Caroline Thomas – Harnessing the power of Facebook Ads & How to set up a new life in paradise.
This episode of the Ideas Lab Podcast is a deep dive into the most powerful platform today for getting you new leads and new sales for your business online.
That platform is Facebook Advertising and our guest is founder of Social Accelerators and expert in Facebook Ads, Caroline Thomas.
I interviewed Caroline on a sunny day sitting outside at her home in Gran Canaria and we cover a lot of ground.
Caroline will explain the 3 different types of ads and when to use each one.
The default settings in Facebook advertising campaigns that will actually trip you up and why video is so powerful to use in an advert.
She will also explain step by step how she used Facebook ads to build an entirely new email list for a client and to fill her own networking event at a bar in Gran Canaria.
Finally we have a conversation about what it takes to choose a new country to live in and set up your life from scratch as Caroline did.
