ACTIVITY

33. Facebook Advertising
We run a travel business that wants to sell an upcoming trip to London to young
singles.
Our business is headquartered in NYC but we have trips leaving from San Francisco,
Seattle, and Austin, TX as well.
The vacation package is not cheap so not everyone can necessarily afford it.
Based on these criteria try to come up with a Potential Reach of 50,000
Facebook users.
Remember, in order to get close to the goal you can make your own changes and
assumptions BUT ultimately the audience profile should closely match people
who would possibly be interested in taking this trip.

users into an audience based on their in-app activities (eg – purchasers in one audience,
abandoners in another, etc.)

website and whenever someone visits (from anywhere) they automatically receive a

Image Tips
Be eye-catching and relevant.
Consider your audience.
Colorful, attractive, easy to see.
Consider the composition of the photo – the
key thing shouldn’t be in the background.
Make sure the image and text relate and
make sense together.
You can also add more text to the ad itself.
Although Facebook enforces that no more
than 20% of the image can be text.

55. GOOGLE URL BUILDER
If you’re driving to an external website, make sure you tag URLs with Google URL Builder to see
site usage metrics from your ads.
You can bit.ly these links after they’ve been tagged to keep them short.
