Ask Lisa – Facebook Ads

Q:  What do you think about Facebook Ads? Do you recommend them? Why or why not?

A: Facebook ads are a complete waste of time and money UNLESS you know exactly who your target audience is.

There are 3 ways to use Facebook ads:

1. To get more people to like your page
2. To get more people to like and comment on the content you post on your page
3. To drive traffic to a website or landing page outside of Facebook

If you know your target market and want to do one of the above things, then Facebook ads are definitely for you. But, don’t forget that the only consistent thing about Facebook is that it will change! With the new changes ahead, planning and strategy for Facebook advertising will have to change as well.
