STACK TEXT ROW 2Notable Changes to Facebook in 2017
10. Facebook’s New Algorithm
● Facebook changes stemmed from fake
news virality.
● New algorithm gives priority to friends
and family, likely decreasing reach of
pages & publishers.
● This change can also potentially affect
space for businesses to advertise.
Notable Changes to Facebook
11. Simplicity comes to Facebook
● Automated rules to ease campaign optimization.
● Beta launch of ‘Dynamic Creative Optimization’ to some advertisers.
● Power Editor and Ads Manager merge.
● New campaign types to better reach your target audience: Local
awareness, Messenger...
Notable Changes to Facebook
12. Engagement is down
● CPMs likely to increase due to more demand
- High emphasis on high quality ads.
● Low value or short term businesses are in
dangerous territory.
● Stop thinking of advertising strategies, start
thinking of ACTUAL VALUE.
● DR ads might suffer as a result. Spend more
on brand awareness etc.
Notable Changes to Facebook
13. Facebook is now video first
Facebook loves video and that’s going to continue. Heavy push on live video,
and new video formats like square and vertical. The biggest opportunity we
see, and hear from the internal FB team is Instagram stories.
● Square videos give you 78% more screen real estate.
● Instagram stories adoption is still an issue for FB internally.
● Short videos is crucial.
Notable Changes to Facebook
14. Sales funnel nurturing
Change from a platform built around engagement and low-interest new traffic
to a platform which can turn leads into sales.
● Cold custom audiences
● Retargeting

lower cost-per-click on Instagram
than Facebook.
In this example, from a promotion
run within the ecommerce industry,
CPC from Facebook is 60 cents.

23. Facebook vs Instagram
CPC from Instagram is 35 cents.
CPA is the same. Landing page
conversion rate is slightly lower.
The takeaway here is to try
both and assume nothing.

Reallocation of Budget
In this campaign, limiting the age
demographic to 18 – 45
immediately increases ROAS
from 3.43 to 3.94.
Consistent evaluation of who and
where your ads are being shown
often reveals opportunities for
improvement.

Adapting to the elongation of the buyer
funnel
26. Custom Audiences
● Can be more segmented due to
longer buyer funnel
● Can target: # of interactions, whether
they engaged with a post, or frequent
purchasers
Facebook Analytics
● Ability to drill down path to purchase
● Tailor advertising spend on where
conversions originate
Facebook Analytics
Elongation of Buyer Funnel
27. The solution to increased competition
● Advertising costs keep increasing
● No more ‘single campaign’ tracking, but ‘Project’ tracking
○ Broader campaigns with light goals are cheaper
○ Narrow campaigns with hard goals are more expensive - BUT more effective
● Funnels require multiple touchpoints
● Track user behaviour - not just conversions
Elongation of Buyer Funnel
28. Tactics
● Multi-point funnels
● Light Conversions
○ Try multiple goals: brand awareness, video views, clicks to
website…
○ Try multiple placements: mobile, Instagram, right hand
column, etc…
● Hard Conversions
○ EFFECTIVE retargeting
○ Complex Audiences: from device, category, referral path...
○ Up-selling / Cross-selling (Dynamic Product Ads)
Elongation of Buyer Funnel
29. Full funnel targeting
● Really think through your funnels.
● Don’t go for the hard sell initially.
● Prime your target with brand
awareness ads first, then get closer
and closer to your offer.
Elongation of Buyer Funnel
31. Landing page optimization as
important as ad optimization
● Consistency between ad and landing
page
● Value-oriented messaging
● High-quality images
Elongation of Buyer Funnel
32. Nurturing leads into sales: inbound
● Multiple retargeting campaigns based on blog topics
● Optimize for impression
Nurturing leads into sales: outbound
● Industry-based list of cold leads
Elongation of Buyer Funnel
33. Elongation of Buyer Funnel
Facebook Messenger ads
● Starting a conversation with Facebook users before
they get anywhere near a website
● Allows for multiple touchpoints
● Keeps users comfortable - less sales pressure

Mobile Advertising on Facebook
35. Mobile Advertising on Facebook
Create content with a
mobile-first mindset
● Design creative with a mobile-first
mindset
● Majority of advertising spend is now on
mobile
● Topic & Trends report identifies
conversation peaks and trends, which
advertisers can use to plan their
creative and calendars
36. Key Focus on 2017
● Local Awareness
○ Call
○ Directions
● Messenger ads
○ Start Conversation
○ As a placement
● Instagram Stories
Mobile Advertising on Facebook
37. Our experience:
Create (square or vertical) videos with mobile in mind.
Don’t create another landscape video. Use different
aspect ratios for each ad within the same ad.
If you don’t catch attention within 2-3 seconds you’re
out.
Videos isn’t everything. Try mixing video + image ad in
the same ad set to increase delivery. “Quirk” in the
algorithm according to FB internal.
Mobile Advertising on Facebook
39. Mobile Advertising on Facebook
Our experience:
Cost-per-Action objective targeting results in 70-80%
of ads being shown on mobile or tablet.
(70% of impressions and 67% of click-throughs in this
example) -->
