With the expansive targeting options now offered by Facebook,
it is nearly impossible not to find your perfect target market using Facebook
advertising.
Are you a dentist? Wedding planner? Auto dealer? Fitness
guru? Florist?
Your ideal audience is waiting on Facebook. Need more

Audience targeting on Facebook is as powerful as you want it
to be. You can even target people who eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
But before you start targeting people with Facebook advertising, you have to
know your audience. What do they read? What do they do for fun? What age are
they? Gender? Where do they live? What sites do they search online? Do they
have children?
The more you know your audience, the more you can narrow in
and get more leads from your Facebook advertising efforts.
Everything you need to target your ideal audience on
Facebook is located in the fields above.
- Location
- Age
- Gender
- Languages
- Demographics
- Interests
- Behaviors
No matter how captivating your Facebook ads or landing pages
are, if your ads are being shown to the wrong audience, your campaign will
never be successful.
However, when you do find your audience on Facebook, you will
be able to acquire leads for far less money than what you’d spend on Google
Adwords or other advertising avenues. This is one of the reasons many smart
marketers choose the ultra specific targeting of Facebook advertising over the
more broad options available through Google Adwords.
If you’re looking to generate new leads online, Facebook
advertising is an avenue that can work with practically every business type,
even B2B. However, there are steps you’ll need to take to ensure that your
Facebook campaigns are successful; including having a enticing lead magnet,
captivating ad, optimal landing page and strong follow-up process.
