CHAPTER 10

FACEBOOK ADS

IN THIS CHAPTER I’LL TALK ABOUT TAKING ADVANTAGE OF OTHER PEOPLE’S EMOTIONS, HOW TO MARKET PRODUCTS PEOPLE ARE EMBARRASSED TO ADMIT THEY USE, AND HOW PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT.

As of the writing of this book in late summer 2015, Facebook ads, also known as Unpublished Page posts, are the single best advertising digital product for entrepreneurs and Fortune 500 companies that I’ve seen since buying the keyword wine through Google AdWords in 2004.

I didn’t realize it at first. Facebook has been an evolving ad product for the last few years, starting off slow, with ads on the right side of the desktop like any other banner advertising. When I started to see ads in the newsfeed it made a lot of sense to me; it’s huge and in-your-face when you look at the screen on your phone. Still, I didn’t have a eureka moment until a few months later, into 2014. It was only when I looked at the data and the results of the early Facebook ad campaigns that I started getting bullish and recognized that this was going to be a game changer.

So did a few others, but not everyone. In fact, a lot of people were hysterical in 2014–15 that Facebook would make changes that would compromise its organic outreach on fan pages in favor of ad pages. Journalists, pundits, and execs who had never run a Facebook ad were publishing articles about how all the young people were migrating to Snapchat and Instagram and threatening Facebook’s domination. People were so angry and emotional they resisted exploring Facebook’s capabilities and trying out the new ad product. But I and other real practitioners, the kind of people who spend lots of time in the dirt, recognized that this emotional narrative was creating an outstanding arbitrage opportunity, and we jumped in to take advantage of it.

The more people bashed Facebook and swore its effectiveness was on the decline, the fewer people were trying out the new ad platform. And since Facebook is a supply-and-demand marketplace, the price only goes up as advertisers bid for audiences, just like Google AdWords. There was therefore an incredible golden era in 2014–15 where the intrepid marketers who weren’t wasting their breath complaining and were willing to experiment could get tremendous reach to the exact people they wanted with a bunch of different creatives, and see tangible results. That, my friends, reflects the difference between how practitioners and headline readers operate.

We’ve never had an ad product with incredible accuracy, one that could target to age, s@x, occupation, and on top of that, behaviors and interests. By partnering up with data mining companies, Facebook can now tell us not only the demographics of its users, but their buying histories, both online and off. You can literally target one ad to nineteen-year-old men with facial hair who live in Phoenix and drink Red Bull, and send another one to twenty-three-year-old women in Detroit who wear contact lenses and play golf. I’m a forty-year-old male who lives in Manhattan and loves the Jets and root beer. Imagine what a phenomenally cost-effective transaction you could instigate if you hit my emotional center by putting in my line of vision a root beer with green football thematics. The only challenge is figuring out the psychology of your audience and determining what story will most likely compel them to make a purchase. If you learn to interpret the available correctly and deploy it with creative calls to action against the right demo at the right time on the right platform, you’re golden. Theoretically, Facebook ads could allow you to create a unique, native, relevant ad to every user on Facebook. I’m convinced this period will be heralded as one of the great eras of advertising alongside early TV advertising, early direct mail advertising, and early Google AdWords.

By the time you read this more people will be flooding this product. It’s possible that Facebook ads will no longer be as effective as they once were now that more people have caught on to their extraordinary capabilities. Slowly the supply and demand will force the ads to a more appropriate price. I’ll still be bullish about it and I believe it will be a monster platform in 2016–17, even becoming the bedrock of people’s advertising plans. And as always, even in the most saturated market, there is ROI in putting your content on anything that consumers pay attention to, so long as you know how to execute, preferably better than anyone else.

What’s the best way to use Facebook ads and the right price to pay?

What’s the best way to use Facebook ads to grow audiences on other platforms?

Which marketing vehicles are working best to grow the start-ups you’ve invested in?

As a rookie, how much should I allocate to Facebook ads for a Teespring campaign?

How should marketers engage with an audience that is generally reluctant to talk publicly about the needs we can fill, for example hair replacement products?

Is it worth paying for a course to learn all about Facebook ads, or is it all right to rely on the free info on YouTube? Are Facebook ads really that complicated?
