How to Run Facebook Ads

1. test the waters
Generally, sellers start with a $5 – $10 budget and then make a data based decision after 24 – 48 hours of running their ads. Opinions vary based on ideal target audience sizes and the ad type you select, but narrowing your target audience to 50,000 – 400,000 people is a good range to start with.
duplicate Ad Set
when you find a working ad at $50, don't edit it, since that will reset the algorithm, instead duplicate
Time Duration
Run ad set for at least 3-4 days
Increase

Mobile App Ads / mobile identifiers
Target mobile apps with IDFA or AAID Ad Exchange supports passing the Identifier for Advertising (IDFA) or the Google Advertising ID (AAID) in mobile application inventory bid requests.
The IDFA has two key features:
- It can be reset by the user at any time.
- Users can opt out of all remarketing by enabling a device setting called "Limit Ad Tracking" (LAT), which restricts advertisers from using the IDFA for behavioral advertising.*
Semi-Permanent Device Identifiers Third-party cookies, which are commonly used on the PC web for tracking, tend to have short life spans – anything from one to thirty days on average. By contrast, the IDFA doesn’t change unless a user decides to change it in their phone settings. Few consumers feel a need to take this action, so IDFAs can offer a better foundation for a persistent and anonymized consumer profile.
Using IDFA for Ad Tracking When consumers take actions because of ads, like clicking a banner, playing a video, or installing an app, media companies can pass the IDFA with information about the consumer action that took place because of the advertising. Most media companies do pass IDFAs. Some media companies, including some large social networks, do not pass device IDs to advertisers, but do allow you to target specific IDs within their properties. Many companies also leverage IDFAs as a tool for fraud detection. By monitoring the stream of ad actions and associated IDFAs, advertisers get important signals that may indicate advertising fraud.
Android ID – this was the old unique identifier available on Android devices prior to the KitKat OS release. Mobile devices running KitKat or an earlier OS release will only have access to this device ID. Typically advertisers want the newer Android Advertising ID, but if the only device ID available is the Android ID then they may accept that instead. Check with your advertiser to see if they want the Android ID if there is no Android Advertising ID available.
Android Advertising ID (aka Google Advertising ID) – this is the current unique identifier used for Android devices.
UDID (aka Universal Device ID) – this was the old unique identifier for iOS. It is no longer used and has been replaced with the iOS IDFA ID. Apple no longer accepts apps in their store that access this identifier.
IDFA (aka identifierForAdvertising) – this is the current unique identifier for iOS and is what should be used to identify devices.
IDFV – (aka identifierForVendor) – this is a publisher specific identifier. The same identifier is used for the same user on the same app on all devices. But the same user on a different app will have a different IDFV.
Ad Spend


Budget Pacing - conservative vs aggressive

Budget Allocation
40-50% of the marketing budget goes in campaign planning and content creation, 20-30% goes in paid advertising, 10% of the marketing budget goes in workforce marketing, 10% goes in software and tools, and 5-10% in events.
Variance
- Factor in your company’s age. Newer companies should allocate more to marketing, to help speed up growth.
younger companies (1-5 years old) should spend 12-20% of gross revenue on marketing. Older companies (assuming you’ve established some level of market share) should commit 6-12%.
Advertising Spend
6% to 13% Retail Industry 21%
Marketing agency WebStrategies puts the average at 11.4%, although it has B2C budgets considerably higher than for B2B businesses.
Display advertising Display advertising is closer to traditional advertising than a channel like Google Ads. You've certainly seen display ads before, lurking down the margins of webpages, at the top below the site's header image or running along the bottom.The downside of display advertising, of course, is that it can seem obtrusive and annoying. It also has a much lower clickthrough and conversion rate than Google Ads.
