Lincoln Agency Tips: How Platforms Work Together

advertising_agency_Lincoln

Our marketing agency in Lincoln, NE, explores how different ad platforms work together to help your business succeed

Online advertising is a powerful tool. One that helps increase brand awareness, boost sales and generate leads. While success can be found when utilizing just one platform at a time, like Facebook or Google Ads, for example, our advertising agency highly recommends the creation of cross-platform campaigns. Campaigns that use multiple platforms at the same time. 

Creating a Cross-Platform Campaign

The benefit of creating an online advertising campaign that uses multiple platforms like Google, Facebook, and Instagram, is that you are increasing your chances of all of your potential customers learning about your company. Not only that, but you are also increasing the chances that the same people are seeing your ads through different avenues. So maybe someone sees an ad on Facebook, doesn’t convert, but then sees a Google Display ad while browsing. The second time one of your ads pops up, they recognize your company and are more likely to convert. 

Plus, different platforms contain different benefits and are slightly varied in the way your ads look and how you can target. 

As Hootsuite puts it “Different platforms suit different goals. For example, you might be building awareness on Instagram and Twitter, but converting from Facebook ads.”

One of the best parts about partnering with digital advertising experts like us is that we can help you plan and strategize how you’d like a campaign to be set up and which platforms are best suited to the particular messaging you want to push.
