Is Facebook Advertising a Good Investment for Businesses?


social-brand-chat

This week on Social Brand Chat presented by KXIC we discussed a question from Don Stanley who asked, “I’ve heard lots of mixed information about Facebook advertising. Is Facebook advertising a good investment for small businesses or are there other tactics that would work better?” Great question. Let’s chat about this.

With brands of all shapes and sizes seeing decreased organic reach, many are considering Facebook advertising. But is it a good investment? Especially for small businesses with limited resources? It’s not hard to see that Facebook’s tactics are paying off as their stock has enjoyed an up-tick since implementing these changes. During this week’s episode we discuss the pros and cons of Facebook advertising.

For this week’s social media news, we discussed this week’s #EntreFest in Iowa City. I speak Friday morning (5/16) at 10:50 AM. Hope to see you there!
