Reaching Your Prospects In Islip on Facebook

There are numerous ways to reach an "Audience" on Facebook:

  • Concentrating on those who have visited your site before (retargeting);
  • Potential customers that are fans of your page;
  • Prospects who may have related pursuits (which include other pages on Facebook);
  • Prospects who meet demographic criteria;
  • Prospects who are already your customers;
  • and the list goes on...

With Facebook, we are able to target individuals - by gender, age, salary, profession, job title, location, passions and even more. These individuals become part of an "audience" which may include any number of individuals. Facebook doesn't give us that list, however it will show our advertisements 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 purchasing exposure to and connecting with your prospects.

Pros of Advertising on Social Media and Facebook

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

The primary advantage Facebook offers In Islip is its ability to appear in front of prospects who are not proactively looking for what you offer. This does not mean they won't be interested. It just means they are not proactively performing a search when they view your advertisement. However, they probably were looking for something such as what you offer very recently.

The search engines are limited to people in fact searching. A prospect may be in the market for a lawyer, but if they are not doing a search for one, those advertising in prospect pay per click do not appear in front of that prospect.

Pro: Facebook is Great for Getting into Regional Areas

  • Are you an attorney? Doctor? Home renovation company? A restaurant or merchant?
  • For any business who conducts business locally In Islip Facebook is an excellent technique to reach your audience.
  • We are able to target your prospects in several ways.
  • Only want to reach women 35-65 in a few zip codes? No worries!
  • Want to have a special on Thursdays? We can do that.

The great thing about Facebook is the capacity to target. You can operate a very small campaign that behaves in very big ways, simply by targeting the right prospects, in the right region, with the right message.

Facebook Costs are Lower, but So are Conversion Rates...

social media concepts and facebook advertising

In general, Facebook marketing and advertising is less expensive than Google and the other search engines and reaches different people than SEO on Long Island. They charge significantly less for each click. If you are opting to pay per ad view (spending money on advertisements to be presented, instead of paying for clicks), that tends to cost less as well.

However, in our experience, clicks from Facebook vs. Google tend to be of a lower quality. It isn't that there is a challenge with Facebook. Rather, the person is in some other state of mind.

Users from Google just did a search (for example "personal injury lawyers in XYZ"). It is clear what they want, and they're searching since they have a genuine need. They have a tendency to convert from web surfer to qualified prospect at a greater rate, because they have a current need that they have to satisfy (finding legal help).

In comparison, an ad on Facebook may capture someone's attention. They may or may not be proactively searching for an attorney, but still have the need.

For these reasons, Facebook targeted traffic tend to convert at a lower rate than Google visitors... which is fine for the reasons you will discover below.

So is Social Media Advertising on Facebook a Great Deal?

Whether Facebook is really a "great deal" for your advertising spend truly depends on the numbers.

Suppose search engine mouse clicks are $12 and Facebook visitors are $1. Which of these is superior? 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 isn't any "correct answer." It will depend on your strategy, your offer, and the way the market reacts to you. The "correct answer" would be to test, adjust, and test again.
