This includes people in your CRM, website visitors, app and email subscribers, and retail store patrons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What&#8217;s more, you can fine-tune your audience by adding or excluding individuals based on specific actions they&#8217;ve taken. For example, you can exclude recent app subscribers to ensure your ad budget isn&#8217;t wasted on the wrong audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But that\u2019s not all \u2013 with custom audiences, you can even craft a <a href=\"https:\/\/leadsbridge.com\/blog\/how-to-use-facebook-lookalike-audiences\/\">lookalike audience<\/a> to reel in new customers who resemble your most valuable ones.

How? By reconnecting with those who\u2019ve previously shown interest in your business but have yet to make a purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look at the success story of Graham Media Group, which teamed up with a mattress manufacturer in order to boost its lead generation and conversion rates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First question: What was their strategy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They created location-based audiences targeting both their own locations and their competitors\u2019 in the desired market.

If someone decides to opt-out, this function removes them from the custom audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This way, LeadsBridge makes it easy to respect users\u2019 preferences and avoid targeting those you don\u2019t want to target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have a<a href=\"https:\/\/leadsbridge.com\/integrations\/facebook-custom-audiences\/\"> whole host of integrations<\/a> available for Facebook custom audiences.

This new solution counts the maximum size of your reached audience, in contrast to the previous model, which counted an audience each time a contact was added or removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This audience targeting add-on enables you to ascertain your required audience size, charged at a flat fee. The value of this system is that it gives you greater flexibility in the running of your campaigns, free from interruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To initiate this audience counter on your current custom audience plan, you can contact our sales team by <a href=\"https:\/\/lp.leadsbridge.com\/l\/927143\/2022-08-18\/pw6y8\/?utm_source=website_form&amp;utm_medium=form&amp;utm_campaign=audience_targeting&amp;_gl=1*x9n2d6*_ga*NjM3NTIzMDc2LjE2NDkxNjQwMTI.*_ga_JE17N6MF9D*MTY2OTk5ODU4OS41OC4xLjE2Njk5OTg3NzkuNTIuMC4w\">booking a call<\/a> today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"30-how-to-target-an-email-list-on-facebook\">How to target an email list on Facebook<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Leveraging your existing email list to create custom Facebook ad audiences allows you to precisely target leads within your database who are the most likely to convert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Facebook custom audiences, you can input your collected lead email addresses from subscription forms and sign-ups directly into the platform. Facebook will match these addresses with its user base, creating a custom list for targeted ad campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a number of strategies that you can use to effectively create a Facebook audience from email lists. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Abandoned cart customers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Cart abandonment doesn&#8217;t always signal lost intent. Users might need a nudge to finish. Try a Facebook ad campaign aimed at this audience with incentives or discounts to seal the deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Website visitors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>A custom audience ad campaign targeting past website visitors can boost conversions by staying top of mind and nurturing the existing relationship. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benoaswim.com\/\">Benoa Swim<\/a> applied this strategy to remind customers about previously browsed swimsuits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"31-custom-audiences-common-questions\">Custom audiences: Common questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some common questions about custom audiences:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"32-1-what-is-facebooks-custom-audiences%E2%80%99-privacy\">1.&nbsp; What is Facebook&#8217;s custom audiences\u2019 privacy?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to use Facebook custom audiences, you must follow the applicable terms.

How do you change your audience on Facebook?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can take the following steps to modify your Facebook audience:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You can edit an ad set by going to your Meta Ads Manager and selecting the ad set you want to edit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next, click on the \u201cEdit\u201d button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To find the \u201cAudience\u201d section, scroll down.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can now edit the targeting options for your audience, including age, gender, location, interests, behaviors, and more.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To update your ad set with the new audience after making your changes, click the \u201cSave\u201d button.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that altering your audience may have an impact on the effectiveness and reach of your advertisement.

