2. Balancing Metrics Table No. Metric Suggested Metric Pair Remarks 1 Cost Per Action Action Count Action could be an impression or click or a conversion. Pair the cost per action and action count to provide context on the scale of the ads and answer the following question: “Will I get this cost per action when I scale?” 2 Click through Rate Downstream Conversion Rate A high clickthrough rate is a good thing only if the downstream conversion rate is not lower than the other campaigns. If downstream conversion rates are low, it could mean that the content on the landing page did not match the visitors’expectations or that you attracted the wrong people. 3 Cost Per Click Cost Per Acquisition Similar to the pair of clickthrough rate and downstream conversion rate - a low cost per click is only good if they lower the cost per acquisition. A low cost per click is meaning- less if no acquisitions result from the traffic. If cost per acquisition is the same as before despite a relatively lower cost per click, consider why the downstream conversion rate is lower. 4 Average Position Search Traffic Applies only to Search Engine Marketing (SEM). A higher average position may be due to the relatively lower competitiveness of the keyword. You can verify by pairing the average position with search traffic 5 Cost Per Conversi on Breakeven Cost Per Conversion The cost of each conversion is arbitrary - unless you give it meaning. A cost per conversion of $10 may be profitable to a business selling a product for $15 and unprofitable to a business selling a product for $5. The idea of the breakeven cost per conversion is to maximize the no. of conversions until the cost per conversion reaches breakeven.

3. Balancing Metrics Table Drilling down on a series of metrics to determine underlying root cause, then being able to take action. This model of actionable insights can apply in other areas of your business: Certain content on your site is more popular than others. Start from what articles are the most popular, drill into which ones generate the most conversions (which is not the same as what gets the most traffic), send alerts to your staff to write more articles on these topics. Your organic traffic from Google search is decreasing.

4. If/Then Logic To Optimization As you have learned from the Metrics > Analysis > Action framework, analysis is about understanding the possible reasons WHY a metric may have changed. Know and be comfortable with the fact that there may be more than one reason and the reason you believe to be most true could be wrong. Here are the top 7 most common analysis (if-then logic) that we make about changes in key metric pairs. To test your understanding of the logic behind why we make these hypotheses, try reversing the direction of the change in these metrics to see if you can explain logically:

5. If/Then Logic To Optimization Why is my CPC so high? Have you considered using FOF targeting on your ads? If you have 10% social percentage on the ads, FOF targeting is not being used. FOF targeting will significantly increase the CTR, which then reduces the CPF (Cost Per Fan). Walking down the bid Walking down bids gradually is smart. A new ad should start at the top of the recommended CPC range, then gradually decrease, keeping at the top of the recommended range. Why is my CPC so high? We do CPC when we want to drive clicks or some form of engagement. We do CPM when it’s a really small target, hits an existing small fan base, or is just to drive awareness. Why is my CPC so high? A high daily campaign budget can easily cause a thousand dollars of loss in a couple hours. If you want to test, create a new campaign with a low budget - then promote the ad to the production campaign.

6. Working with ads that aren’t performing well No need to turn bids down to 5 cents - if an ad isn’t doing well, bid down to 10 cents above the ad that is pulling best. So if the best Sprint ad is at 55 cents, then you can bid 65 cents, for example. That should give us “some” traffic, while a 5 cent bid is totally shut out of the ad auction. many daily impressions as people in the audience if you are at the top of the bid range, since position (not shown) does matter. For example, if are have an available audience of 100k people for an ad, then you could perhaps get 200k daily impressions until burnout. Consider an average CTR of 0.030 percent and you might get 600 clicks and 400 fans. That will last a few days until burnout, when your bid eventually falls outside the range, whether because our system progressively bids down or Facebook increases the range because our CTR is decreasing. Q: My daily budget is set to $9,000 per day, how come the ad spent is only at $1,501? A: Just because you want to spend a certain amount on Facebook doesn’t guarantee it will get spent. Inventory is finite and we are also subject to the competition for that inventory. Just like with PPC on Google, increasing the daily budget doesn’t necessarily mean we will get more traffic. Consider the size of the audience we are targeting. You will be able to get perhaps double as
