Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	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. Incentivized Anthonia Aveh Customer Service Analyst Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	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. Incentivized Ben Rubenstein Marketing Manager, HMX Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	Twitter ads are not the best way for people to promote things because they do not pop out enough on people's feeds. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	No answers on this topic	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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
