How to set up Teaser Promo Material

In the article below, we will take a closer look at the process of setting up TEASER promo material.

Highlights #

Create a promotional material to launch a saved campaign.

After setting up the campaign, the system will transfer you to the new Promo section. You need to fill out this section because here you can add the Target URL, to which traffic will go.

Teaser is an ad that consists of a title, description, and image. Salematics can display banners or push notifications as promo materials.

Block Information #

First, name a promo material. You can copy it from the offer name.

Select one of the methods to open promotional materials from the Render Type drop-down list:

• HIDE REF — with hiding referer. The address of the page from which the user came is hidden. We recommend using this setting in most cases.
• 302 — without hiding HTTP referer. Promo opens via Traffic Delivery System. This option is required when the advertiser wants to get an HTTP referer.

Select Teaser in the Type of ad inventory drop-down list and save settings.

Please note: the list of ad inventories depends on campaign settings. If the appropriate type of promo is not available, make sure you select the Teaser or All option on the campaign page.

When you set up Teaser, the system will automatically tick the type of loading of promotional material with the same name.

Enter the title and text of the future ad in separate fields.

Click Upload to add the image. First, make sure that it meets the requirements of the platform.

Specify the link to the page of your resource. A user will be directed to it from this advertisement. The system will display the specified URL on the promotional material.

Please note: if the link matches the Target URL, leave the field blank.

Below you can see how the final version of the ad will look like.

Block Setup of placement types #

The setting of placement types depends on the chosen type of inventory. The inventory or method of promo display in an advertising driver, in turn, depends on the placement types. Placement types are set in accordance with the type of advertising material.

The platform Salematics contains the following varieties:

• Push
  An ad that converts into a push notification to increase your audience reach.
• Teaser
  A promotional material that is displayed on the websites and applications of publishers. The type of ad inventory is used by default.
• Banner
  A teaser converts into a banner format to increase your audience reach.

Block Target page URL #

In the last block, you must specify the link to the landing page of the resource. The user will be directed to it from the advertisement. You can select a link type for the Target URL:

• Regular. A link leads to a simple page (landing page). It might look like this: https://www.viber.com/download-android-update/.
• File. The link redirects the user directly to the document for downloading. This type is useful when the advertiser does not have a landing page. For example, when a user clicks on directlink, he will immediately begin to download the file: https://download.viber.com/apk/ViberAndroid-9.6.5.5.apk. An advertiser can use the HTML pre-landing page for similar purposes.
• Mobile Deep Link allows you to specify a link to a section of the mobile application. When a visitor clicks on the link, he will go to the part of the application with a specific section or product card. For example, a link tg://resolve/?domain=trickort will direct the user to the appropriate Telegram messenger group.

Target URL has dynamic parameters. Parameters pass information about the user to the advertiser. Based on them, the system selects promotional material.

Add dynamic parameters according to the instructions in tooltips. The list of these parameters is under the field with the same name.

Now copy the target address from the advertiser’s page. Insert URL in the appropriate field on the platform. Make sure that the link does not contain parameters that the platform doesn’t support. Some options may not work with a postback. Click Save.

Please note: if the advertiser’s account settings contain Target URL parameters, they will be automatically substituted into the Target URL. Make sure that you do not duplicate the parameters from the advertiser’s account during the Target URL setup. Otherwise, this will cause errors.

Change the status of the promotional material from Draft to Launched in the appeared Management block.

To find out about conversions, you need to set up a postback on the advertiser’s page. More information about this process you can find in a separate article.

Return to the campaign settings page and change its status. After that, the campaign will be fully launched.
