- again consider your target market and regions you are attempting to reach\n
- the graphics can replicate a post or event\n- languages require consideration of translation\n
- the analytics are less than LinkedIn sharing details about new friends and likes\n- the cost of ads are almost on par to google ads\n- however, weekly budgets must be tracked individually and turned off\n
-What are your going to be asking your customers to do? Do you need a form to collect data? Want them to click on a phone number?\n-Consider having a landing page instead of directing traffic to the website. Increases your quality score for Google AdWords,Facebook landing pages can be custom-made.\n-Make sure you are targeting using wording that relates from the ads to the website/landing page.\n
- this page is on the internet used as landing page from Google AdWords\n- strong call to action “Let’s Get Started”\n- list products and services\n- recognizable brand\n
-You can create a worksheet similar in this exercise to help you determine if a campaign is worthy of your time\n- The profit per sale is what you make upon making a sale after a conversion\n- CPC is your ability to control the amount spent through Google\n- CTR of .002 is the minimum you should accept before pausing a campaign and changing the headlines. The higher the CTR the cheaper your CPC or cost per click.\n- Impressions (50,000) give you prospects (100), with the .15 per click this gives you an understanding of your budget total of $15.00\n
