Amazon PPC for Pet Supplies
Pet is a loyalty category: win the first purchase and the reorder is yours. That changes the math on what a first-order ACOS is allowed to be.
Across our 63-brand portfolio we run this playbook with total-demand keyword mapping — Product Opportunity Explorer, Search Query Performance, Brand Analytics and AMC combined — so budget moves to the demand you're missing, not just the keywords you already convert on.

Questions
What does Amazon PPC cost in Pet Supplies?
Typical Pet Supplies CPCs on Amazon US run $1.00–$2.00 depending on keyword type — head terms at the top of that range, long-tails well below it. A workable ACOS band for the category is usually 20–30%, though your margins and repeat-purchase economics set the real target.
What ACOS should a Pet Supplies seller aim for?
Most healthy Pet Supplies accounts we see land in the 20–30% range on blended ACOS. The better question is TACOS by ASIN — total ad spend against total revenue — which shows whether ads are building organic rank or just renting sales.
How is ATIL priced for this category?
By parent ASIN, not by ad spend: Try Us $200/month for 2–3 hero ASINs, Starter $499 up to 10, Growth $999 up to 25, Enterprise custom above that. Month-to-month, ad spend stays yours.
