TINFOIL HAT TIME In fall of 2023, Meta has to settle a privacy lawsuit for 3/4 of a billion (with a B) dollars. Few months later, "hey look at our cool new lead gen campaign tech!" The catch? Those cool new campaign types (Advantage+ for lead gen, in this case) encourage little to no targeting. Lol. This is basically Meta saying "you won't sue us again for narrow targeting... watch this, we'll give you none!". But that's the game we as marketers are forced to play. So we must ask... Ok... if traditional niche targeting isn't available, and this fancy new 'machine learning algorithm thingy' is what we have to leverage to get our ads to perform for our organization... how do we do that? Good news, the answer to those questions (and ones you don't even know you have yet) are coming to a computer screen near you on 5/15 at 12pm EST. We're hosting a webinar all about Advantage+ for Lead Gen Advertisers. We'll cover... - Wtf is it? - Why should you care? - How to leverage it? (And when not to) - How to update your tactics and strategies accordingly - And probably share a bad pun or two (sorry) This is the same format/level of detail as the SGE webinar we did a month or two ago - so if you liked that, you'll love this. Wanna join? Just drop a comment and I'll send you an invite. #metaads #advantageplus #leadgen

🎯 Why Are CPA Levels Dropping on Meta Ads? A Mystery or a Masterstroke? Over the past few weeks, recruiters globally have been experiencing a delightful trend: 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗣𝗲𝗿 𝗔𝗰𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (𝗖𝗣𝗔) levels on Meta Ads are 𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆 - by as much as 24.95%. But why? Let's dig into some plausible reasons: 🔑 𝟭. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁-𝗕𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗠𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗺 Black Friday and Cyber Monday pump up ad activity. This high-spend period optimizes ad platforms, creating efficiencies that persist even after the event. 🔑 𝟮. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 “𝗭𝘂𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿-𝘀𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗵” Meta’s frequent algorithm tweaks might have refined ad targeting or delivery, with AI advancements now pairing ads with ideal audiences more effectively. 🔑𝟯. 𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗮’𝘀 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗲 AI-powered tools like Meta's Advantage+ are reshaping ad performance. Brands report a 32% increase in ROAS and a 26% CPA drop, highlighting AI’s power in ad optimization. 🔑 𝟰. 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗔𝗱 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 With a 34% rise in impressions (2022–2023) due to Instagram Search and Reels monetization, Meta offers more affordable ad opportunities across branding and talent attraction efforts. 🔑 𝟱. 𝗦𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗹𝘂𝘀 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 Post-holiday, some advertisers do pull back on spending. For those still active, this reduced competition translates to lower CPAs. As you already understand, now is the best time to launch job ads at scale via Meta while the momentum is still there, and you can do so through us. 👉 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗮 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝗱𝗲𝗺𝗼: https://lnkd.in/ePNBDTUh #AI #recruitment #Meta

Meta to restrict data in Business Tools, impacting ad targeting Meta's recent move to restrict data in its Business Tools is indeed significant. These changes are intended to enhance user privacy, but they could have notable impacts on ad targeting and campaign performance. Here are some key points to consider: Privacy Enhancement: Meta's decision aligns with broader privacy trends and regulations aimed at protecting user data. This is a positive step for user trust and compliance with privacy laws. Ad Targeting Challenges: With restricted access to user data, advertisers may find it more difficult to target ads as precisely as before. This could lead to less effective campaigns and reduced ROI if the data restrictions limit targeting options. Impact on UTMs: Ads with highly targeted UTMs (Urchin Tracking Modules) might be particularly affected. The precision of UTMs helps track the performance of specific ads and campaigns, but with new data restrictions, some of this tracking might be disrupted. Potential Ad Pauses: Advertisers might need to adjust their strategies or even pause ads if the targeting becomes too broad or if performance metrics are significantly impacted. Staying informed about these changes and adapting your strategies accordingly will be crucial for maintaining effective advertising campaigns in the face of these new restrictions. #MetaPrivacy #AdTargeting #DigitalAdvertising #PrivacyUpdate #AdCampaigns #DataRestrictions #MarketingChallenges #AdTech #DataPrivacy #AdvertisingTrends #PrivacyFirst #MetaAds #MarketingStrategy #PrivacyImpact #UTMTracking

