My experience

Strategic approach

Organisations want
three things all at once

Lots of leads

Low cost

As fast as
possible

Lots of leads

High cost

ABCDE Strategy

Audience - who do we want to reach?

Bid - what's the budget?

Content - what will persuade them to click?

Data - analyse results

Escalate - scale up what's working best

Audience

Target people who like relevant organisations

Lookalike audiences

Judicious use of Pixel to retarget people who clicked but didn't convert

People who like Refugee Action Facebook page

Bid

Use per click or per sign up as the charging basis

Start low eg. £0.20 per click

Wait 5-7 days

Then increase by £0.05

Wait 5-7 days

Repeat until we reach the optimum cost/volume ratio

Content

Campaign actions with a focus on people signing up to email list

Direct to donate asks focus on people who like the Refugee Action Facebook page, or have visited the donation page but not converted (if there's a strong proposition)

Usually organisation provides content and then I make suggestions to ensure it works best for Facebook ads

Data

Look at ad performance

Separate ad set for each audience

Engaging Networks tracking links - unique link for each ad

Reach

Clicks

Page Views

Sign ups

Opt ins

Escalate

See the performance all the way through after sign up and during the email journey

Focus on the audiences that have worked best, and increase the budget behind those

But all the time still looking for quality leads, not just quantity

A lot of agencies go for upfront sign ups and wash their hands of the long term performance of the leads

Dynamic audiences

Build a dynamic lookalike audience

Whenever someone signs up from a Facebook ad they can be added dynamically / automatically by Facebook to a custom audience

That custom audience can then be used to build a lookalike audience - which is constantly changing and adapting and improving based on every new sign up

Timescales

Daily/Weekly/Monthly budgets and targets

Quarterly budgets and targets

Annual budgets and targets
