Meta is updating its Brand Rights Protection Manager tool that helps detect product replicas in product listings, with new measures directed at helping brands to protect their IP. Around the same theme, Meta is also launching a new Intellectual Property Reporting Center that consists of a database of IP reports to ensure more efficient tracking of them.

Its search abilities will also be also broader-reaching, hence simplifying the process of discovery. Moreover, Meta has increased the limit of image uploads from 50 to 200 images at once.

TikTok has released a new business promotion feature ‘InteractiveAdd-Ons’ for businesses on its platform. These include stickers, pop-ups, and other visual elements displayed in users’ For You feed ads that prompt potential customers to engage with the ads.

 


According to TikTok, “Viewers who have shared, liked, or commented on a TikTok brand video are 150% more likely to buy a product or service.” Interactive Add-Ons could therefore contribute to a business’ sales by enticing more customers to engage with a brand’s in-feed promotions. The reason behind the efficacy of Interactive Add-Ons is that these features create an immersive environment that is likely to catch users’ undivided attention.

 

The Add-Ons are available in two types: Standard and Premium, each consisting of tools that serve a brand differently depending on its requirements. More specifically, Standard Add-Ons would cater to lower-funnel marketing goals such as driving clicks and conversions. Premium Add-Ons, on the other hand, are meant to help reach upper-funnel goals like brand awareness and community building.

Reddit has announced two new options for advertisers to improve performance of their ad campaigns on the platform. These include Contextual Keyword Targeting and Product Ads.

Until now, advertisers on Reddit were able to rely on targeting options of specific communities, interests, and locations. Adding relevant keywords in campaigns would add more relevance and precision to the campaigns in terms of reach. This could significantly benefit many brands.

Getting deeper into the generative AI shift, Google has developed a variety of AI-based tools for businesses to make the most out of their ad campaigns. These include the ability to generate background visuals for product shots, a feature that summarizes website content, a new Search ad creation process, and more.

 

Businesses will now be able to add AI-generated background visuals to their product shots to enhance the presence of their products. The feature can be accessed within Google’s Product Studio, and can be used to “create unique and tailored product imagery for free.” By simply providing a text prompt to the tool, businesses can generate multiple versions of their product images. Additionally, the feature will also improve the quality of small or low-resolution images without causing one the hassle of reshooting.

 



Another AI tool has been designed to provide businesses summaries of their website pages. Based on the website’s content, the tool will then help enhance ad campaigns by generating “relevant and effective keywords, headlines, descriptions, images and other assets.” These suggestions can be reviewed and edited before being employed.

To enable direct interactions between brands and customers, Meta is expanding its Lead Ads product as well as updating it with new features like conditional questions and Instant Forms overlaid on web. The company is also testing a new ad format ‘Promotional Ads,’ designed to facilitate people in discovering, managing, and applying digital promotions to their purchases.

 

Promotional ads will help people find brand deals, since customers tend to actively seek offers before buying from their favourite brands.

 

The process of applying promotions, according to Meta, seems to be simple. When you see an ad with a special promotion on Facebook, for instance, you will be able to claim the offer by clicking on the ad, which will have the discount automatically applied to your purchase. Moreover, if you leave your purchase incomplete, you will receive a notification to remind you to complete it before the deal expires.
