It's important to define what success looks like to your business. Are you looking to generate leads, increase website traffic, boost sales, or promote a product or service? The goal will determine what platform to use, along with your ad copy and visuals.

At Genie Crawl, we recommend focusing on one or two platforms that align with your audience, stretching your money further.
It's imperative that your advert grabs your audiences attention, even if you have your targeting down perfectly. Your visuals and copy should communicate value. We recommend focusing on benefits rather than features.
It's important you don't throw your entire advertising budget at one campaign. We recommend starting small, testing different variations of your advert to identify the best performer before your advert goes live.
A/B testing can help you identify which headlines, images, and targeting options offer the best end results. With the winning variation you can slowly start scaling your ad up. This way you focus on your budget going into adverts that convert.
The benefit of paid ads is you can measure it in real time. Tracking click through rates (CTRs), conversion, and return on ad spend (ROAS), are all valuable metrics that can help you identify how your ad is performing. It offers the opportunity to revisit underperfoming adverts, reallocating your budget accordingly, to ensure you achieve real results.
