Here’s a spending strategy that can help you scale during high competition times like Black Friday:
- Use top ads + targeting
- Use stupid high budgets
- Very low bids
- Accelerated spending
- Auto rules at ad set and ad level (turn off low performers daily, reset next day)
⬇️
The campaign shouldn’t start spending after launch.
Gradually increase bids every hour or two until you start spending.
Goal is to beat out competition early/at low cost,then let retargeting campaigns drive purchases if they didn’t already convert in prospecting.
The automated rules will do the heavy lifting here.
FB automate rules are great but you can use tools like @revealbot to take it to another level.
Will go more in-depth on this OG strategy in the substack with examples and steps.
How to retarget your email lists/segments with Facebook ads:
Import your list/segment by creating a new audience via manual upload (use FB template to properly import) or integrate with your email/crm platform using integration.
Can also use zapier if list in in sheet.
⬇️
Now that you have an audience created off your list/segment, use that as your target audience when building out a new conversion focused campaign.
Can also use your list/segments as a source for creating lookalike audiences to use in prospecting efforts.
Plus… ⬇️
You can also combine specific list segments with a matching pixel audience to make a strong target audience.
Example: combine list of purchasers last 30 days with a pixel custom audience of purchasers last 30 days
