Facebook Marketplace now offering Ads - listen in to my interview on the Jim Blasingame Small Business Advocate show as we discuss this latest feature from Facebook. Here is the link to the show:https://www.smallbusinessadvocate.com/small-business-interviews/kathy-perry-29500
Facebook Marketplace is similar to Craigslist and eBay and now there will be ads. Remember when crafting your ads that this is different than advertising in the Newsfeed. In the Newsfeed you are suggesting that they might want your product and in the Marketplace people are already looking for something.
When you are optimizing your Facebook Ad in the Ad Manager this is only available at this time with the following campaign objectives: Reach, Traffic, Video Views, Conversions, and Catalog Sales.
Make sure the Marketplace is checked in your Ad Placements. You will have to have the Facebook Feeds selected in order to use Marketplace as an option in placements.
Recommended sizes for images from Facebook are:
single images - 1,200 x 628 pixels
carousel images - 600 x 600 pixels
However, remember that videos do better than images.
If you need any help with your Facebook Advertising, please feel free to give me a call at 813-789-9580.
To Success!
