🎉Client Win🎉 By focusing on garnering UGC from influencers and repurposing their photos into Reels, we were able to help our client increase Engagements by 164% and Impressions by 262% on Instagram this year (and we're still growing!). While most of the videos had a few thousand views, this simple before and after photo reveal received 103K Views!

➡️ Bottom Line: You don't need super professional video clips to create Reels. Leverage your existing content, add animation, get creative, and have a little fun.

For anyone who needs to hear this👇 I received an email a while back from a client that had just started their online business and was 2 months into posting social media content that said:

"I have worked hard to keep up the posting consistency, make the branding congruent and vary posts/stories/reels each week. I just don't understand how we can work this hard and get so little engagement."

➡️ Organic growth and engagement on Instagram is a marathon, not a sprint -- it can take a very long time to see results and requires a lot of patience and consistency. It also takes a while to understand what's working, optimize your efforts, and start to see an impact.

Don't give up, and keep showing up because there are people who need to hear your message -- even if they haven't found you yet.

The Best Facebook & Instagram Targeting Audiences to Leverage This Holiday Season⤵️

① REMARKETING - Reach your warmest potential customers which include: Website Visitors, People who have taken an action on your site (Add to Cart, Initiate Checkout, etc.), Customer + Subscriber Lists, Engaged Fans (Facebook & Instagram), People who have engaged with your Catalog + Shopping, Video Viewers, and Leads.

② BEST PERFORMING PROSPECTING AUDIENCES - Use the best audiences from your 2022 campaigns. If you are new to advertising, start broad (IE: People in the US 18-65+) and then start adding 1-3 interests based on performance.

③ LOOKALIKE PURCHASERS - If you have a large amount of data for purchasers onsite, create a lookalike audience so Facebook can find people similar to those already buying from your business.

④ DYNAMIC PRODUCT ADS - Let Facebook find the best audiences for you by showing your products to people who might be interested in them.

4 Quick & Simple Ways to Repurpose Your Existing Content⤵️

First, start by choosing one of your most engaging topics or most frequently asked questions. Let's try: "How much should I spend on Facebook Ads?"

① Create an Instagram Feed Post with a simple text-based graphic that says "How to Determine a Facebook Ads Budget". Include how to do this in the caption. (Bonus points if you animate the graphic & turn it into a video!)

② Take the caption from the post above and turn it into an Instagram Carousel Post. For example, Image 1 would be the title: Here's How Much You Should Spend on Facebook Ads. Image 2+ would include the exact steps you shared in the caption above but now on an image. Change the caption to short copy that says something like, "Wondering how much you should actually spend on Facebook Ads to see results? Swipe above."

③ Talk through the steps from the caption in step 1 an Instagram Reel Video. Save the raw video file to share again on other placements.

④ Share the raw video file that was used in the Reel to Instagram Stories. Then save this to a highlight so others can see!

WHY IT WORKS👇:
① Not everyone sees your posts the 1 time you share it...
② You have more opportunity to reach people where they prefer to consume content
③ You get your most valuable message, offer, and story in front of more people

Pumpkin spice season is back and that means the holiday shopping wars are on. ☕️ Amid increased inflation and rising costs, many consumers will likely start their holiday shopping earlier this year to make the most of discounts and spread their spending over several months. This means brands should start planning their holiday marketing campaigns earlier and consider launching discounts, bundles, and promotions well in advance of Black Friday + Cyber Monday.

Here are my top tips for running a successful holiday campaign on social media + ads in 2022.

One not so fun part of social media -- addressing complaints, customer service, and negative online reviews... 😳 However, managing your online reputation and receiving testimonials is vital to successfully growing your business online. Here are a few best practices to keep in mind:

① Respond to all reviews, comments, and messages -- both positive and negative.

② After an issue has been resolved, reach back out to customers to update the review or leave a comment letting them (and others) know what actions were taken to provide a resolution.

③ To gather new testimonials, implement an online review initiative where asking for testimonials and feedback is integrated into your community management, customer service, email marketing, and sales/onboarding processes.

④ Make it easy for fans by providing concise, specific instructions on how they can leave a review for your business.

As these strategies are implemented, monitor customer feedback and adjust your strategies accordingly.

When to DIY vs. Outsource your Facebook & Instagram Ads⤵️

💻 DIY:
• If you haven't run Facebook Ads before, it might seem faster to hire an expert, but it could also cost a lot of money with few results. Start with a course or a Social Ads VIP Day so you can learn the basics of what goes into setting up Facebook Ads and how you can use them for your business.

• If you don't have clearly defined, realistic goals, wait to hire an expert. The person you outsource to will be building your ad campaigns according to your goals so if your goals are vague or unrealistic, you could be wasting money on both the ads and their fees.

• If the cost to hire an expert is more than your monthly ads budget, try the DIY route first so you can spend more money on ads and less on management. (In my Social Ads VIP Day, I help set up your ad funnels and show you how to manage them after launch. This way, you still get expert support but can save on a monthly management fee!)

💸 OUTSOURCE:
• If you're familiar with Facebook Ads and have done some tests before, but you need help scaling your growth, an experienced professional can deliver strategic insights and strategies.

• If you have defined, realistic business goals with a set advertising budget, hiring an expert can help you achieve your goals faster. Outsourcing is also a great option for more advanced campaign set up, audience testing, and creative testing.

• If you're already bringing in sales, can afford the monthly management fees, and want to leverage more of Facebook's diverse ad features, it's time to hire an expert.

→ Whether you decide to DIY or Outsource is up to you and your business goals, but I hope this helps save you time and money determining when it might be the right fit.

"When can I expect to see results with Facebook ads?"

From my experience, patience is key — regardless of how much you're spending, it still takes time for the algorithm to learn what's working and for new campaigns, ad sets and creative to deliver results.

Make sure you set a threshold for your business to understand if your ads are working towards your goals or not meeting your expectations.

This could be things like a certain number of days your ads run, a set amount of ad spend, or a specific number of impressions or clicks.

5 Things I've Learned in 5 Years of Business⤵️

① Building a successful business takes a village. Tell your mentors, colleagues, and clients how much you appreciate them regularly.

② Stay focused -- don't get distracted by projects that aren't aligned with your business/personal goals and values.

③ Setting boundaries is necessary for work/life balance and managing client expectations.

④ Always be willing to learn and open to new tools, ideas, channels and more.

⑤ Take the vacation, spend time with friends + family, end Fridays early -- your business will still be here on Monday.
