everybody just in scenar here back with,another video in my brand new free,series showing you different valuable,facebook ad targeting tips and it,doesn't matter what type of store or,what type of product you have you could,apply these tips to help improve your,ads and you might just learn something,new at the same time and today I'm going,to be showing you how to target parents,so it could be fathers mothers it could,be parents with some specific type of,aged kid I'm going to show you all this,inside of Facebook ads we're going to go,over the shoulder and the really cool,part about this is their Facebook really,kind of spoon feeds you this and you see,I'm in a sample Facebook ad always gonna,be clicking on conversions and we'll,come over here we just need to get to,the detail targeting box down here and,you know this is our main option box,we're gonna make sure that this box is,always unchecked right we don't want to,expand interest automatically and all,you need to do is come over here and,click browse and if you haven't gone in,here if you've just gotten here and,typed interest in this box don't we,spend some time to click through some of,these different options in here but what,I'm gonna be showing you is demographics,right demographics and then literally we,scroll down here it says parents and,then we click all parents and the first,thing I'm going to show you is literally,this selection right here where it says,parents all and we're gonna click that,that checkbox we have 32 million,targetable parents on Facebook and if,you're going back in here and you're,saying okay where does it say mothers,and where does it say father's right,well don't forget that we have the,gender of box over here so you're not,gonna find it saying mother's or,Father's but you are gonna be able to,switch you want to see you want to find,parents who are men well effectively,those are father's right so you have,parents with the male gender gives you,11 million fathers that you can target,vice versa you have parents with the,women gender that's giving you mom's 20,million moms that you can target as well,okay so very very straightforward like,Facebook you literally just spoon feeds,it for you if you want to go and target,parents they have the demographic of,parent and then you just hit the gender,that you want right now Facebook goes a,little bit further this is really great,for e-commerce sellers right let's say,you have products that you know are only,good for babies or toddlers right well,you might not necessarily want to be,targeting parents that have adult,children parents that have teenagers,right if you have a kid in high school,they're not going to be,diapers and baby Rattlers and all that,stuff right so if you have all these,baby related products that you want to,sell you Facebook again has these great,options for you right here Larry says,new parents 0 to 12 months so we're,gonna uncheck the parents all we're,gonna now qualify them by only having,parents you know we have both moms and,dads here of 0 to 12 months old and we,could even add again it depends on your,products we could add toddlers as well,we could add preschoolers if it fits our,criteria right but we have all these,different buckets over here right and,this allows us to not only target,parents not only target MA dad's or,mom's but also target very specific,types so literally what we're doing just,says this example of an ad right here,literally targeting new moms right and,if you're doing print on demand t-shirts,you can think of millions of ideas right,there you could also target right here,new dads right so this is how you do any,type of parent based targeting and,really really powerful for print on,demand because the more targeted you can,get the more precise design you can,create and that creates that really,powerful match that really makes those,people in the ad say wow this is exactly,me and that's what's going to get their,credit card out so I hope this was,pretty helpful if you have any ideas or,any questions feel free to leave them as,a comment otherwise I hope this video,helps you make some money

A BETTER way to target Facebook Ads in 2022

A BETTER way to target Facebook Ads in 2022

facebook just deleted thousands of,interest targeting options we also found,out that interest targeting is,inaccurate about 30 of the time and,we're starting to see more and more,examples of people finding the most,success with their ads by using no,targeting options at all so with all of,this going on how do you make sure you,get your ads in front of the right,people at the right time the good news,is there are several things you can and,should do and that's what we're going to,talk about in this video see the way the,facebook machine learning algorithm,works is it puts your ads out there in,front of people and it looks at who,engages and takes action on those ads,then it will go and show your ads to,more people just like those engagers and,action takers so the key is to make sure,that you get the right people taking,action on your ads so that the algorithm,gets fed good data and so it can get you,the results that you're looking for the,first way you can make sure you do that,is by creating ads that speak,specifically to your target audience,what do i mean by that well rather than,writing generic ad copy that speaks to,everyone or to a really broad audience,make sure you're writing copy that