How to Use Facebook Retargeting in CRM?

Setting up Facebook Retargeting in CRM is just a matter of couple of steps. We have explained the steps below, following which you can set up the retargeting campaigns-

Step 1: Create a Facebook Ads Account

The first step to setting up Facebook retargeting is to create a Facebook Ads account. You can do this by visiting the Facebook Ads Manager and following the instructions to create an account. Once your account is set up, you will have access to all of Facebook’s advertising tools and features.

Step 2: Create Custom Audiences

Once your account is set up, begin creating custom audiences. To do this, go to the Audiences tab in your Ads Manager and select “Create Audience.” From there, you can choose “Custom Audience” and select “Website Traffic” or “App Activity” to target people who have visited your website or used your app. You can also use data from your Education CRM to create custom audiences.

Step 3: Install the Facebook Pixel

The next step in setting up Facebook retargeting in CRM is to install the Facebook pixel on your website or mobile app. The Facebook pixel is a small piece of code that allows you to track visitors to your site and create custom audiences based on their behaviour. You can install the pixel by adding a few lines of code to your website’s header or by using a plugin for your website’s platform.

Step 4: Create Targeted Ads

Once you have set up your custom audience, you can begin creating ads that target these specific individuals. To create an ad, go to the Ads Manager and select “Create Ad.” From there, you can choose your ad format, target audience, and budget. When creating your Ads, it’s important to use eye-catching images and compelling copy that resonates with your target audience.

Step 5: Use A/B testing

Facebook also allows you to use the A/B testing feature to test different Ad variations and see which performs best. By testing different ads, you can see which Ad resonates best with your target audience, and adjust your ad campaign accordingly.

Step 6: Create Lookalike Audiences

Facebook retargeting in CRM allows you to use data from your CRM and create “lookalike” audiences. This feature allows you to target individuals who have similar characteristics to your existing customers. To create a lookalike audience, go to the Audiences tab in your Ads Manager and select “Create Audience.” From there, you can choose “Lookalike Audience” and upload a list of your existing customers or select a custom audience to base your lookalike audience.

Final Takeaways

In comparison to most campaigns aimed at cold audiences, Facebook retargeting Ads can result in increased ad engagement, brand ad lift and awareness, click-through rates, and conversion rates. Instead of only aiming to construct Ad campaigns for cold audiences, marketers should spend more time concentrating on this fantastic potential.
