Crush Solo Ads

11/24/2020

I wanted to see what FB Ad in 2020 looked like.

Here is another reason why FB Advertising is terrible. Unless you have a big advertising budget you will always get crushed doing it.

As you can see I got charged on CPM basis (per impressions). First of all my Reach (which i don't control btw... ) was barely hitting 500 per ad set; my audience size was 2M. This led to very low traffic to my funnel even though the CTR was above 2% (which is amazing so my ads were on point.)

Only 109 people landed on the opt in page. Of those 109 only 8 opted in. It costed me $400 of advertising. I have paid close to 3$ for a single click.

Just to give you an idea... if you invest $400 of advertising with me you would know in advance your CPC around 0.6 cts per click. Assuming an industry average lead conversion of 20% you would have grown your email list to 133 opt in.

133 opt in (ME) vs 8 opt in (FB ad) for same budget.

Comment if you want to get HOT clicks.

As an affiliate, everything changed for me when I discovered Solo Ads. I was paying a lower cost per click than anything I would be paying from other advertising channels. Also my opt in conversion went through the roof because I was receiving traffic from a traffic provider who ALREADY has an audience that follows and trust him/her.

Referral business is the most effective lead generation there is.
Solo ad is the internet equivalent of a referral lead generation.

Great article about the business of Fake Clicks. Fake clicks cause billions of dollars of wasted ad spend.

Not a single traffic source is immune to fake clicks. Even Facebook is involved in delivering fake clicks. I have run FB ads in the past where the discrepancy between facebook data reporting and my sales funnel builder would report to me was huge. It just did not make sense and the traffic I received behave like bots.

Make sure to use all filters possible to screen fake clicks and always make sure your data is clean enough for you to make smart business decisions. We live in an era of data analytics and analyzing fake reports and data because of mislead clicks can sink your business.

Be a vigilante, my friends.

The Santa Claus marketer.

This is the affiliate marketer who can generate high email open rates that lead to high traffic conversions to his/her landing pages. This increased eyeballs lead to high opt in rates above 25%. The affiliate marketers who can consistently target this opt in rate is on course to generate great leads and sales.

The Santa Claus affiliate benefited from the snowball effect that comes with targeted traffic from a warm audience (hot traffic, the easiest traffic to convert).
