Paid Social Advertising

Paid social advertising on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok serves dual purposes for marketplace sellers: building brand awareness with audiences who haven't yet discovered you, and driving qualified traffic to your Amazon, Walmart, or DTC Shopify store. While retail media captures high-intent shoppers already on marketplaces, paid social reaches customers earlier in their journey - when they're scrolling social feeds, researching products, or discovering new brands through influencer content.

The key challenge with paid social for marketplace sellers is attribution. Facebook and TikTok can't natively track Amazon conversions, making it difficult to prove ROI. We solve this through multi-touch attribution modeling using our iDerive platform, correlating social ad spend with marketplace sales lift, branded search increases, and new-to-brand customer acquisition. This holistic view enables confident investment in upper-funnel social advertising.

Our paid social strategies integrate seamlessly with marketplace operations. We develop creative assets that align with Amazon product listings, coordinate promotional messaging across channels, retarget Amazon Store visitors with Facebook ads, and drive TikTok audiences to TikTok Shop for seamless social commerce. For brands with Shopify DTC sites, we build sophisticated multi-touch journeys that introduce customers via social, nurture through email, and convert across marketplace and DTC channels.
