Facebook and Instagram have the option of creating an advertising format called lead form. Facebook lead generation services allow customers to leave applications in a few clicks while scrolling through the news feed. And for your business, it is an opportunity to get more customers from social networks.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<h2>Pros and cons of Facebook lead generation<\/h2>\r\n<h3>Advantages of lead generation<\/h3>\r\n<ol>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Native advertising.<\/strong> Facebook lead generation form is displayed in the feed between posts and almost does not differ from them.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Fast results.<\/strong> The automatic Facebook lead collection does not require a site or profile on all social networks.

When you click the button, a lead generation form opens with already filled fields: e-mail address and name, which the user specifies when registering on the social network. However, this data can be edited based on the rights of personal data protection. In addition, the advertiser will not receive this information until the user confirms the submission of the form.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A big advantage for advertisers is the ability to edit the standard questions and add open questions specific to your product or service.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To launch a lead generation ad campaign, you need:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">full access to your Facebook business page;<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">prepared visual content.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3>How to generate leads through Facebook<\/h3>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To do this, you need to go to the Facebook advertising account and choose an account on behalf of which you will launch an ad. The next step is to create an advertising campaign with the goal of lead generation. The first time an ad is placed on Facebook, it asks for the user&#8217;s consent. A window with the terms and conditions and the \u00abI agree to the terms and conditions\u00bb button appear.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, you need to configure the parameters of the advertising campaign, namely:<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">audience;<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ad placements;<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">budget and schedule.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the Audience section, you need to select the gender, age, and geographic location of the target audience at which the future lead collection form will be aimed.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And you need to pay special attention to setting the <a href=\"https:\/\/lanet.click\/en\/target-ads-in-social-networks\/\">targeting<\/a> parameters. For effective lead generation, advertising must meet several requirements:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a valuable proposition;<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">clear suggestion;<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the offer is shown to the target audience.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can launch an advertisement for a very profitable and attractive offer but not get any effect from it. The problem lies in incorrectly selected targeting, i.e., ad display is set for the wrong audience. To avoid draining your budget, you should use granular targeting based on interests, behaviors, and demographics. It will allow you to show ads to the most interested people.<\/span> \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lanet.click\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/lead-02.svg\" width=\"1300\" height=\"731\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the Placements section, you can choose the social network and devices on which the ad will run.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By default, there is always the Automatic placements setting, which includes:<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">display <a href=\"https:\/\/lanet.click\/en\/target-ads-in-social-networks\/reklama-v-facebook\/\">ads on Facebook<\/a> on desktops and mobile devices (news feed, marketplace, Stories, articles and streaming videos);\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">displaying ads on Instagram (main news feed, recommendations feed, Stories).<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In manual mode, you can choose the necessary places for advertising and, for example, select a particular device: a computer or a smartphone.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More detailed settings appear for ads placed on mobile devices on Instagram or Facebook:<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">type of Internet connection: Wi-Fi or mobile;<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">device: phone or tablet;<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">operating system: iOS or Android;<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">operating system version.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next step will be to choose the budget and schedule for ads displaying. The item \u00abAd display optimization\u00bb offers two options: optimization by leads or clicks. There is a more effective optimization option for each type of business. To understand which is better to choose, you should first test both. It&#8217;s worth remembering that with all advertising campaign goals and settings, Facebook payment is calculated relative to displays.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The third stage is the advertisement creation, namely selecting the format (gallery, one image, one video, slide show), visuals, and writing the text. Also, in this block, you need to add a button that will lead the user to the form for lead generation.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The final step is to create a Facebook lead form, which consists of several points. But before starting it, you should choose the language and allow or prohibit the repost of the lead form on the Settings tab.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. <strong>Form type.<\/strong> Facebook offers a choice of two types of questionnaires:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00abIncreasing the volume\u00bb maximally simplifies and reduces the time it takes the user to fill out the form. In this case, Facebook automatically falsifies data, or a person may enter inaccurate information to get to the final page with an advertising offer faster. The leads obtained in this way are not of high quality.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00abReinforcement of intentions\u00bb adds a window for checking the entered contact data before sending the form. This type of questionnaire helps generate higher-quality leads.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. <strong>Brief information.<\/strong> This block is a simplified landing page. Its engaging and meaningful content will help increase conversion.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. <strong>Question.<\/strong> By default, only two fields are active in this section \u2014 full name and email address. However, it is possible to add more fields from the ready-made list or to come up with your own questions.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. <strong>Privacy Policy.<\/strong> At this stage, you must add a link to the user\u2019s agreement and give it a name. The link may take the user to a site, or social media page where the user&#8217;s consent to generate Facebook leads is posted.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. <strong>\u00abThank you\u00bb screen.<\/strong> In the final block, you can thank for the provided information and indicate the method and term of contact with the potential client. Here you can set up a feedback button. Among the proposed options: Download, Call the company, Site. Depending on the name, the button will start downloading the file you offer in the lead form, call the specified number or send the user to the site or other Internet resource with the appropriate link.<\/span><\/p>\r\n    <div class=\"read-block\">\n        <p>\n            Read also:            <a href=\"https:\/\/lanet.click\/en\/zbilshyty-kilkist-pidpysnykiv-u-facebook\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n                How to increase the number of followers on Facebook            <\/a>\n        <\/p>\n    <\/div>\n    \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lanet.click\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/lead-03.svg\" width=\"1278\" height=\"719\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to download leads from Facebook<\/h3>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes a targeted specialist or a person responsible for a business page has a question about where to look for leads on Facebook.
