Spending money does not necessarily mean success. You have to create a good strategy that suits your business objectives.

If you have already invested in some campaigns and haven’t had the results you expected, you should probably make some changes to your strategy.

So, the real question is: How to create Facebook ads that convert well?

Here are five tips that will help you improve your Facebook Ads strategy to increase your sales and reach your pod business audience:

Tip #1 It's all about targeting

Targeting the right audience with the perfect message is the key to create a successful campaign.

  • Facebook remarketing:

Someone entered your store, added products to their cart, but did not complete the purchase. Remarketing is effective because it allows you to interact with the target that has already visited your store.

Here, it would help if you tried custom audiences. Custom audiences allow you to create five different types of target like customer file, website traffic, app activity, offline activity, and engagement.

Each of them will surely help you to reach your target in different ways.

  • Lookalike audiences:

Lookalike audiences it's related to custom audiences.

  • Location, age, gender. You cannot create the same ad for 18-year-olds as for 45-year-olds.
  • Interests. If you are selling something peculiar like women's basketball shirts, you should add all their claims.
  • Behavior. Add the target that it's already looking for your product or similar.
  • Detailed targeting. Add as many details as possible!

Tip #2 Conversion Ads
