You can even add videos to get users to visit your app.
Video

You can track conversions for your video ads during the 30-day lookback period. However, view-through conversions are not included in the conversion metric. You can create a separate measure to assess the success of your video ads. Smart bidding is another option that can be used to implement additional activities during the customer journey.
Images

What is an advert buyer?
An advertiser buys advertising space on TV, radio, print media, etc.
An advertiser pays for the time they want their message to appear.
They do not always look for the best ads, but are looking for the most effective to reach their target audience.
An advertiser might have information specific to their potential customers such as age and gender, marital status or occupation, hobbies, interests, income, etc.
This data can be used by the advertiser to decide which media is most effective for them. For example, they might decide that direct mail would be more effective with older audiences.
Advertisers also consider the competition. Advertisers will look at the competition to see if similar businesses are nearby.
Advertisers should also consider the budget they have and how long they plan to spend it before it expires.
What is the best way to advertise in print?
Print advertising can be a powerful medium for communicating with customers. Many companies use it to promote products and services. Its main purpose is to grab the attention of consumers.
Print ads are typically short (1 page) and usually include text, photos, logos, or other graphics. They may also include sound, animation, video, and hyperlinks.
The main types of print advertisements are classified as follows:
1. Brochures - These are large format printed pieces designed to attract people into stores. Brochures can often be adorned with brightly colored images and eye-catching designs.
2. Catalogues are smaller versions than brochures. They are typically sent to customers who have requested information on specific items.
3. Flyers – These are small pieces made of paper that are distributed at events, such as fairs or concerts. Flyers can be handed out at retail outlets for a small fee, but are generally free.
4. Posters – These are larger versions than flyers. They can be displayed on fences, walls, or buildings. They are created by computer software programs in order to grab passersby's eyes.

Radio listeners are often not able to handle long TV commercials. Radio ads tend to be shorter and more affordable.
How can I select my target audience?
Begin by talking to yourself and people close to you. If you don't know where to begin, ask yourself, "who am I trying to reach?"
Ask yourself these questions: Who do you consider the most influential in your industry? What are their biggest challenges? What are their top talents? They hang out online.
Return to the beginning. What was your motivation for starting? What was your problem and how did it solve?
These answers will help you identify who your ideal clients are. Learn more about them and why they choose to do business with you.
For clues on who your competitors cater to, check out their websites and social media pages.
Once you've identified your target customers, you'll need to decide which channel(s) to use to reach them. A website might be created to reach home buyers, for instance, if your business provides services to agents in real estate.
If you provide software to small businesses, you could develop a blog targeting those companies' owners.
If you sell clothing, you could create a Facebook page for teens. For parents who are looking for child-friendly restaurants, you might set up your own Twitter account.
The important thing is that you have many options for getting your message across.
