Amazon Ads Specialist for KDP Christmas Keepsake Book

I am a German author and independent publisher looking for an experienced Amazon Ads specialist with specific KDP/book advertising experience to launch and optimize a seasonal campaign for my English-language Advent keepsake journal on Amazon.com. The book The Special Advent Calendar for Grandma and Grandpa A Keepsake Journal for Treasured Childhood Memories The book is already published through Amazon KDP. This is not a traditional Advent calendar. It is a meaningful Christmas gift and keepsake journal designed to bring generations together. Over 24 days, Grandma and Grandpa are invited to share childhood memories, family stories, traditions and personal experiences with their children and grandchildren. The main US target audiences are adults looking for a meaningful Christmas gift for parents or grandparents, grandparents who want to preserve their memories, and families interested in family history and intergenerational storytelling. What I need For an initial 4-week test campaign, I need: US keyword and search-term research competitor and comparable-book research relevant ASIN research for product targeting setup of Sponsored Products campaigns automatic and manual keyword campaigns Exact, Phrase and Broad Match where appropriate product/ASIN targeting negative keyword strategy bid and daily budget recommendations monitoring and optimization during the test period identification of converting search terms a short final report with recommendations The advertising budget for the initial test phase will be approximately $150–175, separate from the freelancer fee. If the test produces promising results, I intend to continue and scale the campaign during November and early December 2026. When applying, please answer: What experience do you have specifically with Amazon Ads for KDP books? Have you advertised seasonal, Christmas, gift, journal or family/keepsake books? How would you structure the first four weeks? What daily advertising budget would you recommend for this book? Please provide examples of KDP campaigns you have managed and, if possible, their results. Which metrics would you use to determine whether the campaign is successful? What would you do differently because this is a strongly seasonal Christmas title? My goal is not simply to generate clicks or impressions. I want to identify keywords, search terms and competing products that generate book sales and can then be scaled intelligently during the Christmas season. Please begin your application with the words “Advent Keepsake” so I know you have read the complete description. This is initially a small, focused project. If the cooperation and results are good, I am interested in continuing the collaboration through the 2026 Christmas season.
