– Use Facebook Audience Insights to know your customers better. AI (Audience Insights) will show you who your customers are – they occupation, age, gender, websites they like.
– Create Lookalike audiences based on previous events like Purchase, add to cart, initiate checkout, content view (+ content view at least two times), top 25% time spent on the website).
– Create a new prospecting campaign. What type of objective should you select? Test it! Three main goals to test: website conversion, traffic, catalog sales.
– Try to play with the manual bid to bully your competitors. If your average cost per event (like Purchase, landing page view) is 10$. You can try with the double or triple amount (20 or 30$).
– Creative: start with something simple but don’t miss the video ads. Even simple slideshow video is better than no video.
– Plan experiment, write it down, run, analyze, optimize, test again. It might take you some time to find the right audience, creative and copy but when you’ll see it – scaling your Facebook Ads going to be much more effective.

– In each ad set test three ads (one video, one single image, and one carousel).
