Hi, so I need to delete the complete row if specific criteria is met, the criteria is as follows,
In a sheet named called "Data"

If column B contains either of "John", "David", "Susan", "Macro", few of them, or all of them, then delete those specific rows leaving the others (Note: If any of these names are not available in the first place then code should not stop.

Then if Column K contains either of "USA", "UK", "DE", "AU", "CA", few of them, or all of them then again delete the full rows

Really appreciate the help!

Thank you.

Since you did not provide any sample data to test, here is some air code (untested) for you to try out.

VBA Code: 
Option Explicit

Sub AnQuala()
Dim lr As Long, i As Long
lr = Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = lr To 1 Step -1
If Range("B" & i) = "John" Or Range("B" & i) = "David" Or Range("B" & i) = "Susan" Or Range("B" & i) = "Macro" Then
Range("B" & i).EntireRow.Delete
End If
Next i
lr = Range("K" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = lr To 1 Step -1
If Range("K" & i) = "USA" Or Range("K" & i) = "UK" Or Range("K" & i) = "DE" Or Range("K" & i) = "AU" Or Range("K" & i) = "CA" Then
Range("K" & i).EntireRow.Delete
End If
MsgBox "completed"
End Sub

Perfect, I just need to add sheet name as well as 'Sponsored Products' because I will make this code a part of the bigger code having multiple sheets, thanks!

Another option.

VBA Code: 
Option Explicit
Sub AnQuala_Array()
    Dim lr As Long, lc As Long, i As Long
    Dim a, b
    lr = Cells.Find("*", , xlFormulas, , 1, 2).Row
    lc = Cells.Find("*", , xlFormulas, , 2, 2).Column + 1

    a = Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(lr, lc))
    ReDim b(1 To UBound(a), 1 To 1)

    For i = 1 To UBound(a)
        If a(i, 2) Like "*John*" Or _
        a(i, 2) Like "*David*" Or _
        a(i, 2) Like "*Susan*" Or _
        a(i, 2) Like "*Macro*" Or _
        a(i, 11) Like "*USA*" Or _
        a(i, 11) Like "*UK*" Or _
        a(i, 11) Like "*DE*" Or _
        a(i, 11) Like "*AU*" Or _
        a(i, 11) Like "*CA*" Then b(i, 1) = 1
    Next i

    Cells(2, lc).Resize(UBound(a)) = b
    i = WorksheetFunction.Sum(Columns(lc))

    Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(lr, lc)).Sort Key1:=Cells(2, lc), order1:=1, Header:=2
    If i > 0 Then Cells(2, lc).Resize(i).EntireRow.Delete

Do you mean like this?

VBA Code: 
Option Explicit
Sub AnQuala_Array()
    Dim lr As Long, lc As Long, i As Long
    Dim a, b
    Dim ws As Worksheet: Set ws = Worksheets("Sponsored Products")
    lr = ws.Cells.Find("*", , xlFormulas, , 1, 2).Row
    lc = ws.Cells.Find("*", , xlFormulas, , 2, 2).Column + 1

    a = Range(ws.Cells(2, 1), ws.Cells(lr, lc))
    ReDim b(1 To UBound(a), 1 To 1)

    For i = 1 To UBound(a)
        If a(i, 2) Like "*John*" Or _
        a(i, 2) Like "*David*" Or _
        a(i, 2) Like "*Susan*" Or _
        a(i, 2) Like "*Macro*" Or _
        a(i, 11) Like "*USA*" Or _
        a(i, 11) Like "*UK*" Or _
        a(i, 11) Like "*DE*" Or _
        a(i, 11) Like "*AU*" Or _
        a(i, 11) Like "*CA*" Then b(i, 1) = 1
    Next i

    ws.Cells(2, lc).Resize(UBound(a)) = b
    i = WorksheetFunction.Sum(ws.Columns(lc))

    Range(ws.Cells(2, 1), ws.Cells(lr, lc)).Sort Key1:=ws.Cells(2, lc), order1:=1, Header:=2
    If i > 0 Then ws.Cells(2, lc).Resize(i).EntireRow.Delete

Yes it's working, is it possible to do other way around, for example column if column B does NOT have "Keyword" or "Product Targeting" or column K doesn't have "enabled" then delete the entire row, I think that will be more efficient.

Also can you show if I add 2 more sheet names with their set of values, where do I add that, do I copy the full code and then replace the values or within this code?

Thank you.
