Creating a Cascading Waterfall of Digital Ads for Your Funnel (for a full funnel approach with short video ads warming people up and creating a remarketing audience)

12ET / 9am PT

Adriana Dakin
Co-CEO of ImaginePod &
Strategy & Partnerships Specialist at the Community Foundation of Mendocino County

You learn the mindset, strategy, and action plan to connect with your audience with your heart and with authentic trust building over time. You’ll get:

  • A script template to follow in your video ads
  • A 4-part structure to turn chaos into order easily
  • A content flywheel to plan and track your success, and
  • Access to an over-the-shoulder 1:1 hands-on session for cold + warm stack audience set up in Meta in a “cascading waterfall” structure.

You’ll then be able to overcome Meta’s current problems targeting audiences due to changes in the data they have available. By creating your own warm audience, you can move a potential customer or donor from stranger –> to new friend –> to action taker. You’ll be warming them up step-by-step for conversion to action-taking. We’ll show you how to lead powerfully with your hook and niche audience call-out, bring them value and build trust, and move them from social media to conversations with you that can generate sales or donations.

This session will give you specific examples to create your own sequenced journey for a social impact marketing funnel. You’ll learn our 3 discoveries we’ve found from doing this work for social enterprises, foundations, and nonprofits, and see how you can cross-purpose your video ads organically in fundraising campaigns, YouTube, website landing pages, and TikTok. Our goal is to help you connect powerfully with your purpose and your audience, and help you bring in the financial resources that your cause and community urgently needs.

Objectives:

Create warm audiences that build trust and relationships, generate sales and donations through conversations, have a solid & easy to understand campaign structure to work within
