You provide something called a \u2018seed audience\u2019 \u2013&nbsp; which is usually a list of your current audience \u2013 then Facebook creates a new audience from their own database with the same characteristics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And detailed targeting works in a similar way, except you enter the characteristics yourself.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ad-set-decide-your-budget-and-schedule-nbsp-nbsp-nbsp\">Ad set \u2013 decide your budget and schedule&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Setting the budget and scheduling for your campaign are crucial steps and they relate closely to each other. The schedule of your campaign directly affects how you spend your budget.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, when you first set up a campaign, you decide if your budget will be used as an average daily spend (daily budget) or over the whole duration of your campaign (lifetime budget).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So depending on the length of your campaign, you may choose to do one type over another.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you were doing a six month-long campaign, you might choose to spend \u00a35,000 in total, and use the lifetime budget to spread the spend equally over the six month period.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But if you were doing a month-long campaign \u2013 having a daily spend might be better as you\u2019d have more control over your budget.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ad-the-finishing-touches-to-your-advert-nbsp\">Ad \u2013 the finishing touches to your advert&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is where you\u2019ll import your advert and apply the finishing touches before it\u2019s sent out into the world. You can upload adverts in a variety of ways, like a:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\">single image, carousel, or animation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\">short-form video&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\">collection of your products&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019ll need to add a headline, supporting text, and a call to action button with an active phrase like \u2018buy now\u2019 or \u2018sale ending soon\u2019 to encourage people to click the advert.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then you can set up the tracking of your ad, preview how your advert will look, and publish it when you\u2019re happy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-azure-200-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-30c80bf8 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-radius:35px;margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--90);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--90);padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--90);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--90);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--90);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--90)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-facebook-ads-manager-vs-boosted-posts-what-s-the-difference\">Facebook Ads Manager vs boosted posts \u2013 what\u2019s the difference?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Boosted posts on Facebook are quite different to ones made with Facebook Ad Manager.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Boosted posts let you put some money behind a post you\u2019ve already made and make it appear in more people\u2019s feeds. It\u2019s a much simpler tool than the campaigns in Facebook Ad Manager.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a boosted post, you can only target people based on simple things like location, age, gender, and some broad interests. And you only get basic analytics in terms of performance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Facebook Ads Manager is a complex tool that offers a huge variety of detail and customisation when targeting potential customers, plus in-depth performance data.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tracking-facebook-ad-performance\"><strong>Tracking Facebook ad performance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The detail of analysis on Facebook Ad Manager is one of its most useful features. There are a few standard columns that help you track your campaign:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>results \u2013<\/strong> the number of times your ad achieved its desired outcome (based on your campaign objective)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>reach&nbsp;and impressions \u2013 <\/strong>how many unique people saw your ads (impressions can be higher than reach if the same person sees your ad multiple times)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>cost per result \u2013<\/strong> the average cost to achieve one result based on your objective, like clicking through to your website&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>amount spent \u2013<\/strong> the total amount of money you&#8217;ve spent on the campaign<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>schedule \u2013 <\/strong>how long your campaign is set to run<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>delivery \u2013<\/strong> whether your campaign is active, in review, or has ended&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But there\u2019s also more specific metrics that can help you understand the details of how your ad is performing:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>click-through rate (CTR) \u2013<\/strong> the percentage of people who saw your ad and clicked on it. A higher CTR generally indicates a more relevant and engaging ad<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>cost per click \u2013<\/strong> the average cost for each click on your ad&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>return on ad spend (ROAS) \u2013<\/strong> a metric that helps you understand the effectiveness of your campaign by calculating your revenue against your total ad spend&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once your campaign has been running long enough, you\u2019ll be able to use these metrics to understand how effective your ad is. Then you can adjust your campaign based on these results.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, if your advert has a high CTR but low conversions, you know that your ad is engaging enough for people to click through but something on your landing page isn\u2019t resonating with your audience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Or your impressions are high but your CTR is low, you\u2019d know that your ad isn\u2019t engaging the audience you\u2019re targeting.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-retargeting-and-lookalike-audiences\"><strong>Retargeting and lookalike audiences<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Retargeting and lookalike audiences become more effective tools once your campaign has run for a little while and there\u2019s more data on who\u2019s engaging with your ad.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Retargeting is when you send your ad to people who\u2019ve already engaged with your business in some way. Whether that\u2019s by clicking on your ad but not purchasing, or liking your business\u2019s Facebook page, retargeting focuses on those with an awareness of your business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some businesses have a lot of success with retargeting by reducing the reach of their ad and increasing the focus on those who\u2019ve shown an interest.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And it\u2019s similar with lookalike audiences. Once you\u2019ve got enough data to know who\u2019s engaging with your business, your lookalike audiences will become more accurate. This is because Facebook\u2019s algorithm learns the characteristics of your target audience and expands its reach to more new users.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"nba-body-001\">\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-do-facebook-ads-work\">Do Facebook ads work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Facebook ads can work really well if you have an engaging campaign, a specific target audience, and clear objectives. Because of the huge number of users on Meta\u2019s database, the potential for success is massive.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But setting up a campaign to run for six months and checking back occasionally to see how it\u2019s performing isn\u2019t the best strategy. The most effective campaigns are usually the ones that use retargeting and lookalike audiences, with tweaks made based on performance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-much-does-it-cost-to-advertise-on-facebook\"><strong>How much does it cost to advertise on Facebook?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the type of campaign you\u2019re running, the amount it costs to advertise on Facebook can vary significantly.