just,speaks to your specific target take a,look at this example and i'm not saying,this is a bad ad but what you'll notice,about this ad when you read the headline,and the opening few lines of the copy is,that it's very broad the famous,three-lane marketing method could be for,marketing any type of business it could,be for e-commerce courses,coaching or anything else you can think,of now one way you can make this more,specific really really quickly and it's,kind of obvious is to call your target,audience out directly so instead of just,saying the famous three-lane marketing,method you could say the famous,three-lane marketing method for online,course creators or the famous three-lane,marketing method for coaches what it,comes down to is it's about the who so,who do you want to target and then name,that person or call them out,specifically in your ad copy and the,place to do this is the headline or the,opening few lines of copy because that's,what people see when they first notice,you're out of the news feed here's,another example it's kind of generic at,the moment it says how to convert,clients from small groups well you could,apply what i just said and make this,more specific by calling out your target,audience simply by saying how to convert,coaching clients from small groups or if,you were targeting bookkeepers you could,say how to convert more bookkeeping,clients from small groups so you can see,that tiny tweak makes a big difference,in terms of who the copy speaks to now,one thing i'll mention here is that yes,this is going to probably drive up your,lead costs a little bit but it's going,to lead to higher quality leads or a,higher percentage of your leads being,the exact person you're after because,again if you were say targeting,bookkeepers like i just said and you,used a generic option well maybe one in,five or one in 10 people who come in,through that lead magnet are going to be,the bookkeeper audience that you're,looking for but this way if you call,them out specifically pretty much all of,them are going to be the target leads,that you want so yes it's more expensive,but they're better leads the next thing,you can do to help is tap the like,button on this video that really does,help this channel helps get this video,out in front of more people and it helps,tell me what type of content i should,create more of and if you do decide to,do that thanks so much i really do,appreciate it okay so back to the,serious stuff the next thing you can do,is use creatives that only appeal to,your specific audience so what i mean by,that well most of the creatives that you,see meaning the images of the videos in,the news feed are quite generic but what,you can do is you can flip that around,and use really specific creatives,creatives that contain images or video,that is only instantly recognizable by,the person that you want to pay,attention to that ad for example if i,want to get in front of seo experts or,people who understand seo let's say i've,got a course that teaches advanced seo,tactics and strategies well one thing i,could do in my creatives is use a,screenshot with a chart from google,search console now the only people who,know what the inside of google search,console looks like is going to be,somebody who's familiar with seo or,who's trying to figure out seo right,anyone else who sees that ad are going,to look at that and have no idea what it,is or what it means and that's what,makes this particular tactic really,effective it's instantly recognizable,for the right people and it gets ignored,by the wrong people which is actually,what you want deterring the people who,are not interested in your ad or who you,aren't interested in turning into leads,is just as important as attracting the,right people another example is let's,say you teach people how to use,microsoft excel well in that example you,would use an image or a video that only,people who are familiar with microsoft,excel would recognize let's go even,deeper with an example of that let's say,you have a lead magnet that teaches them,how to solve a specific error that is,common among excel users you could have,a screenshot that just shows an image of,the error or you could have a video that,shows somebody typing into excel and,that particular error appearing if,somebody is struggling with that problem,and they see that ad,of course they're going to click it,because they know that it's going to,help them with the exact problem they're,experiencing right now now that kind of,leads me into the next one that is using,hooks and talking about problems that,only your audience would experience,let's say you've got a company that,teaches bookkeepers how to scale their,business and increase profits well you,could create an ad that says something,like here are three simple tactics that,we use to help businesses increase,profit by 200 percent sounds pretty good,but every business owner wants that that,is so generic and has such a broad,appeal that you're going to attract,every business owner you're not going to,just attract bookkeeping company owners,through that particular hook but if we,change that a little and use a hook like,how we increase our profit per book,keeping client by 200,without cutting corners then that is,hyper specific that hook appeals to,bookkeeping companies and bookkeeping,companies only another example talking,about a specific pain point for the,bookkeeper example could