5 Tips to consider to launch eCommerce Facebook Campaigns

Here are 5 tips to help you in the planning of your next eCommerce Facebook campaign.

1. Select up to 5 products to start

Do not start using too many products for your campaign. Select your top selling products to try attracting as many people as possible. Then you can replace with a product you are trying to sell more.

2. Set a correct goal: Sales, Awareness, or Conversion

Most stores will choose Sales, but you might decide to grow your email list in this case conversion might be more optimal. If you are just in the beginning stages of growing your store making people aware of your store and the products might be a good option.

3. Select the correct target market for your products

Make sure you select the right age group and demographic for the products you are selling. You also need to keep in mind are you selling to the end users or people who buy for others, such as moms. For example, you might want to run a separate ad for each audience if the product you are selling will be used by teenagers but purchased by moms.

4. Create attractive ads for the target market

Ads need to be appealing to the demographic. So following the example above you will want to run two separate ads one for moms and the teenagers.

5. Adjust the landing page to be friendly and readily convert to a sale

Some product pages are incredibly unfriendly as landing pages and do not have enough information. So for the products you are choosing to market make sure to have all the images and information possible to convert to a sale.

Below we provide some good and also not so good examples of Facebook ads with the corresponding landing pages.

Airtransat.com Travel in Israel Ad

This a good landing page which is very specific to the ad and it is action driven

Moo.com Unique Business Cards

There are too many options on the landing page in order to be able to act. There should have been a landing page for each type of card.

Beneful.Ca Save $3 discount ad

In this example, the “Save $3” promotional ad leads directly to the landing page that offers $3 discount with one click

Purina Facebook

Grocery Gateway

The Facebook ad is a brand awareness banner that leads to a landing page that offers to Shop Organics. There is a confusion between the purpose of the ad and the expected Call to Action (CTA).

Amazon

The Facebook ad is a product advertising aimed to sell the pocket printer. The landing page should be the product landing page, not the search page. Shoppers might get distracted with other products on the page and not complete the sale.

Conclusion

Don’t start a campaign  unless you can do well at least the following elements:

  1. Create attractive landing pages and ads
  2. Monitor daily and adjust the campaign
  3. Add proper tracking to make sure you can attribute the sales properly to the Facebook campaign

Including Facebook in your marketing mix to reach highly connected consumers become even more crucial today. It is imperative to dedicate the required time and resources to have good results. A lot of people think that Facebook marketing is about post boosting only. In reality, Facebook marketing is a highly evolved tool that can bring an excellent contribution to your sales if done right.
