.
The process works by combining your Amazon business reports with your bulk file export. Claude calculates your average selling price by taking order product sales and units sold, then determines which products need to be paused based on your price threshold. This is perfect if you want to pause everything under a certain price point, like products under $15 or above $1,000.
Here is what you need to prepare for this Amazon PPC optimization process. First, download your business reports from Seller Central. Navigate to business reports, then detail page sales and traffic by ASIN, and select your desired date range. Second, export your bulk file from campaign manager by clicking the arrow on the left, selecting bulk operations, and hitting download campaigns.
When downloading your bulk file, include paused campaigns in the export. This prevents team members from accidentally re-enabling campaigns with unprofitable products. Skip sponsored brand ads since you cannot pause individual ASINs in sponsored brand campaigns. Focus on sponsored products data and sponsored display data for this Amazon advertising optimization.
The prompt logic is designed to handle multiple scenarios in your Amazon PPC campaigns. If a product ad is enabled and the ad group is enabled, it pauses the product. If the product is enabled but the ad group is paused, it still pauses the product so it stays off even if the ad group gets re-enabled later. If the ad is already paused, it skips that row to avoid unnecessary changes.
The prompt also groups live products per campaign. If all products in a campaign end up paused, it pauses the entire campaign. If there are mixed products where some should remain active, it only pauses the individual products and never the campaign itself. This intelligent Amazon campaign management approach ensures your Amazon ads continue running for profitable products.
As output, Claude provides two files. The first is your modified bulk file ready to upload back to campaign manager. The second is an original backup file you can use to revert changes if something does not go as planned. This backup is essential for safe Amazon PPC campaign management.
For accounts with close to 64,000 rows in their bulk file, imagine the manual work required to check each ASIN individually. That would require countless VLOOKUP formulas and hours of tedious work. With this AI-powered approach to Amazon advertising management, the entire process takes just a couple of minutes.
This technique is tailored for both Amazon sellers and vendors who want to improve their Amazon PPC strategy by removing unprofitable products from their advertising. Whether you use business reports to calculate average selling price or have a custom list of ASINs you want to pause, this process adapts to your needs.
