The internet is a wonderfully wild place where you can find just about anything. Clever social media advertising can even result in discovering awe-inspiring items you never would have imagined you’d ever need.

The Facebook and Instagram advertising platform allows for very specific targeting, based on demographics, interests and your online activity. That’s why once you’ve Googled something random like “Why is dandruff called dandruff,” you will probably notice an advert for anti-dandruff shampoo next time you’re scrolling. (We are still trying to figure out why it’s called that. One question the internet can’t answer!!)

But sometimes advertisers don’t quite hit the mark with their targeting, and ads pop up in your newsfeed that don’t quite relate to you. The team at Podium have been noticing some very compelling social media ads that we thought we’d share with you, in case you missed these interesting gift ideas!

Can you guess which member of staff saw the following adverts? Let us know on Facebook!

 

 

Pawesome art.

Does Facebook know who is obsessed with their pet? Yes. But which pet owner from Podium has now invested in a personalised pet portrait?

 

Ooh, it’s in Podium pink!

This is how I explained a ‘posh loo’ to my mom.

 

Cold hands, warm…

 

Practical AND entertaining. Which member of the Podium fam do you think saw this targeted advert?

This one’s pretty obvious, too…

 

Personalised with a super clever innuendo AND typos – wow!

 

Two words: Chicken. Daddies.

 

2022 is the Year of the Tiger but we think we’ll celebrate a year of Chicken Daddies instead.

 

We NEED this fabulous dress.

Which Podium gal would wear something like this? We’re not sure either.

 

We’re nuts for this!

You had me at ‘ginger huge perky.’

 

Only £9.99!

Oh crap, that’s a bargain.

 

Football fanatics

Guess which one of us is a fan of Arsenal. (Hint: no one.)

 

Just…why?

 

Sometimes, Facebook is just too much. I think someone is getting this for Secret Santa this year…
