AdColony, the globally leading gaming, and esports mobile marketing company tossed its newest product – Social Ads. The brand permits advertisers across the Asia-Pacific region to take standing campaigns that run on social media, such as image, carousel, and video posts, and flawlessly place them within the smartphone gaming ecosystem.
The resolution is premeditated with two aims in mind: bid a superior spread into Asia-Pacific’s extensive and varied mobile audience, while abating brand security risks of marketing on user-generated content, which is existing within the social media environment. 92% of customers trust endorsements from influencers over an ad, and 71% of pushers plan to comprise influencer promotion in their campaigns this year, according to MuseFind. AdColony’s newest product provides brands the opening to improve their impact by merging the spread of influencers for their social media campaigns and ranging this reach to gamers. With 2.7 billion smartphone gamers internationally and 1.2 billion in Asia-Pacific alone, gaming reaches a massive mobile spectator in this fragmented area.
Mitchell Vaz, Senior Director Strategy of AdColony, said that they’re in an era where advertisers cannot segmentize who is a social media handler and who isn’t any longer, basically because everybody is a social media user of some sort. Gaming too offers this type of mass reach, reaching from hyper-casual gamers to hard-core esports fans. Advertisers that habitually participate on social media are at a drawback when trying to get ‘social media dark audiences’ as well as individuals with ad blockers making up half of all internet handlers. Additionally, in contrast to gaming, social media poses a sophisticated threat to brand security due to the availability of user-generated content. At an equal time, much of users’ information is kept to the specific social media podium. Gaming still provides a brand-safe stage for advertisers to influence these clients. The game ecosystem offers publicists bigger visions into players’ behavioural info and prioritises the visibility of the ads.
Mitchell stated, as gamers themselves, they entirely recognize the gaming knowledge. AdColony’s latest solution impeccably mixes social media ads into the gameplay, ensuing in an improved practice for the player. At a similar time, they’re also on the side of advertisers. This has directed to the conception of this product that amplifies the reach and visibility of the ads, providing advertisers a keener method to measure their brand drives while recording tall levels of visit between spectators who are deep in the game. Following the unveiling of this product, AdColony is now pitching up to introduce a second phase, which fetches shop aptitude into these gaming ad items.