What is a Core Audience in Ads Manager?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Core audiences are built-in targeting options that allow advertisers to reach specific groups of people based on key attributes. When integrated into all of Meta&#8217;s ad-buying tools, it enables advertisers to refine their audience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So to answer your question about what a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/business\/news\/Core-Audiences\">Core Audience<\/a> is in Ads Manager, here\u2019s a quick rundown of how it targets users based on four criteria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Precise location targeting<\/strong> by country, city, state, ZIP code, and exclude specific areas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Demographic reach<\/strong> to target people based on relationship status, life events, workplace, job title, and education.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Streamlined interest-based targeting<\/strong> for simplicity and precision.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Behavior targeting<\/strong>, including Partner Categories, for targeting based on purchases and device usage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"37-6-how-to-remove-a-custom-audience-in-facebook\">6. How to remove a custom audience in Facebook?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Deleting a custom audience results in it being immediately removed from your account and any ad account you&#8217;ve shared it with. Active ad sets created by either the audience owner or the shared audience recipient, including the deleted audience, will be paused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And while you can turn on a paused ad set, remember to review any changes first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To delete your custom audience:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 1: Find <strong>Audiences<\/strong> in Ads Manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 2: Tick the box next to the audience you&#8217;d like to delete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 3: Select <strong>Delete<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And voila!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"38-how-to-delete-a-shared-custom-audience\">How to delete a shared custom audience<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s review deleting a shared custom audience, whether you have shared it or it was shared with you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If you delete a custom audience that you&#8217;ve shared with another ad account, it will also be removed from the recipient&#8217;s account. They might get notified if they have active ad sets using that audience, since those ad sets will be paused.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you delete a custom audience that was shared with you by another ad account, it won\u2019t affect the original owner\u2019s account. You can follow the steps above to delete the audience.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"39-7-can-you-combine-custom-audiences-on-facebook\">7. Can you combine custom audiences on Facebook?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you can absolutely combine custom audiences when setting up your Facebook (Meta) ads. The process is actually pretty straightforward. Here\u2019s how to do it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start by creating a new ad set in Ads Manager.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the Audience section, go to the Advantage+ audience area and click on Audience suggestion (this part\u2019s optional, but it can help).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Under Custom Audiences, select all the audiences you want to include. You can pick multiple.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s say you\u2019ve got a list of past customers and another of recent website visitors. If so, you can target both at once. Meta will merge them so your ads reach anyone in either group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When setting this up, just make sure each audience member shows \u201cReady\u201d before using it, or it won\u2019t work properly in your ad set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also continue to optimize by using exclusion targeting. This is great if you are trying to reach new leads, so they don&#8217;t overlap with your current customers. To exclude certain audiences:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Scroll to Audience controls.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click Show more options, and add any custom audiences you want to leave out under Exclude these custom audiences.<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Set up the rest of your ad as usual, including budget, placements, creative, etc.<br><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Once everything looks good, publish the ad set. Your campaign will go live after Meta reviews it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"40-8-how-to-share-a-custom-audience-on-facebook\">8. How to share a custom audience on Facebook<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shared audiences let others access the audiences you&#8217;ve created for your ads. You can share custom audience lists between ad accounts if both accounts are tied to a business portfolio and have an audience-sharing connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you begin, you must meet these requirements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Both parties must have a business portfolio.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A person with full control of the business portfolio must start the sharing process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accept Facebook&#8217;s terms of service if sharing for the first time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, the actual steps to share an audience:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 1: Go to <strong>Audiences<\/strong> in Ads Manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 2: Tick the boxes next to the audiences you want to share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 3: Click the <strong>Share<\/strong> button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 4: Enter the ad account numbers you want to share the audiences with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 5: Click the <strong>Share<\/strong> button again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that for this transaction to be completed, the recipient&#8217;s business portfolio needs to accept the partnership request.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once accepted, you can share additional audiences with those ad accounts. Also, remember that shared audiences can\u2019t be used to create lookalike audiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"41-9-how-to-accept-custom-audience-terms-on-facebook\">9.

