Adventures in DIY film event advertising: Note 1 - The Facebook Ad

So, I am working on getting the word out about the 2/17 World Premiere of Indie Film Blogger Road Trip at Anthology. Part of that is checking out, & trying out, various affordable advertising opportunities out there. One of the first things I did re: advertising was running a Facebook ad for the event. I ran an ad for about 3 days recently, targeting people who live in NYC, and Facebook said my ad received over 130,000 impressions. Now don't ask me about what that means exactly - because I have not read all the FAQs re: Facebook ads. The thing only cost about $17 (you can pick how much you want to spend a day on a Facebook ad campaign - I picked $6 a day & suspended the campaign before the full 3rd day was over). So, come 2/17, we'll see if the Facebook ad had any positive effects.

Next ad thing I'm trying out is a couple of blog ads through the company Blog Ads.

It's micro-budget advertising for a micro-budget film baby, we'll see how it all goes.
