This tutorial shows you how to create a Facebook Ad. Facebook advertising is among the cheapest and most effective way to advertise your listings, brand yourself and much more. AND, you do not need to be a computer techie to do it. Trust me, Facebook wants everyone to do it, so they make it very user-friendly. In this tutorial, you will find out that in order to create Facebook Ads, you start by creating a normal Facebook post, and then "Boost" it. You will learn how to targer your audience by location (City, Zip Code, etc.), Age and many targeting options as well. I use a LISTING in the tutorial as an example. There is another tutorial in which I show you several more ad types you can try, like slideshows and more. This tutorial, however, is perfect if this is your first time createing a Facebook ad, or want to do an ad for a listing.
IMPORTANT: This tutorial assumes that you have already created a Facebook Page (business page). It also (optionally) assumes you have already acquired a Power Point Social Media Template, HOWEVER, if not, that's ok. If you don't have a Facebook Page or Power Point Social Media Template, see the other tutorials on those topics.

When you view a listing on ColdwellBanker.com, you will likely see the incorrect listing agent. When you view one listing, let's say with agent John Doe, next time you go look at ANY listing on ColdwellBanker.com, you are likely to see John Doe again as the listing agent, instead of the correct listing agent. This is because the website is assuming you were a potential customer that is already working with John Doe and the site is attempting to force you to only see John Doe from now on. Great for agents, pain in the neck for our staff.
The ColdwellBanker.com website pulls off this little trick by using something called "Cookies". So, what you have to do is turn Cookies off for the ColdwellBanker.com website in your browser. Once you do this on a PC (or Mac), you won't have to do it again, unless you switch to another PC (or Mac).
The first video explains how to do this for Chrome:

Once you have your mailing list, please delete columns that are not needed. HERE is a sample excel file that has the correct formatting. You will notice there is one column for FULL NAME (instead of separate columns). Also, Street, City, State and Zip must all be separate columns.
