Day-to-day management of paid social advertising campaigns across Facebook, Google, Youtube
The first step -> choose our objective.
The first step for how to advertise on FB is choosing our objective. When we run an advertising campaign, it’s essential that we establish why we’re running that campaign. Every advertising campaign should have a focus.
On Facebook, we have numerous options for choosing an ad objective:
Target our audience.
Once we know our objective, we'll decide who we're trying to target. Facebook is a great place to target people precisely. We can get very specific with the network’s targeting options. Facebook allows us to target people based on their age, gender, location, language, interests, and buying habits
Choosing our ad type.
After we establish our target audience, we’ll focus on our ad type. such as:
- Photo ads
- Video ads
- Carousel ads
- Slideshow ads
Setting our budget.
The last crucial step for how to advertise on FB is setting our budget. We want to ensure that we know how much we’re going to spend on our Facebook advertising campaign. Facebook ads operate similarly to pay-per-click (PPC) ads.
We pay when someone engages with our ad. We’ll set a maximum bid amount, which is the maximum amount we’re willing to pay when someone clicks on our ad. We can either set a daily or lifetime budget for our campaigns.
We set the daily budget each day, and once we hit that daily amount, our campaign stops running until the next day. With a lifetime budget, we have a set amount for the duration of our campaign. Choosing how much we want to spend on our campaign will help us stay on track with our budget while still running an effective campaign.
