Benefits of Facebook Ads in Digital Marketing

Facebook ads allow brands to target specific types of customers who are interested in their niche. More importantly, it allows brands to test different target audiences and learn what creatives resonate with them, discovering their most popular products.

The value of Facebook ads is there, all you need is a trained team ready to find it for you. Facebook advertising is one of our favorite ways to help any small business or e-commerce brand to increase visibility, learn more about their audience, and increase sales.

Here are three reasons why we love using Facebook ads:

• Facebook Ads Are Affordable - Compared to many other forms of advertising, Facebook ads are pretty affordable. Dollar for dollar, it is hard to beat them on straight-up price. But there is something else to consider. A well-conceived ad campaign that generates better-than-expected results ends up being even more affordable. It has been our experience that a lot of first-time advertisers are so pleased with the results that they end up dedicating a certain portion of their digital marketing budgets to Facebook ads.

• Many Advertising Options - Alongside affordable rates, users get the benefit of testing many different types of ads. Advertisers can choose video ads, canvas ads, and even ads tied to search to test what works best with their audience. Different Facebook ads are designed to achieve different goals. A strong social media marketing campaign picks and chooses ad types based on what that campaign is designed to accomplish. Having so many options give marketers opportunities to make the best use of Facebook ads with every social media campaign. That is the way marketing should be. Having multiple options that can be applied on a case-by-case basis facilitates maximizing results every time.

• Targeting and Exposure - The bottom line? Facebook ads are hard to beat when you’re talking about targeting and exposure. Looked at solely through the lens of exposure, no other platform in the world gives social media marketers a larger audience than Facebook. Billions of people around the world use the platform daily. This allows marketers to pick and choose from many different audiences and allocate their budget accordingly. Targeting gets the most out of an organization's marketing dollars by ensuring ads are put in front of the people who are most likely to buy the organization's products and services. That alone makes Facebook ads worth investing in.

A big part of paid social media marketing is paid advertising. There are lots of free things marketers can do to build impressions and improve reach. But at the end of the day, targeted ads with a well-crafted message get the job done better than anything else. Therein lies the value. Facebook knows this. It is why they put so much effort into encouraging business users to choose paid advertising.
