"Developers and tech execs don’t click on ads” is a myth that was created by people who don’t want you to succeed in advertising.
In fact, advertising is one of the key growth drivers for the vast majority of the largest devtool companies in the world, both in the product-led and sales-led motions.
So how do you get results through advertising with a technical audience?
You need to create great ads, and then target them to the right sub-sections of your audience.
Sounds simple, doesn’t it?
Marketing teams, however, often make the following mistakes when running paid marketing programs:
Are you experiencing these issues? We can help.
We work with technical software companies to cover the following ad platforms:
Each of the platforms has its own specifics when it comes to advertising to technical audiences, but for all platforms we follow these practices:
We audit your existing ad accounts to understand where you are currently at and where the opportunities may be. We also talk to your team members to understand if there are any issues that are important to address that the ad accounts are not showing, such as lead quality or low average customer value.
While sometimes opportunity is in adjusting settings in ad platforms to, for example, waste less ad spend on irrelevant audiences or device types, very often the performance is due to a misunderstood or misdiagnosed marketing or advertising problem.
Once we address the core problem, the metrics start moving in the right direction.
Most marketers and agencies underestimate the amount of effort that it takes to reach next levels of advertising performance.
We maintain focus on solving your specific advertising challenges and deliver towards that goal on a consistent basis.
Our background as a content marketing agency lets us produce creative and copy that is a much better fit for a technical audience than what most organisations are doing today.
We bring a robust and fast-paced process for copywriting and creative design, and our copywriting and design teams are there to deliver alongside marketing strategists and performance marketing managers.
We invest time in getting the right data and building reports, as well as making sure that there is full alignment between us and the client on what the numbers mean.
Brandon and Oleksii at Wizard on Demand helped us revamp our Google Ads strategy. They created relevant and technical ads which were appealing for our technical audience and generated MQLs and an SQL as well during the first 6-8 weeks.

Oleksii and the Wizard on Demand team just get developers. They know how to build ad creative that actually speaks to engineering teams instead of marketing to them, which makes a big difference in performance and credibility.
