How to Elevate Your Meta Catalog Ads: The Power of Dynamic Video with Smartly

Riding the wave of evolving ad platforms, weaving videos into your paid social playbook is the trend that's skyrocketing. Recent video marketing movements underscore the power of high-quality visuals in not just driving awareness but also supercharging your ROI.

While traditional platforms have their limitations for video ads, Meta is set to revolutionize your lower funnel strategy with the introduction of Dynamic Media for Catalog Ads (Product Level Video). If you're eager to deliver better performance immediately using an untapped format with assets that you already have, you've come to the right place. Smartly is uniquely positioned to take advantage of this newly created format.

What is Dynamic Media?‍

If you're not yet acquainted with Meta’s Dynamic Media for Catalog Ads, it's currently reshaping the social landscape. This innovative feature empowers advertisers to seamlessly integrate videos directly into their catalogs at the product/SKU level, allowing marketers to craft tailored product-centric videos for a variety of Meta placements, including reels and stories.

The true power of dynamic media lies in its unique ability to synchronize high-impact formats. In practical terms, this means that Meta can now display videos instead of the traditional product image for users more inclined to engage with motion content. For those who predominantly enjoy watching Reels, relevant product ads can now be seamlessly incorporated, a feature not available before the advent of dynamic media. Early results among Smartly advertisers have shown promising outcomes, with increased conversions and enhanced unique reach on these video-first placements.
