Reaching Your Prospects In North Hills on Facebook

There are lots of ways to appear in front of an "Audience" on Facebook:

  • Focusing on individuals who have been to your site previously (retargeting);
  • Prospects who are fans of your page;
  • Potential customers who have similar interests (which include other pages on Facebook);
  • People who meet demographic considerations;
  • Prospects who are currently your customers;
  • and the list goes on...

With Facebook, we're able to target individuals - by gender, age, salary, profession, job title, area, interests and much more. These individuals end up part of an "audience" which can consist of many people. Facebook doesn't give us that list, however it will display our advertisements to individuals on that list that we have created.

We can buy clicks, sales opportunities, advertising impressions ... they will let you pay in various ways. In the end, it is about purchasing 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 primary advantage Facebook offers In North Hills is its capacity to appear in front of prospects that are not actively trying to find what you offer. This does not mean they won't be interested. It simply means they are not actively conducting a search when they view your ad. However, they most likely were seeking something like what you provide quite recently.

The search engines like Google are limited to people actually searching. A person may be in the market for legal counsel, but if they aren't performing a search for one, those advertising in Google Adwords do not reach that prospect.

Pro: Facebook is Ideal for Getting to Local Markets

  • Are you an attorney? Physician? Home services business? A restaurant or merchant?
  • For any organization who conducts business locally In North Hills Facebook is a great way to reach your target audience.
  • We are able to target your prospects in numerous ways.
  • Only need to reach women 35-65 in a few zip codes? Not an issue!
  • Want to have a special on Thursdays? We are able to do that.

The attractiveness of Facebook is the ability to target. You can operate a very small advertising campaign that behaves in huge ways, simply by concentrating on the right prospects, in the right market, with the appropriate message.

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

social media concepts and facebook advertising

In general, Facebook advertising is less costly than Google and the other 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, rather than paying for clicks), that tends to come in less expensive as well.

However, in our experience, clicks from Facebook vs. Google are generally of a reduced quality. It is certainly not there's a disadvantage in Facebook. Rather, the person is in a different frame of mind.

Users from Google just performed a search (for example "personal injury lawyers in XYZ"). It is apparent what they need, and they are searching since they have a real need. They have a tendency to convert from surfer to lead at a higher rate, since they have a need that they must satisfy (finding legal help).

In comparison, an ad on Facebook may capture a person's attention. They may or may not be proactively hunting for a lawyer, but still have the need.

For these reasons, Facebook visitors often convert at a lower rate than search engine visitors... which is OK for the reasons you will learn below.

So is Social Media Advertising a Great Deal?

Whether Facebook is a "great deal" for your advertising and marketing budget really depends on the numbers.

Suppose search engine clicks are $10 and Facebook clicks are $1. Which of these is best? It depends.

  • If 5% of Google visitors convert, that's $200+ for a new customer.
  • If 1% of Facebook visitors 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 marketing campaign, your offer, and the way the marketplace reacts to you. The "right answer" is to test, modify, and test yet again.
