Brands should be familiar with the eight audience types on Instagram to create effective campaigns for the platform.
While finding relevant ad audiences to target on Instagram, marketers should consider audiences’ awareness level. Consider top of the funnel (TOFU), middle of the funnel (MOFU) and bottom of the funnel (BOFU) audiences separately.
In the initial stage, use Facebook Ads Manager to build high-value audiences and start creating a new ad campaign with Instagram placements. Use buyer persona to guide TOFU “Saved audiences” through the funnel to turn them into valuable audiences.
