2. Facebook users are not interested in buying and traffic doesn’t convert to sales.
Fact: Facebook gives advertisers pinpoint demographics, allowing advertiser to target much more precisely than google adwords, or other advertising platforms.
3. Social Proof is pure hype.
Fact: There used to be a time when expert copywriters would spend hours crafting the perfect message or brand for their target audience.
