Creating a Facebook Ad for ALL users is like shooting for the stars.
And not getting anything out of it.
So you’ve been told to put your business on Facebook. You were also told to explore Facebook Ads (or even Google Ads), saying it would generate you the leads you need for your business. You probably would have spent hours researching on the internet about ways on how to get your business known in the digital world.
A common miss is not focusing enough time and energy in deciding which audience you want your ads to target. While it seems ideal to target everyone, like all who see the ads, it lessens the possibility of getting the leads that matter to your business by a great deal. With a limited budget for ads, your focus should be on getting the ads seen by leads that can convert to sales.
But how do you know which audience to target? Check on the basics below to understand how you can jumpstart your business online with Facebook ads.
Basic Target Audience types:
-
- Custom audiences
These are users you have previously engaged with. These are the people that are already in your directory and could be the very same set of people who are on the lookout for updates about your business. You may retarget users who viewed your services but did not book an appointment.
- Custom audiences
-
- Lookalike audiences
