    In today's video, I decided to run a facebook ad campaign for just $50. I wanted to promote a song of mine and bring more traffic to my Spotify. I have learned a lot about promoting my music through trial and error with fb ads, and I wanted to share my knowledge!

    Hey man, good video but the results look not so good (no offense). I've run a couple of FB ads in the past and the results were much better with about the same budget. So I would recommend you to correct your targeting (reduce a country list to 6-7 english speaking countries with a decent economy level, then add facebook feed and explore to the placements AND delete all the streaming services except Spotify on your hyperfollow link - you are already targeting people with Spotify so don't give them a choice to stream somewhere else since you wanna gain streams on spotify). Hope it all makes sense, good luck with your music! Cheers

    Don't judge the success of an ad from the link clicks. Look at your the individual song on Spotify For Artists. Algeria and other countries get tons of clicks but NO LISTENS.

      @@MMXVII Glad you are getting results! But if you want to optimize and have your money go even further I would still look at what countries your clicks come from and compare it to what countries your streams come from. Northern Africa has always been a dead scene for me. But If you are happy with your results dont change a thing. It all depends on how much time you want to spend optimizing.

    I am having some issues with my Facebook ads for my music, so I watched your video 3 times. I like the part about removing the less-performing countries and age groups. The demographics and geographics are always key to success. I also ran traffic campaigns in the beginning and as mentioned in this video, they were a dud, so I performed much better with conversion campaigns.

    Good video man! I've got a question though: When you specify the target and under narrow audience, you just typed in stuff but didnt wait for suggestions. I am doing Synthwave music so I wanted to target people interested in this genre but facebook didnt give me this option. So does it mean i can type it in there, even if Facebook is not giving this to me as a suggestion? I thought this would not work.

    • @MMXVII
      @MMXVII  Před 3 lety

      Thanks for watching! And no, interests must pop up in order to use them. I suggest being a little bit more broad with your interests because its hard to get super specific. If there are some popular artists that your music is similar to, try searching their artists name, it may come up!
