Paid Social Advertising: Is it Really Worth It?

Paid Social Advertising

There are so many ways to get noticed on social media, but which are the best? When you start using business pages on social media platforms like Facebook, paid social media advertising is one of the most popular ways to get your business noticed quickly and with the greatest amount of reach. Of course, you also have to keep in mind that to make paid social media advertising completely worth it, you have to have engaging content, eye-catching ad designs, and well-thought targeted groups. So, after achieving all of that with your social media pages and ads, will your paid advertising campaign be worth it? It definitely will be, and you’ll be able to see exactly how your ads performed through the insight calculators. From our experience, we know that social media advertising is definitely worth it. Here’s a few of the reasons why:

Brand Awareness
By using paid social media advertising, you can drive traffic to your pages, of course, but what about your brand? A brand is the way that your potential customers remember you and how they view your business’ identity. With paid social advertising, you can control who views your ads, making them available to only those who identify with your brand. This is how you can get the right people to remember your business and continue to follow your brand. Our expert branding team can make sure that every ad tells your business’ story and creates a new following.

Demand Generation
Posting content on social media pages is a good way to start engagement, gain followers, and ignite conversations between your loyal brand followers, however because of new algorithms those posts are only available to a very small percentage of your followers. Therefore, if you are not paying to boost your posts no one is seeing them. Paying to boost your posts brings in more followers to your pages because they’re seen by a good amount of people that don’t already follow your business. Not only that, doing paid product posts can boost demand for the products featured. The more strategic and eye-catching your ads are, the more attention and buzz your product will receive, leading to a higher overall demand for your products.

Attention Acquisition Across Multiple Platforms
The great thing about paid online advertising is that it can be displayed in so many different ways. From Facebook ads on a computer, to Instagram Shop ads, to mobile ads, you can pay to have certain images, captions, and button ads displayed to potential leads on all possible platforms at one time, with one budget. So, instead of paying and managing four different types of advertising, it’s streamlined all into one, making your budgeting easier to manage and tracking easier to follow. It’s the ultimate way to maximize lead generation.

Retargeting Ads to Drive Sales
Monitoring the performance of your ads is essential to maximizing your budget in paid advertising, along with making your paid advertising worth it. Paid advertising retargeting allows you to manipulate each ad you put forward going off of the prior performance of the last ads your business ran. You’ll be able to change your target market, images, and more depending on what works and what doesn’t. At BG Digital Group, our team is well-versed with how to make the best ads, see what works for your target market, and deploy each of them in a strategic way to generate the most leads possible.

Earn Attention Where People are Spending Their Time
Mobile browsing is the number one way that people browse and view content today. People-based marketing, like providing a service or product, is most successful when driven on mobile platforms. Paid social advertising is mainly done on mobile devices, giving people the opportunity to view your ad anywhere, anytime. It’s also easy to act on mobile ads, mostly because it’s done at the touch of a button. It’s important to realize that ads generate the most leads when they’re easy to view and easy to follow to a link. That’s where paid social advertising rises above traditional advertising, whether it be print or media: you know your market will see it and act on it.

Our team handles paid advertising for a variety of businesses, and we know how to generate the most leads from each ad put forward. Paid advertising is worth it, but only if each ad is executed properly with targeting, great images, and engaging captions. From following the hot trends and scheduling advertising deployment to making eye-catching graphics for your ads, BG Digital Group will be there with you every step of the way to create a successful campaign without wasting your budget.
