(CPC) CPC is a good option for advertisers targeting a very specific audience For example, if you want to target your highest LTV customers, you could use CPC bidding to serve ads to your entire audience rather than those likely to convert Clicks For CPC with link ads, you pay for clicks on links, likes, comments and shares Clicks For CPC with mobile app ads, you pay for clicks to the app

Practices Direct Response Marketing on Facebook 13 Campaign Prep Planning your campaign As you plan your campaign on Facebook, you can start by asking yourself a few questions: • What are the business goals I’m seeking to achieve and how they map to the objectives I can drive on Facebook? For instance, your business goals could be acquiring new customers or remarketing to existing customers • How will I measure and track results? Before launching your campaign, identify what metrics will be measured so you and your partners can work towards the same goal The answers to these questions will define your strategy and help you measure the effectiveness of Facebook alongside other direct response channels Next, follow these steps: • Align Facebook with your marketing efforts From account planning to the KPIs metrics you’ll measure, leverage the same processes and best practices for an apples-to-apples comparison between channels • Consider long-term success metrics It’s not too early to set long-term goals for your program Consider metrics such as lifetime value (LTV), downstream value, average order value (AOV) and share of new customers • Leverage your fans Your business will benefit from having more people who like your Page since Facebook ads show social context, which increases the efficacy of your ads Audience Insights from your Page such as geographic, demographic and interests data can also enhance your ability to target the right people and refine your creative for specific campaigns Campaign structure Facebook’s campaign structure makes it easier for you to organize, optimize and measure the performance of your ads The structure has three levels: campaign, ad set and ad Campaign Campaign best practices Ad set Set up campaigns based on advertising objectives Ad set Create multiple campaigns within an ad account Ad Ad Ad Ad Cap spend across all campaigns and track spend for each campaign Ad set best practices Organize ad sets by audience segment Optimize top performing placements Set bidding to maximize performance Adjust budgets to optimize spend Ad best practices Use ad types that match your campaign objective Create multiple ads to optimize performance Don’t go over the limits for number of campaigns, ads sets and ads Direct Response Marketing on Facebook 14 Set up for measurement To measure the success of your program, you will need to set the proper measurement solutions in place Determine your objective for each campaign and define a metric for success Every successful campaign begins with a clear objective in mind Make sure your marketing team and your partners (agency and/or your Facebook Marketing Partner) are aligned on which metrics you will use to determine success Common metrics include conversion rate, return on ad spend (ROAS), life time value (LTV), and conversion Lift Install Facebook conversion pixel on your website and App Events in your app Since many conversions happen on a different device or platform than an ad was displayed it is important to install conversion tools on each touchpoint for your business To track conversions that happen on your website and mobile website, implement the conversion pixel To track conversions that happen in your mobile app, implement the Facebook SDK and set up App Events If you are tracking purchases, add a conversion value to your pixel and app events to understand the total value of purchases attributed to your Facebook ads Track your ads with the conversion pixel and app events Make sure that each ad you run is configured to track your conversion pixel and, if you have an app, your app events Look at your cross-device reports After your campaign has finished, view your ad reports in Facebook Ads Manager Find which campaigns and ads drove the most conversions and allocate your budgets accordingly Next, compare the Placement Device with the Conversion device to understand how your customers are interacting with your ads and then converting across different devices Cross device reporting provides vital insights into consumer shopping behavior that can help you optimize your mobile ads Set up measurement for lifetime value (LTV) It’s not too early to set long-term goals for your program Consider metrics such as lifetime value (LTV), downstream value and share of new versus returning customers Partner with a third-party measurement provider to consider alternate attribution models Most marketers today rely on attribution models that give full credit to the last ad clicked on that browser, without considering the cross device behavior of their customers Facebook conversion reporting measures real people, not cookies, so you can always attribute the success of your ads to people no matter which device they last saw your ad In addition to Facebook conversion tracking, consider partnering with a measurement provider that can help you explore other attribution models beyond last click Direct Response Marketing on Facebook 15 Targeting With the right targeting strategy, you can reach consumers on Facebook in meaningful numbers to drive scalable results across devices Though Facebook has more targeting options than other channels, the same audience planning process applies Think about the goal you’ve set for your business on Facebook Are you acquiring new customers or remarketing to existing customers? Your objective will define the audience you want to target Ask yourself the following questions to help develop your audience strategy on Facebook: • Who are your target audiences? • How you segment your audiences? What types of data/insights you have about them? • What are your key focus markets now and in the future? • Who manages your CRM database? How you use your database for marketing purposes today? • What offline data you use for targeting in other campaigns? These questions should help determine what audiences you want to reach on Facebook Next, use Facebook targeting to find your