There is a lot of crap out there that will tell you that ads on Facebook are a waste of time and money, but I have cracked the code.

Now, it may take a little bit of time, but the benefits... THEY ARE GREAT!!

If you aren't using Facebook Insights Tool to study your target market, then I don't know what to tell you, other than START USING IT! It can really help you target correctly. Start a fan page, invite a few friends, I had 47 friends following my fan page before I boosted a post, and several valuable posts with pictures...

Remember to using eye catching pictures!

I am not going to go into detail about my target exactly, but when studying the market, add the direct market and 3 or 4 immediately related markets to the list for the boosted post. Make sure you nail down the age range, locations, and keep the ad under $5.00 a day. Like I said, I used $30 over a 7 day period.

Okay anyways, I am all over the place here, but hopefully you're following along semi-okay.

Here are my results and today is still the last day of promotion...

Reach: 86,413 people
Post clicks: 6,680
Comments: 98
Shares: 421
Like over 2.8 thousand

And here is the crazy thing, I didn't even add a website to my page until the last two day and this will amaze you.

Website visits 1,200
Sales as over 9:00AM 6/15/16 for those two days... 79..

Even if you are promoting a product on amazon for $50, that would have been $158 AT THE 4% margin... but the percent actually goes up to 6% after you have 6 sales I think it is? I don't use amazon, but I did in the past.

The point of this post is to say this.. Facebook promotion does work, but you have to create value. If you are promoting a page of post on your website, make sure it's a value post, then at the end of the post/article on your website, you can suggest a product and link to your review..

If you wanna video chat with me so I can show you how I do it, just let me know!
