Sign up for Paramount Ads Manager. You will receive an email to set your password after signing up. Once you set your password and log in, you can start creating a campaign by clicking “Create Campaign” on the top right corner.
The campaign creation flow has 5 steps.
○ Campaign Set Up: This is where you set your campaign name, which will only be visible to you and not the viewers of your ad. Pick something that allows you to easily identify your campaign later in your dashboard, such as 'Summer Promotion August 2024.'
○ Schedule and Budget: This is where you enter your campaign budget and when you want your ads to run.
○ Targeting: This is where you set your targeting by location (required), content placement (required), and demographics (optional). As you select your targeting, you will see a forecast widget on the right hand side that shows the number of estimated impressions and price per thousand impressions (CPM). Generally speaking, the broader your targeting, the cheaper the CPM.
○ Creatives: This is where you upload your video ad. If your video ad is ready, upload your ad by clicking '+ New Creative'. If you do not have your video ad ready yet, select 'Add Creative Later.'
○ Review and Payment: This is where you review the set up of your campaign and make any necessary changes. When you are ready, click 'Checkout' and proceed to the Payment page
