Simply click ‘Create Ad’ in the menu at the top of the page or visit https://business.getonbloc.com/ads/. Here you will create your account and complete your ad creative in two quick and easy steps, it’s as simple as that.

1. Create Ad – in order to advertise with Bloc you will need to create a Bloc business account or login if you already have one. Then creating your advert couldn’t be easier. Simply follow the steps below:

– Tell us your venue name and location. This is your adverts title e.g. The Place, LA.
– Next we need the location of your venue. Simply start typing the name of your venue and it will automatically come up on the map.
– Website URL. If you supply a URL your adverts title e.g. The Place, LA will be hyperlinked and people can click through to your website. This is optional but we do recommend this to get the best results for your campaign.
– Supply a venue or company logo. This is optional, and if one isn’t supplied our placeholder logo will be used.
– Upload a photo or video for your ad creative.
– Write a description. This is the ad copy limited to 200 characters.
– Tell us a USP (unique selling point) or any deals for your venue. We will use these to send a notification to users who come within 100 yards of your venue.

You can see what your newsfeed ad will look like on the example phone found on the right hand side.

2. Enter payment details – The final step is setting up your payment method. Your ad will not run unless there is a payment method given.

That’s it! Your ad will go live as soon as it has been approved which can take up to 24 hours. Once you have been approved you can login to your dashboard to view your analytics.
