Insights

Detailed observation of presented data

Executive summary

This analysis looks at cost-per-thousand-impressions (CPM) trends for industry Wine and Spirits and target country Norway compared to the global trend. The analysis is based on $3B worth of advertising data from our dataset, which provides strong directional benchmarks. For the period provided (Oct 2024–Sep 2025), no in-market CPM data points were available for the selected segment, so the comparison relies on the global baseline. The global trend shows a pronounced Q4 peak, a January low, and relatively stable CPMs across the rest of the year. Overall volatility is moderate, with average month-to-month moves of about $1.60 (~8%).

Selected segment highlights

  • No monthly CPM values were available for Wine and Spirits in Norway in the timeframe provided.
  • Because of this, averages, highs/lows, month-to-month changes, and seasonal patterns for the selected segment cannot be computed.

Comparative positioning vs. global

  • With no selected segment data, relative positioning (above market, below average, or in line with overall trends) cannot be determined.
  • As context, the global baseline indicates:
  • Seasonal uplift in Q4, peaking in November
  • A consistent January dip
  • A generally stable band around $18–$20 for most of the year

Seasonal patterns and volatility

  • Seasonality: CPMs typically increase in Q4 around holiday periods, with a marked November peak; December cools from the peak but remains elevated versus the annual low.
  • Volatility: The baseline’s average month-to-month change of about $1.60 suggests moderate fluctuations, with the largest swings concentrated around the Q4 peak and post-holiday reset.

Understanding the Data

Insights & analysis of Facebook advertising costs

Cost Per Mille (CPM) is the cost advertisers pay for 1,000 impressions of their Facebook ad. In the Wine and Spirits industry, Facebook ad costs can be influenced by seasonal trends and market competition. For campaigns targeting Norway, advertisers should consider local market factors and user behavior. Different campaign objectives lead to varying costs based on how Facebook optimizes for your specific goals. The data shown represents median values across multiple campaigns, and individual results may vary based on ad quality, audience targeting, and campaign optimization.

Why we use median instead of average

We use the median CTR because the underlying distribution of click-through rates is highly skewed, with a small share of campaigns achieving extremely high CTRs. These outliers can inflate a simple average, making it less representative of what most advertisers actually experience. By using the median—which sits at the midpoint of all campaigns—we provide a more rigorous and realistic benchmark that reflects the true underlying data model and helps you set attainable performance expectations.

Key Factors Affecting Facebook Ad Costs

  • Competition within your selected industry and audience demographics
  • Ad quality and relevance score – higher quality ads can lower costs
  • Campaign objective and bid strategy
  • Timing and seasonality – costs often increase during holiday periods
  • Ad placement (News Feed, Instagram, Audience Network, etc.)

Note: This data represents industry median values and benchmarks. Your actual costs may vary based on specific targeting, ad creative quality, and campaign optimization.

Potential Advertising Impact

CPM and CPC could rise during Easter and Ascension when Norwegians travel or spend time on leisure. Constitution Day (May 17) is widely celebrated—media activity may increase and ad competition could intensify. Most public holidays result in shop closures; ad inventory may shrink during holidays. Pentecost weekend may reduce weekday competition.

What affects CPM rates on Facebook Ads?

CPMs are heavily influenced by competition, seasonality (e.g., Q4 costs more), audience size, and ad quality. Smaller audiences and lower relevance scores often lead to higher CPMs.

Why does my CPM vary so much between campaigns?

Different campaign objectives, bidding strategies, and even time of day can change your CPM. For example, conversion campaigns usually have higher CPMs than traffic ones. Also, broad targeting tends to drive lower CPMs.

What's a competitive CPM for 2025?

In most industries, CPMs range from $5 to $18 depending on the region and objective. Retail and e-comm campaigns often sit at the higher end. Our live data above shows a breakdown by country and industry.

Does audience size or targeting affect CPM more?

Both matter, but audience quality (intent + match with your offer) usually has more impact than pure size. However, extremely tight audiences often lead to expensive CPMs due to limited delivery opportunities.

Should I worry more about CPM or CPC?

Depends on your goal. For awareness, CPM is more relevant. For performance campaigns, CPC and CPA matter more. But all are connected—inefficient CPMs can inflate your entire funnel.
