7 TOP MISTAKES YOU NEED TO AVOID BEFORE RUNNING A FACEBOOK AD If you really want to succeed online one of skill you need to learn is how to run a successful Facebook Advert that is if you already have a Facebook Business Page for either your online or offline business Below are 7 Mistakes you need to avoid when starting your Facebook Ad Campaign 1: Not doing Your Homework Before Hopping on Facebook 2: Leaving your Placement as Automatic instead of Manual Bidding 3: Using Manual Bidding Instead of Automatic Bidding 4: Trying to scale up Fast with a New Account 5: Poor Advert Message or Ad Content or copy 6 Poor Image or Video 7 Poor Targeting 1 ✅ NOT DOING YOUR HOME WORK PROPERLY BEFORE HOPPING ON FACEBOOK 1) What is Your Objective 2)What Audience are you trying to reach 3)How do you intend to reach them 4)What type of Objective Facebook Campaign Do you want to run Robert G Allen the author of "Multiple Streams of Income" That is what a Fisherman does He has bait but he will search every where to get where there are lot of fishes where he can place his hook to get more fishes Said before starting your online marketing campaign Your first goal shouldn't be about your products and services you want to promote 80% of your Ad set and time is to find where those your customer to be are So before I start my Campaign I spend more Time on how I can get my target audience 2 ✅ LEAVING PLACEMENTS AS AUTOMATIC INSTEAD OF EDITTING YOUR PLACEMENT TO MANUAL When you want to run your Facebook Ad ensure you don't put it on Automatic rather Click on Edit Placement so that your Ad don't show on all platform thereby making you to spend more money and targeting unecessary audience So make sure you uncheck Instagram,Audience Network, Instant Articles, Instream Videos_ e.t.c You need to Click on Edit Placement so as to direct your Ad only to Facebook Feed And on Mobile and not Desktop Most people uses mobile more than desktop to surf the internet 3 ✅ USING MANUAL BIDDING INSTEAD OF AUTOMATIC BIDDING Facebook will suggest you to leave your Ad campaign on automatic but due to most people's inexperience they will want to minimize cost by trying to click manual which is not good for your Advert 4 ✅ TRYING TO SCALE UP FAST WITH A NEW ACCOUNT Scaling up is a terminology used in Digital Marketing when trying to increase your ad spent/budget while running an high performing Facebook Ad campaign. My advise is don't increase your ad budget too early such as trying to increase from $3 to $30 so as to get more result or else you will be tagged by Facebook as a scammer and your Facebook page might be flagged or banned Imagine running a Facebook ad of about $80 to make $4,000 worth of sales This made me now to begin to learn and even pay for online courses on how to run FBK Ad at minimal cost and get higher returns 5 ✅ POOR ADVERT MESSAGE Your advert copy or ad content people see is very important. How you write,form or make up your advert content on your post is a key to how your ad will engage,get good response and succeed Their are about 5 types Fail Proof Ad copies that you need to learn before getting your FBK ad set up Your First Sentence, Your Headline,Your Call To Action,The Body of your Ad content are some of the 3 Top elements you ought to be serious about if you want to run FB ads that win big E.g these two titles on health Weight Loss Niche can give you different cost per engagement 1: Discover how to lose 10kg in 2weeks ($ 0.15 per click 2: Every nite,I cried myself to sleep....I was too fat ($0.01 per click) These two headlines are for the same Advert One cost more per click and one cost less.. The second cost lesser because it was more emotional and filled with suspense Their is a basic human psychology to online marketing 6 ✅POOR IMAGE OR VIDEO What catches most people's attention on Social Media is Images and even Videos are more engaging especially on Facebook and Instagram It is often said 1 Picture can speak 1000 language than text The type of your image/video/info graphics are very important Images that are wide,colorful, thought provoking,attention grabbing with little or no text performs better on Facebook ad I will share some images and videos I have used for advert that got more result So watch what kind of images and videos you use for ad I do more of videos for Page Post because they are more engaging because people respond well more 7 ✅ POOR TARGETING Noting is going to work if you end up targeting the wrong set of people Their are different types of targeting We have Broad Medium and Narrow Targeting Example if you are running an ad that has to do with business If you Click the *Interest* and checked BUSINESS your Targeting will be too broad If you checked DANGOTE your Targeting might be Medium But if you clicked or picked BUSINESS MAGAZINE Your Targeting will be more narrow,specific and more better It is better to target 150,000 specific people on your Advert than targeting 1,500,000 Audience on Facebook You can target people more on their Demographics,Location, Age,Online Behavior,Type of Employment, Level of Education Their are still more powerful tools to get better Targeting for your business,products & services So in summary if you have poor Targeting you will just be dashing Facebook your money P.S: To get a Free EBook on "The Ultimate Guide to get Effective Interest Targeting For Profitable Facebook Ad Campaign CLICK THE LINK IN MY PROFILE TO DOWNLOAD 1 Like
