I have a good buddy, a small business owner. He owns a butcher shop in St. Louis, and we were talking about Facebook likes on as social proof for his business. He asked:
“TELL ME HOW LIKES CAN PUT BRACES ON MY KID OR PAY FOR MY GAS?”
He knew the answer, and through a successful branding and social media campaign, he created “street cred” and a social media following that is paying off. Think about it…he built a butcher shop, and the community loves everything about it. His business and brand recognition are off the charts and this neighborhood butcher shop is killing the social media game. Check it out here and throw him a LIKE.

Why should we run a Like campaign?
- Facebook like campaigns deliver social proof.
Once you’ve run a Like campaign, you can do connection targeting. You can aim your ads at friends of fans and make the most of the instant credibility. Your ads are no longer just a cold interruption; instead, they appear recommended by a friend, and the ads look popular. Viewers can see that other people, including people they know, have liked you, so they feel comfortable about liking you, too.
- As you build likes and create fans, those fans see your ads more.
Few people realize that Facebook shows your ads to your fans twice as often as they show them to non-fans. Currently, non-fans may see your ads in the newsfeed twice a day, while fans may see your ads up to four times a day.
- Building a receptive audience through Facebook like campaigns.
Targeting your fans with authentic conversion-focused campaigns will always yield the best ROI. Your fans will like the content occasionally and give the content more reach and reception.
Investing time and money in Like campaigns get higher click-through rates, opt-in rates, and a better ROI. Like campaigns are an incredibly inexpensive way to find a solid lead. It won’t take up most of your budget. Spending somewhere between five percent and 10 percent of your campaign bucket is typical. And once it’s up and running, you can set it, forget it and leave it to run so that your audience is constantly growing with fresh leads.
