They give brands a way to reach customers while they\u2019re researching products and services, comparing options and making decisions in ChatGPT.<br><br>OpenAI has stated that advertising doesn&#8217;t influence the answers ChatGPT generates.<br><br><strong>Are ChatGPT Ads available in Europe?<\/strong><br>OpenAI is expanding ChatGPT Ads across European markets, with availability varying by country as the product rolls out.<br><br>DEPT\u00ae can help your brand understand what\u2019s currently available, where the opportunity is strongest and how to approach an initial activation.<br><br><strong>Has DEPT\u00ae already run ChatGPT Ads?<\/strong><br>Yes. DEPT\u00ae helped global brands, including Lumen Technologies, participate in OpenAI\u2019s early US ChatGPT Ads pilot.<br><br>That gave our teams direct experience with the platform, campaign formats and emerging opportunities before its wider international expansion.<br><br><strong>How are ChatGPT Ads different from search or social advertising?<\/strong><br>ChatGPT is a conversational environment, which can reveal more context about what customers are trying to find, compare, or accomplish.<br><br>That creates different signals around intent and consideration\u2014and changes how brands should think about audience strategy, creative, messaging, and measurement.<br><strong><br>What\u2019s included in a ChatGPT Ads pilot?<\/strong><br>A pilot can include strategy, audience and intent planning, campaign setup, media activation, creative, measurement, optimisation, and post-campaign analysis.<br><br>DEPT\u00ae can also identify how campaign learnings could inform your wider AI search, GEO, and digital discovery strategy.<br><br><strong>What\u2019s the difference between ChatGPT Ads and GEO?<\/strong><br>ChatGPT Ads are a paid way for your brand to appear within the ChatGPT experience. Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) focuses on improving how your brand is discovered, understood, and represented organically across AI-powered platforms.<br><br>DEPT\u00ae works across both paid and organic AI discovery, helping brands connect insights across the wider customer journey.<br><br><strong>Will advertising on ChatGPT improve my organic visibility?<\/strong><br>Not necessarily. Paid advertising does not influence ChatGPT\u2019s organic answers.<br><br>However, campaign insights\u2014including customer questions, intent and the messages that drive engagement\u2014can help shape your content, search and GEO strategy across ChatGPT and other AI platforms.<br><br><strong>Is ChatGPT Ads right for my brand?<\/strong><br>That\u2019s exactly what a focused pilot should help determine.<br>DEPT\u00ae can assess where conversational AI fits into your customers\u2019 decision journey, identify the most relevant opportunities to test and measure whether ChatGPT Ads can add incremental value to your media mix.<br><br><strong>What has DEPT\u00ae learned from running ChatGPT Ads?<\/strong><br>One of our biggest learnings is that ChatGPT shouldn&#8217;t simply be treated as another search or social placement.<br><br>The conversational environment provides different signals about what someone is trying to achieve. That changes how we think about intent, creative, propositions, and measurement.<br><br>We also saw the advertising product evolve during early testing, reinforcing the importance of experimentation and learning while the channel develops. <\/p><\/div>\n\t\n\t<\/div>\n\n<div\n\tclass=\"block-feature-turntable js-block-feature-turntable\"\n\tdata-show-dots=\"true\"\n\tdata-show-arrows=\"false\"\n\t\tdata-nav-aria-label=\"Item %d\"\n\t\tdata-nav-aria-active-label=\"Item %d (active)\"\n>\n\t<div class=\"block-feature-turntable__viewport js-block-feature-turntable-viewport\">\n\t\t<div class=\"block-feature-turntable__slide-container js-block-feature-turntable-slide-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":200,"featured_media":4451640,"parent":4245027,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"es_utils_meta_schema":"","dept_alt_featured_image":[],"dept_algolia_noindex":false,"dept_algolia_featured":false,"member_job_title":"","member_linkedin_url":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-4451672","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"dept_is_3q_page":false},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>ChatGPT Ads - Test &amp; launch paid AI discovery - DEPT\u00ae - DEPT\u00ae<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Test ChatGPT Ads with DEPT\u00ae.
