Maximizing Facebook Advertising: A Beginner's Guide

May 29, 20232 min read

If you're a marketer, you're aware of Facebook, but are you using Facebook advertising to its full potential? Facebook advertising can be a game-changer for your business, but you need to know how to make the most of it.

Facebook is an incredibly powerful platform for advertising because of its reach. With nearly 3 billion active users, that’s a vast audience that can see your ads.

However, you need to target the right people to achieve success. Facebook has the advantage of detailed targeting that is almost unparalleled. It knows so much about its users, which helps advertisers reach the right people with the right message. This ability to target specific groups of people draws in nearly 10 million active advertisers and earns Facebook $28.6 billion per quarter.

The following are types of businesses that are likely to succeed with Facebook advertising.

Businesses With Low-Friction Conversions

Businesses that succeed with Facebook ads ask users to sign up, not to buy. If you’re relying on them to immediately buy something to make your ad ROI positive, you will fail. Instead, stick to simple conversions like signing up for your service, filling out a short lead form, or submitting an email address. Daily deal sites like Groupon, AppSumo, and Fab are good examples of businesses that can succeed with Facebook advertising.

Business Models With Long Sales Cycle or Small Purchases

The best business model that fits Facebook ads earns revenue from their users over time, not all at once. Several smaller purchases are ideal. Subscription sites are great examples of business models that can thrive on Facebook.

So, how do Facebook ads work?

Facebook ads now come in several varieties. You can promote your Page, posts on your Page, actions users took, or your website itself. There are also several ad formats including images, videos, carousel (multiple images), Instant Experiences, and collections.

Facebook ads are targeted to users based on their location, demographic, and profile information. After creating an ad, you set a budget and bid for each click or thousand impressions that your ad will receive. Users then see your ads in the sidebar on Facebook or in their newsfeed.

As marketers, our main goal is generally to drive traffic to our own websites. Building your Facebook presence is great, but when you bring someone to your website, you control the medium, and this gives you the best chance of converting on your goals.

We are platform agnostic and strategically work to connect our clients with their ideal clients on GOOGLE, FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAM, LINKEDIN, SNAPCHAT, and other platforms.
