8 Facebook is no longer “Free.” You can build a free Page, but in order for your posts to be visible, you have to pay to boost them. Or have interactive fans (likes, comments, shares).
BOOST
9 Major social networks offer DIY ad tools to reach highly targeted audiences based on demographics (age, education, location) and psychographics (interests, behaviors, actions).
ADVERTISE
Invite them to Like Invite people who have liked one of your Page posts to like your Page. Click on the number of likes your post received. You will see who liked your page or you can click on the “Invite” button next to their name.
Retargeting Facebook Custom Audiences lets you “remarket” to people who have visited your website. Install a snippet of code (pixel) on your website. Present your ads on Facebook to people who have been to your site. Facebook.com/advertising
Lookalike Audience After setting up Custom
Audiences from your website, create a lookalike audience to target new people similar to your website visitors by creating a lookalike audience. Ads Manager > Tools > Audiences, click Create Audience, select Lookalike Audience from the drop-down menu.
Facebook Events Try using Facebook Events to
promote not just actual physical events but also online “events,” promotional campaign “events,” contests, giveaways and offers. People can “RSVP” or “Join” the “event” giving you more direct access to communicate with them.
Compelling content is just the beginning.
Make actions and conversions your priority!
Don’t just attract. Engage and activate.