To do this, disconnect and then reconnect your Facebook account within the platform to update your access and apply the changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"45-10-how-to-exclude-a-custom-audience-in-facebook-ads-manager\">10. How to exclude a custom audience in Facebook Ads Manager<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can add multiple exclusions and still target the people you want. If you use lookalikes, exclude the source list too to prevent overlap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to exclude a custom audience on Facebook in a simple three-step approach:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open Meta Ads Manager and edit your Ad Set.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In Audience, click Exclude and select Custom audiences.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then pick the list you don\u2019t want to see your ads (e.g., past purchasers, employees, recent site visitors).&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember to apply exclusions at the Ad Set so all ads inherit them. Also, make sure you refresh customer lists regularly to keep exclusions accurate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"46-11-can-i-create-a-custom-audience-using-facebook-user-ids\">11. Can I create a custom audience using Facebook user IDs?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you can create a custom audience using Facebook user IDs, as well as emails, phone numbers, app user IDs and other identifiers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But you must only use IDs for people you already have a real relationship with (for example, customers or users of your app), and you must follow <a href=\"https:\/\/developers.facebook.com\/terms\/dfc_platform_terms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Meta\u2019s Platform Terms<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/developers.facebook.com\/devpolicy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Developer Policies<\/a>, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/legal\/terms\/customaudience\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Custom Audience Terms of Service.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You also have to respect the newer rules about sensitive data.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting September 2, 2025, Meta will block custom audiences (and lookalike audiences) that suggest sensitive information, such as health conditions (like \u201cdiabetes\u201d or \u201carthritis\u201d) or financial status (like \u201chigh income\u201d or \u201ccredit score\u201d).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your audience is flagged, it may get an error code (like 471), your ad set may show \u201cwith issues\u201d, and that audience cannot be used to run ads.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To fix this, review the audience, remove any data or labels that hint at health or financial information, or create a new audience that follows the rules.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If that has happened to you and you think Meta made a mistake, you can request a review inside Ads Manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"47-facebook-custom-audience-best-practices\">Facebook custom audience best practices<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Each segment is addressed with a campaign that triggers the right buying impulses at the right time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, many marketing departments still operate by uploading CSV files on Facebook to create custom audiences. Timing and accuracy are crucial to taking advantage of the available data and running effective retargeting campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The information must flow freely from the CRM database to the Meta Business Manager. That can be a problem, especially for large companies with strong hierarchical environments and several managers whose responsibilities often overlap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are five ways large companies can benefit from automating custom audiences despite their structural challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know exactly all the different types of custom audiences available, let\u2019s explore some of the best practices to help you kickstart your <a href=\"https:\/\/leadsbridge.com\/blog\/retargeting-ads-examples\/\">retargeting campaigns<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"48-1-create-your-campaigns-faster-by-avoiding-manual-work\">1. Create your campaigns faster by avoiding manual work<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Close collaboration among several departments is required to develop a robust retargeting strategy. However, coordinating the work among departments already takes a lot of effort. This leaves little room for repetitive, manual work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since effective retargeting campaigns depend entirely upon constantly updated CSV files, they need to be synced on the Meta Business Manager quite often. The best way to avoid manual upload is through <a href=\"https:\/\/leadsbridge.com\/blog\/marketing-automation-strategy\/\">marketing automation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By bridging the CRM with the Meta Business account, the information is updated automatically in the custom audience on Facebook once a new subscriber enters a particular CRM segmentation or a specific stage in the buying cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"lb-dynamic-integration-widget lb-dynamic-integration-widget-block_654c9e021cfc5\">\n        <a class=\"ui-wrapper d-flex flex-column flex-md-row align-items-center no-gutters\" href=\"https:\/\/app.leadsbridge.com\/bc\/lb\/google-sheets\/facebook-custom-audiences\/\" target=\"_self\">\n            <div class=\"logos d-flex flex-nowrap align-items-center col-auto mb-3 mb-md-0\">\n            <img data-src=\"http:\/\/leadsbridge.com\/wp-content\/themes\/leadsbridge\/img\/integration-xs-logos\/logo63.png\" alt=\"Google Sheets logo\" class=\"img-fluid lazyload\"\/>            <span class=\"plus\">+<\/span><img data-src=\"http:\/\/leadsbridge.com\/wp-content\/themes\/leadsbridge\/img\/integration-xs-logos\/logo371.png\" alt=\"Facebook Custom Audiences logo\" class=\"img-fluid lazyload ml-1\"\/>        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"description flex-grow-1 col ml-md-3 mb-3 