Meta has not announced any specific metaverse ad features. Patent applications hint at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/meta-patent-lets-companies-sponsor-metaverse-objects-report-2022-1?r=metaverse-marketing-lp&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=yahoo.com\" data-analytics-module=\"body_link\">virtual stores<\/a> being a big part of its business, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/facebook-meta-commerce-shopping-metaverse-priorities-2021-12\" data-analytics-module=\"body_link\">internal documents indicate<\/a> that Meta does not plan to invest heavily for some time.<br \/>One ad exec predicted that Meta would focus on lighter fare at this meeting, like VR lenses in Instagram Stories, and that with Meta&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/markets.businessinsider.com\/news\/currencies\/facebook-meta-diem-libra-stablecoin-project-repay-investors-cryptocurrency-2022-1\" data-analytics-module=\"body_link\">decision to end its crypto business<\/a>, it&rsquo;s unlikely to emphasize NFTs for now. A Meta spokeswoman said the meeting was an opportunity for the execs to ask questions and for Meta to suggest small steps their clients could take to enter virtual worlds.<br \/>Sources said Meta has already begun directly pitching big <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/inside-marketing-and-advertising-in-the-metaverse-2022-1\" data-analytics-module=\"body_link\">advertisers on the metaverse<\/a>, promising to help them establish a virtual presence for free in exchange for a minimum ad spend commitment. This is similar to how it&rsquo;s worked with brands on non-paid activity in the past, by asking them to create Facebook Pages or ecommerce Shops, for example.<br \/>Meta&rsquo;s new pitch is likely to meet a skeptical audience, given Facebook&rsquo;s history of hosting content that&rsquo;s risky for brands.<br \/>The ad industry continues to press Meta for more control over where brands&rsquo; ads appear in Newsfeed, and it&rsquo;s harder to moderate content in the visually-oriented metaverse than on text-based platforms like Newsfeed, said Kieley Taylor, global head of partnerships at GroupM. Reports of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/12\/30\/technology\/metaverse-harassment-assaults.html\" data-analytics-module=\"body_link\">harassment and assault in VR settings<\/a> have already surfaced around the world.<br \/>\u00ab\u00a0If you think social media can be risky for brand safety, wait until you build your own virtual world that&rsquo;s open to everyone,\u00a0\u00bb said Alexander Rea, global director of creative and technology at Omnicom design firm Critical Mass. \u00ab\u00a0The deeper down the rabbit hole you go, the more you as a company need to be comfortable with the risk.\u00a0\u00bb<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/facebook-metaverse-nft-advertising-opportunity-2021-10\" data-analytics-module=\"body_link\">CMOs feel an expectation to explore the metaverse<\/a>, even if they see its real-world applications as largely speculative. Agency execs said they are advising marketers to watch metaverse trends, but proceed with caution.<br \/>\u00ab\u00a0This is the pay-attention phase, but I wouldn&rsquo;t go running,\u00a0\u00bb said Taylor. \u00ab\u00a0Will they continue to move fast and break things?\u00a0\u00bb<br \/>Rea said advertisers looking for opportunities in the metaverse are more likely to work with companies like Fortnite maker                                                   <span class=\"component rich-tooltip reference-autolinker no-help\" data-component-type=\"reference-autolinker\">                           <a data-site=\"bi\" data-keyword=\"Epic Games\" data-analytics-product-module=\"Auto-Linker\" data-analytics-product-area=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/what-is-epic-games\" data-analytics-module=\"body_link\">Epic Games<\/a>                           <span style=\"font-size: 0px\"><\/span>                         <\/span> and Roblox Corporation, which have already turned their established virtual communities into big revenue sources.<br \/>Another exec said while brands may just be experimenting with the metaverse, or Web3 activity, for now, that may change.<br \/>\u00ab\u00a0TikTok was stunty two years ago, and now it&rsquo;s a part of everyone&rsquo;s media plans,\u00a0\u00bb the exec said.<br \/>                               Keep reading                             <br \/>                             For you                           <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/facebook-parent-meta-to-make-its-metaverse-pitch-advertisers-react-2022-1\">source<\/a><\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A leading-edge research firm focused on digital transformation.
