How to Optimize Your Relevance Score<br />
On Facebook<br />
Most martial arts schools have a Facebook page and do a<br />
bit of marketing through it. Schools promote their events,<br />
programs, classes and achievements and other activities to attract<br />
more attention to their schools.<br />
When you add ‘paid advertising’ to your marketing mix, there<br />
are some new concerns you’ll need to be conscious of.<br />
Facebook provides a tool that you can use through the Facebook<br />
ad manager called the Relevance Score.<br />
So what is Facebook’s Relevance Score? Your Relevance Score<br />
is a measure of the “quality” and engagement of your ads. Essentially,<br />
based on the audience you’re targeting, and the ad content<br />
you’re using, how ‘likely’ are these ads to get ‘engagement’ from<br />
the audience.<br />
This score significantly effects your cost per click and the frequency<br />
of you ad being shown on Facebook.<br />
A Relevance Score can be between 1 and 10 and any score<br />
from 7 to 10 is considered a good number.<br />
Once an ad has been served at least 500 times a score will be<br />
assigned to it. The number of impressions has been set by Facebook<br />
for deciding the expected audience reaction to your ads. Still<br />
the number is not based on actual feedback, but upon Facebook’s<br />
algorithm of an anticipated audience response and the number<br />
can change daily.<br />
So if you want to save money and get higher ROI, the relationship<br />
between your target audience and your ads must be good.<br />
The key to accomplishing this is hyper-specific targeting of you<br />
audience and secondly designing your ads to meet their exact<br />
needs. Even after clearly targeting your audience and creating ads,<br />
you will have to frequently monitor them and analyze how they’re<br />
doing to keep your score up.<br />
Staying relevant to your market is the key to your school’s<br />
growth and if you’re a marketing expert with Facebook, then you’ll<br />
do well. But if you’re in need of help you can speak with a Facebook<br />

How to Insure Your Sales Pages Produce!<br />
If your sales pages are not generating conversions you need<br />
to pay attention to this article. There are some basic elements<br />
that must be on a sales page to convince a prospect to take an<br />
offer. Check out these 7 tips on how to make a sales page that will<br />
Increase Your Enrollment.<br />
1. An Eye-Catching Headline Is A Must<br />
80% of viewers skim headlines on a sales page before deciding<br />
whether to read the rest. To catch the eyes of visitors the headline<br />
must be relevant, preferable short, and catch the reader’s attention.<br />
2. Engaging Visual Elements Are Needed<br />
Many studies have revealed sales pages with video or images get<br />
more conversions than sales pages without them. These elements<br />
have to be interesting and relevant to the content on your sales page.<br />
3. Copy Designed to Sell Is Necessary<br />
Your sales copy must consider the end user and whether or<br />
not they will be interested in reading it. You have to focus on<br />
satisfying the needs and wants of your audience and draw them<br />
in with solutions.<br />
4. Be Sure to List the Benefits<br />
The golden rule of sales is listing benefits rather than features, but<br />
pages mistakingly do exactly the opposite. Prospects want to know<br />
what’s in it for them and that list compels them to take up an offer.<br />
5. Without A CTA the Page Is Pointless<br />
No sales page is complete without a Call To Action to facilitate<br />
the sales process. Your CTA should be placed above the fold, so<br />
visitors can see and access it without even having to scroll.<br />
6. Keep Navigation Links To A Minimum<br />
Don’t build sales pages like other websites pages by limiting<br />
navigation links to prevent opportunities for visitors to click and<br />
exit the page. If visitors leave, they might not return, which equals<br />
lost sales.<br />
7. Providing Some Evidence Builds Trust<br />
Include reviews or testimonials on your sales page will instill<br />
greater confidence in your audience. A visitor will often look for<br />
how others benefited before determining whether or not to take<br />
your offer.<br />
There is a science and skill to selling and generating conversions<br />
from a sales page. If you have the time and knack for it, then<br />
you can easily build school growth building pages. If you need<br />
help, our industry has plenty of experts to serve you exceptionally<br />
