Hi everyone,
In this week's edition of Kavanah Media's Weekly Marketing Rundown, we'll talk about a new Google Ads Performance Max update, updates to Reels Ads, and more. Let's dive in.
Google Ads recently released an update for performance max campaigns that now allows them to turn images from your product feed into video ads for YouTube and YouTube shorts.
Google (and other platforms) have been making a push towards Ai generated content for ads over the last few months. With this being a new update, it's unclear how it will positively or negatively impact the performance of your Pmax campaigns.
If you're against the concept of Google auto-generating PMax ads for you, it's important that you add your own assets for all of the available placements to ensure Google is running ads you created.

Similar to regular multi-advertiser ads, multiple ads are appearing on the screen at one time. However, in the new format, the ads are showing on their own dedicated screen, rather than in gallery form underneath an in-feed ad. It’s unclear at this time when this update will be rolled out to everyone. Advertisers do have the option to opt out if they choose.

In a much-anticipated move, Telegram has added a stories feature for its 700 million monthly active users around the world. This feature is expected to work very similarly to the stories feature found on Meta apps and Snapchat, with a few additional features. On Telegram, you can edit your stories even after they have gone live, and more granular settings on who in your contacts can see them.

X (previously known as Twitter) has implemented several recent changes, including altering the sorting algorithm for logged-out users. This new system prioritizes posts based on the number of likes, which has the unintended consequence of burying recent posts and reducing the effectiveness of pinned posts. Additionally, X Pro is now exclusively available to verified subscribers, marking another significant shift under Musk's tenure.
