Facebook Survey-We want your input!


We interrupt this blog to bring you this Public "Survey" Announcement! LOL My husband and I went over the marketing plans for Art of Eloquence for next quarter.  The topic of pay per click advertising on Facebook came up again and we thought we'd get your input.  If you have a minute, we'd love it if you'd answer 4 questions for us. 1. If you are on Facebook, do you notice the ads at all? 2. If you do notice Facebook ads, have you ever clicked on one? 3. If you saw an ad on Facebook for a company you knew and liked, would you be likely to click on it? 4. Do you think we should advertise on Facebook?  Why or why not? Please leave us your responses and ANY other comments with your thoughts about our advertising on Facebook.  We'd LOVE your input! In fact, we'd love to get as much input on this as possible so....if you have any friends who are on Facebook, would you please send this link to them and ask them to take this quick survey? As the Bartles and James commercials used to say, "Thanks again for your support!"  ;D You may now return to your regularly scheduled blog!

    1. Yes
    2. No
    3. I’m not big on clicking anyone’s ads. But that’s just me.
    4. Yes, because you could target to your desired market. Yes, because it’s cheap advertising. No, because I’m not sure of its effectiveness. Yes, because it increases name recognition, which increases trust in your company.

    I found a couple of articles on the subject:

    I’ve noticed and even clicked on ads before. Most of them were junk but a few were legit. If I knew the company and liked them I would click but now I am leary about clicking on unknowns since they’ve ended up being junk so far. It wouldn’t hurt to advertsise on FB. Most people aren’t as skeptical about that as I am. IMHO. :)

    I very seldom notice the adds and have only clicked on a few of them EVER. I’m sure those adds are keeping us all up and running on FB so perhaps we’d all better start paying more attention. I had google ads on my old blog but it didn’t seem to generate much either. Let us all know how it goes. Your survey is a good one. I’d suggest you post it on Sodahead.com

    1. Yes
    2. Yes
    3. Yes
    4. Yes, mainly for the sheer numbers who use Facebook. The ads ARE targeted, however. They know I’m a history fanatic so, most days, Stonewall Jackson’s face is staring right at me! They also know I’m an addicted knitter and there’s usually some type of exotic yarn begging me to buy it on top of Stonewall. It’s still a numbers game, though. I think there would be lots who would click on AOE ads on FB!!!!
