Optimization suggestions: a daily list of fixes for your Allegro Ads campaigns

Every day, Mink reviews your campaigns and collects specific fixes in one place: which offers to exclude, where to raise the bid and which campaigns run out of budget before the evening. You can apply each suggestion with one click or dismiss it.

Updated: · Mink team
In short
  • You'll find suggestions in the Suggestions ("Podpowiedzi") menu. The number next to the name shows how many are waiting for a decision.
  • Each suggestion shows the problem, the data behind it and the proposed change, e.g. CPC 1.90 PLN → 2.38 PLN.
  • Apply ("Zastosuj") makes the change. In the "⋯" menu you can dismiss a suggestion for 7 days or permanently.
  • In the campaign form you can turn suggestions on, snooze them for 7 days, turn them off or turn off only selected types.

What suggestions are

Optimization suggestions are ready-made proposals for campaign changes, based on campaign results. New ones appear every day. They don't change anything on their own: you decide whether to apply them.

The list of current suggestions: the problem, the campaign, data from recent days and the proposed change with an Apply button.

3 types of suggestions

SuggestionWhen it appearsWhat it proposes
Offers burning budget without conversions ("Oferty przepalają budżet bez konwersji")Offers collected a significant number of clicks in the last 14 days with weak or zero conversions.Excluding these offers so the budget goes to offers that sell.
CPC too low to win traffic ("CPC zbyt niski, by wygrywać ruch")The campaign ran every day for the last 7 days but spent only part of its daily budget, which means it's losing auctions.A higher CPC bid, e.g. 1.90 PLN → 2.38 PLN.
Daily budget runs out before the evening peak ("Budżet dzienny kończy się przed wieczornym szczytem")The campaign uses up its budget before the hours with the highest sales begin.A change that leaves budget for the evening.

When you expand a suggestion (the arrow next to the title), you'll see the reasoning and the data. For offers, this is a table with clicks, spend, conversions and ROI for each offer, plus the ROI of the whole campaign for comparison.

Expanded suggestions: an offer with 31 clicks and an ROI of 1.10 against a campaign ROI of 6.09, and a campaign that spends 30% of its budget on average.

How to use suggestions

  1. Review the Current list

    In the menu, choose Suggestions. The Current ("Aktualne") tab shows suggestions waiting for a decision.

  2. Expand and check the data

    Click the arrow next to the title. Check whether the data matches what you know about the campaign, e.g. whether an offer without sales is actually a new arrival or a seasonal product.

  3. Apply or dismiss

    Apply makes the proposed change. In the ⋯ menu, choose Dismiss for 7 days ("Odrzuć na 7 dni") if you want to come back to it later, or Dismiss permanently ("Odrzuć na stałe") if the suggestion doesn't fit this campaign.

  4. Check the history

    The History ("Historia") tab collects applied suggestions with the date the change was made. That way you can compare results before and after.

Suggestion settings for a campaign

In the manual campaign form, in the Optimization suggestions ("Podpowiedzi optymalizacyjne") section, you decide whether suggestions should appear for this campaign:

  • On ("Włączone"): new suggestions appear every day.
  • Snoozed ("Uśpione"): suggestions are turned off for 7 days, then come back automatically. Useful e.g. during a test or a promotion.
  • Off ("Wyłączone"): no suggestions for this campaign until you turn them back on.

In the Suggestion types ("Rodzaje podpowiedzi") part, you can turn off individual types while the others keep working. Type settings are remembered when you change the mode.

The Optimization suggestions section in a campaign: On, Snoozed or Off mode and toggles for each type.

The campaign's Configuration history ("Historia konfiguracji") does not include suggestion settings. Restoring an older version of the campaign won't change them.

A 5-minute routine with suggestions

Daily

Morning: offers without sales

Start with "Offers burning budget without conversions". It's usually the quickest saving. Skip new arrivals that are only just collecting their first clicks.

Daily

Next: bids

Apply "CPC too low" first in campaigns with good ROAS. That's where a higher bid is most likely to turn into sales.

Weekly

Budget before the peak

When a suggestion about the budget running out before the evening appears, consider budget spending pace or a schedule.

Weekly

Automate what repeats

If you apply the same suggestions every week, turn them into an automation rule, e.g. a rule that excludes offers without sales.

FAQ

Suggestions: frequently asked questions.

Do suggestions change campaigns on their own?

No. A suggestion is a proposal. The change is made only after you click "Apply". If you want similar changes to happen automatically, set up an automation rule.

How often do new suggestions appear?

Every day, for campaigns with suggestions turned on.

What happens when I dismiss a suggestion?

"Dismiss for 7 days" hides the suggestion for a week, and "Dismiss permanently" removes it for good. You can also turn off a whole suggestion type in the campaign settings.

Where can I see applied suggestions?

In the "History" tab of the Suggestions section, together with the date the change was made.

How do I turn off suggestions for one campaign?

In the campaign form, in the "Optimization suggestions" section, choose "Snoozed" (for 7 days) or "Off" (until you turn them back on). You can also turn off only selected suggestion types.
