Reading Time: 4 minutes

In the 2020’s, digital advertising has skyrocketed.

Have you ever seen what you thought was just another post on your Facebook feed and clicked on the image, only to be taken to another website? Or maybe you have scrolled on TikTok for too long and come across a sponsored advertisement?

These are digital ads, and when delivered correctly, they can be a powerful tool for your business.

Digital advertising isn’t easy – if you’re going to dive into it, make sure you know what you are doing otherwise you could be wasting your hard-earned money. If you don’t, look to a digital marketing expert for support.

What is digital advertising?

Digital ads are promotional messages that pop up when you’re browsing websites, using search engines, or scrolling through social media.

They can be in the form of banners, videos, posts, messages, search ads and so much more. Multiple social media platforms support digital advertising, including Meta, Google, TikTok, Pinterest, YouTube and other social or community based platforms.

Advertising on these platforms gives businesses a direct line of contact with their target audience.

The primary benefit of digital advertising is they are highly targeted medium. When building your ads, you can specify a target audience based on their demographics, behaviours, interests or even their interactions with your business.

Instead of throwing a net out and hoping to catch some fish, you’re choosing the right sea, the right net, the right bait, the right fish, and therefore getting the right results for your brand.

 

How to harness digital advertising for my business?

So how do you do it? Research and staying up-to-date with the platform’s changes and evolution is vital. Testing, tweaking, and revising is also key. If that sounds like too much to handle, take the stress away by trusting an expert (book a meeting to get started).

If you can jump into the platform and use it effectively, leveraging digital advertising really comes down to creating marketing assets that align with your target audience’s needs and wants.

As a base, we always recommend testing your content using one of the parameters – creative, audience, keyword, etc. This is a crucial part of the process which allows you to run trial run your ads to work out all the sticky information.

Keep in mind that what works for one business may not work for another, which is why the testing phase of your ads is essential.

From there, make sure you are learning, reviewing and tweaking your ads so you are constantly improving your offering. This is an ongoing need as behaviours change and the needs of your audience evolve.

To make your content catchy, try using hooks, bullet points and experiment with your graphic creative. Here are some of our favourite’s examples of Meta Ads that convert:
