Run Facebook Ads like Molly Pittman

By Cinty Buxton, Triple Zero Property

Like you, I have been inspired by Molly Pittman’s insight into Facebook Advertising and her success with the platform. Molly has personally spent over $8 million on paid traffic channels like Facebook, Google, and Twitter. Her ‘Traffic and Facebook Ads’ workshop this April in Brisbane City was sold-out.

In the one day, she clearly outlined how to build and scale a complete traffic system for business.

My family business had always outsourced Digital Marketing but we were tired of spending money with agencies who didn’t understand our needs.

I needed to take responsibility for the marketing success of our business. As a ‘newbie’ I doubted my capability as a Digital Marketer. I have read blogs, listened to podcasts and subscribed to every email list but taken NO action.

 

Molly Pittman helped me build a Facebook Ads campaign I am proud of

Keep it simple! To run a successful Facebook Ad campaign you need to know

• How to write a successful ad copy
• Understand Facebook objectives
• Target the right audience
• Boost social proof

How I fast-tracked my Digital Marketing Strategy

I have researched so many tools and strategies on Digital Marketing that I was confused and didn’t know where to start. With the knowledge I had gained on Facebook Ads at Molly Pittman’s workshop, I turned it into actionable content the very next day. I wrote the ad copies, researched the target market and STARTED.

Digital Marketing is not a mystery

Molly explained that online consumer behaviour works in the same way as a real store.

It looks like this…

I love reading books and buying all sorts of books.

There are a few ways that I will do this:

1. I am walking down the street on the way to the doctors and I walk past a bookshop. There are new displays in the window, and I go in and have a quick look. I don’t have time to make a decision and leave without buying anything.

2. I am walking down the street after kids sport on Saturday and I see the bookstore is open. I browse for half an hour and buy.

3. I wanted a particular book for my friend’s birthday, so I researched where I could buy it (google), found out that it was stocked in my local bookstore and went in and made the purchase.

4. I am going on holidays and remembered the new release displayed in the window, so I go into the store and buy (no electronic devices on the beach!!)

5. The school holidays are here and I want my kids off their screens. I remember they have a great range of young adult novels, so I go back and purchase two more.

6. My Aunty is staying with me for the weekend and she loves books as much as I do. So, I take her for a coffee and… yes, to the local bookstore.

If you understand why they’re visiting, and where they’re coming from… you can automate the sales process with multiple traffic campaigns! Molly Pittman

How to take the Headache out Traffic Planning

Similar to walking into the bookstore, draw from your experience and map out a traffic plan for your business.

Don’t suffer from information paralysis like me. Get started by using a framework to guide you, such as Molly’s ‘Traffic System Planning Canvas’.

Over the last few years, we have paid thousands of dollars a month to an agency who was not delivering what we expected out of Facebook advertising: solid leads. I am now monitoring the metrics of the campaign I initiated.

No more wandering around in digital ‘Wallyworld’. Here goes!