audience Recommended targeting solution by objective Core Audience Custom Audience Lookalike Audience Driving online traffic Acquiring new customers X X X X Remarketing to existing customers Driving in store traffic Acquiring new customers X (Partners Categories) X X Remarketing to existing customers Driving mobile app installs and conversions Acquiring new mobile app users X X Remarketing to existing mobile app users X X Direct Response Marketing on Facebook X 16 Success Story 20Jeans used Custom Audiences to remarket to people who abandoned their shopping cart on their website Result: Saw a 300% decrease in CPA and a 2-3X higher conversion rate than other display platforms Facebook case study, June 2014 Best practices for targeting Use the following best practices to efficiently reach the people in your target audience Reach audiences based on where they are in the lifecycle Identify audiences by where they are in the lifecycle For example, remarket to people who demonstrated purchase intent on your website, target existing customers who are likely to churn and reach your highest LTV customers to keep them engaged Minimize overlapping audiences Overlapping target audiences mean multiple ads are competing for the same auctions, thus cannibalizing the delivery for your campaign Consider consolidating target audiences into larger but fewer audience segments Also, evaluate the timing of ad sets as they may not need to run at the same time Use Audience Insights and App Insights to better understand the demographics of your most engaged audiences Advertisers can leverage data from Audience Insights and App Insights to identify audiences that may be interested in purchasing their products and are most engaged Exclude current customers from acquisition campaigns If you’re running a campaign with the goal of acquiring new customers, use Custom Audiences to exclude your existing customers from your campaign Use specific seed lists to build lookalike audience When building a lookalike audience, start with a seed list that is specific to the objective you’re seeking to achieve For example, build a seed list of people who tend to convert online versus offline and find people who look like them Direct Response Marketing on Facebook 17 Creative and messaging After you’ve identified your goal and target audience, reach them with compelling creative that drives them to your website, store or mobile app Great creative drives engagement and can sometimes lead to higher delivery and cheaper costs Take advantage of the visual and native canvas in News Feed to drive your direct response objectives Best practices for direct response creative Stick to one strong focal point Keep to one focal point within your creative so that it’s obvious to your audience what your objective is For example, if you’re a retailer, showcase the product you’re looking to sell and provide a clear directive within the ad Make your ad noticeable Use creative that captures attention and gets people to stop scrolling through their News Feed Insert brand personality Add your brand personality into your creative For example, insert your logo or stick to colors from your brand Create informational reward Make sure the product or service you’re promoting is something the audience might be interested in For example, an events business can promote tickets for a concert to people who have previously purchased concert tickets from their website Create emotional reward Think of ways to connect with your audience emotionally Humor is a great emotional trigger Mirror creative to where your audience is in the sales funnel If your audience is in the consideration phase, use creative to drive interest in your products or services If your audience has demonstrated intent on your website, use creative with a strong call-to-action to drive the outcome you care about Use a strong call to action Vital to direct response campaigns, ensure you have a single, clear call-to-action that drives the objective you’re looking to achieve on Facebook Do not confuse the call-to-action by asking them to purchase a product and like your Page Create consistency across the path-to-conversion When driving a conversion on your website or mobile app, keep the look and feel of the experience seamless from the ad itself all the way to the conversion page Consider refreshing the creative Campaigns will begin to fatigue over time given the frequency with your target audience Review performance over time and update creative often to maximize results 10 Test, test, test! Ensure you’re using the best performing creative by testing continuously Direct Response Marketing on Facebook 18 Bidding Pricing We charge you based on: • The position you win in the auction • The weighted average of your Facebook’s auction is designed to give you the least expensive delivery possible regardless of your bid On Facebook, the bid is assumed to be the value (e.g revenue) captured from each click, impression or action competitors’ bids Prices are calculated based on the position won in the auction and the weighted average of your competitors’ bids This means that the price charged is almost always less than the bid Figure out what the max bid is by calculating the average profit from a click or action (this varies by target audience, and possibly other factors, and should be adjusted over time) Best practices for bidding • Bid your true value Bid the maximum amount you’re willing to pay per objective • Increase your bid if you’re willing to pay more per objective You will almost always be charged less than your bid So if you’re willing to spend more, increase your bid to maximize delivery • Set accurate end times for your ad sets You might get slower delivery if the system thinks it has to spread your spend out over a long period of time • Identify high LTV users Find users with high life time value and adjust your bids for those segments that will deliver the greatest return for your business • Don’t change bids and budgets too frequently Fluctuations in bids may affect delivery • Don’t try for the cheapest clicks or impressions You will reach people that are easier reached, but don’t necessarily provide the LTV you expect In addition, you might not be able to scale your campaign properly Direct Response Marketing on Facebook 19
