Awareness- Consideration- Decision:

Before defining a campaign objective, you need to take into consideration the concepts of awareness, consideration and decision. For example, if you are launching a new product, it is recommended starting with brand awareness or reach campaign. These campaigns are relatively cheap and can enhance brand visibility and reach. Then, as you move down the funnel, choose one of the consideration objectives, such as website traffic, engagement and app install. Finally, you may test a conversion campaign using re-marketing techniques.
