To many it might seem like an unnecessary expense, but the truth is, if you want your product or service to be used, people need to know about it. And not just know about it; it needs to be front-of-mind for consumers all the time. It is why a company like Coca-Cola has been so successful, because the reality is that you can go almost anywhere in the world and when it comes time to buy a drink you will end up at a store that has their famous logo outside. But the world of advertising has changed a lot in recent times with online advertising taking an increasingly large share of advertising budget from more traditional mediums like print, radio and television. Here is why that is happening and why you should look to change where you are spending.<\/p>\n<h3>Real value<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blog.google\/products\/ads\/drive-better-results-insiders-look-latest-google-ads-innovations\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/google-ads-marketing-tips.gif\" alt=\"google-ads-marketing-tips\" width=\"400\" height=\"774\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-33684 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 400px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 400\/774;\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<em>Drive better results: An insider&#8217;s look at the latest Google Ads innovations<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Digital allows you to target an audience and to get the right audience at the right price points. It also allows you to run campaigns that are click-based, conversion-based or impression based. So, there are lots of options to ensure that you get what you want. Tools like <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wmegroup.com.au\/google-adwords\/\"><b>Google ads<\/b><\/a> which are service through a platform called Google DFP can also ensure that no one consumer sees the same advert too often, that ads are targeted based on location or by time of day. So many options. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Buying audience<\/h3>\n<p>Let\u2019s say that you are selling women\u2019s hygiene products. This is a specific audience that you are advertising to, and you want to make sure that you are reaching it. Traditionally you might have bought space in a women\u2019s magazine or during a television show that is watched by a primarily female audience. But the truth is that you would have been hitting a lot of men as well, or females who are either too old or too young to make use of your products. Digital is much smarter than this and most platforms will have information about their users. This is anonymous, but it still knows who you are and what you drive and how old you are and your gender, sexual preference and so much more. Digital allows you to reach your targeted audience no matter where they are browsing on line \u2013 be it niche blog sites or traditionally male dominated sites. \u00a0You can always look for help from <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wmegroup.com.au\/melbourne\/\"><b>SEO agency Melbourne<\/b><\/a>, if you are in Melbourne, for example,<\/p>\n<h3>Reporting<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.socialmediaexaminer.com\/how-to-improve-facebook-ads-results\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/facebook-ads-improve-results-how-to-600.png\" alt=\"facebook-ads-improve-results-how-to-600\" width=\"600\" height=\"315\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-33682 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/315;\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<em>How to Improve Your Facebook Ads Results<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Unlike more traditional methods of advertising, everything that happens online is trackable.
