Facebook Ads: Cheap and Powerful
• Some of the BEST demographic and psychographic data on the planet
• A fraction of the cost vs. Google AdWords or Bing Ads (Yes, I said Bing)
• Huge audience• Grandmas and nieces
@cedorris
First Thing To Remember:
• Don’t use “Boost Post” button• Limited Targeting Options• Easy to use, limited results
@cedorris
Use Facebook Ad Manager
• Facebook.com/business -> Click “Create Ad”• Chose your objective
• Facebook has an excellent guide for choosing the right objective
@cedorris
Favor Boosting over Promoting
• Promoting a page buys likes – this isn’t really what we want• Boosting a post gets people to engage with your content• People who engage with your content will convert to Likes AND
are more likely to engage with your content in the future. Facebook’s algorithm rewards you for this.
