What’s new?
q Instagram carousel ads with “Shop Now”, “Learn More” & “Sign Up” buttons that
link outside the app.
q Targeted based on demographics: age, gender & interests pulled from Facebook.
q Sophisticated API for automated managing, tracking & measuring of Instagram
ads.
Why should a brand use Instagram ads?
q Reach highly engaged younger audiences with content that allows deeper
engagement off the Instagram platform.
q Instagram has run 475 campaigns to-date with ad recall 2.9x higher than Nielsen
Brand Effect’s norms for online advertising. Brands that trialed Instagram ads
included The Gap, Disney, Electronic Arts & Taco Bell.
q Allows full integration of the channel with the brand's social CRM strategy, moving
Instagram from an awareness only touchpoint to the end of the purchase funnel.
q Demonstrate the value of a brand's Instagram presence beyond engagement on
the platform, through number of clicks (consideration) & cost per conversion.
q Personalization of organic content based on advanced analytics from ads which
will show higher consideration from the Target Audience through A/B testing.
How should brands use Instagram ads?
q Focus on quality content that integrates with Instagram experience & drives one of
these actions: Shop Now, Book Now, Download, Learn More & Sign Up.
q Ask your marketing software provider when Instagram ad integration will be
available. Salesforce & Nanigans are already in the works!
