You can run ads that allow business owners to increase consumer traffic and engagement. Facebook provides options to boost posts or run targeted campaign ads and share insights to help measure the effectiveness of your campaign. The ads are beneficial because Facebook is rich with consumer data and allows you to narrow down the exact audience you want to reach.\u00a0Perfect for a winning Small Business Saturday strategy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Integrating DaySmart Salon with your Facebook page or website lets the consumer learn more and even book an appointment from your site. All this information can seem overwhelming to busy salon owners. That\u2019s why we have included simple steps to follow for Facebook Ads with key strategies to help you move forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Facebook Ads 101 \u2013 How to set up a Facebook Ads Campaign<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resource: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/business\/help\/2190167061300242?id=860800950779950\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Meta Business Help Center \u2013 Getting Started with Facebook Ads<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within this section, we\u2019ll roll through everything your salon\u2019s Facebook page will need to get your Small Business Saturday ad campaigns up and running. Paid advertising using social media can directly impact the reach of your salon. Facebook ads will provide a more targeted approach to hitting the right audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Ad Type<\/td><td>Your business goal is to \u2026<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Promote your page<\/td><td>Increase people\u2019s awareness of your business or service, and get page likes.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Promote your business locally<\/td><td>Reach people near your business or a specific city.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Boost post<\/td><td>Reach people more likely to be interested in your page and engage with your post.

Create an ad account<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t have a page for your business, follow these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/business\/help\/473994396650734?id=939256796236247\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">steps<\/a> to create one. Any page you start will automatically have an ad account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019re all signed up for Facebook, a personal ad account ID will be assigned to you by default. To find the ID, go into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/adsmanager\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ads Manager<\/a> and look in the upper left-hand corner. To use Facebook Ads Manager, you must verify a payment method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2. Start Using Facebook Ads Manager<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All Facebook\u2019s ad campaigns operate through the Facebook Ads Manager tool. We suggest logging into this account through a desktop or laptop computer for easy use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to find Facebook Ads Manager is to click and bookmark <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/adsmanager\/manage\/campaigns\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this direct link<\/a>, saving you time and taking you directly to your personal ad account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To navigate to Ads Manager right from your business page, head to the left sidebar and click on any Facebook page&#8217;s \u201cAd Center\u201d drop-down arrow, then choose \u201cAll Ads\u201d from the dropdown. At the bottom of that page, there is an option to click \u201cAds Manager.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will be sent to your Facebook Ad Accounts page with a quick overview of your ad account(s). If you can access multiple ad accounts, select the account where you wish to run ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3. Choose Your Ad Goal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get started with a new ad, click the green \u201cCreate Ad\u201d button.<\/p>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.daysmart.com\/bodyart\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/09\/FB2.png\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:369px;height:140px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Facebook will take you to a page where you will be prompted to choose a campaign objective. These objectives give you numerous opportunities to refine the strategy of your campaign. Before selecting your campaign objective, you should have an idea of your campaign&#8217;s goal. If you\u2019re trying to bring in customers for a specific event, you will likely choose \u201cAwareness.\u201d This objective enables you to increase the reach of your campaign and promote your business location.<\/p>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.daysmart.com\/bodyart\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/09\/FB3.png\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:287px;height:319px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>You must create a campaign name once you\u2019ve selected your marketing objective. Your campaign name should be something recognizable, as this will help later when you run audits of your campaigns for the year.<\/p>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.daysmart.com\/bodyart\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/09\/FB4.png\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:300px;height:411px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4. Set Your Budget<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a couple of budget baselines to consider before setting up your Facebook Ads campaign budget. The average cost per click across all industries is $0.51, and the average cost per thousand impressions was $8.77 <a href=\"https:\/\/fitsmallbusiness.com\/how-much-does-facebook-advertising-cost\/#:~:text=Average%20Facebook%20Ads%20Cost%20Per,the%20date%20of%20this%20article.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">as of August 2023<\/a>, meaning you shouldn\u2019t need a budget above $15.00.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you set a budget, it\u2019s important to remember that this figure represents the maximum amount of money you want to spend. You can set your budget per day or as a total amount for the campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Daily: A daily budget limits what you spend each day on your ads. Facebook will use your set criteria to find the right place and time to show your ad to your target audience. The ads stop running for the day once your budget is reached. The cycle starts again on the next day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lifetime: A lifetime budget is the maximum you\u2019ll spend the entire time you run your ad campaign. You give Facebook a number and an end date, and it will spend the money based on ad performance. Once your budget is reached, the campaign ends.