Brand Value Accelerator (BVAccel) Announces Strategic Partnership with Snapchat
BVAccel joins the Snapchat Partner Program as a Certified Partner in order to provide additional product advertising options to eCommerce merchants seeking growth and scalability.
SAN DIEGO, Oct. 17, 2018 BVAccel, the largest and fastest growing Shopify Plus agency in the world, announced its new strategic partnership with Snapchat, a global multimedia messaging app. This partnership will provide merchants seeking growth and scalability with a new channel and strategy for product advertising that incorporates eCommerce, direct response, and data-driven capabilities.
Snapchat recently announced the addition of three new eCommerce advertising options, including Shoppable Snap ads (or Collection ads), the ability to import product catalogs to automatically create ads, and advanced pixel targeting features. Here is a short summary of each:
- Shoppable Snap Ads: Shoppable, eCommerce-driven ads now allow merchants to feature a collection of products within a single ad. Users can tap each product image to view more details.
- Product Catalogs: Advertisers can now import product catalogs to automatically create ads using existing assets - a win/win when it comes to time and brand consistency.
- Pixel Targeting: Advertisers can now track specific actions consumers take on their website and use this data to create customized audiences for campaigns.
According to a press release by Marketing Land, Snapchat's 188 million global users visit the Snapchat app an average of 20 times a day and create more than 20 Snaps per day. Additionally, in 2017 a Snap Inc.-commissioned study showed Snapchat-users made 850 million shopping trips on Black Friday weekend and bought 20 percent more gifts than the average consumer who doesn't use Snapchat.
"We are very excited for this partnership and the expansion of solutions we are able to provide our clients," said Deepika Patel, Director of Paid Media at BVAccel. "With the new developments Snapchat has made to their ad offerings over the past year, this channel has become a strong contender for advertisers that range from the CPG vertical through to apparel and beauty."
