Testing Creative Without Smart Loop? You’re Losing BIG TIME 

Been following the changes in advertising on Meta post iOS 14? 

Then you know that catalog ads are back to being a very important tool in your arsenal. (We’ve talked about it here and here.)

But with Facebook’s current emphasis on broader and stacked audiences, there’s a PROBLEM. 

Your shoppers are now seeing your catalog ads at greater frequencies, with some ads even going up to 15-20.

So what should you do? Is cutting budgets and risking losing warm audiences your only option?

What if we told you that there is a way to keep changing the design of your catalog creative without changing your catalog OR losing your campaign learnings?

Our just-launched  “Smart Loop” feature does precisely this.

Is Shopify’s Audience Network the Game-Changer We've Been Waiting For?

Shopify just announced the launch of its Audiences tool for Facebook and Instagram ads. 

The launch comes after months of Beta testing its ‘Shared Audience Network’ with select client accounts, and is now available to all Shopify Plus merchants.

This is big news for the industry, especially with Facebook struggling to recover lost ground post iOS 14.

Here’s what we know: 

• You can create audiences based on the product(s) you want to sell
• Shopify uses merchant data across its network to aggregate high-intent purchasers based on your selection
• These shoppers are used to create a lookalike for you to run TOF prospecting campaigns
• Shopify helps track the performance of your campaign(s) on its own dashboard

While some accounts we work with have seen good results during Beta testing, others’ results have been underwhelming. 

Have you tried these audiences yet? We’d love to hear about your experience.

#FeaturedAd - LOVEVERY

Brand: Lovevery

Caption: 1 simple tip that all toddler-parents should know 👏
Headline: Discover Intentional Play with The Play Kits

WHY IT WORKS:

A new parent is always looking for the best learning tips and tools for their child. This ad combines both, effectively leveraging FOMO to get parents to click on it. Once in, the short video feels more like you’re hearing from another parent (and professional), keeping you hooked. And the beauty of it all? The Play Kit is barely advertised, but there’s actually no way to miss it! Amazing? We thought so!
