Is advertising with Valentine’s Day in mind worth it in 2022?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Yes, absolutely! According to Statista<\/a>, US citizens spent $27.4 billion on Valentine’s Day last year, and sales were up $6.7 billion from the previous year. In addition, 32% of survey respondents chose to do their Valentine’s Day shopping online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Running Valentine’s Day-related ad campaigns is a must for every digital advertiser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

What target audience should advertisers focus on?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to Statista’s data<\/a>, the top spenders on Valentine’s Day are aged 35 to 44, followed by those aged 25 to 34, and then 45 to 54. In addition, men are typically expected to spend twice as much as women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So you have your first target audience right there: men aged 34 to 44. The best strategy here is to choose offers based on the preferences of each age and gender group, then tailor the ad copy and creatives to the target audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most Valentine’s Day gifts are gifted to partners. However, gifts for other family members, friends, coworkers, and pets are frequently purchased on Valentine’s Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Understanding which Valentine’s Day gifts are the most popular will reveal which holiday promotions will be the most popular. But what people plan to buy for others and what they’d love to receive can be quite different. Here’s a table comparing both:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where to run Valentine’s Day ad campaigns?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let’s take a look at which countries spend the most on Valentine’s Day gifts. Here’s a breakdown by GEO (from the highest to the lowest average spend per person):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. English speaking countries: The US, the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. European countries: Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Sweden;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Others: India, Argentina, Mexico, South Africa.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    You should be careful with Indonesia and Saudi Arabia. Countries like Iran still celebrate Valentine’s Day, but we recommend delicate advertising that is respectful and conservative. Don’t go overboard with the topic of relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n

    Advertisers should still check whether GEOs in these categories convert with their campaigns. That’s why testing should be at the top of your to-do list. It’ll help you figure out what campaign setup works best and where to scale up by identifying the best-performing traffic units for a given campaign. It also stops you from going over your budget by excluding the underperformers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    It’s also a good idea to ask your traffic source for a whitelist of top-performing sources and GEOs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Remember to double-check that the information you’ve provided corresponds to your campaign’s setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Once you’ve figured out what you want to promote and where you want to promote it, the next step is finding out how to do it correctly. We recommend selecting an ad format, a vertical, and the appropriate targeting type for this Valentine’s Day marketing campaign. Then, after a period of testing, bid on the best-performing units while ignoring those that poorly convert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Which verticals work best for Valentine’s Day advertising?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Your promoted offers, like any other season-specific marketing campaign, must be appropriate for the occasion. You must have your offers and verticals aligned with the Valentine’s Day theme and what people need for this occasion \u2014 i.e., Valentine’s Day demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Based on industry data, current search, and online retail trends, the following verticals and offers are most effective around Valentine’s Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
