I’ve been hearing a lot about Dynamic Ads. How can we use them for Black Friday & beyond?

Use Dynamic Ads to:

1. Remind site visitors of what they’ve viewed and added to cart

2. Cross-sell to past purchasers with similar items they’ve bought

3. Upsell opportunities to potential purchasers for higher AOV

I’ve been hearing a lot about Dynamic Ads. How can we use them for Black Friday & beyond?

Remind people what they’ve

already seen and added to

cart.

For example: Facebook will

retarget people with the exact

products they viewed or

added to cart. If they’ve

viewed less than 10 products,

Facebook will add in relevant

products.

I’ve been hearing a lot about Dynamic Ads. How can we use them for Black Friday & beyond?

Facebook now makes it

easy to cross-sell

products based on

purchase behavior.

For example: A protein

supplements company

can re-market a new

protein powder flavor to

past purchasers of

protein powder.

I’ve been hearing a lot about Dynamic Ads. How can we use them for Black Friday & beyond?

Through the upsell functionality, you

can increase average order value by

showing higher end products to site

visitors.

For example: A visitor views hats on an

apparel company’s website. Dynamic

ads can retarget the visitor with the

company’s hero products, which are

popular and have higher order value.
