Do the the colors catch your attention? Or maybe it’s the image? Are you someone who mostly looks at videos?The point is, we all know that the visual aspect of a Facebook Ad is important -- because it’s how the Ad actually grabs our attention in the first place. Still, when it comes to setting up our own Facebook Ads, I know a lot of people spend a ton of time focused on planning, budgeting and targeting their Ads. And the content of the Ad is sort of an afterthought.That’s why I invited my friend Jasmine Star to join me on Episode #106 of The Art of Paid Traffic...Jasmine is a marketing strategist, a branding expert and she’s also been voted one of the top 10 wedding photographers in the world. Today, she’s joining me on the podcast to share how her creative approach to Facebook Ads helped her attract, qualify and convert crazy-high numbers during her very first online course launch.Jasmine and I talk about why she’s super strategic about the visual content she uses in her Facebook Ads. Plus, we dive into the specifics of how she creates image and video Ads that capture her ideal audience’s attention (the key word being IDEAL).If you’re someone who has room to improve when it comes to the visual content you use for your Facebook Ads (I’m raising my hand here!), this episode is going to give you exact strategies to make improvements right away. ‍‍ ‍‍Please click here to give an honest Rating/Review for the show on iTunes!

We all want to create and run killer Facebook Ads. But if you’re using Facebook Ads as part of a marketing funnel to drive measurable leads and sales for your business (which I hope you are!),  there can be quite a few elements to strategize and optimize. ‍‍Cut your lead gen costs in HALF with my $37 mini-course–NOW only $17!Visit The Art of Online Business website for Facebook Ads help‍‍ ‍‍ ‍‍For your Ad to perform successfully, you should be strategic and intentional about the image or video, the ad copy, your target audience and a lot more…And once your Ad is up and running, you’ll want to keep an eye on it and make improvements as needed to maximize your success.  Still, it can be tough to know where to start when it comes to improving your Facebook Ads.

Heck, we can all benefit from having another set of eyes on our work from time-to-time.So, today on The Art of Paid Traffic, I’m going to walk you through my assessment of a Facebook Ad created by FB ADvantage student, Alex Afterman.

And share with YOU, a critique of what I like and areas and suggestions for improvement. I cover a ton of actionable tips today that you can apply to your own ads.

As entrepreneurs and online marketers, taking risks is simply the nature of the beast when you want to be successful. ‍‍Cut your lead gen costs in HALF with my $37 mini-course–NOW only $17!Visit The Art of Online Business website for Facebook Ads help‍‍ ‍‍ ‍‍Sometimes you have to shake things up a bit, see what works...and then keep doing more of what works. Today on The Art of Paid Traffic, I talk with one of my students who is testing what I’d say is an unconventional strategy, marketing a high-ticket live event offer to cold traffic, directly off of a webinar. Her name is Heather Hubbard of thelanguageofjoy.com and she’s a lawyer turned lifestyle entrepreneur.  She coaches female lawyers to find work-life balance without sacrificing their professional careers.Last year she hosted her first ever live retreat weekend, exclusively for female law firm partners. This year Heather is gearing up for her second annual retreat to be held at the luxury Miraval Resort in Tucson, Arizona. And tickets to her event are $3,500.I wanted to have Heather on the show because, like I said, she sort of ignored the “conventional approach” when she decided to sell her high-ticket offer to cold traffic using only Facebook Ads and webinars. And so far, she’s seen great success. Plus, she saved herself a ton of time and stress in the process. The stuff Heather and I cover will give you a unique perspective on how you can take calculated risks and avoid costly mistakes with your own sales funnel strategies. ‍‍ ‍‍Please click here to give an honest Rating/Review for the show on iTunes!

We’re switching things up on The Art of Paid Traffic this week! ‍‍Cut your lead gen costs in HALF with my $37 mini-course–NOW only $17!Visit The Art of Online Business website for Facebook Ads help‍‍ ‍‍ ‍‍On today’s show, you’re going to hear an episode I recorded a little over a month ago with my good friend Amy Porterfield on her podcast, Online Market Marketing Made Easy. As soon as you get into it, you’ll understand why I just had to share it with you here on AOPT. During the show, Amy and I cover one of THE most common questions we both get (sometimes multiple times a day) by our students and podcast listeners...How much should I spend on Facebook Ads if I want to have a successful webinar?In the past, Amy and I have both always answered this question on a case-by-case basis. Because the truth is, there’s a lot you have to factor in when you’re calculating an ad spend that will allow you to hit your specific revenue goals. While we still don’t have one “right” answer to this question, Amy and I were able to put our heads together and come up with a formula that makes it a whole lot easier to determine a ballpark budget for your Facebook ads. ‍‍ ‍‍Please click here to give an honest Rating/Review for the show on iTunes!
