In an era defined by rapid technological advancements and unpredictable economic landscapes, businesses across the globe are seeking innovative ways to thrive amidst uncertainty.

In this dynamic environment, harnessing digital growth channels with Meta technologies has emerged as a beacon of hope, enabling brands and businesses to unlock new opportunities and propel their success even during challenging times, particularly in emerging markets.

This enables advertisers to optimize app install ads, scale campaigns with sustained performance, and work more efficiently, ultimately driving increased app installs, user engagement, and retention rates.

Some of Meta’s key products include Business Messaging to drive conversational commerce, CAPI (Conversion API) to mitigate signal loss, Reels to amplify content within Nigeria’s robust mobile-first market, and Performance Solutions that offer numerous advantages, such as enhanced customer reach, increased ad performance, and lower cost per action (CPA).

Advertisers can leverage these features to tap into the growing app market, drive user engagement, improve retention rates, and achieve revenue growth even in the face of economic uncertainty.

Meta CPM keeps getting lower and lower. After two consecutive quarters of declining CPM, it is now 41% cheaper YoY. Advertisers are benefitting from reduced competition on the platform and a shift back to offline following the pandemic.

Increased supply of impressions due to Reels, and greater adoption of broad audiences and ASC (Advantage+ Shopping Campaigns), are further reducing CPM. Combined with improved CVR (Conversion Rate), this is driving 32% lower CPA YoY.

In conclusion, economic uncertainties need not be viewed as insurmountable challenges, and the response need not be to pull back advertising efforts, in fact this is the time to double-down on advertising with Meta.

By harnessing digital growth channels with Meta technologies, businesses operating in emerging markets can transform adversity into opportunity. Embracing digital transformation, expanding customer reach, optimizing operations, and diversifying revenue streams empower organizations to thrive even in the most precarious economic conditions.
