1. Set up a Social Media Presence 
   ‍Authenticity is crucial to social media presence. If you're a brand today, there's a good chance you're on social media in some form. But what’s important is, does your brand have a vibrant social media presence? 
   Set up your profile with your company details. Select a profile photo that reflects your company and includes your contact information, such as your website, email address, and phone number. Post on a frequent basis to keep your account active. When consumers click on your profile from your ad, you may establish credibility by including updated videos and photos about your brand. 

2. Set your Advertising Goals 
   ‍Starting an advertising campaign without identifying your goals is akin to shooting darts aimlessly at a dartboard. Everything you do, how you do it, and which channels you use is defined by your goals. Some of the most frequently accepted goals of an advertising campaign include marketing a product, increasing brand or product recognition, reminding customers to use the product, changing a belief about a brand, promoting direct sales, gaining a seasonal push, building a brand image, and so on. So, before you begin creating your advertisement, keep in mind that identifying your goals is essential. To plan and achieve your goals, use the "SMART" tool. 

3. Choose the Appropriate Audience
   ‍One of the most crucial aspects of your business is the consumers or target audience. Furthermore, all of your marketing efforts are directed solely toward your target audience. Similarly, your advertising plan should be targeted to and directed towards your target market. It will assist you in developing campaigns that will appeal to them. 

4. Determine your Budget 
   ‍Believe it or not, advertising isn’t free. Yes, some approaches, like organic traffic and referrals, are free; but, they are insufficient. Funding is required for the design, management, and execution of an advertising campaign. To know how much you can spend on paid ads, your organization must have a budget in place. The size of your business, the aim of your campaign, the media you use, and the duration and reach of your campaign all have an impact on your budget.

5. Focus on your Brand's Values & Messages 
   How often consumers favor one brand over rivals reflects the perceived value of a brand. Brand value is crucial because when consumers consider a brand to be different and to connect with their personal beliefs, it provides a significant competitive advantage. Keeping your brand values and message in mind will help you establish the tone for your advertising campaign, making it more successful by allowing your audience to better relate to your brand. 

6. Curate your Ad Creative 
   This is where your creativity steps in. You will decide how your creative ad should look alike and what could attract your audience. It should be bold enough and eye-catching to grab your customers on board. The Facebook ads platform suggests not including more than 20% text in any ad type. Previously, an ad with more than 20% text would not even be permitted to run, however, this has since changed to more of a suggestion. 

7. Build your Page Links 
   ‍The next step is to build or connect links you want your audience to reach. Enter the URL of the website to which you want to drive more traffic. Make sure to specify a particular tracking URL with UTM parameters for this ad if you're using marketing automation software, so you can track its traffic and conversions.

8. Optimize your Ads 
   ‍With most businesses now investing in digital marketing, competition for the attention of internet users is growing increasingly fierce. You must put forth a lot of effort to reach your target audience. You can do this by optimizing your ad campaigns. Ad optimization is the process of using data to build and modify a digital ad campaign in order to improve its performance. To achieve the highest ROAS, you must ensure that your ads adhere to best practices for optimal audience reach. You can still surpass your competitors and drive sufficient revenue-generating traffic to your company.
