Context

How Frequency actually behaves in logistics & supply chain

Frequency is the early warning system for ad fatigue. CTR and conversion drop sharply as frequency rises beyond 6–8 per week — same audience, same creative, less response. The fix is creative refresh: introduce 5–10 new variants weekly to keep audience seeing fresh content. For retargeting, frequency cap at 4–6 per day prevents harassment that hurts brand. Track frequency per audience segment, not just account-wide.

For logistics & supply chain specifically, Frequency is influenced most by these 4 primary channels — each shifts the metric in a different way: LinkedIn Ads (b2b + saas demand-gen with abm-grade targeting.); SEO Services (compounding organic growth — pillar/cluster, programmatic, and ai-engine-cited.); Content Marketing (editorial + programmatic — built to be cited by ai engines.); Google Ads (search, shopping, youtube, and performance max — engineered for indian unit econ).
