style=\"font-weight: 400;\">E-commerce businesses often benefit from using both platforms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google can capture users who are already searching for products.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facebook can create demand through visual advertising, product discovery, promotions, and retargeting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Google:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> User searches for &#8220;buy running shoes online.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Facebook:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> User discovers a new running shoe brand through a video or product advertisement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This creates two different customer acquisition opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For many D2C brands, Meta can be particularly useful for
