5 Tips To Create Better Ads

60% of your campaign's success is dependent on the strength of your message and the execution of your creative. Here is what you need to know to build a quality ad.

AdBean set out to help our customers build better ads. We wanted to give you the ability to build well-designed interactive display ads that will enable you to advance your message, business, products or brand. Here are 5 simple tips to make sure your ads have a chance to be noticed:

• 1. Use a concise message against a background that will make the ad pop off the screen and be noticed above the content on the page.


• 2. Be consistent with your brand and style. The ads need to match the landing pages or web site so the users make the connection between your offer and where you direct them with the click through.


• 3. Couple your message with a call to action like "Click Now” "Buy Now” or “Schedule Your Appointment”.


• 4. Use animation to get a reader’s attention. It does not have to be obnoxious, but even subtle animation is enough to get the reader’s attention and make an impression with your brand.


• 5. Make your message timely. Business changes fast, and your offers and messages need to respond. Changing and editing static image ads creates a heavy production cost for executing a campaign. Dynamic, data-driven ads gives you real-time control of your messages that you display in ads without making it difficult.

AdBean has found broad agreement among behavioral advertising specialists that link the quality of creative to the success of behavioral targeted campaigns. AdBean broadly divides campaign success like the experts do: audience targeting is responsible for 40 percent of the success, offer selection is responsible for 40 percent of the success, and "messaging and creative execution" deals with the critical final 20 percent.

Dynamic display provides the ability to deliver customized, highly relevant display ads that can change almost automatically with minimal creative investment required. Based on rules set by the advertiser, dynamically generated ads can be cost-effectively optimized on the fly to ensure that only the most effective creative is served to meet the objectives of a campaign -- without the restraints of workflow. Success in display advertising is about matching the intent of the user with the specific creative ad and then catering to that intent.  These parameters can change in mid-campaign, and only dynamic display can keep up.

Because AdBean makes it easy to create rich, dynamic data driven ads without any programming skills or prior online advertising experience, we help advertisers provide a relevant offer or targeted set of offers that maximizes the value of an ad buy and helps increase the ROI on a campaign.
