We’re happy to announce the newest version of Ampjar! This release makes it easier than ever to grow your brand’s exposure with a personalized brand matching engine. We’ve also added two additional channels for you to be shared by and share other brands–socials and websites.
On top of that, we’ve designed most of these new features to be ‘always on’, meaning they are working behind the scenes to help your brand grow every day.
Here’s what’s new in Ampjar:
Personalized matching
Automatic ad creation
Better placements
Reach on-demand
Always on capabilities
Improved personalized matching for hosts and advertisers
One of our goals with this version of Ampjar is to get to know your company even better so that we can match you with awesome brands and ensure your ads are placed effectively.
All users are now asked to answer a few questions when they join (or log in if they’re an existing user) to help us learn the details of your business, the type of customers you already have, and the dream customers you’re trying to find more of.
These details are fed into our brand matching engine and help us pair you automatically with the best brands to help you get more exposure, traffic, and sales.
And don’t worry – you’ll still have the ability to match and unmatch with brands manually via the brand directories.
Automatic ad creation
We’ve always tried to make Ampjar easy to use and in this release, we’ve made creating ads easier than ever. Ampjar now takes your best Instagram content and creates ads around it automatically.
These ads can be approved with a click or you can edit them or create something new from the same screen.
Additionally, the ads can now be set to expire. If you have a promotion that’s only valid for a month, for instance, you can set the promo ad to expire in a month.
Better placements
Up until now, ads have only been available in email campaigns and we’re super proud to introduce 3 new ad placement options with an updated design.
Social Shoutouts
Social Shoutouts allow your ad to be placed in a hosts’ Instagram stories.
Thank You Page
We’ve added integrations for platforms like Shopify, Wix and WordPress in order for you to host or place ads on an Order Completion or Thank You page.
Thank You Email
Similarly, we’ve also been busy building out our list of email integrations to make it easier than ever to share your favorite brands in Thank You and Confirmation emails.
This builds on the success we’ve seen in placing ads in email newsletters.
On-demand reach
Boosting allows you to get more exposure with the click of a button – simply choose how much more visibility you want and we’ll handle the rest.
If you’ve got an upcoming sale, product launch, or specialized campaign that could benefit from more visibility then Boosting is for you.
Always on capabilities
One of the biggest accomplishments of this release is how much time it can save you. Almost everything in this list was designed with an ‘always on’ mindset and can function with limited input from you.
For us, ‘always-on’ goes beyond ‘set it and forget it’ – Ampjar is the first step in a collaborative flywheel that ensures your brand is shared just as often as you’re sharing other brands.
We think of it as a karmic advertising community. What you give is what you get, plus you’ll always be able to Boost your ads for more exposure. The focus of this release is to make sharing your favorite brands automatic, easy, and beneficial.
We made a bet when we first launched Ampjar (under a totally different name) 3 years ago. We thought that the biggest challenge that hyper-authentic brands faced was learning how to market like the biggest brands in the world. We thought that if
In many ways I think we all dream of having a swanky New York warehouse-style office with neon signs that greet you when you come out of the elevator. Those wooden floorboards, those breakout spaces, the yoga sessions in the huge conference room.
The wait is over. We’re super excited to announce the biggest Ampjar platform update to date! Earlier this year we rebranded as Ampjar and relaunched our website. Since then, we’ve been carefully listening to your feedback in our demos, webinars, and on Instagram.
