Facebook ads have undergone many changes as of late, from ‘Call Now’ buttons, to the Ad Manager mobile ad tool and more, which all seeks to provide your business with further targeting options.
1. Call now button which connects you to Mobile users
The new call now button is a great way for prospective customers to call you directly from your ad. This effectively means that customers no longer need to navigate to your site in order to find contact details.
What does this mean for your business? This takes out a whole section of the funnel by sending people straight to you. This is simplifying the whole process; therefore you are able to catch the audience at the right place when it matters.
On the other hand, having a ‘Call Now’ button means that your business needs to manage good timely phone responses to ensure a smooth transaction.
2. Facebook Product Ads sync with your sales catalogs
Facebook have released their new mobile friendly product ads, which allows retailers to sync their catalog with previous Facebook advertising efforts.
These ads are based on a set template, which pulls certain products, images and other attributes from your catalog based on the keywords you have provided. How does this benefit your business? It eliminates the need for you to create new content for each ad. These ads also work for both Newsfeed, mobile and sidebar ads therefore you only need one template to cover all ad display formats.
3. Carousel ads come to mobile
Most of you will already be familiar with the Carousel ads, which have shown to be hugely successful for advertisers. This ad format allows you to showcase your brand and products using multiple images all within one post.
