MOBILE MARKETING NEWS


How to effectively take advantage of carousel advertising

Instagram and Facebook are leading a mobile advertising revolution with their carousel advertising platforms, but marketers must entice users by weaving a story that makes consumers want to continue scrolling. 

As consumers are inundated with content on mobile, it is important for advertisers to create content with which users want to interact that is different from a traditional interrupting ad experience, and carousel ads are proving worth it as its showing an average 20 to 30 percent lower cost per installs. Instagram and Facebook have established their place as the front-runners in mobile carousel ads, but marketers must create a unique storytelling experience and continually adjust their content or risk wasting the format’s massive potential.

“If built right, almost every brand with a mobile property could benefit from [carousel ads],” said Gil Regev, chief marketing office at Marfeel. “It is a unique way to tell a story and get users involved.

“That being said, these have only been out for a few months, which could be part of the reason why they are seeing such user interest,” he said. “However, I do believe that the mobile ad industry is set for a change and this is definitely a shot in the right direction, as far as formats.”
