Ecommerce Advertising is part of our Advertising Agency services in Surrey, focused on paid campaigns that sell products from your online store.
What does Ecommerce Advertising include?
Ecommerce Advertising joins product search ads, social catalogue ads and retargeting into one plan built around your store’s sales data. Each channel reaches shoppers at a different point, and we manage how they work together.
- Google Merchant Center setup and product feed review
- Google Shopping and Performance Max campaigns
- Meta catalogue connection for Facebook and Instagram product ads
- Advantage+ catalogue ads that show each shopper relevant products
- Retargeting for product viewers and cart abandoners
- Purchase tracking with conversion value on every platform
- Reporting on revenue, return on ad spend and margin by product group
How do Google and Meta ads work together for an online store?
Google ads catch shoppers who are already searching for a product, while Facebook and Instagram ads create demand among people who were not searching yet. Most stores need both, with budgets weighted by what they sell.
| Channel | Shopper stage | What we manage |
|---|---|---|
| Google Shopping | Searching for a specific product | Feed titles, product groups, bids and negative keywords |
| Performance Max | Searching and browsing across Google | Asset groups, listing groups, audience signals |
| Facebook & Instagram catalogue ads | Discovering products in feeds, Stories and Reels | Catalogue sync, product sets, creative and audiences |
| Retargeting | Viewed a product or left a cart | Audience windows, frequency and product-specific ads |
For deeper work on one channel, see Google Shopping Ads and Google Remarketing & Retargeting.
Why does the product feed matter so much?
Shopping and catalogue ads are built from your product feed, so the feed decides which searches you appear for and how products look in ads. A weak feed limits every campaign that depends on it.
- Clear product titles that include the terms shoppers use, such as brand, type, size and colour
- Accurate price, availability and shipping details that match your website
- Correct product identifiers such as GTINs where they exist
- Clean, high-quality images on plain backgrounds where the platform asks for them
- Custom labels for margin, top sellers or seasonality, so budget can follow profit
Merchant Center can disapprove products when the price or availability in the feed does not match your website. We check for mismatches before scaling spend.
How is ecommerce ad performance tracked?
Every platform needs to receive the purchase event and its order value, or bidding systems cannot tell a $20 order from a $400 one. We set up Google Tag and GA4 ecommerce events, the Meta Pixel with Conversions API, and check that order values match your store’s records.
- Confirm view item, add to cart, begin checkout and purchase events fire correctly
- Pass order value and currency in Canadian dollars
- Remove duplicate purchases caused by thank-you page reloads
- Compare platform-reported revenue with your store’s actual sales
We then report return on ad spend alongside product margins, because a high ROAS on low-margin items can still lose money.
Ecommerce ads for Surrey stores selling locally and across Canada
Some online stores also have a showroom, warehouse or pickup point, sometimes in industrial areas near Highway 10 or Fraser Highway. Campaigns can promote local pickup to shoppers in Surrey, Langley and Delta while shipping-focused campaigns target the rest of Canada.
Surrey’s multilingual market also matters for some product categories. Stores selling to South Asian shoppers, for example, may test Punjabi-language social ads and landing pages. We meet Lower Mainland store owners at our 152 Street office and work with ecommerce brands across Canada remotely.

How much does Ecommerce Advertising cost?
Cost depends on your ad spend, catalogue size, how many channels we run, the state of your product feed and tracking, and how much creative is needed. Ad spend goes directly to Google and Meta from your accounts, and our management fee is separate. Request a free analysis and we will explain what affects your quote.
Should my online store start with Google Shopping or Instagram ads?
If people already search for what you sell, Google Shopping is usually the first step because it catches existing demand. If your products are new, visual or impulse purchases, Facebook and Instagram ads can create demand. Many stores run both, with budget weighted toward whichever channel shows profitable sales.
Which ecommerce platforms do you work with?
We work with common store platforms such as Shopify and WooCommerce, as long as we can connect a product feed and install tracking for purchases. If your store uses another platform, tell us in the free analysis and we will check how its feed and conversion tracking can be connected.
How long until ecommerce ads become profitable?
It depends on your margins, average order value, conversion rate, competition, budget and tracking quality. Campaigns need time to collect purchase data before automated bidding works well. We cannot promise a date or a return, but we report revenue, ROAS and margin from the start so you can judge progress.
What is the difference between Ecommerce Advertising and Google Shopping Ads?
Google Shopping Ads is one channel focused on product listings in Google. Ecommerce Advertising is the multi-channel plan for an online store: Shopping, Performance Max, Facebook and Instagram catalogue ads and retargeting, managed together with one budget and one view of revenue.
Will I own my Merchant Center, ad accounts and catalogue?
Yes. Your Google Merchant Center, Google Ads account, Meta business portfolio and product catalogue should all belong to your business. You grant Vivid Marketing access to manage them, so your feed, audiences, conversion data and sales history stay with you if you ever change providers or bring advertising in-house.
