How much money should I spend on Facebook Ads

  • I get this question a lot. 
  • So what I would do is to look at my conversion rate. 
  • I will reverse engineer my numbers
  • I will ask myself
    • Out of X number of leads, 
    • How many appointments would I set? 
    • How much sales would I make?
    • SALES ÷ NUMBER OF LEADS = VALUE PER LEAD
  • Example when I am selling my course for $997
    • Leads: Out of 100 leads
    • Appointments: I will set 50 appointments
    • Sales: I will make 10 sales X $997 = $9,970
    • Value per lead = $9,970 divided by 100 = $99.70
    • This means, so long as I am getting leads below $99.70 per lead, it will be profitable
  • So normally, my first $100 is used for testing. I set that aside and test different audiences, different copywriting, different advertisements.
  • Then I will look at what’s the cost per lead. So long as the cost per lead is LESS than the value per lead, I will keep scaling that campaign infinitely.
  • I will scale it until it breaks 
  • It will only break when either
    • I have too many leads that I can’t handle
    • I overwork myself
    • My ad cost is more than my sales