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 5. Choose Your Target Audience<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most critical part of setting up your campaign is ensuring it hits your target audience. The success of your campaigns will be determined by who you show your ad to. The audience of your campaign is based on the following demographics:<\/p>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Location<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Age<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gender<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Behaviors<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Interest<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, there\u2019s a Connections setting that grants you more advanced targeting, which allows you to include or exclude people connected to certain pages, apps or events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 6. Select Your Ad Placements<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your ad placement will prompt Facebook to position your ads how you want them to appear for your audience. We suggest using A\/B testing to discover which placement will garner the most engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If making a decision seems too perplexing, Facebook recommends using automatic placements for the previously chosen object as your intended goal: awareness. By selecting automatic placements, Facebook optimizes the post for you to get the best possible results at the lowest overall average cost.<\/p>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.daysmart.com\/bodyart\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/09\/FB5.png\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:587px;height:193px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 7. Create Your Ad<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When creating a new ad, start from a blank canvas and select your preferred format type. By now, you\u2019ve likely seen numerous ad types through your feed, but your choice will be pre-chosen by the objective you\u2019ve selected for your ad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Facebook has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/business\/ads\/ad-formats\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eight ad formats<\/a> and will recommend a couple to you based on the campaign objective you chose in Step 3. There are a lot of rules on the specs for each ad type; it would be wise to become familiar with these specifications, as uploading your content outside their requirements is a sure way to get stuck. Review <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/business\/ads-guide\/image\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook\u2019s technical guidelines<\/a> for certain formats to become more familiar with these requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.daysmart.com\/bodyart\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/09\/FB6.png\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:431px;height:306px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 8. Put in Your Order<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To submit your ad, click the \u2018Publish\u2019 button at the bottom right-hand corner of the page. Your ad will not post immediately; Facebook holds your post to properly review the ad to confirm you fit their specs and don\u2019t violate community guidelines. Should your ad get rejected, Facebook doesn\u2019t exactly give clear guidance as to why it got rejected; it might be more time-effective just to try another ad rather than expecting Facebook to provide you with guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:20px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-h-3-bigger-font-size\" id=\"h-6-google-business-profile\"><strong>6.

Social Media Hashtags<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A hashtag is a keyword or phrase that follows a hash (#) symbol. They are all over social media, and you have likely used them too. When targeting consumers for specific campaigns, such as your Small Business Saturday strategy, selecting keywords for hashtags may not come easy. It is essential to choose the right words that complement your marketing campaigns. How do you choose the right ones? Check out the designated list that we have created to help drive awareness of your Small Business Saturday event!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you identify as a small business owner, it\u2019s essential to recognize your opportunity to capture the attention of a niche audience that\u2019s drawn to supporting local businesses. As you might know, customers buying from small or local businesses can be some of the most fiercely brand-loyal repeat spenders. The key to running a brand awareness marketing campaign is to let all of those niche customers know what\u2019s happening at your business with your social media posts. Using hashtags can connect your content to these customers, who likely use and follow these relevant hashtags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The number in parentheses = total number of posts linked to that hashtag on Instagram<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Small Business Saturday Strategy List:<\/p>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>#smallbusinesssaturday (3.1m)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#smallbusinesssaturdays (32.8k)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#smallbusiness (127m)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#smallbusinessowner (26.4m)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#smallbusinesssupport (7m)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#supportlocalbusiness (11m)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#supportlocal (48.6m)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#shoplocal (84.9m)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#smallbizlife (666k)&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Industry List:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><div class=\"d-none d-lg-block\" style=\"height:10px\"><\/div><div class=\"d-lg-none\" style=\"height:5px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>#localhairstylist (81k)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#localhairsalon (19k)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#supporthairstylists (1k)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#supportsalons (1k)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#hairdeals (490k)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#salonpromotions (25.7k)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#salondeals (43.7k)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#hairgoals (24.7m)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#haircolorist (6.3m)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#beforeandafterhair (898k)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#colorexpert (264k)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#hairprofessionals (46.3k)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#healthyhair (12.8m)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#haireducation(2m)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>#hairideas (9.8m)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Local Hashtags and Geotags<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When promoting any event at your salon it\u2019s important to increase brand awareness in your local area by <a href=\"https:\/\/socialhead.io\/knowledge\/instagram-geotag\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">geotagging your posts<\/a>.
