Introduction

Digital media buying is all about placing your ads on the right online platforms so that your target customers find you.

Instead of casting a wide net and hoping for the best, we use data-driven targeting to ensure your ads reach the people who are most likely to be interested. Imagine your ideal customer – perhaps a 30-year-old in Nairobi who loves tech gadgets – we can show your ads to exactly that kind of person as they browse the web or scroll through social media.

What makes digital advertising exciting is its measurability and flexibility. You’ll know how many people saw your ad, clicked it, and even took action (like filling a form or making a purchase). And if something’s not working, we can adjust on the fly. No waiting for next month’s billboard cycle – changes can be made in minutes. This agility is crucial, especially in Africa’s dynamic markets where consumer trends can shift quickly online.

At Digital Tailor Agency, we bring international standards to local markets. We’ve run campaigns on all major digital platforms and know what works with East African audiences. From the keywords Kenyans commonly search to the social media trends that East Africans engage with, we leverage these insights for your campaigns. The result? Higher click-through rates, better engagement, and more conversions for your ads. Plus, we do all this while speaking plain English (or Swahili, or French – whatever fits the market!), not technical gobbledygook. Our goal is to make digital advertising understandable and effective for you.
Expert Digital Team:
Our digital media buying squad is made up of certified professionals and experienced marketers. We live and breathe online ads every day. Whether it’s Google Ads, Facebook Business Manager, or the latest TikTok advertising features, our team stays on top of it. When you work with us, you’re tapping into expertise you can trust – we know how to craft campaigns that deliver results, because we’ve done it over and over for clients in various industries.
Precision Targeting:
One big advantage of digital advertising is the ability to target very specifically – and we make full use of it. We use advanced targeting options to zero in on your ideal audience. Want to show ads to Nairobi women aged 25-34 who are interested in fashion? Done. Need to reach English-speaking professionals in East Africa? No problem. We also consider things like devices (mobile vs desktop), times of day, and even user behaviors. This precision targeting means your ads are seen by the people most likely to convert, saving you money and boosting impact.
Data-Driven Optimization:
We don’t set and forget your campaigns. Our approach is highly data-driven – from day one, we track how your ads are performing and we optimize continually. If one ad image is doing better than another, we’ll shift budget to it. If a certain keyword isn’t delivering, we’ll tweak or replace it. We perform A/B tests (comparing different ad versions) to learn what your audience responds to best. This constant refinement ensures your campaign improves over time, squeezing more ROI from the same budget.
Local Digital Insight:
Advertising on global platforms in Africa requires local understanding. The way people use Facebook or Google in Kenya can differ from how they use it in Europe or the US. We bring in-depth local insight – we know the popular local websites, the slang or language that clicks with Kenyan netizens, and the peak times when Nigerians might engage online, for example. By combining global best practices with local knowledge, we create campaigns that truly speak to African audiences.
Transparent Analytics & Reporting:
Forget black box reporting. We provide you with clear, easy-to-understand reports. You’ll see numbers that matter – impressions (how many times your ad was seen), clicks (how many people interacted), click-through rates, conversion counts, and cost per result. But we don’t just hand over numbers; we explain what they mean. We’ll tell you which ads worked best and what that implies. Our transparency builds trust – you’ll always know how your digital ad spend is performing, right down to the last cent.
In the digital realm, there are numerous channels and ad formats. We help you pick and execute the ones that make the most sense for your goals. Our digital media buying covers:
Search Engine Ads
Be visible at the very moment someone is looking for what you offer. We place search ads on platforms like Google (and also Bing or others if relevant) so that when users in your target region search for keywords related to your business, your name is the first thing they see. For example, if you run a safari tour company, we’ll make sure your ad appears when someone searches “best safari in Kenya”. These ads capture high-intent customers ready to engage.
Social Media Ads:
Engage customers where they socialize and spend their free time. We create targeted campaigns on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter (X), LinkedIn, and even TikTok. Each platform has its strengths – Facebook and Instagram are great for broad consumer reach with images/videos, LinkedIn is ideal for B2B and professionals, and TikTok is fantastic for creative, viral content among younger audiences. We tailor your message and format to each platform, ensuring your ads feel native and compelling in the feed.
Display & Banner Ads:
Build brand awareness by showing up on popular websites and apps. Through display advertising networks (like Google Display Network and others), we can have your banner ads appear on news sites, blogs, and mobile apps frequented by your target audience. For instance, your ad could appear alongside an online article in a top Kenyan news site or within a popular regional app. These visually driven ads are perfect for keeping your brand top-of-mind among potential customers as they browse online.
