Moreover, Facebook rolled out a tool specifically designed for lead generation called Facebook Lead Ads.

Enlarge and customize your audience
There are different ways to enlarge and customize your audience through Facebook Lead Ads.
Many marketers use Facebook to target people based on their interests, age, gender or job.
However, you have many more options to reach the right audience.
1. Reach people who visited your website
Through retargeting you can select a person who visited your entire website, or even a specific page – in case you are running a campaign just for a service or product presented in a single article of your website.
By doing this, you will target the audience that has been interested in that particular topic.
In order to define a website custom audience, you need to have the Facebook Pixel running on your website.
2. Reach your customer/database list
You can easily use your email list or Facebook user IDs to create a proper customer audience. By selecting this option, Facebook will match its users’ details with your contact list.
3. Custom audience based on app activity
This option allows you to select the user who has either interacted with your app or has done a particular action on your app, which enables you to target a very specific audience.
4. Reach “Lookalike” audience
By creating a Lookalike audience, you can create a broader audience similar to a source Custom Audience. This audience will be established by Facebook, searching common characteristics within an existing audience and crafting in this way a larger list of very similar users who have most likely never interacted with your business before!
Now that you have your audience customized, you can move towards setting your ads (if you haven’t done yet, don’t miss this step by step guide to Facebook Lead Ads).
Moreover…
Through Facebook you can optimize the user’s experience of your ads campaign
It is possible now thanks to the use of a Welcome Screen.
The Welcome Screen is a feature that you can use in order to explain what’s going to happen next to the people who clicked on the Ad.

The Welcome Screen allows advertisers to add a further qualifying step before the user submits the form. It ensures that users don’t sign up without realizing what they’re giving their details for.