be something,like customer churn is one of the,biggest challenges any bookkeeping,company faces here's how we cut ours in,half really simple hook again it talks,to a very specific pain point we call,out that bookkeeper audience at the same,time so we're kind of blending two,together here it's going to be very,effective in attracting just the type of,leads that we want which leads me to the,next thing which dramatically affects,the quality of the leads that you bring,in and the roads that you deliver from,your campaigns i've actually seen this,change completely turn around the,performance of an ad campaign and it's,often not even thought of when trying to,troubleshoot why a campaign isn't,performing and that is thinking about,who your lead magnet itself meaning the,free opt-in that you're offering who is,that actually attracting into your,pipeline or into your business so what,you want to do is make sure that your,lead magnet attracts people who are,ready and willing to buy from you that,means people who are ready and willing,to buy from you now and have the problem,that you actually solve and people who,are in a financial position to buy from,you as well because if you have a lead,magnet that attracts the wrong person it,doesn't matter how good your ads are it,doesn't matter how cheap your leads are,if they're attracting leads who aren't,actually ready to become customers of,yours yet then the roas is never going,to be there so to do that you need to,create a lead magnet that solves a,problem that the person who is ready to,jump on board become a client or a,customer of yours now is actually,experiencing so they can come in have a,great experience to your lead magnet and,hopefully turn into a customer let's,look at an example because i know this,can be a little bit abstract at first,but let's say you've got a business that,helps other companies scale from six,figures up to seven figures now there,are a set of challenges or problems that,a business experiences at six figures,that they need to overcome in order to,get to seven and those challenges and,problems are different than when you go,from zero up to the first six figures so,your lead magnet shouldn't be appealing,to somebody who's trying to overcome the,challenges of going from zero to six it,should be appealing to the people who,are trying to overcome the challenges of,going from six figures to seven for,example if you wanted to appeal to the,six-figure business owners to help them,get to seven you might offer them a lead,magnet that teaches them how to hire for,key management positions or maybe an,automation guide to automate certain,time-consuming repetitive tasks that,happen once you hit a certain scale now,both of these are real problems that a,six figure business owner will have but,anyone who's got a smaller business will,not be experiencing if they're owning,twenty thousand dollars a year they're,not going to be looking to hire,management positions they're going to be,running everything and so a hiring guide,for managers isn't going to appeal to,them and that's a good thing now what,you don't want to do is have a lead,magnet that's something like how to get,your first clients or how to get your,first 5000 followers on instagram,because that's going to appeal to all of,those newer business owners and while,there's nothing wrong with those,business owners they're not who you are,trying to attract and so generating,leads based on a lead magnet like that,is going to bring you a bunch of leads,and they might be low cost leads but,none of them are going to turn into,customers which is at the end of the day,the whole purpose of running your,facebook and instagram ad campaign right,now when it comes to actually targeting,like setting up an ad set you're,probably still wondering how should i do,that the three things that i will tell,you are broad interest targeting is,number one so instead of going for,specific interest now go for big broad,wide interests okay now this is going to,include a lot of people who aren't in,your target audience but as i said,earlier interest targeting isn't super,accurate anymore anyway and facebook,have actually deleted a lot of the,interest targeting options that we used,to have that were quite specific so go,with broad interests and use these,things that i've just told you create,ads that speak to your specific audience,make sure you're using hooks and talking,about problems that your audience,experiences and make sure you're,creating lead magnets themselves that,actually appeal to this specific,customer that you want to acquire in,terms of lookalike audiences go for,bigger broader look-alikes as well so,i'm tending to find that five percent,look-alikes and above are outperforming,the smaller one to two percent,look-alike audiences and then the third,thing to try is open targeting meaning,you don't target any interests or any,custom audiences you simply target the,countries that you want maybe the age,bracket that you want and the gender and,that's about it you leave everything,else open and then use these things i've,just talked to you about in this video,to do the targeting for you now when it,comes to setting up your ads if you want,to avoid the biggest mistakes that i'm,seeing right now that are costing,advertisers a lot of time and a lot of,money make sure you check out this video,next thanks for watching and i'll see,you in the next one bye
