750M+

monthly active users keep Snapchat a major reach channel for younger Phoenix audiences. We've already mapped what this shift costs the brands that don't act.

75%

of users in the 13-34 age range are reachable on Snapchat, a demographic the growing Valley population skews toward. Compounding starts the day you commit, not the day the trend peaks.

2x

AR experiences drive significantly higher engagement than standard formats, a core Snapchat advantage. We use the trend to redirect spend, not to inflate it.

5x

our approach

How we run Snapchat ads for Phoenix clients

Native vertical creative

We produce full-screen video and AR lenses built specifically for Snapchat, because native creative is the only thing that performs for Phoenix brands on this platform. Validated in staging before it ever touches paid traffic.

Pixel & measurement

Test and scale

We test hooks, lenses and audiences, then scale the winners into broader Phoenix segments while keeping CPMs efficient and creative fresh. Documented at three altitudes: exec one-pager, operator brief, engineer spec.
