Dynamic Product Ads for Snapchat
Updated
Leverage dynamic ads to show relevant content to your prospects based on their searches on your website or app.
Enablement Note: The use of this feature requires that Sprinklr Marketing (Ads) be enabled in your environment. To learn more about Sprinklr Marketing (Ads), please work with your Success Manager.
Refreshing creatives manually for your Product Ads can be manually tedious and challenging as these Ads may or may not be relevant to your target audience. Sprinklr allows you to compose Dynamic Product Ads (DPA) that automatically show the right products to people who have expressed interest on your website, in your app, or elsewhere on the Internet. All you need to do is simply link your product catalog and set up your campaign once, and it will continue working for you as long as you want – finding the correct people for each product.
This article will guide you through the following workflows:
Note:
Snapchat Collaborative Ads are the same as regular Dynamic Product Ads. The ad type for creating Collaborative Ads is DPA, and there is no difference in the ad creation process. The only difference is that a retailer can share a segment of the catalog with the client.
Once the catalog is shared by the retailer, it will automatically be visible to the client’s Business Manager, and you should be able to import it as a normal catalog and create DPA using this segment.
