MARKETING Let’s Chat Paid Ads

[HoosierLife]

I did this one time like 5 years ago and I swear my organic reach was never the same again.

Could be coincidence, but my tinfoil hat told me that once you pay, they know you will pay, and will nerf your reach until you pay again.

It’s like Facebook tax for novice digital marketers.

It’s like Facebook tax for novice digital marketers.

Funny, not so funny story.

I oversee the Facebook ads/social media, website, automation etc for my church.

I actually pushed to get it started and paid for it for the first 8 months. Preacher is sold on the process now and budgets $1000+ a month for digital marketing.

We have a guy that uses AI to chop up sermons and turn them into reels we post on FB, TT, YT, and Insta.

We take the best ones AND ones that give a clear presentation of the Gospel and turn those into ads.

Some are just video view ads. $5 a day. Then $25 a day to conversion ads.

Basically get them to opt in from a sermon clip with the CTA “want to attend a church like this? Click learn more now” or something like that.

Then it drops them into an email/text sequence to schedule their first visit.

A lady from the church calls all the opt ins as well.

All that to say, we have 50,000+ impressions each month, and we rarely get any negative comments (we’re in Indiana).

Then back in June, someone posted a flyer of an upcoming special speaker/event. Our annual fireworks and fishing tournament (in the church’s retention pond) after the evening service.

And we were getting dozens and dozens of the most hateful comments. Seemed out of the blue. Then Preacher’s phone started blowing up with prank calls.

Finally figured out that one of the church secretaries boosted the post. Didn’t even boost it locally. Boosted it nationwide.

Most of the views and comments were coming from California and New York. The FB algo obviously decided to show the boosted post to more crazies from the coasts, which lead to more and more negative comments and prank calls.

Once I realized what had happened, I turned it off and had a talk with everyone to not boost posts lol.

If we want to promote an event, tell me. We have a guy we pay for making creatives and and I’ve overseen millions in ad spend.

I’ll take care of it.

Dont boost posts.
