want to specifically name the
people you are looking for. This will
draw in the people you want.

need to create the right call to
action (CTA) to get them doing the
task you want. This could be
something like filling out a form,
calling, or buying something. Be

you give them clear and concise.

couple varieties. Thanks to many tracking tools you
can track how well your ads are doing. You might

will be hard to tell what is making an ad work. By
testing one or two changing variables between the
ads you will have a better way to pinpoint what is
working.

a time. Usually a month or so might give you a good
idea of what is working. Then you can take key
components and test something new. The result,

that your audience might miss out on your ads.

or that you can allocate more money in
some areas. This means more exposure.
