Reaching Your Prospects In Babylon on Facebook

There are numerous methods to appear in front of an "Audience" on Facebook:

• Targeting people who have been to your website previously (retargeting);
• People who are followers of your page;
• Potential customers who may have very similar interests (such as other pages on Facebook);
• People who meet demographic considerations;
• Prospects who are currently your customers;
• and the list goes on...

With Facebook, we will target people - by gender, age, income, occupation, job title, location, hobbies and even more. These people become part of an "audience" which may include any number of people. Facebook does not give us that list, however it will present our ads to individuals on that list that we have created.

We can buy clicks, sales opportunities, ad impressions ... they will let you pay in many different ways. In the end, it is about getting exposure to and connecting with your prospects.

Pluses and Minuses of Advertising on Social Media and Facebook

Pro: Facebook's Edge Over Google: No Search Needed

The main advantage Facebook offers In Babylon is its capacity to reach prospects that are not actively trying to find what you offer. This doesn't mean they won't have an interest. It just means they aren't actively performing a search when they view your advertisement. However, they most likely were hoping to find something like what you provide quite recently.

The search engines are restricted to people actually searching. A prospect may be in the market for legal counsel, but if they aren't doing a search for one, those advertising and marketing in pay-per-click do not reach that prospect.

Pro: Facebook is Perfect for Getting into Regional Niches

• Are you an attorney? Physician? Home renovation business? A restaurant or store?

• We are able to target your prospects in several ways.

The great thing about Facebook is the ability to target. You can run a small campaign that functions in very big ways, simply by concentrating on the right prospects, in the right area, with the appropriate message.

In general, Facebook advertising and marketing is less pricey than Google and the other search engines and reaches different people than SEO on Long Island. They cost significantly less per click. If you are opting to pay per ad impression (spending money on ads to be shown, instead of paying for clicks), that is likely to come in less expensive too.

However, in our experience, clicks from Facebook vs. Google tend to be of a reduced quality. It is not that there is a challenge with Facebook. Rather, an individual is in a different mind-set.

Users from Google just did a search (for example "personal injury attorneys in XYZ"). It is obvious what they want, and they are browsing because they have a true need. They tend to convert from web surfer to prospect at a greater rate, because they have a need that they need to satisfy (finding legal help).

In contrast, an ad on Facebook might capture someone's attention. They may or may not be actively shopping for an attorney, but still have the need.

For all of those reasons, Facebook visitors often convert at a lower rate than search engine visitors... which is OK for the reasons you will learn about next.

Whether Facebook is a "great deal" for your marketing spend genuinely will depend on the numbers.

Suppose search engine clicks are $12 and Facebook actions are $1. Which is best? It depends.

• If 5% of Google actions convert, that's $200+ for a new customer.
• If 1% of Facebook actions convert, that's $100 for a new customer - great!
• But of only 0.2% of Facebook visitors convert, that's $500+ for a new customer - that hurts!

The point is... there is no "right answer." It will depend on your campaign, your offer, and exactly how the marketplace reacts to you. The "right answer" is to test, adjust, and test all over again.
