Listen now
Description
If you’ve ever tried running Facebook and Instagram ads to attract new donors, you may have realized it isn’t all that easy. Truth is, an effective paid ads strategy for nonprofits trying to attract new donors is a lot different than running ads for for-profits that are selling products. Yet most of the information you’ll find on running online ads is geared toward for-profits. On today’s BG Live, we’re getting into how you can start to acquire new donors with Meta ads—without wasting a ton of money. Ben Stewart from Louder gets into how you can use lookalike audiences for Facebook & Instagram Ads to help you attract new leads, new event attendees and new donors. It’s an easy place to start, because it allows you to use what you know about your current donors to help you find your future supporters. Ben is on a mission to help nonprofit organizations apply digital marketing best practices so they can raise more funds and do more good. With experience in live event production, vocational ministry, and digital marketing, he helps purposeful brands improve their messaging, marketing, and websites so they can increase their impact on the world. — ➡️ Join our FREE training on how to create compelling fundraising messaging that leads donors to action and raises more money, from more people, more often—simply by changing the words you use: https://www.5minutefundraisingfix.com/register  🤔 What else would you like to know about improving your fundraising and becoming an effective nonprofit marketer?
