As you most likely know, Instagram launched their new Ads capabilities on 10/1/2015. This new functionality is just another example of how social media platforms are shifting from purely engagement channels to performance channels. In order to be successful in social advertising, brands need to create native ads that align to the channel. There is no content more native than UGC, which is why ads containing UGC receive 5x the number of clicks.[push h=20]

Join our virtual discussion to hear how Macy’s exclusive brands division is leveraging this opportunity to engage consumers along the entire customer journey from awareness to conversions.[push h=10]
