Hi,
I'm trying to figure out what's the best way to allocate our social media advertising spending, and I want to hear how to decide to engage as many potential users as possible.
Thank you!

    Not all products are the same and different ones do better than others with both platforms. The only way to know is to try both and see which performs better. Sometimes, the results are surprising.

    After seeing the performance of both, you'll have your answer as to which to allocate more spending on.

    It depends a lot in what you have to offer. Try both platforms and see what it will work best.

    My guess is that Instagram will work better for you.

    Test them both at the same time. This is the way to go.

    Though I have yet to put my toe in the water, a lot of marketers I follow are raving about the results they are getting from TikTok. Banned in India, but still alive and well most everywhere else.

    In my opinion, it depends on the market segment of your product. For example: age, interests and etc. After that, you can choose to use ads on the Instagram, Facebook or TikTok platforms.

    Instagram should be the best option . With Instagram you can visually attract the customers.

    Where as in facebook , people will be in different mood surfing videos, photos and articles. So it gets easy with instagram.

    Having said that , this may differ from product to product. The best way to get the correct answer is to test on both platforms.
