Tracking Your Facebook Ad Metrics
Today’s video is all about how to track your metrics within your advertising accounts.
If you work in the Lead Gen industry and are spending money on running ads on the Facebook platform, then you need to make sure you are on top of your metrics at all times.
If you’re not having much success with your ads, you may see a sudden spike in your cost per lead.
You’re going to freak out, right? In the midst of panic, you could decide to shut off an audience you’re targeting. You could even shut the ad account down completely, forcing you to start over.
Yeah… you need to calm down.
Take a deep breath and analyse the data before you make a decision that you can’t undo. You don’t want to lose everything you’ve worked for!
In this industry, you need to be sure that you don’t put too much emotion when it comes to your ads. Instead, you need to look at the data and logic to see what the problem is.
If you are serious about running a substantial money-making campaign, then you need to make sure you understand everyday data and metrics.
You don’t need to spend an excessive amount of money hiring a data specialist or fancy add-on packages to keep your spreadsheets in order. Instead, just set up a simple system to keep track of all your data and stay on top of your lead gen game.
Here are the things you will need to do:
How To Effectively Track Your Metrics
Set up a Google Drive Tracking Sheet. That’s it!
Within the tracking sheet, you will list all the metrics that you want to track when it comes to your advertising accounts.
These are things like:
- Ad Spend
- Cost Per Thousand Impressions
- Cost Per Click
- Landing Page %,
- Cost Per Video View
- Cost Per Lead
And so on.
This Tracking sheet can sometimes have over 30 different metrics that are important within your agency. At the bottom, you will have a summary and average figure of all the data you’ve collected.
Having this Tracking sheet will be able to show you over time what is really going on with your ads. When a problem occurs with one of your advertising accounts, refer to the sheet and see what changes are happening before you jump to conclusions.
Keeping your tracking sheet up to date is critical. Most of the time, when something goes wrong in a campaign, it can be easily spotted. Simply refer to the tracking sheet, and see what small tweak you need to make to get everything back on track.
Without a tracking sheet, it is impossible to remember everything that is going on, especially if you are running multiple accounts for different clients.
You can see what metrics you need to track by referring to your Facebook Ads Manager.
Check your metrics first thing in the morning, every morning. It’ll take 15 minutes of your day, and it will save you money and a massive headache later on.
Having this sheet works wonders for making rational decisions. If you’re serious about lead generation, you need to have this system in place to scale your business effectively. There’s nothing like having a cool head when the doo-doo does hit the fan.
