It would be a lie to say that digital advertising is easy—what with the Facebook blackout from March still painfully fresh in the minds of advertisers (Search Engine Journal).
That outage, while brief, ended up bringing many of the Meta platforms to their knees and, if anything, it is a cautious reminder that in the world of advertising, anything can happen.
But not all is doom and gloom. One great way to keep your advertising campaigns on track is by not putting all your eggs in one basket. That’s where multi-channel solutions can come in handy.
You see, platforms like MatchCraft Connect empower folks to reach their target audience through various channels and devices, creating a stronger presence and increasing the likelihood of landing a sale. In this article, we will discuss the value of multi-channel advertising, some best practices, and where solutions like Connect fall into the equation.
If you’re ready, let’s get into it.
Understanding Multi-Channel Advertising
Multi-channel advertising involves reaching potential customers through a diverse range of channels, including search engines, social media platforms, display networks, and more.
But it’s important to mention that managing campaigns across multiple channels presents its own unique set of challenges, from maintaining consistency in messaging and branding to optimizing campaigns for different platforms, devices, and demographics. And don’t get us started on A/B testing, real-time bidding, and budget management.
However, as the saying goes, “If it’s worth doing, it’ll be hard; if it’s not hard, then it’s probably not worth doing,” and that certainly holds true for multi-channel advertising.
The strategy offers numerous benefits over single-channel advertising, including:
- Expanded audience reach
- Increased brand exposure
- Enhanced lead engagement
And that’s just the start. Imagine that same multi-channel digital strategy managed all from one tab. With the combination of a campaign monitoring solution like Connect, managing ads and compiling results no longer has to mean hopping from one analytics tool to another.
