Each social media platform is used by people with varying demographics, interests and intentions.

What is Social Advertising?
Social advertising is a form of online advertising that utilizes social media platforms to reach your target audiences. It involves creating and promoting ads on social media networks to promote your products, services or ideas. It allows you to reach a new audience based on various targeting methods, such as demographics, interests, education or job titles, locations, hashtags or online behavior.
The most common platforms to advertise on are Facebook and Instagram. However, other social media platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter, TikTok, Snapchat and Pinterests all have users, targeting methods and ad formats unique to their platform and therefore are interesting to include in your online marketing mix. All social media platforms can be used to reach different types of objectives in different phases of the funnel.
Why would you
advertise on
socials?
The main reason you should advertise on social media is because there are a lot of different and extremely specific targeting methods available. Most platforms require users to create an account which includes details that oftentimes can be used in your campaigns to reach your target audience.
The goal of social advertising is to increase brand awareness, drive website traffic and ultimately generate sales or leads. It also allows you to reach your goals more efficiently as you have control over who sees your ads and can track performance of your ads through metrics like reach, impressions, clicks and conversions, and the cost per metric.
Last but not least, advertising on social media also allows for a lot of creativity as there is a wide range of ad formats available: text ads, image ads, video ads, carousel ads, reels, filters and AI content.
