Facebook advertising seems to be one of those things that “every marketer is talking about it, but very few actually know how to drive real business results.”
Our agency, Marketing Nutz works with brands big and small to help them drive a positive ROI with every dollar spent on digital, social media and marketing overall. We train and speak all over the world and one of the top questions I always hear is… “does Facebook marketing actually work?” Then, the next question I hear is…”why doesn’t Facebook advertising work for me and my business… I have tried it numerous times and finally just gave up.”
Does this sound familiar?
- You get confused when you logon to Facebook ad manager
- You run away from the Facebook Power Editor because it gives you bad dreams
- You have wasted far too much money on Facebook advertising with little to zero return
- You don’t know where to start when it comes to paid media, earned media and everything in between
- You don’t know the difference between a Facebook boosted post or any other type of Facebook advertisement
If these thoughts feel a little too familiar, then you are in the right place. The truth is that Facebook advertising requires both art and science. You can’t just hop on Facebook, insert your credit card and out pops loads of leads, sales and ROI. I know some marketers may want you to believe such, but the truth is they likely just want your email address or your money.
