Why Use a Facebook Ad Template?

Creating Facebook ads is hard to do. You have to write persuasive copy. You need to create (or find) a great image or video. And you have to put it all together in a cohesive way that follows Facebook’s rules.

That’s where this template comes in. It will put your ad-creation process on rails. So if you’re a beginner, you won’t make rookie mistakes. And if you’re already experienced, you’ll save time and creative energy. Or it can help you with new hires: send them this guide and they can start designing ads right away.

All while getting better results from your advertising campaigns.

How to Create Persuasive Facebook Ads

Facebook is the world’s largest social network. If you include Instagram and Messenger, the platform has more than 2x the users of the next most popular network. But with that huge reach comes huge competition. In addition to using this template, here are some other things you can do to get an edge.

  • Use the Facebook Ad Library to see the exact ads your competitors are running. Then, try a similar but improved approach… or a totally different one.
  • Use a tool like Canva, Stencil or Snappa to create images for your ads. (Tip: see all of Facebook’s supported ad formats and specifications here.)
  • Match your ad copy and imagery to your audience targeting. A 25-year-old who’s interested in entrepreneurship and Gary Vaynerchuk should probably see a different ad than a 55-year-old who’s into journalism and the New Yorker.
  • Use the Dynamic Creative ad type. This lets you include different versions of each part of your ad. Then, Facebook will take those raw materials and find the best performing combination for you. It’s like split-testing, on autopilot.
