- How to optimize for conversions when you can’t put the Facebook pixel on the website you’re sending traffic to
- What strategy you might use for a 6-month Facebook ads campaign that’s promoting a local gym
- What’s a “good” CPC? Is my CPC too high on this ad set?
- Should you use the 1-day or 7-day click attribution window when your Objective is Conversions?
- Then I’ve got some WordPress plugin ideas for you that make it super easy to place the Facebook pixel on your site.
- And more!
This episode is chock full of actionable stuff.
I hope you can take what you learn and immediately put it into action in your business.
Using the Social Proof of Your Facebook Ads
There are two strategies for finding the Ad ID for your Facebook ads.
For ads that are already running…
- You can go to Page Posts in your Ads Manager menu
- Then, select “Ads Posts” in the left column.
- Find your ad in the list that you want to use in other Ad Sets and check the box next to it.
- Then in the “Actions” dropdown menu, select “Create Ad”.
Strategy #2
As you’re setting up your ads, and want to aggregate social proof among your ads, you can use the Ad ID in Power Editor…
- Set up your ad and Publish it. Once you publish it Facebook generates an Ad ID.
- You can also copy the Ad ID from the URL field in your browser (when you’re in Power Editor). Look for “ad_ids=” then a 13-digit number. That’s your Ad ID. Copy that Ad ID.
- Then, when you’re setting up new ads, instead of creating a new ad, select “Use Existing Post”, click the Enter Post ID link and paste your Ad ID there.
And there you have it!
A couple different ways to use the social proof of your Facebook ads in new Ad Sets.
