When assessing campaigns, I prefer using the maximize clicks bidding strategy with set limits on the maximum bid amount.(Here’s why)Adjustments can significantly impact performance:1️⃣ Bringing down the cost per conversion from $46 to $38.2️⃣ Sometimes, it can drop from $110 to no conversions.3️⃣ In another case, it went from $55 to $31.What happened?For products that are needed now, getting less aggressive in the auction led to fewer conversions. To counter this, I plan to increase the maximize click bid by $2.80 and monitor the results.(Optimize and measure)We reduced CPC from $16 to $7, which increased cost per conversions. Always measure performance before and after adjustments and make necessary tweaks.P.S. What’s your experience with maximize clicks bidding? Share your insights below.Repost this tip for your network♻ Thank you!

    Recently I did 3 Discovery calls with marketing clients, and here what's I found:Client: My Ads are not working.....I've mentioned the top 3 reasons why your ad is not working→ Product-Market FitAn absolute must. If your product doesn't meet a strong need or desire within the market, no amount of advertising will save you.You need to meet your audience's needs and expectations.→ OfferNot just the product you offer. The price, packaging and perceived value across the whole customer journey.Your offer needs to make your audience take action. If it doesn't, revisit the above and test new offers!Don't be stubborn. Drop the ego.→ MarginsMargins directly impact the scalability of your ads. Low margins, low AOV, and low LTV will always lead to a cap on what you can spend per day on advertising. You will hit a ceiling.We’re huge advocates for making a profit on a first sale, always. CAC > LTV is great… Even better when the first purchase is already making a profit.What would you add?

    🔄 Here are the updates: the Cost Per Result Goal to improve conversion volume and ROAS Goal bid strategy to increase overall value.💰 The Cost Per Result Goal bid strategy can be used to control how much you spend per conversion. You manually set the bid, so that the Cost Per Result Goal is, for example, $20 per purchase. However, since some results may cost less or more, it's possible that expenses could be lower than your budget. So, it's worth paying attention to this.📈 The Return on Ad Spend Goal bid strategy helps the algorithm understand your target ROAS during the optimization of purchase cost (note that the default option for sales campaigns is conversion volume, but it can be changed to value). You can set a target ROAS of 2.50, and Meta will try to maintain this goal and halt spending if it's not achieved.🤔 Will this update be useful for you, friends?

    The 3 levers for revenue growth in 20241. Ads2. Offers3. LandersHealth check:1. Are your ads converting at your target cost per acquisition at your ideal spend? If not, do more creative testing.2. Do you have a good mix of offers that gets cold traffic excited to buy from you? If not, test offers. Start with a threshold offer - “Get 25% off all orders over $298”3. Do your product pages, collections pages, and landing pages convert? If not, do conversion rate optimization.What’s your biggest challenge currently?

    If you've got a product that's just not working, and you've optimized conversion rate as much as possible...Don't brute force it with ads.Drop the price.Example below. We turned all the ads OFF.Driving the additional sales with ads would have put ACOS through the roof.

    Update: main keyword (20k search volume) now ranking number 6 organically (see comments section) - best rank in 90 days.We would not have reached this rank if we had stayed at the higher price and continued pushing ads.Can we maintain the rank when we raise price again? Could be difficult. Will post an update when the time comes.

    How much should I spend on ads? ..If only I had a dollar every time I get this question.Here are a few ways to determine how much to spend on ads.1: The "wing it" methodJust pick a number, any number. And start from there.Don't overthink it - you can always adjust in the future.2: Multiple of CAC methodTake your Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) and multiply it by 5-10 times. That's your ideal daily ad spend.If you find that too high, reel it back a little.3: Percentage of Revenue MethodI personally like this one. Take a percentage of last month/quarter revenue.Typically 10-15% for smaller businesses, and 5-8% for larger businesses.There's no right way to determine how much to spend on ads. The secret is to adjust over time.#business #marketing #advertising

    How do you know which ads are performing the best?Do you sort by CPA or by the number of conversions?Don't fall into the trap of sorting by CPA. Your lowest CPA ad might have only spent $6.32.Create a custom metric and call it 'Ad Score':Ad Score = Purchases / Cost per purchaseAds with more purchases will have a higher score. Ads with lower CPA will have a higher score. If two ads have the same CPA, the ad with more purchases will have a higher score.This helps you rank ads against others so you know where to invest your limited resources. Hope this helps.Follow for more.
