of the sale?

Crafting a Good Ad in Facebook
Tailor Ad Copy and Images to the Platform
Facebook is used for sharingwith family, friends, and community.
It lacks the intent of the search engines, but the reach is immense.
You must grab people from their social browsing.
What would grab your attention?

Crafting a Good Ad in Facebook
It starts with…..Images!
Introduce your brand in the image.
Avoid stock images if at all possible. Users can spot them a mile away.
31
Crafting a Good Ad In Facebook…Cont.
Match the ad format to your
strategy:
Remarketing
• Use the carousel ad format
• Tie it to a product feed for
hyper relevance.
Brand Awareness
• Try the single image format
• Introduce your brand with a
big and bold image that
creates interest.
32
Quality Score

34
Strive For 5
A quality score of 5+ means you get a
discount on clicks.

Quality Score in Facebook?
They Call it Relevance!
What does relevance mean in Facebook?
Similar to Adword’s quality score, it attempts to measure audience response.
Calculated after you achieve 500 or more impressions on a score of 1-10.
How to use it?
Higher relevancy score can lead to more impressions and cheaper CPC’s.
Ad Exhaustion – Relevancy number declining over time? Time for a new ad.
Test Creative – Test ads against audiences to find higher relevancy scores.
Issues?
You can get good performance with a lower relevancy score.
A good relevance score with a high bid will beat out an excellent relevance score with a low bid.
