Lots of brands seek exposure so direct sales from an ad may not be likely. You might not be wanting to buy something in the moment but next you are looking for something you'll associate that brand.
It's quite hard to track though some progress has been made through tracking you online on longer time scales. Most people dislike this type of tracking across channels cause we really don't get much out of it besides being bombarded with ads from the same company.

- owlninja 7y agoThat is a valid point, but also those products are available just about everywhere. Most ads I see on Instagram are some sort of subscription box-a-month club, or some fly by night t-shirt/hat company.
- rhizome 7y agoYou're talking about brand advertising, as distinct from product advertising. It's not so much about shopping for "something" as it's about instilling an affinity, a nudge, when the choice is between your brand and something else (a competitive brand, a cheaper store brand, etc.). That is, between items that are otherwise equal(ish).
