Snapchat, a must-have for video advertisers

Over 160 million people use Snapchat every day to Snap with family, watch Stories from friends, see events from around the world, and explore expertly-curated content from top publishers. Snap ads are an up to 10-second, verticaland full-screen video, frequently played with sound on, which can also include the option to swipe up into an attachment.

Ads on Snapchat come in many shapes and sizes to fit marketers’ goals: video view, mobile app-Install, awareness, and web traffic.

Using a Snapchat Partner like MakeMeReach is a way for advertisers to launch campaigns with any size budget, and also to manage the ads directly from a partner platform. Advertisers will be able to create, optimize and analyze their Snap ads campaigns on their own with the MakeMeReach platform.

MakeMeReach conducted a survey on the perception of Snapchat ads: results are very promising for advertisers!

To help its customers understand why and how Snapchat ads are new opportunities for them, MakeMeReach worked with IFOP (The Institut français d’opinion publique – a leading international polling and market research firm), to ask users about their habits and perception of ads on Snapchat.

Among other findings, this survey reveals that 55% of Snapchat users remember seeing an ad on Snapchat. This percentage goes up for Millennials as 74% of 18-24 years oldscan recall ads on Snapchat. Advertisers who know how hard it is to get ad recall will definitely be impressed by these high metrics, especially for the Millennial target whose attention is particularly hard to catch.

A very large majority (61%) likes watching ads on Snapchat. 30% even watch the ads until the end, which is higher than the average on other networks

The positive perception of Snapchat ads is definitely due to the ad format itself: users have the ability to swipe the ad, and thus, they consider the Snapchat ad less intrusive than other ad formats.
69% think that having the choice to watch the ad makes the Snapchat ad more appealing than other social network’ ads. That’s a real asset for Snapchat!

Finally, the survey showed a huge impact of Snapchat ads on purchase intention: 71% of users say that an ad on Snapchat can influence their desire to buy the product.