The attention on social media is shifting for several key reasons and marketers must adapt to these shifts by embracing innovative strategies, focusing on authenticity, and leveraging new platforms and formats to capture and maintain audience attention. Platform Shifts: Social media platforms are refining algorithms and strategies, impacting marketing approaches. Meta's Changes: Meta has reduced promotion of news content and penalized link posts, influencing publishers to seek alternatives. Reddit's Growth: Reddit's monthly visitors nearly tripled after a partnership with Google, leading to increased referral traffic and interest from publishers. LinkedIn Engagement: LinkedIn is seeing increased engagement, particularly through LinkedIn newsletters, despite efforts to push publishers towards Premium subscriptions. X's Decline: X (formerly Twitter) is experiencing a drop in advertiser spend, leading marketers to shift budgets to other platforms like Snapchat and Reddit. Budget Shifts: Snapchat and Reddit have seen significant increases in SMB ad spend due to X's declining appeal. Emerging Opportunities: As platforms evolve, there are new opportunities on emerging social media apps that may be worth exploring for marketing efforts, especially ahead of major events like the Christmas season. Meta's Ad Tools: Meta's updated Advantage ad tools offer new AI capabilities, but broader expansion is prompting brands to explore other platforms for better reach and results. #socialmedia #technology #socialplatforms #AI #meta #brands #marketing

💥What if Meta introduces a new update that lets advertisers upload a list of peoples who’ve left reviews on their site or elsewhere along with the exact review? Now, imagine being able to tell Meta which specific review each person gave. 🎯Meta then targets that person’s friends or followers on Instagram or Facebook with that review as an ad! Seeing a friend’s review pop up in your feed would bring a whole new level of trust and authority towards the product or service ✨ Thoughts💭 . . #Digitalmarketing #performancemarketing #linkedin #metaads #facebookads

Meta Platforms, formerly Facebook, offers a tool called Meta Ads Library to promote transparency about the ads that run on its networks, which include Messenger, Instagram, and Facebook. Even if the advertisements are not directed towards them, users can still view the ones that are now running on various platforms thanks to this library. It aids in offering perceptions into the kinds of ads that are circulating and can be helpful in understanding advertising trends for researchers, marketers, and even the general public. Regarding "spy ads checking," the term seems to allude to the practice of keeping an eye on rivals' advertisements or the ads that are running across several platforms in order to obtain intelligence. This could entail looking at advertisements by hand, making use of resources like the Meta Ads Library, or utilizing specialist software made for studying advertising competition. Such actions can provide insightful information about the messaging, targeting, and strategy of rival companies. However, when conducting competitive analysis, it's imperative to adhere to ethical and legal constraints. #meta #adslibrary #spy #competitive

I bet you didn't know META has around 10,000 pages of information about you. They have information about everything you do on Facebook and Instagram. Every click and every conversion you make. Every website you click on. They save tons of information in your personal file. Even when you think I don't share anything on my profile, META has a lot of information about your user behavior. For example, they know how long you look at a video. If you look for more than 15 seconds, an advertiser can create a custom audience for this and target you in their ads. Or if you watched the whole video, for example. Here, we can create another custom audience for. These are just a couple of examples of how much your user behavior influences the ads you will see.

Hello to my fellow Ecomm/Marketing friends, I would love to pick your brains about what is currently working for your brands in regard to the #paidads space. What are you focusing the majority of your budget on? Are you finding particular assets/creatives are working better than others? Are there channels you won't touch because Meta is driving most of your customer acquisition and traffic? Do you remove your ads from particular placements on Meta based on your audience? Do you increase your spend when a campaign is converting? I am not after trade secrets (whilst I won't oblige if you wish to divulge 😋) I am more intrigued by what is working and what isn't. For BY BABY we are finding Meta is definitely where our customers notice our brand the most and generate the most actions performed. Pinterest is definitely more of an awareness platform and TikTok we haven't touched 😱 Is this criminal? Would love to hear your thoughts! 💭 #ecommerce #fashion #marketing #retail #digitalmarketing #paidadvertising #meta #facebookads #instagram
