3 Common Challenges in Ad Campaign Management

In the fast-paced world of digital advertising, managing campaigns efficiently and effectively can be a daunting task. Advertisers and agencies often face a myriad of challenges that can hinder the success of their campaigns. From making real-time updates to monitoring performance metrics, the complexity of managing digital ad campaigns can be overwhelming. In a 2023 study, Frequence found that 78% of advertising professionals cited campaign management challenges as the most difficult part of their job. Fortunately, Frequence’s advertising automation platform is designed to address these challenges head-on, streamlining the process and ensuring optimal campaign performance. Let’s take a look at three common challenges in digital ad campaign management and how Frequence’s platform provides solutions to overcome them.

The Challenge: Real-Time Campaign Updates

One of the most significant challenges in digital ad campaign management is the ability to make real-time updates. Traditional systems often require users to go through multiple layers of approval and support, slowing down the process and potentially missing critical opportunities.

Frequence’s CampaignHub campaign edit feature enables users to make campaign-level updates in real time, without needing any additional outside assistance. Whether it’s adjusting targeting parameters, modifying creative assets, or changing budget allocations, Campaign Edit empowers users to react swiftly to market changes and optimize their campaigns on the fly.

This real-time capability not only enhances the agility of campaign management but also reduces the dependency on external support, allowing users to maintain full control over their campaigns. By providing the flexibility to make immediate adjustments, Frequence ensures that campaigns are always aligned with the campaign goals, leading to better results and higher ROI.

The Challenge: Monitoring Campaign Performance

Keeping track of campaign performance across various metrics is another major challenge for advertising professionals. With numerous data points to consider, it can be difficult to gain a comprehensive understanding of how a campaign is performing and where improvements are needed.

Frequence addresses this challenge by providing users with easy access to real-time data across all metrics, enabling them to evaluate campaign performance in-depth and from every angle. The platform’s intuitive dashboard displays key performance indicators (KPIs) such as impressions, clicks, view-throughs, visits, hovers, video plays, and engagements.

Additionally, Frequence’s engagement tracking feature offers a detailed view of a campaign’s performance. With Frequence's advanced capabilities, users can gain insights into website attribution, household reach and frequency, and offline visits. In addition to impressions and clicks, Frequence shows how many users visited the conversion page without clicking (view-throughs), and the total number of visits (clicks + view-throughs). Other valuable metrics include hovers (when the mouse pauses over the ad on desktop devices) and video plays.

By providing a comprehensive and detailed view of campaign performance, Frequence enables users to identify trends, spot issues early, and make data-driven decisions to optimize their campaigns. The platform’s real-time data access ensures that users are always working with the most current information, leading to more effective and efficient campaign management.

The Challenge: Pacing and Budget Management

Effective pacing and budget management are critical to the success of any digital ad campaign. Ad management teams need to ensure that their campaigns are pacing correctly to avoid overspending or underspending, which can impact the overall effectiveness of the campaign.

Frequence simplifies pacing and budget management with its intuitive pacing indicator and budget monitoring tools. Users can quickly monitor the pacing of their campaigns by reviewing the pacing indicator, which provides a clear visual representation of how the campaign is progressing relative to the allocated budget and timeline.

Furthermore, Frequence users can observe the status of their campaigns, including the realized budget, total budget, and flight schedule. This comprehensive overview allows advertisers to make informed decisions about budget reallocations and pacing adjustments to ensure that campaigns are running smoothly and efficiently.

The ability to monitor and adjust pacing in real-time is crucial for maximizing the impact of a campaign. Frequence’s platform ensures that teams have the tools they need to maintain optimal pacing, preventing budget mismanagement and ensuring that campaigns achieve their desired outcomes.
