This article is about Facebook advertising tips for wedding filmmakers.
Some of you may have tried some of these Facebook advertising methods already and failed to see any results or return on investment.
This may be because you jumped straight into advertising on Facebook before your wedding filmmaker business was ready.
There are several steps that need to be implemented and in place before you start advertising your wedding video business to your target audience with Facebook Ads.
1. Is Your Pricing and Branding Aligned?
2. Have you optimized your website and Social Media Accounts?
3. Are you adding optimized articles to your website every month?
4. Do you have a good online presence?
5. Have you set up an automated lead-generating system, including email sequences?
6. Do you have a system for collecting venues, vendors, and past client referrals?
7. Are you taking part in expos?
8. Have you reached out to any wedding blogs or online magazines to feature your past weddings?
If your wedding filmmaker company is new, I strongly urge you to get these steps in place before paying for any Facebook ads.
3 Reasons Why Your Facebook Advertising for Wedding Filmmakers is Failing:
1. You’re using the wrong Facebook Ads settings
2. You may be following the wrong strategy
3. Your target audience does not trust your business yet
I know the last one sounds harsh. But it’s so true.
Your wedding business needs to have a great online presence, it needs to have a good name, and it needs to have great reviews and a good portfolio.
