3 Tips for Successful Facebook Ads

Are you considering advertising on Facebook or are you already doing so? Then these three tips that will help your advertising campaigns to be more successful.

Tip One:

Facebook is not primarily an advertising sales platform. I know the managers of Facebook have heavily promoted it as one of the top online advertising platforms out there. And, in many ways, they are correct. It has a fabulously rich marketing database.

So, what do I mean by this statement, that Facebook is not primarily an advertising sales platform?

What I mean is that people's intention for being there is not to buy. We're on Facebook to be social. To share silly pictures or find out what our friends are doing, etc. If we want to buy something, we will go to websites such as eBay or Amazon or Etsy.

What this means for you as an advertiser, is that if you try to sell on Facebook right out of the gate, you will fail. Why? Because there is an instant disconnect between why someone is there on Facebook, and what you are doing.

The way around this problem is for you to give. You have to promote something that gives value to the people who will see your advertisement. In short, you are using Facebook advertising to build a relationship. And, what you're hoping is that further down the road of that relationship, sales will be made.

Tip Two:

What Is People-Based Marketing?

Marketing is all about reaching people and all marketers want to find out how to reach the greatest amount of people with the smallest amount of effort. This often means sending the same generic message to hundreds, if not thousands, or people. However, everyone is unique and therefore has unique needs. What is relevant to one person might not be relevant to the next. It’s hard to be that brand that appeals to everyone since each person is so different. This is where people-based marketing comes in.
