What Do You Guys Consider One "Campaign"?

Hi fellas

Just a noob question of mine about the definition of a "campaign".

Say I want to promote XYZ and I know it's best suited for men 18-34 living in the US who like major sports like soccer, baseball, basketball, etc on Facebook.

Now, I know I will have to split this demographic into smaller sets such as:

US - M - 18-24 - Soccer
US - M - 25-34 - Soccer
US - M - 18-24 - Baseball
US - M - 25-34 - Baseball
US - M - 18-24 - Basketball
US - M - 25-34 - Basketball
...

My question is, do you guys consider each combination from the subsets listed above "one campaign" (in that case, we will have 6 campaigns here)? Or do you call everything that aim to promote XYZ as one campaign (in this case, we will only have 1 campaign promoting XYZ)?

I know it sounds n00bish but just want to make sure that we're speaking the same language!

Cheers!

Everyone has their own definition.

My person way would be.

Promoting XYZ = the campaign
Soccer / baseball / basketball = the angles
18-24,25-34, etc. = the targeting tests

Thanks Charles for your answer. Much appreciated

It's such a broad term.

I agree with Charles. Though, say for Facebook, soccer, baseball, basketball interests could all be targeting tests too if using the same angle in the ads - so really it's just up to you how you define things.

To use Facebook as an example again, the highest level grouping of ads is a campaign - and you might make one of these for each targeting test. Now you have a campaign to contain a single targeting test of one angle for your other campaign, which may be your Facebook campaign amongst your many campaigns for offer X. Campaignception?

It's really not worth defining explicitly ;D

The same as the dr but since I'm not running fb/pof or any source with that kind of targeting options, let's say you run on mobile, I consider a campaign a launch with several angles (ads/LPs). If one of them work out I consider it optimization from then on. If none of them work out, and I use even the same offer, I consider it a separate campaign.

i usually subscribe to vertical+traffic source=campaign

I was puzzled by this as well.

But what these super duper affiliates consider one campaign is one offer.

I actually run just 3 offers aka "campaigns" myself and generate six figures a month revenue from just those 3, and they are low payout offers. Mobile CPI.

I wonder how much rev I'll push once my nutra product is done
