WHY ADVERTISING ON SNAPCHAT

Did you know there are over 500 predefined Snapchat advertising targeting options?

The Snapchat app is used by more than 6 million Australian users and has more of the 13-to-24-year-old demographic than either Facebook or Instagram.

Snapchat is perfect for marketers or business owners targeting mobile youth audiences: Gen Z and the youngest Millennials.

When creating your Snapchat Advertising campaigns, you’ll have the option to choose Snapchat predefined audiences to help you reach specific Snapchatters.

Snapchat Predefined audiences have been built and packaged using Snapchat and third-party data, allowing you to reach people based on their online and real-world interests and behaviours. You can select several different segments within the Viewers, Visitors, Shoppers, and Snap Lifestyle Categories.

Note: Targeting by Zip Code (postcode), Viewer, Visitor, and Shopper Audiences are only supported for U.S.A. advertisers at the moment.

Before launching your Snapchat advertising campaign, it is a great idea to have all the Snapchat predefined audiences list printed so you can discuss and collaborate with your team and define the best Snapchat audiences mix selection for your next advertising campaign.

ABOUT SNAPCHAT ADVERTISING TARGETING OPTIONS

Snapchat audience targeting options are available in the “Audience” section of ad set creation which allows you to refine the group of people Snapchat will show your ads to. You can do this with additional demographic information, interests and behaviours.

These detailed targeting options may be based on:

What Snapchat users share
Apps they use
Ads they click
Pages they engage with
Activities people engage in on and off Snapchat related to things like their device usage, purchase behaviours or intents and travel preferences
Demographics like age, gender and location
The mobile device they use and the speed of their network connection

HOW TO USE THE PREDEFINED SNAPCHAT ADVERTISING TARGETING OPTIONS

The Snapchat Targeting sections of ad set creation offers 2 general actions:

Include people
Exclude people

Once you select at least one option for one of these, you will be able to narrow down your Snapchat Advertising Audience.

If you add an option to that field, you’ll be able to narrow it down further.

If you add criteria to the “Include people” or “Exclude people” fields, your audience will include or exclude people who meet at least one of the criterion

Important: When narrowing your audience, be careful to not make it too specific. Doing so can lead to an audience that’s too small to be effective. Keep in mind that within any Snapchat target audience you create, they automatically try to find the people likely to get you the result you told Snapchat to optimize for in ad set creation. Because of this, you don’t have to worry about refining too much.

The list we needed

It was great to finally find a complete list of all targeting options. Now we can easily review them and keep track of the ones generating the highest ROI.

SNAPCHAT CUSTOM AUDIENCES

The ‘Custom Audiences’ view in Snapchat Ad Manager allows you to reach specific Snapchat users based on customer data you’ve gathered. You can create two types:

Snap Audience Match (SAM) Audiences are built directly from your customer lists of emails or device IDs. With SAM Audiences you’ll be able to easily upload your customer lists, get audience insights (such as the number of matched Snapchat users), edit and delete audiences, and create lookalikes from your uploaded data. Please go here for more information on how to create a SAM Audience.
Lookalike Audiences consist of Snapchatters who are likely to be interested in your business because they’re similar to people who already are. You will only be able to create a Lookalike Audience if you have already uploaded a SAM Audience. With a Lookalike Audience, you’ll be able to choose the audience size and select a country for the lookalike. At this time, these include the US, Canada, the UK, and Australia. Please go here for more information on how to create a Lookalike Audience.

Please Note: When you select a custom audience during the ‘ad set’ portion of creating your campaign, you may notice that the audience meter defaults to less than 1000. This will display, regardless of your custom audiences’ actual size, due to data and privacy reasons. You can always see the size of your custom audience, by going to the ‘Custom Audiences’ view in Ad Manager and selecting the audience you’d like to view.

TOP TIPS FOR YOUR FIRST SNAPCHAT AD CAMPAIGN

Always use target cost bidding at your desired C0st per Acquisition (CPA) goal.
Broad audiences often perform the best
Run 3-4 ads per ad set
Test up to 5 different Snapchat audiences at a time
The Snapchat pixel needs a minimum of 50 purchases to start optimising for the purchase goal
Initially, you will only be able to optimise for “swipe up” bidding, later on (as you get conversions) you will be able to optimise for activities such as “View content”, “Add to cart” and ultimately “Purchases”
Get your ad creative to look very native almost as if it is a user story. Do not make it look like an ad.
Keep the ad short and sweet: around 6-10 seconds.
Always feature “Swipe up” as the CTA on the ad creative.
Always have captions on your Snapchat ad
Your Snapchat ad should get to the point quickly
Test Videos, Stills, Collections and Discover ads.
Use native-looking text overlays.
Snapchat is great for promoting offers and discounts. As it is a younger demographic, Snapchatters are price-sensitive. Keep that in mind.
