They Laughed When I Told Them I’d Make A Million From Facebook Ads, Until I Did.

How I “Forced” Facebook To Feed Me 25,626 Customers

(For Subscribers & Customers Of Digital Kickstart Only)

From not knowing ANYTHING about Facebook Ads to being listed on Entrepreneur.com as “the Facebook expert” while getting 25,626 customers from Facebook Ads.

What happened?

I discovered something most Facebook advertisers don’t know about. Little did I know it would change the way I run my Facebook™ Ads forever.

My name is Wilco de Kreij, founder & CEO of Connectio. Some call me a “Facebook Ads wizard” after seeing the results of my campaigns. Over the last few years, I’ve helped 20,000+ clients with their marketing. You may know some of my clients, such as Mike Filsaime, Nicholas Kusmich and many others.

It wasn’t always like this, though.

Before Making Millions On Facebook™ Ads… I Struggled For Years

A few years ago, I started looking at new ways to get customers into my business.

As I discovered, the best way to produce consistent sales and maximum profit is using paid advertising — and Facebook is the best ad platform there is.

After all…

• It’s where your customers are (with over 2 billion users your audience is already there)
• Their targeting is amazing (no matter who your customer is, you’ll be able to reach them)
• It’s extremely scalable (once your offer works, you spend more to make more).

Like everyone else, I bought tons of courses. Looked at all the ads my competitors were running. Learned from all the well-respected (but self-proclaimed) “gurus” just trying to get my Facebook™ ads off the ground.

Despite that… I saw no results. Talk about frustrating.

Here are my stats for 2016:

After spending €1,400, I only made back €445.

That’s a €956 LOSS  (not even counting product costs).

I kept going, though. I had to.

How was everyone else making their ads profitable, and why couldn’t I get there myself?

Tried out everything and then some… but nothing was working.

I was stuck

That’s when it hit me.

Most Advertisers Are Guessing What Works (And So Was I)

Many advertisers seem to forget the Facebook Ads platform is an auction. A bidding game with massive competition.

The ONLY way to win this game and run profitable campaigns, is to do things better than your competitors.

My problem was… How?! After all, I’m just some Dutch guy with a broken accent.

Most of the Facebook Ads courses I’ve seen did an “okay job” explaining the basics, but none of them revealed their best tricks & strategies on what actually works. Sure – learning the basic concepts was useful, but I quickly discovered it wasn’t going to make my ads profitable.

Besides these basic strategies, some advertisers try to be “smart” by copying what other advertisers do. By doing that, they’re assuming their competitors know what the perfect Facebook Ad setup looks like.

They couldn’t be more wrong.

They’re guessing the ad they’re copying is perfect. What they’re actually doing is copying mistake after mistake.

I did this, too.

I hate to break it to you, but running “average” Facebook Ad campaigns isn’t going to cut it anymore. Those days are over.

That’s When I Discovered How To “Beat The Game”

Once I realised “average” wasn’t going to cut it, I kinda freaked out. How am I – just an ordinary guy from the Dutch farmlands – going to win against other advertisers with more experience?

That’s when I stopped looking at what everyone else was doing.

Instead, I started thinking outside the box.

(That’s actually a frame from one of my Facebook Ads )

I looked at all factors of a Facebook ad campaign (targeting, copy, video, placements, bidding, etc etc etc) and wondered how to do these things better than ANYONE else.

In short, here’s what I did:

• I let go of EVERYTHING I learned up to that point.
• Re-imagined ALL the best practices of what a Facebook campaign should look like
• Split-tested every idea & strategy to discover what REALLY works.

You’d laugh if you’d see the kind of things I’ve split-tested

They weren’t all my own ideas, though.

In 2017 alone, I invested over $35,000 in various high-level masterminds to discover strategies that you normally wouldn’t discover online.

Private mastermind with Russell Brunson, founder of ClickFunnels)

This proved to be well worth the investment.

Obviously, I didn’t take new ideas for granted. Every time I got an idea, I A/B split tested it extensively. After all, testing is the only way to discover what REALLY works.

Every time a split-test proved something is effective, I saved it to Evernote.

That’s when I started noticing similar patterns across campaigns and industries.

Turns out, that the things I did to optimize one campaign, improved conversions in all other campaigns as well.

These optimization discoveries are universal.

This changed the game for me.

There Isn’t Just One “Million-Dollar Secret” (Spoiler: There Are Many)

As I discovered more best-practices for various part of my campaigns (targeting, copy, videos, placements, etc), creating profitable campaigns became easy.

