Why Instagram Advertising

Each Placement Needs Its Own Creative

Instagram ads run in Reels, Stories, Feed and Explore, and each placement shows the ad at a different size and in a different setting. An image made for the Facebook feed is often cropped in Stories or skipped in Reels. Instagram advertising in Malaysia gets better results when the creative is made for each placement: vertical video with captions for Reels and Stories, and square or portrait images for Feed.

What We Do

What Our Instagram Ads Services Cover

Primal runs Instagram ads in 6 parts, inside the same Meta account as your Facebook ads. The media strategy sets which come first for your brand.

  • Reels AdsFull-screen vertical video for Reels, with captions and the product shown in the first seconds.
  • Stories AdsVertical images and video between people’s Stories, with a clear tap through to your site or store.
  • Feed And Explore AdsSquare and portrait images, video and carousels in the Instagram feed and the Explore tab.
  • AudiencesPast customers, site visitors, lookalike audiences and broad targeting, shared with your Facebook campaigns where that helps Meta’s system learn.
  • Conversion TrackingThe Meta Pixel and server-side conversion tracking, so orders and enquiries from Instagram are recorded against each ad.

FAQ

Your Instagram Advertising Questions Answered

Should my brand advertise on Instagram or Facebook?

Usually both. Instagram and Facebook ads are bought in the same Meta account, and Meta can show each ad in the placement where it gets the best result. Primal sets the placements per campaign and reports Instagram and Facebook side by side, so you can see what each one returns.

What creative do Instagram ads need?

Vertical 9:16 video and images for Reels and Stories, and square or 4:5 portrait images for Feed. Primal prepares several concepts per campaign so the creative can be tested, and the creative brief states who produces each piece.

Is Instagram advertising worth it for my business?

It is worth it when your buyers use Instagram and your product can be shown in an image or a short video, as with fashion, beauty, food, travel and retail. The results can be judged only when tracking records what happens after the tap, so the strategy covers conversion tracking before spend increases.

How do I choose an Instagram ads agency in Malaysia?

Ask for case studies with figures from Meta campaigns, who will manage your account day to day, how orders and leads are tracked back to each ad, and whether the agency is a Meta Business Partner.

Can you run Instagram ads for a Shopee or Lazada store?

Yes. Collaborative ads, Meta’s Collaborative Performance Advertising Solution (CPAS), run on Instagram and Facebook and send shoppers to your products in a Shopee or Lazada store, with the orders reported back to your ad account.

How much does Instagram advertising with Primal cost?

Media management for Instagram advertising starts from RM3,980 a month per channel, plus your ad spend, which is billed separately. The fee depends on the number of channels and campaigns and the creative your campaigns need. Scope is set after a 30-minute call. See our guide to Facebook Ads costs in Malaysia.
