Buying Models
• CPC – cost per click• CPM- cost per thousand
CPC is the lowest risk model but you need to know:
• Target cost per lead (or CPA)• Expected CCR
Remember: FB clicks include likes and shares so conversion will be lower than search, email etc
Bid = £0.30
Lead = £3.00(10% CCR)
Facebook Advertising

Ad Formats
• Side ads (mainly FBX)• News feed ads
(unpublished posts, suggested posts, app installs etc)
You can also link internally (e.g. to FB app/tab) or externally to site/landing page
First News used unpublished post ads linking through to an external LP – avoids ads showing in own audience news feed.

Testimonial – Kelly Matcham, Joint Publisher
“Having worked with TTH for a few years and seeing high volume orders through email and newsletter campaigns we were keen to test their new
Facebook platform as it enabled us to get much more targeted with our reach.
It’s still in it’s infancy but we are thrilled with the results so far. Conversion rate doubled compared to the email campaigns bringing the CPA down and just as
encouragingly the DD step up retention rate is high. We are really excited about working with TTH to further test and refine our Facebook targeting.”
Summary
• Facebook ads have been proven to work very effectively for First News and other niche titles
• Perfect targeting niche audiences due to advanced targeting options available
• Important to think socially and engage audience with social offers – free issue lead gen campaigns work well
• Advertiser pages need to be monitored for feedback (e.g. where is my free issue?) – quick response essential
• Technology helps to streamline work flow and reduce wastage• Device optimisation can make a very significant impact on end
results
