Sometimes it can be challenging to get seen and reach your customers on social media organically (without paying). Advertising on social media is a way to increase your reach, engage and convert new customers that may not normally see your content.

It can be used to drive visits to your website, increase your followers and even buy directly from you.

In this webinar, we’ll cover the basic principles behind advertising on social media, the many different types of ad that you can use and the pros/cons of each.

Who Should Attend:

Business owners and entrepreneurs in the West Midlands.

Anyone using, or considering using, social media to increase their own visibility online, or increase the brand awareness of their company. This seminar is valuable to people new to social media as well as more experienced users.

What you'll learn:

  • Why advertising on social media is good value for money
  • The structure of a campaign – what’s required
  • Producing creative that generates better results
  • Managing the ongoing campaign
  • How to measure results

Outcomes

You will leave with an awareness of the different social media advertising options, the relative costs and have some ideas of what type of ad works best for your business. We're excited to have you join us.