Video Advertising:
Harness the power of sight, sound, and motion. We set up video ads on platforms like YouTube and Facebook, or as short clips before videos on websites (pre-roll ads). Video is incredibly engaging – imagine a 15-second clip showcasing your product or a testimonial, delivered to thousands of viewers. We ensure your videos are shown to the right people (say, tech enthusiasts on YouTube or cooking fans on a recipe site) so that your story gets the attention it deserves. With more and more Africans streaming video content, this is a fast-growing channel you don’t want to miss.
Remarketing Campaigns:
Ever noticed how an ad for something you viewed online seems to “follow” you to other sites? That’s remarketing (or retargeting), and it’s a powerful tool we offer. If someone visits your website or clicks your ad but doesn’t immediately convert, we can re-engage them with tailored ads later on. It’s a gentle nudge – reminding interested prospects about your brand and encouraging them to come back and take action. This significantly improves conversion rates, as it targets people who’ve already shown interest.
Programmatic Advertising:
For campaigns that need scale and efficiency, we utilize programmatic ad buying. This means using automated platforms to purchase ad inventory across thousands of sites in real-time, targeting specific audiences based on data. It’s like having AI assist in placing your ads in front of the perfect viewers at the perfect moment, and it can be very cost-effective for reaching large audiences. Don’t worry about the technicalities – we handle all the complexity, you reap the benefits of cutting-edge ad tech.
In short, whatever the digital channel – search, social, display, video, mobile, and more – we have the capability to get your brand message there. And we’ll choose the mix that aligns best with your campaign goals, so every digital shilling you spend works hard to bring you business.
Our process for digital media buying is designed to be straightforward and adaptive. Here’s how we take your online campaign from concept to clicking:
1. Audience Research & Strategy:
First, we define who you want to reach and what action you want them to take. We work with you to outline your target audience (demographics, interests, location, etc.) and campaign objectives (e.g. website sign-ups, product sales, app installs). Then, our team conducts research using tools and local insights – what keywords are popular, which websites your audience visits, how they behave online. Using this, we formulate a custom digital strategy for you. This includes choosing which platforms to use and crafting key messages that will speak to your audience.
2. Campaign Setup:
With a strategy in hand, we roll up our sleeves and set up your campaigns. This means creating the ad accounts (if not already existing), configuring targeting parameters, and designing your ads. We write compelling ad copy that is clear and action-oriented. We also design or refine visuals – from banner images to short video snippets – ensuring they are eye-catching and meet the technical specs of each platform. Every detail is handled: we set budgets, bidding strategies, and durations for each ad group. By the end of this stage, all your ads are ready to go and primed to reach the right eyes.
3. Launch & Tracking:
Time to go live! We launch the campaign according to schedule – sometimes it’s immediate, other times we time it with a specific event or date (for example, a holiday promotion). The moment your ads start running, we also start tracking performance. We have tools in place (like Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, etc.) to gather data on how people interact with your ads and website. If you’re running an e-commerce site, we track sales; if it’s a branding campaign, we track engagement metrics. Essentially, we make sure we can see everything that’s happening.
4. Optimization & Management:
This is where the magic happens continuously. We monitor the campaign daily (and in some cases hourly) especially in the early phases. If we see opportunities to improve results, we act on them. For instance, if one ad is getting a much higher click-through rate than another, we might allocate more budget to it. If certain times of day yield better results, we adjust scheduling. We might add negative keywords to avoid irrelevant clicks or tweak the audience if we discover a certain group responds better. This hands-on management means your campaign gets better and better over time, rather than stagnating. We essentially squeeze more results out of your budget by being attentive and agile.
5. Reporting & Communication:
Throughout the campaign, and definitely once it concludes, we provide you with reports that break down the performance in detail. But we don’t just send a bunch of numbers. We’ll highlight key insights: perhaps we achieved a cost per lead 20% lower than industry benchmarks, or maybe one region responded exceptionally well to your offer. We’ll also be honest about what didn’t work as expected and why – maybe one platform underperformed and we shifted funds to another that thrived. Along with the data, expect a clear explanation in plain language. We welcome discussions around the results and next steps. Our goal is that you feel confident in what was achieved and what we recommend going forward.
From start to finish, we maintain open lines of communication. You can be as involved or hands-off as you prefer – some clients like to review every ad before launch, others say “you’re the experts, go for it.” Either way, we adapt to your style while ensuring professional execution.

At the end of the day, our digital media buying service is about making your life easier and your marketing more effective. We handle the complexities of online advertising, so you can focus on handling the influx of leads and customers that come your way!
