Based on statistics alone, it indicates that Facebook is a definite must-have for marketers or business owners to include in their toolkit one of their main social media platforms based on its large audience number and multipurpose features, and it’s a powerful tool to get connected with your audience.

Ad types available and its use:

Facebook offers many ad types for marketers and business owners like you to advertise to your targeted audience. Let’s take a sneak peek at the choices available:

i. Image Ads

These are one of the simplest ones and easy to use type of ads. All you need is a strong ad copy that’s informative and concise. Avoid wordiness or Facebook’s algorithms may not work as great too.

ii. Video Ads

These are similar to image ads, except it’s a video. Facebook recommends your video to be summarized in 15 seconds. The audience today have short attention so make your brand, product, and message short, snappy, and catchy in 15 seconds to get your audience’s attention.

iii. Slideshow Ads

This is a good alternative to video ads and allows you to include multiple images in one and add effects and music to it.

iv. Carousel Ads

These ads are the best when you want to showcase all your products and allows you to share up to 10 images and videos to send your message across to your audience.

Marketers or B2B business owners can use this type of ad to hyper-target their audience locally to target a group with a specific need (e.g. Food delivery apps). It can also go beyond borders to promote your company’s effort or if you want to host a charitable cause, and the list of ideas goes on.

Tip: Use a Carousel ad if you have under 10 products. Anything beyond 10, you should consider the Dynamic Ad type.

v. Collection Ads

Collection ads go a long way when telling your brand story to a consumer. Marketers or business owners can highlight their products and services impactfully with good content and images.

Once the people you’re targeting on Facebook tap on the ad, it will link them directly to a fast-loading landing page, allowing your audience to browse through up to 50 products, from there people are able to purchase a product that will link to a retailer’s site. The layout of a collection ad comprises of a video on the top and 4 recommended products below, usually appearing on the Facebook newsfeed.

According to statistics from Facebook, brands like Adidas, Tommy Hilfiger, Sport Chek, and Michael Kors are among the top brands that have tested this ad format and the brand Sport Chek ran a campaign with the use of GIFs during the holidays,  the retailers witnessed doubled conversions and 28% increase in online sales.

In addition, Adidas claimed a 1.8X decrease in cost-per-conversion with one of their campaigns where they posted a hoodie and similar products.

It seems like this ad format is a great way to showcase your products and to drive sales for marketers and apply them to many businesses.

vi. Instant Experience

Previously known as Canvas Ads, Instant Experience is fully optimized for mobile, providing an immersive experience for the targeted audience with beautiful images with the option to zoom in on panoramic images and to even tilt the screen.

This ad format gives marketers, advertisers, and business owners the opportunity to attract their target audience with a unique viewing experience.

Advertising on mobile platforms has always been a challenge for businesses due to the loading time and slow response, but Facebook never fails to disappoint with their cutting-edge technology by creating Instant Experience Ads, apparently 10X faster than other mobile platforms in loading speed.

Instant Experience Ads would be an ideal platform to create a successful mobile marketing campaign, reaching out to a majority of people on their phones.

vii. Lead Generation Ads

If your business depends on generating leads, then this ad is for you. A lead ad is basically a lead form that collects the information you require in order to subscribe or to receive email newsletters from your brand or service. Usually, your audience would be required to specify general information (You can choose to customize or use Facebook’s template) such as full name, email, etc.

It’s a good way to grow your database and fill that email list with interested subscribers and their information.

Tip: Avoid asking for too much information as it will make the audience uncomfortable to pursue sharing further.

viii. Dynamic Ads

Dynamic ads are designed to help advertisers promote multiple products or an entire catalog across all devices the consumers use. These ads are able to target certain products to a specific target audience.

These ads empower marketers to retarget and track down potential customers that have previously visited added to an online shopping cart on your website.

Brief comparison among these channels

Facebook

Facebook is mainly catered to a B2C audience and is the leading social network worldwide where a majority of individuals and businesses in the world have an account.

Instagram

The world’s leading media sharing platform is highly interactive and is fully dedicated to mobile user experience, especially quality images, not like Facebook that relies on text and image or Twitter that is text-dependent.  Instagram’s lifestyle-related site makes it B2C friendly. 

LinkedIn

The biggest social network among businesses and busy professionals. Provides a solid base for the B2B market.

YouTube

The leading video sharing platform worldwide and caters to B2B/B2C markets independent artists, entrepreneurs, SMEs, agencies, lifestyle brands, education, and covers all aspects of human interests, and is more diverse than IGTV which is dominated by influencers in the cosmetics/beauty industry.

Snapchat

Snapchat can cater to both B2B and B2C markets, but it is not ideal for businesses such as banking, construction, etc. As most of its target audience are teenagers. Its story feature makes it similar to Instagram for the younger market.

TikTok

TikTok is a fully integrated media sharing platform that provides music, effects, catered to pure entertainment. The target audience is similar to Snapchat, which are teenagers. They offer a B2C model which is an opportunity for marketers to advertise to young adults included. For example, the finance industry would not be suitable on this channel. 

Twitter

Twitter applies to all markets, B2B and B2C, and is the main channel to get news sources and trending content. But is not an integrated media sharing platform like Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok.

.

Conclusion

To sum it all up, there are plenty of social media platforms waiting for marketers and business owners to hop on, but at the end of the day, what matters is a solid social media strategy and how well they understand their audiences to succeed. There is no shortcut when you’re on the digital platforms and the only shortcut available is once you’ve taken time to know your audience and their desires.

Marketers and business owners must understand that it takes effort to know your audience well before targeting them, or else you’re just shooting blanks and wasting your time and investment.

We have learned that businesses, even with really good ads might not do well if it’s targeting the wrong market or it’s on the wrong platform. It can be a challenge for brands to be spread across all platforms just to keep up. They shouldn’t have to.
