What Is Fashion Advertising?
To put it simply, fashion advertising is the practice of promoting a fashion brand through the use of advertisements. This can range from traditional advertising methods, such as magazines, to more modern forms of digital marketing, like paid advertising and paid social.
The ultimate goal of fashion advertising is to improve the brand awareness of your business and to also increase the number of sales that you generate in the long term. You will definitely experience an increased number of sales in the short term, but ultimately we want to aim for long-term growth.
Are Google Ads Good for Advertising Your Clothing Brands?
We’re fairly convinced that Google Ads is worth it for any business in any industry, and that’s because the benefits that Google Ads provides aren’t restricted to one industry above the others but can help out any brand that’s trying to establish their online presence.
This is because Google Ads for clothing brands places your brand in a prominent position, generally at the exact moment that user is searching for products like the ones that you provide. In other words, you’re indirectly “proposing” your brand as the “solution” to a user’s “problem” by having your advertisements displayed when that user is searching for something.
This simple advertising method can really make a huge difference in your brand’s overall visibility and turnover.
In fact, it’s been theorized that Google Ads is the reason for the immense growth experienced by the online fast-fashion marketplace, Shein. And it’s a theory that makes sense as well, especially when considering that interest in Shein grew significantly during the last 4 years:
Hence, if you want to experience that kind of impressive growth, you need to seriously consider including Google Ads in your overall marketing strategy. And this is because depending on only one marketing method won’t cut it in today’s competitive landscape: you need all the help you can get.

Deep Dive into Your Brand: The Foundation of Success
Our journey together begins with a deep dive into the very essence of your brand. This isn’t a quick dip in the shallows; we’re talking a comprehensive consultation designed to uncover the unique DNA that sets your fashion brand apart. We’ll explore your brand identity – the values, story, and personality that resonate with your customers. Who are you, and what makes you stand out in the crowded fashion marketplace?
Next, we’ll delve into your target audience. Understanding their demographics, online behavior, interests, and fashion aspirations is crucial for crafting messaging that truly connects. Do you cater to the young and trendy, the sophisticated professional, or the eco-conscious consumer? Perhaps your audience is a diverse mix – and that’s perfectly fine! By pinpointing their unique characteristics, we can tailor your Google Ads strategy to reach them where they are and speak their language.
Finally, we’ll set our sights on your marketing goals. Are you looking to ignite a brand awareness revolution and establish yourself as a household name? Perhaps your focus is on driving targeted traffic to your online store and converting browsers into loyal customers.

Whatever your aspirations, we’ll work collaboratively to define clear, measurable goals that will serve as the guiding light for your Google Ads campaign.
By taking the time to truly understand your brand, audience, and objectives, we lay the groundwork for a Google Ads strategy that is not just effective, but truly transformative.
Targeted Audience Building: Precision Marketing for the Fashion-Forward
In today’s digital age, generic advertising is a relic of the past. Your target audience isn’t a faceless mass; they’re real people with distinct styles, interests, and online behaviors. That’s why we take a laser-focused approach to audience building, crafting segments so precise they feel tailor-made for each individual.
We’ll leverage the power of demographics to reach your ideal customer. Age, income, location, and even parental status can all play a role in shaping fashion choices. But demographics are just the first layer. We’ll delve deeper, exploring your audience’s interests – are they avid followers of fashion blogs, or do they seek inspiration from celebrities? Understanding their online behavior is also key. Do they frequent discount clothing sites, or are they more likely to browse luxury e-commerce stores?
Most importantly, we’ll utilize past interactions with your brand to build powerful remarketing audiences. Did someone add a dress to their cart but abandon it at checkout? We can reach them again with a gentle reminder and a special offer. Have loyal customers consistently purchased a specific style of shoe? Let’s show them the latest additions to that line, keeping them engaged and coming back for more.
By layering demographics, interests, online behavior, and past interactions, we create audience segments that are hyper-targeted and hyper-effective. Your ads won’t just be seen; they’ll be seen by the people who are most likely to resonate with your brand and convert into paying customers. This precision marketing approach ensures you maximize campaign effectiveness and get the most out of your advertising budget.

What Is Google Ads?
We’re sure that our services will be far more enticing if you actually knew what Google Ads is, and knew a little bit of how it operates. Otherwise, it would be like trying to sell a painting to a blind man: it’s just not going to work. So, let’s give you a little explainer of the platform.
Firstly, Google Ads is a paid advertising platform that’s owned and managed by Google. In other words, it’s where users go to pay Google directly in order for their adverts to be displayed across the properties that are owned by Google, or else on properties owned by webmasters that partner with Google.
Where your ads will be displayed is a matter of choice, depending on which “form” of Google Ads you choose to utilize. Better known as “campaign types,” there are several of these “forms” of Google Ads, though not all of them are equally popular or relevant to ecommerce.
The most common campaign types for ecommerce are definitely the following:
- Search ads: these are the sponsored listings that appear at the top of the search results on Google. They’re one of the most common types of ads in Google Ads.
- Display ads: these are the banner ads that tend to appear on the websites you visit.
- Video ads: these are the video-based advertisements that play whenever you watch a video on YouTube.
- Shopping ads: much like search ads, these are sponsored listings but instead of appearing on Google Search, they appear on Google Shopping.
However, no matter which campaign types you choose to make use of, Google Ads works in pretty much the same way, which is through an auction system. In other words, users “bid” on keywords, much like in an auction, depending on the maximum amount they’re willing to pay for an interaction with their ads on that keyword.
The “interactions” that you pay for will differ depending on campaign type and your marketing goals. The most common “interactions” that you’re going to encounter are the following:
- CPC: short for “cost per click,” this is when you pay for every time a user clicks on your adverts.
- CPM: short for “cost per mille,” this is when you pay for every 1000 times that your ad is viewed by users, regardless of whether they click on it.
- CPE: short for “cost per engagement,” this is when you pay for every time a user interacts with your ads in a particular way, depending on the kind of ads you’ve chosen.
While this isn’t a complete explanation of how Google Ads works, it’s a decent introduction into a highly complex tool. If you require more details, feel free to ask when you decide to contact us!
Where Do Google Display Ads Appear?
If you’re interested in making use of display ads, it’s often a best practice to know where they will show up. That way, we can strategize together the sorts of locations that you might prefer your adverts to appear.
We’ve already mentioned that display ads appear on websites that you visit; often, display ads will be optimized to be displayed on websites that are relevant to the adverts themselves. For example, a shoe brand can choose to advertise their products on a website that writes about foot health or sports.
However, there’s also the option to display these advertisements on “irrelevant” websites but to relevant users. So, for example, if a user is on a news website but they have displayed an interest in sports equipment, then they might receive ads for sportswear, gym equipment, etc.
Finally, display ads can also appear on mobile apps. In fact, if you’ve ever used an app and saw an ad pop up as you’re using the app, then you know exactly what we’re talking about.
