Each ad links back to the social platform it is mirroring and, has a second call to action button that links to the advertiser’s website! Ads contain unique social actions related back to the originating social platform (for example, the like icon, the heart icon, the pinning icon) These ads can integrate with all the major social media platforms: Facebook, Instagram, X, Linked In, Pinterest, TikTok, Snapchat, and YouTube. Creatively, ads can be display, video, carousel or OTT. Our Social Mirror ads offer the ability to click to call, click to email, and click to map for display, video, and carousel formats, and scan to call, scan to email, and scan for directions for the Social Mirror OTT format!

To show return on investment, we can report the total number of all the various clicks on the ad in your monthly report.So with Social Mirror ads we are NOT running the ad on the social media platform, we are “mirroring” the EXACT look of your social post and turning it into an ad that runs on thousands of OTHER websites and apps, targeting just to the people you want to reach, across all devices.Social Mirror ads can be done with any organic or paid posts from your business account on these eight social media platforms:
How are these ads targeted? As always, we start with the geographic area. You tell us the geographic area you want to reach, and then we layer in targeting strategies like Behavioral Targeting, Keyword Targeting, Artificial Intelligence (AI) Targeting and this also works with Retargeting as well.
We can also use Mobile Conquesting Cross Device Targeting to follow people who have been served a Mobile Conquesting ad, and then serve them a Social Mirror ad when they go onto all their different devices.
Now as for results, the average click thru rate (CTR) for a social mirror ad is .49% which is 7x higher than the national average.
As far as reporting, you won’t be able to see how many clicks go to the social page vs their website, but you do get an overall click total for the ads.So there you have it! It is as simple as a post looking in the mirror and seeing something even greater!
