AdButler is suitable for any company size but I would said that it is better for small to medium-sized agencies. AdButler is highly scalable but the control panel/dashboard could be challenging to manage if you have many campaigns or many users. It's also a good alternative for ad networks, which would like to manage multiple relationships with publishers.

Twitter is well suited for brands seeking to effectively manage and tweak their advertising campaign, while also interacting in real-time with people who stumble on their ads, thus maximizing optimal result. It is also my suggested ad platform for brands who want to target the younger generation, especially millennials and those born in the 1990s.

  • Reports are very simple and easy to read

  • Ease of use. It's very simple to add new creative to an existing campaign, or to quickly promote a tweet.
  • Reporting. I appreciate the dashboard that shows how many organic and paid impressions tweets have received, as well as the resulting engagements.
  • Low-lift advertising. The new auto-promote option makes it so I don't have to choose which tweets I want to promote.

Cons
  • Assigning multiple video publishers to a single campaign is something that they need to improve
  • The publisher dashboard is a little complicated to understand

  • Limitation of characters to only 140.
  • While the targeting of Twitter is relevant most of the time, it is not always right and there are some ads that are completely unrelated to the search terms entered.
  • Not as many users as Facebook.

Twitter ads are not the best way for people to promote things because they do not pop out enough on people's feeds.

Usability

The tool is ok to use, and ads are becoming more skippable on Twitter, so we are unsure as a company if it's still a good channel for direct response messaging. It does not perform as efficiently as other social platforms for lower funnel marketing. It does well for awareness campaigns that are set and forget, but optimizing for DR is not as efficient when you are trying to manage the ads on the client side.

Alternatives Considered
AdButler is very convenient and very cost effective. Additionally, when you change a setup at the ad level, the server shows the change immediately; there's no delay. Ad Manager is better when you manage a significant amount of campaigns and users, but it's not that cheap in the end and you always have to wait for any change. EPOM is also a good solution, but the look and feel are old and it's complicated for some users to manage properly.

Compared to Facebook Ads or Instagram Ads, Twitter Ads was more expensive. However, when we only look at the conversions rate of Twitter Ads, it always had way higher numbers, mainly because it is conversation driven and allows for the customer to speak directly to you as a business owner in a 2 way conversation.

  • It's also highly scalable

  • One Positive Impact has been that having ads running has increased the number of followers we have on Twitter.
  • Another positive impact is that due to having more followers, we now have more visits to our site.
  • A mixed impact would be that positively, since we have Adwords implemented as well, we can track back the source of our website traffic to being from a social source like Twitter. The negative of it is that Twitter ads does not have the tracking capability and we still need Google Adwords to do so.