Without planning for it, I had created a blueprint for successful campaigns.

(Again, a snippet from one of my video ads )

Creating a new campaign wasn’t guesswork anymore.

Instead, I implemented all the proven-best practices I already split-tested.

All the way from precise targeting tricks, winning ad copy formulas, effective scaling strategies, high-ROI retargeting templates, etc etc etc (the list goes on).

The “secret” (not so secret anymore ) is to implement these proven best practices to make sure your campaings are performing better than your competitors’ – right from the start.

Once I realised this… things went crazy.

Here are the results of one of my campaigns:

As you can see, I spent $155k with a nice $462k return.

That’s a 261% ROI. Or, put differently…

Every time I put $1 in… I make $2.61!

Here’s another campaign:

As you can see, this one resulted close to €1.2M in revenue.

(That’s roughly $1.4M in USD).

This campaign even got me a 2-comma club award:

The reason this works so well, is that I now have a checklist of proven things for every Facebook Ads campaign.

Before my campaign has even started… I already know I have a head start over those who don’t implement these things.

It’s like having the fastest car on the race track – it’s hard to lose.

By now, you must be wondering how to increase your ROI as well?

Let me share a basic example with you.

Example: How To Double The ROI Of Your Facebook Video Ads

As you probably know, Facebook video ads are extremely effective. They’re responsible for a good chunk of my results.

A while back, I checked out the statistics of one of my campaigns (see below) and noticed that only 20.3% of viewers watched it on a desktop device. The vast majority (76%) watched the video on a mobile device.

After looking at these stats, I wondered how to optimise my video ads for mobile users. I realised that horizontal videos aren’t taking up much space on their screen… while square videos are.

So… I put it to the test.

Instead of using horizontal videos that only take up 31% space of the screen, I turned my videos into “meme-style” square video ads taking up 70% space of the screen.

What do you think grabs more attention? Exactly.

Here are the results:

As you can see, the square video got a MUCH higher CTR (click-through-rate).

Not just that…

The square ad proved to be more than twice as profitable. That’s a BIG difference for ± 30 minutes of work using the exact same video.

This right here… is just one of MANY improvements I discovered.

What Would A 300% ROI Mean For You?

Perhaps you want to sell your own product or service through Facebook?

Or someone else’s product as an affiliate?

Whatever it is… Imagine you’re running a Facebook Ads campaign for it and every time you spend $1, you earn $3.

The first time I saw that happen, it gave me goosebumps.

• Spend $100/month, you earn $300/month.
• Spend $1,000/month, you earn $3,000/month
• Spend $5,000/month, you earn $30,000/month
• Spend $25,000/month, you earn $75,000/month
• Spend $50,000/month, you earn $150,000/month

This is happening, day in – day out.

I’ve seen it happen inside my Facebook Ads campaign thanks to the blueprint I created over time. With these best practices, the odds were in my favor.

Once I saw how well this works, I had two options.

1. Either keep this information to myself and exploit it as much as possible.
2. Share my insights with others.

That’s when I decided to roll up my sleeves, get down to work and put it all together into a clear step-by-step format.

How Much Does It Cost?

I considered hosting a mastermind.

By sharing this with only a small group of people, I could easily charge $10,000 since this is a plug-and-play system.

$10,000 would be a bargain for the amount of traffic, leads and sales my method produces.

I’m not a fan of phone sales to sell those spots, though.

Instead, I considered the normal “course launch” price of $2,000 – $5,000 like everyone else charges.

I’d do pretty well, but it’d be out of reach for people who need this the most.

So, I decided to only charge $497 for subscribers and customers of Digital Kickstart.

If I had a course like this when I started, it would have saved me an enormous amount of wasted effort.

So, let me ask you…

How much is your time worth?

For the very reasonable cost of this course, I can help put you on the “fast track” to success.

Information about business:

Business is the activity of making one’s living or making money by producing or buying and selling products (such as goods and services).
[need quotation to verify] Simply put, it is “any activity or enterprise entered into for profit.
It does not mean it is a company, a corporation, partnership, or have any such formal organization, but it can range from a street peddler to General Motors.”

Having a business name does not separate the business entity from the owner, which means that the owner of the business is responsible and liable for debts incurred by the business.
If the business acquires debts, the creditors can go after the owner’s personal possessions.
A business structure does not allow for corporate tax rates. The proprietor is personally taxed on all income from the business.
