Yes Facebook and Instagram ads do still work, I’ll tell you why AND how you can create an even better experience for customers.

How do I know these ads still work? I'm still making purchases myself from ads!

Last month a friend introduced me to a natural deodorant company. I went to their website to have a look but didn't purchase.

Next, I was retargeted on Facebook and Instagram with a few ads. I read the comments to see what people were saying.

However, I still had a couple of objections.

Then, they hit me with a free trial ad.

Great!

Now I had the opportunity to try the product before I purchased for the cost of shipping (£2.99 in case you're interested!).

They sent me 3 different scents to try.

By doing this they answered by two main objections:

1️⃣ Does it work? (Biggie and the answer is yes!)

2️⃣ Which scent should I buy?

So, how could they have made this a better experience for me?

By adding a short, fun quiz to the ad via an automation.

They could have found out what fragrances I like and then tailored the 3 scents they sent me try.

Benefit to the brand:

✅ They don't waste samples that might not get used because the customer doesn't like the fragrance

✅ It could increase the order value if the customer loved more than one scent and purchased multiple items (especially if it saves them multiple shipping costs)

✅ Customer maybe ready to sign straight up for a subscription 🙌🏼

Benefit to me:

❤️ I would get to try 3 different fragrances that I would likely be guaranteed to love

❤️ I would know which scent/s I want to order from choices personalised to smells I like

❤️ I don't receive my samples and wish they'd sent me something else to try!

Would you enjoy a more personalised free trial?

Do you have a proven product and an audience that buys?

I'm often approached by businesses that want help running Facebook and Instagram ads who have neither of these.

They believe Facebook ads are a silver bullet that will immediately help them make lots of sales (usually on a tiny budget).

My response to these businesses is that paid ads should amplify what is working organically for them.

When they have a product that people want to buy and the sales to prove it, that is the time for paid ads!

They should also have great organic data by this time on what creative and messaging has been working for them.

This saves spending money on acquiring that data through paid ads before sales can be achieved.

Of course there's always testing involved with paid ads but why waste money on ads for a product/offer that nobody wants to buy?

My advice to these businesses is to prove their product first and then come back to paid ads.

Top tip for using Instagram DM Automations:

Use conversation starters.

These are a way for your customers or potential customers to start a conversation with your business by utilising a list of frequently asked questions.

You can have up to 4 questions.

These will lead users through a conversation flow to answer the questions. It can also be used as an opportunity to continue the conversation that can lead to a sale or further customer support.

Did you know that...

🔥 50% of Instagram users are more interested in a brand after seeing an ad

🔥 130 million users tap on Insta shopping content every month

Are you taking advantage of this?

Did you also know that...

🗣 50% of DM conversations are started from Stories

The most popular reasons that Instagram users message brands is for a product enquiry and support.

So doesn't it make sense to run Story ads to start more of those conversations?

To use those conversations to give value and support to customers 🤔

Instagram DM Automations will elevate your Story ads with conversations that answer questions, recommend products, and create an instant, fun customer experience 24/7.

What's not to love?

There's a lot of talk about zero party data.

By using conversations on it's platforms, Meta is utilising this and supporting businesses to make sales directly on these.

Instagram DM Automations are a great example of this. You can makes sales directly in the DMs as well as deliver lead magnets and build both your Instagram and email lists.

You can tag and segment your Instagram list so you can send the right message to the right audience. This capability will be invaluable once recurring notifications arrive for Instagram this Autumn.

You'll be able to deliver segmented campaigns to your Instagram list, just as you now do with email list.

Exciting times 😉

Kiehls achieved 30% more qualified leads than other channels and a 20% conversion rate from consultation to sales by using Instagram DM Automations.

They wanted to foster a closer connection to their customers and having a very active Instagram community meant that their customer service team had a hard time keeping up with all the messages from posts, DMs, stories...

Implementing automations so customers received an instant response and a seamless handoff to the customer service team as needed meant that no leads were lost.

“Instagram is a perfect avenue for us to connect with our customers especially since many people use Instagram to discover new beauty products. However, it was difficult to follow-up with people or respond to potential sales leads because we did not have the right tools. By implementing Messenger API for Instagram, we have not only scaled our conversations through different entry points such as Instagram Feed, Instagram Stories, mentions, and direct messages, but have also improved our response time to customer inquiries.”
