  • #68 Why Cookie Cutter Templates, Copy & Ad Formulas are Keeping You Stuck

    Hey there! Welcome back to another episode of Ads That Convert! This week I’ll be discussing with you why using cookie cutter templates, copy and strategy could be holding you back from experiencing your ads true potential.

    Does your audience engage with your ads? Or do they tend to scroll by them without doing anything? If they do engage, do they buy? Or do they drop off half way through the process, never to be heard from again?

    If you’re experiencing issues, the problem could be the formula you’ve been given. Not all audiences are alike, and sometimes we forget that when it comes to sales and creating ads! Not to worry though, I’ll help you figure out what will work for your audience, and it starts right here with this episode.

    • Why your audience may not respond to your ads the exact same way as someone else's
    • The importance of knowing how YOUR customer feels about engaging with your funnels and processes
    • Why you shouldn't be afraid to test things out once you’ve learned the foundational framework of running a successful ad campaign.

  • #67 Why focusing on your lead cost won't get you the best results

    Cost per lead is a metric that stresses a lot of people out when they're running Facebook ads. Much like obsessing over the numbers on a scale, discouraging people from losing weight, obsessing over your cost per lead might discourage you from going in on an ad strategy that will have huge results.

    I’m taking a moment this week to dive into why cost per lead isn't the only metric you should be focusing on, and how to devise a strategy based on actual data, rather than just feeling out whether or not the cost is “too high”.

    The more knowledge and data you have, the more informed decisions you can make, so click play and let’s get you the information you need to rock your next series of ads! 

     

    • Why overcoming the fear of spending money on Facebook ads is crucial to making decisions and running a successful campaign.
    • Much in the same way you can focus on the wrong numbers in weight loss, it’s also true with Facebook ads!
    • What numbers should you be measuring your cost per lead against?

  • #66 - Two Audience Updates You Might Have Missed

    I’ve been diligently working hard on some of my clients launches, and noticed two sneaky little changes that Facebook has made that I almost missed!

    I spend a great deal of my time in Facebook’s Ads Manager, and so If I nearly missed them, then you might miss them too!

    The first is a small change within the lookalike audience section of the Ads Manager. Nothing major, but still great to know about since it will most certainly impact the performance of your ads and how you would normally go about choosing audiences.

    The other is a change I noticed in the Connection Targeting area of Ads Manager, and where Facebook is shifting what they want to prioritize and what they consider to be important.

    While neither change will derail your campaigns completely if you miss them, you’ll be much better served by paying attention to them, so click play, tune in and figure out how to best serve your ads for the rest of 2020!

     

    • What is a lookalike audience and what's changed recently in how you set them up
    • What's changing with how you target your Facebook page likes.....and what it means for the future!

  • #65 How to Avoid Your Ads Being Disapproved

    This week on Ads That Convert, I’m talking all about the dreaded topic of Facebook ad rejection! You don't need me to tell you what a pain it can be to get ads approved right now, and in 2020, it’s could become even more difficult.

    It's all part of Facebook's plans to tighten up on ad approval in order to ensure quality ads are being served to the proper audiences. And while that sounds well and good for the average user, it’s makes life a little more challenging for entrepreneurs and business owners who are interested in running ads.

    Full disclosure - I’m not immune to having ads disapproved either!  So this week, I’m going into detail about the most common reasons your ads will be rejected in 2020, and what to do about it when it does happen!

    • How should you be setting up your ads in the first place so that they do get approved and you avoid any problems?

    • 5 of the most common reason why ads will be rejected.

    • What to do when you’ve put in all of the work, you feel like you've complied with ad policy, and you still get disapproved?

    • You'll catch more flies with honey than vinegar when it comes to dealing with Facebook about your rejected ad!
