0:04
so there are many strategies uh that you
0:07
could choose from in terms of optimizing
0:09
your Facebook campaigns I know that a
0:13
lot of times it’s better to look at the
0:17
data um often you w to you want to see
0:20
which of your adets are producing uh
0:24
better kpis initially and and sometimes
0:27
it’s even better to start with a lower
0:29
budget if you like to um Reserve more of
0:33
your budget for the adsets that are
0:35
performing but uh you know a quick way
0:38
to do this is to go into the reporting
0:41
feature for Facebook ads and take a look
0:44
at the different adsets within your
0:46
campaign you want to look at some of the
0:49
the kpis that are initially coming
0:51
through uh for instance you want to look
0:54
at your link clickthrough rate uh the
0:57
CTR that’s important because it tells
1:00
you whether or not people are interested
1:03
and if you don’t have a very high
1:05
click-through rate um usually that’ll
1:08
indicate that there’s an issue either
1:09
with the ad copy itself or with your
1:12
audience that you’re targeting because
1:14
you’re not you’re not uh engaging enough
1:16
and they don’t really they don’t really
1:18
care to see what’s on the landing page
1:21
by clicking through onto that link so um
1:24
your CTR is going to be important um I
1:27
know that another important thing is
1:29
your cost per click if you’re getting if
1:32
you’re getting really high costs per
1:34
click um in your Facebook campaigns then
1:37
that could indicate an issue with the
1:40
audience as well because if you have too
1:43
broad of an audience and Facebook is
1:46
having to work really hard to get your
1:48
ad out in front of people um the cost
1:51
per click can go up pretty high because
1:53
you’re just in more of a competitive uh
1:56
skatee um or or competitive environment
2:00
because you’re targeting such a broad
2:02
audience so that could indicate that you
2:04
need to kind of narrow it down a little
2:06
bit more um and then as far as the uh
2:11
images go that you’re using you
2:14
definitely want to see if people are
2:17
clicking on the ad itself and trying to
2:20
interact with the ad at all um whether
2:22
that be through comments uh or whether
2:25
you know whether you get people that are
2:28
you know loving or are reacting to the
2:30
ad liking the ad those things are
2:33
important to see you know how engaging
2:35
it is and if you’re if your image is not
2:39
stopping the scroll or if your ad copy
2:41
is not stopping the scroll then you’re
2:43
not going to get any clicks um so that
2:46
could also indicate an issue with your
2:47
creative um I know that a lot of people
2:50
prefer to Just Launch a whole group of
2:54
different ads with different ad copy
2:57
different images but one of the way ways
3:00
to quickly optimize that I found is to
3:03
um to use the same ad copy for like
3:07
three or four different ad sets and then
3:10
use different creative between those
3:13
different adets to
3:15
see to see which creative is going to
3:18
perform the best because usually the
3:21
picture or the video that you’re using
3:24
is going to be the number one factor on
3:26
whether your ads perform or not and then
3:29
once you figure out what the winning
3:30
creative is then you can go and move
3:33
forward and test additional ad copy and
3:35
try to find you a winning combination
3:37
with your ad copy so I would recommend
3:39
always testing your creative first and
3:42
also
3:43
um experiment with different you know
3:46
different types of creative whether it’s
3:48
video um whether it’s images uh there’s
3:53
some really cool ways to create AI
3:56
images now so um there there’s um a lot
4:00
of opportunity out there to get some
4:01
really interesting videos and um and
4:04
images and test them out in your
4:08
campaigns
