Here are some strategies to generate qualified leads with Facebook Advertising:

Increasing your Facebook Ad’s Click-Through-Rate

Use Good Images:

• Include a person (usually a smiling, relatable woman) or use an interesting stock photo/
• The 2nd and 3rd-most successful ad images are babies and animals (this is pretty much true across all social media marketing platforms)
• Test an odd or funny image. These make Facebook users do a double-take and encourage them to read your headline and engage.
• Remember K.I.S.S. (Keep it Simple Stupid): Avoid complex images that Facebook users will just gloss over.

Have a good Headline:

• Dollar and percentage signs, the word “Free”, and your Logo (if it’s well known) will attract the eye of Facebook users.
• Focus your headline on being eye-catching and communicating value. Your body copy will encourage a click and tell users what to do.

Use Color and Detail:

• Don’t use blue or white, as these colors blend into the Facebook color scheme and users’ eyes will just skim over your ad.
• Instead, use orange, green and red: eye-catching, bright colors.
• Borders; If your logo or the image you want to use is blue, keep the same image but throw a colorful border around it.
• Borders, shadows (even increasing the yellow and green gamma on your image) can have an effect on your Facebook Ad’s click-through-rate. Remember the smallest details can have the greatest effect.
