Smart social media campaigns generate leads that convert into sales
Facebook & Instagram ads have been supporting brands of all shapes and sizes to smash their business goals, allowing them to scale up incredibly fast and easily. Facebook and Instagram have millions of users, and through targeted social media as, you can pinpoint the consumers most likely to be interested in your brand or what you offer. They do this with the huge amount of personal data they are able to freely and consensually collect from their users about their browsing and purchasing habits.

How to Choose the Right Social Media Marketing in Melbourne & Beyond
Facebook and Insta have a common type of users, but even so, they serve very different purposes and host very different demographics. Because of the different demographics and potential interactions each offers, different businesses can benefit from running ads through one, or both, depending on their particular services and products. Instagram hosts younger demographics than those on Facebook, and its advertising is more streamlined, whereas Facebook has a wider network being enjoyed by much wider demographic and more detailed targeting features.
To choose which social platform you want to advertise on, or if it would be better to advertise on both - it’s going to take a bit of research.
You’ll need to take a hard look at your content to figure out what sort of content you’ll use to advertise your business. The two platforms have different processes and functions for sharing and boosting media.
Studying how folks behave on social media
Facebook’s main user behaviour leans a lot more into sharing informative long-form written content like articles, case studies, blog posts and external links, while Instagram heavily favours visual content like videography and photography to engage its users to engage with it. Intriguing each of these audience pools needs a different approach, and your business may organically lend itself to one way or another. Or – it could be a blend of both, and that’s ok. If you figure out the behaviours of your ideal consumers on Facebook and Instagram, it won’t matter what you post if you’re showing it to the wrong audience.

your social media marketing goals realised
Facebook advertising agency in Melbourne
The repetitive theme of running a social media advertising campaign is understanding clearly what your goals are. You need to ascertain what you mean to achieve by running ad sets across Facebook and Instagram. This goal can be as seemingly minor as encouraging consumers to click on your ads, and therefore visit your website. The goal could also be building awareness of your business by having them engage in the content you’re posting, persuading customers to sign up to your mailing list or even hitting ‘buy now’.
Every single good ad that is posted has a simple goal that is straightforward with no kinks in the road. Trying to make the goal too complicated can muddle the message, confound your customers and press pause on your progress in the directionless mission to be a more successful business overall. We have to plan in small, measurable steps.
Facebook advertising agency – Melbourne team can do that by breaking down large goals into smaller, bite sized goals to give each of your social media adverts a defined purpose to play out. With the help of Instagram & Facebook’s innovative platforms, we can then measure how well those adverts actually are doing their job to build the bigger picture. We can directly compare two kinds of adverts alongside each other in real time with A/B testing, measuring how both perform simultaneously with slightly different messaging or imagery or deal offers to learn what kind of advert from your brand is really going to get your customers excited and engaging with you!

Time to grow us some customers
Warm audiences have interacted with your brand already when they were at the ‘cold’ stage, and now they’ve warmed up to the idea of engaging with your business more because they’ve been reading your content, maybe they’ve signed up for your mailing list and seen some more messages, and now they’re convinced you’re legitimate. Legitimacy creates confidence in a consumer, and they’ll be paying attention now. We’ll send them messages that are a bit more friendly, cheeky or persuasive, because we know each other now and it’s cool to be more familial. When we get this stage, they are more likely to spend money and time on your brand. It’s all about what you do no which decides whether they choose to use your services, or your competitors. You’ve introduced them to a need they may not have known they had - and you want them to solve it with you instead of shopping around.

Create Natural Interest with Facebook & Instagram Ads in Melbourne
When we create any kind of campaign, we never want to start by showing all of our cards at once. We don’t know what stage they are at in their relationship with your brand – they might never have heard of you before, so we don’t want to be a bit cheeky and tell them to buy now, immediately. You can introduce your brand to potential customers through social media ads, and gradually nurture them into paying clients. By targeting the right audience at the right time, you can appeal to consumers at every stage of their relationship with your brand.

How to advertise to warm and cold audiences
In advertising, we refer to audiences as warm and cold, and we talk to them a bit differently. Cold audiences don’t know you yet or how you can help them (remember the term ‘cold calling’), and so you’re not as likely to be able to sell them anything – even if it’s something they actually want. They have to trust you first. Heard the term ‘facebook scam’? We need to convince them that you are anything but. We do that with different messaging in specifically targeted ads. You don’t need to yell out to attract the customers, but just to build a bit of common interest with the audience – no pressure, maybe a nice offer in exchange for a mailing list sign up, or a little bit of info about what you do or sell. If it’s something they need, they’ll naturally take notice and check it out.

Hone in on local customers with geo-modified Facebook & Instagram Ads in Melbourne or beyond
Within your radius of servicing, there are a tonne of smaller specific areas that can be targeted to catch a more persnoalised audience. You can adjust your social media marketing to be geo-modified, targeting users who are listed to be in that area. That means when they are interested in something based on their browsing and purchasing habits, they are going to see your brand, and see that it is in their direct vicinity – and be more likely to use your services over a more generalised service. It’s not unlike casting a smaller, tighter net over relevant leads, rather than a gigantic net with big holes in it. An unlocalized ad will have a wider reach, but it won’t be as relevant to potential customers in a specific area. For example, someone looking for social media marketing in Melbourne would be more interested in an ad specifically for that area than an ad for all of Australia. Facebook and Instagram are more likely to show a more relevant ad to users, so it’s important to consider when creating an ad campaign.
