Meta’s Advantage+ Campaigns Are Here To Stay

We wrote about how to set up Facebook’s Advantage+ shopping campaigns.

It’s been a month since the campaigns were launched, and though the noise around them has died down a bit, most advertisers are now using these as part of their campaign set.

This very helpful blog post by Foxwell Digital sums up the early learnings on these campaigns and argues why these campaigns should be part of your mix for BFCM.

TL;DR: One key point on which these campaigns stand out is how quickly they show results when launched with new creatives or offers. A quicker optimization window may make a difference during BFCM promotions in 2022. (Or you could use Socioh's Smart Switch!)

And here’s a quick roundup of the best practices for setting them up:

1. Use at least 10 creatives per campaign.

2. These campaigns perform best if they get out of the learning phase.

3. Use a mix of different types of creatives. BONUS: Using a catalog creative in the mix is bringing our users amazing results.

4. Time-saving campaigns, but run them along with your tested and optimized. campaigns. These are not a substitute for your tested audiences and campaigns.

5. You can adjust the attribution window from 7dc/1dv down to 1dc like with existing campaigns.

What are your thoughts? Have you tested Meta’s Advantage+ Shopping Campaigns yet?

#FeaturedAd - BKR

Brand: BKRCategory: Beauty and Personal CareFormat: Video

WHY IT WORKS:

One of the most effective uses of social proof as a hook.

Most of the work is already done with the text on the opening slide “The TikTok viral Doe Sip Kits”. Short, clean, and simple, the ad centers on virality as proof of its utility.

All of 17 seconds, the short video then showcases the product. The pastel colors of the sipper and the product reviews that follow add context and clinch the deal for anyone on the fence, but the utility of the product is already established. The video ends with the brand logo and tagline. No hard sell is required!

#BrandedCatalog Spotlight - Boutique 1861

Brand: Boutique 1861Category: Apparel Template type: Frame with cutout price and dynamic discounts

WHY IT WORKS:

• Beautiful use of colors and graphics to showcase the store’s fall collection.

• Cutout prices and exact discount % values are dynamically mapped for each product.

• Inventory is discreetly mapped below prices to create FOMO while keeping the focus on the product.

• The brand logo and product names increase recall and add trust.
