As shocking as it may seem, advertising on social media is not a relatively new idea. Since the early 2000’s, advertisers have used Facebook, LinkedIn and other websites to expose their clients to a bigger audience with simple banner ads. In recent years, there has been an explosion of social media platforms, dedicated to content creation. These platforms have only increased the audience reach and creativity levels put into advertisements. This includes Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, Pinterest, and more.
