I'm running an ad for a client and I'm honestly stuck!
I NEVER run ads for anything over $50 and this is an event with tickets starting at $97.
We have had 0 sign ups. It's been running for almost a month.
I've expanded the audience, adjusted the copy, switched from graphics to video, shortened the video, still NOTHING!
We're sending traffic to a landing page which IMO looks professional but I didn't build it - I just do the ads.
Does anyone have insight for running ads to higher cost events with success?!

Here’s how to improve ads for high-ticket events:

1) Targeting: Use lookalike audiences, interest-based targeting, and retargeting for those who clicked but didn’t sign up.

2) Landing Page Optimization: Ensure clear CTAs, add social proof, and create urgency (e.g., countdown timers, limited-time offers).

3) Offer Incentives: Provide a discount or payment plan, or offer a freebie to lower the barrier to entry.

4
) Ad Copy & Creative: Focus on value, include testimonials, and address potential objections.

5) Funnel Approach: Consider a two-step funnel: Lead gen (freebie) first, then offer the event ticket.

6) Analytics: Check CTR and test different variations (copy, visuals) to find what works best.
