In this continuing series, with the holiday shopping season fast approaching, three marketers from our Expert Services team share one of their most effective tips to maximize the all-important Q4.
Tip #1 – Save a bulk sheet & exclude holiday performance from bid portfolios
Download your campaigns’ structure and bids prior to any ad hoc holiday adjustments.
When using Skai bidding portfolios be sure to exclude high-traffic dates from consideration as these will cause unintended optimizations. Pausing bid portfolios and monitoring bids and spending manually is also an option for controlling holiday activity when significant traffic spikes are expected—or maybe just pause automated optimization during the peak holiday dates.

Tip #2 – Optimize your creative placement strategy for social
Use Placement Asset Customization ads to streamline your holiday creative.
Costs tend to rise during the holidays due to competition, so to be more efficient, Meta recommends advertisers use auto-placement in their targeting. When doing so, the client should use Placement Asset Customization (PAC) ads to make sure those correct aspect ratios are served on the appropriate placement, without having to segment into different ad sets.
For example, Stories & Reels should always use a vertical 9:16 image or video, while Feeds should use a square 1:1 image/video. PAC ads allow you to have different aspect ratios within one ad.

Tip #3 – Keep an eye on your Share-of-Voice (SOV) this season.
Analyze your SOV during peak through the Competitive Insights dashboard
Using Skai’s Competitive Insights dashboard, you can see if your competition starts to push more in anticipation of the peak shopping season. Conversely, if you notice as the season goes on that your chief rivals begin to pull back on their spending, it might be the right time to push ahead and beat them to sales.
Stay diligent! Monitor day-over-day and week-over-week changes in your and your competition’s SOV through the new Competitive Insights dashboard.
