Facebook
Advertising.

While Facebook is an incredibly powerful social media channel, you are missing out on tapping into its full potential if you are relying on organic social media content and posts alone.

With it’s hyper-targeted audience options and the ability to nurture customers through the purchasing journey with you, Facebook advertising provides a great way for businesses and brands alike to reach more of their ideal customers, and in doing so, work towards achieving various business goals.

And it’s not just us that think so – a survey of social media marketers found that a solid 96% consider Facebook the best social media platform for return on investment, and this was across both B2C (business to consumer) and B2B (business to business) companies.

The good news is that anyone with a Facebook Page can advertise on Facebook, and there are a range of different advertising options that can help with just about any business goal!

Facebook Advertising Audience Targeting Options

With 2 billion monthly active users on Facebook globally, and a solid 15 million active users in Australia alone, you can rest-assured that your customers are playing on Facebook.

Facebook’s advertising tool allows you to create target audiences of people based on age, gender, hobbies and interests, job titles, industries, behaviours, age of children, location, and more!

You could create an audience of Parents in Australia, who have children aged between 5 and 12 years, who like football.

Or an audience of men who are employed, and are interested in luxury items.

Or an audience of women within 40km of the CBD of Adelaide who became engaged in the last 3, 6, or 12 months….

Or maybe you’d like to reach people who have scrolled to a certain depth on a particular page on your website?

The possibilities are limitless!
