strategies

purchase event in 7 days
process
  1. create a custom audience of users who have made a PURCHASE event in the past 7 days
  2. retardget this audience with an Awareness (REACH) objective campaign
  3. at the AD SET level, set the Frequence Cap to 1 impression every 3 days
  4. Create an ad with a selfie video (best engagement results by far for us)

    • say something like: Thank you so much for your purchase from [company name]! We are so excited to have you as part of our community! If you need anything, please feel free to reach out to us! Thanks again!
why does this work
  • extremely effective
  • people appreciate being appreciated!
purchase event 30 and 60 days

create two Custom Audiences of users who made a PURCHASE event in the past 30 and 60 days.

30 days
  • Let customers use your product/ service for 30 days before asking for a review via email
  • this eliminates the users that are unhappy or already claimed a refund in the first 30 days
60 days

      • videos
