Asset Specifications (GD)

Although the Digital Marketing Graphic Design Team is capable of generating images of any size, below are the specifications for the most common types of assets the team creates for each department.

SEM


Display Ads [Examples]

Display advertising is a method of gaining attention on a website, social media platform, and other digital mediums. They are often image-based advertisements that encourage the viewer to click-through to a landing page.

Dynamic Remarketing Display Ads [Examples]

Dynamic remarketing display ads are similar to display ads, but the contents on the ads are generated dynamically, and tailored to each specific viewer. The remarketing part of these ads means that the contents shown on the ads have previously been viewed by the specific person. For instance, if a viewer was shopping for a Model X RV, the dynamic remarketing ad on a website will display a Model X RV, calling attention to the product once more.

Gmail Ads [Examples]

Gmail ads appear in a user’s inbox. They look like an email at first, but appear under the “promotions” tab. If a user clicks the ad, they are presented with the expanded ad, which often contains an image or even a gallery.

MA


Promotional / Events E-Newsletters [Examples]

Assets generated for the Marketing Automation team are ever-changing. In its simplest form, it can be described as a newsletter; however, there are many parts to the newsletter. A newsletter can contain many different sections, and thus many images. The only standard is the width of the newsletter, sitting at a maximum of 800 pixels wide. The length is up to the client, the Marketing Automation Representative, and the Digital Marketing Graphic Designer.

Size in pixels: Maximum width: 800 pixels

Nurture Track E-Newsletters [Examples]

Always waiting and listening for a trigger, these newsletters have the same look, feel, and format of its predecessor. Therefore, a Digital Marketing Graphic Designer must refer to past similar work for inspiration. Initially, the design isn’t set in stone. Once a design has been established, however, the Digital Marketing Graphic Designer will stick to the same layout through the lifecycle of a nurture track.
