Exactly. The notion goes like this: facebook ads can cost anywhere between 2$ and 5000$ a day. So there's really room for thinking and playing. But I would not want this to go nowhere just because there are too many options. I'd envision a first campaign that's short and targeted in a not too specific way (as in, we target specific categories but don't go too deep) and evaluate the returns on this. >From what I know and have observed on several blogs and websites, Facebook may not drive "purchases", but it drives real traffic. I have heard about GM pulling out from Facebook, but then tracking the customer's interest from a facebook page to the car loan signed at the specific GM's reseller seems far-fetched in any case. However, one click leading to a download of a "free" software is quite different imho.