mb-md-0 text-center text-md-left\">\n            Integrate Google Sheets &amp; Facebook Custom Audiences instantly\n        <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"cta ml-md-3\">\n                <button type=\"button\" class=\"btn btn-quaternary text-uppercase d-flex\"><span>try now<\/span><\/button>\n            <\/div>\n                <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n\n<div class=\"lb-dynamic-integration-widget lb-dynamic-integration-widget-block_654c9e161cfc6\">\n        <a class=\"ui-wrapper d-flex flex-column flex-md-row align-items-center no-gutters\" href=\"https:\/\/app.leadsbridge.com\/bc\/lb\/act-on\/facebook-custom-audiences\/\" target=\"_self\">\n            <div class=\"logos d-flex flex-nowrap align-items-center col-auto mb-3 mb-md-0\">\n            <img data-src=\"http:\/\/leadsbridge.com\/wp-content\/themes\/leadsbridge\/img\/integration-xs-logos\/logo119.png\" alt=\"Act-On logo\" class=\"img-fluid lazyload\"\/>            <span class=\"plus\">+<\/span><img data-src=\"http:\/\/leadsbridge.com\/wp-content\/themes\/leadsbridge\/img\/integration-xs-logos\/logo371.png\" alt=\"Facebook Custom Audiences logo\" class=\"img-fluid lazyload ml-1\"\/>        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"description flex-grow-1 col ml-md-3 mb-3 mb-md-0 text-center text-md-left\">\n            Move data between Act-On &amp; Facebook Custom Audiences automatically\n        <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"cta ml-md-3\">\n                <button type=\"button\" class=\"btn btn-quaternary text-uppercase d-flex\"><span>try now<\/span><\/button>\n            <\/div>\n                <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"49-2-create-instant-retargeting-campaigns-with-updated-custom-audiences\">2. Create instant retargeting campaigns with updated custom audiences<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Constant data updates are crucial to boost sales through a dynamic retargeting strategy. This depends on the brand and what they offer. Giants like Adidas and Nike revise their lead, customer, and segment databases rapidly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Running weekly or bi-weekly updates is a poor practice and imperils sales, budget, and customer satisfaction. For example, some leads may become customers, yet your outdated database keeps sending them ads as if they&#8217;re still leads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Manual updates are also impractical, causing friction between CRM Managers and Advertising Planners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using automation, you can update custom audiences every 6 hours with the latest data. This ensures a high-quality shopping experience and increased profit margins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"50-3-reduce-the-possibility-of-data-point-mismatch\">3. Reduce the possibility of data point mismatch<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One often overlooked aspect of retargeting campaigns is the precise formatting and uploading of customer data required by Meta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Manually creating a CSV file involves data gathering, proper column sorting, file extraction, and Facebook upload. However, some CRMs, like HubSpot, offer a native option for ready-to-upload CSV files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consistency in file format is crucial during sorting, because it leaves minimal room for error. To reduce mismatching, it&#8217;s best to access data directly from CRM value fields using an API script.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>API scripts enhance matching precision, ensuring custom audiences remain clean for effective retargeting campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"51-4-keep-your-ad-relevance-diagnostics-score-high\">4. Keep your Ad Relevance Diagnostics score high<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Meta upgraded the single Relevance Score years ago and replaced it with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/business\/help\/436113280262012\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ad Relevance Diagnostics<\/a>. It includes three separate rankings: Quality ranking, Engagement rate ranking, and Conversion rate ranking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When setting up retargeting campaigns for website visitors, you can instruct Facebook to exclude email contacts of those who&#8217;ve already made a purchase and are in the CRM. You can achieve this by placing a code snippet (pixel) on the transaction confirmation page.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"280\" src=\"https:\/\/leadsbridge.kinsta.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Screenshot-2019-02-19-at-20.17.57.png\" alt=\"wordpress screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-39281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/leadsbridge.kinsta.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Screenshot-2019-02-19-at-20.17.57.png 450w, https:\/\/leadsbridge.kinsta.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Screenshot-2019-02-19-at-20.17.57-300x187.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>This feature allows you to show ads to people who visited the website but are not registered in the CRM. Additionally, it prevents flooding customers who have already converted with further ads by maintaining high-ranking Ad Relevance Diagnostics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This score is an indicator of ad performance. Usually, a higher score is associated with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/business\/news\/relevance-score\">lower overall costs and higher reach per dollar spent<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, having strong cores allows advertisers to enjoy lower costs and more effective ad distribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"52-5-keep-your-lookalike-audiences-relevant\">5.

They are users that share similar traits and interests to customers or leads who have already had some interaction with a business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By replacing the information about the usual identifiers such as name, email, and phone number, with the ideal client data in terms of spending over time, Facebook can reach a more qualitative audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"53-6-creating-precise-audience-segmentation\">6.
