Target In-Market Travelers with Trip Consideration
Published March 6, 2018 by Alexander Marinov
Facebook continues to add more to the toolbox for travel advertisers. The latest vertical solution, which uses general travel intent, is trip consideration. It helps travel advertisers reach users who are in-market to travel but have not decided on a specific destination. Leveraging this new feature is easy and can be very effective for travel advertisers. This solution is a great way to put a brand or direct response message in front of a user with travel intent as opposed to only using core targeting exclusively.
What Makes Trip Consideration Unique?
- Trip consideration will prioritize deliver for people who have expressed travel intent, rather than optimizing for clickers.
- As an optimization layer and not an actual audience, trip consideration can be used in conjunction with other audiences where interests and behavior targeting act as filters. Since trip consideration doesn’t require a catalog, this is the easiest travel-intent-based audience to leverage.
How Is Trip Consideration Different from Broad Audiences?
When comparing trip consideration to broad audiences on Facebook, there are a couple of unique distinctions and features to consider:- Creative for trip consideration is static whereas broad audiences is dynamic and based on what your catalog makes available.
- Trip consideration is intended to fit as an upper funnel play, allowing you to customize messaging and segment targeting in order to best fit your brand/deal/promotional effort. Broad audiences is considered a mid-funnel solution and uses intent based on destinations.
Requirements and Use Cases
This new feature only requires you to already have the Facebook pixel on site, and it does not require a catalog since it doesn’t support the catalog sales objective campaigns. As we mentioned above, the best way to leverage trip consideration is to showcase travel deals and popular or inspirational destinations, with brand-building creative. In order to use or turn on trip consideration, look for a toggle during ad set creation in the ‘Optimization & Delivery’ section. Turning on this toggle will turn on trip consideration optimization.You may be interested in
