JOB BOARD DILEMMA Why can’t we reach and recruit Jeremy using job boards? 1.
Jeremy doesn’t know enough about the position, so he won’t click a listing
2.
He isn’t looking for another job, so he won’t ever see a listing. He’s a passive candidate.
There is another place online that Jeremy spends 20% of his digital time.
FACEBOOK Facebook is an ideal platform for reaching Jeremy (and more) because it has ●

Video is now the primary content type
POWER OF VIDEO Video has the highest conversion rate of any content type ●
10x more likely to engage (share, comment) with video content than text content
●
Videos are stories - 22x more memorable than facts
Facebook ●
Over 4 billion video views per day
●
Monthly average mobile minutes viewed per user ○
YouTube - 31 minutes
○
Facebook - 182 minutes

A FEW BEST PRACTICES Do
Don’t
A/B test constantly - Create two identical campaigns and change one variable.
Set up a few campaigns with no plan for comparison.
Narrow targeting to a specific audience Everyone has at least one thing in common.
Add as many demographics as possible to your targeting.
Write a short (90 characters max) description for your ad.
Try to get every last detail in one ad. Focus on catching the right attention, deliver later.
Create a landing page for your ad, matching content. Reduce friction.
Send ad clicks to your homepage, Facebook page, a landing page that doesn’t match the ad they come from.
Include your landing page URL in the ad copy, shortened if needed.
Use a URL with tons of nonsense characters or a long string.
