# Insurance Facebook Ads Guide

Facebook remains the most cost-effective platform for insurance lead generation at scale. With proper targeting, creative, and funnel design, agents consistently generate leads at $8–25 each — far cheaper than purchased leads at $25–60.

## Targeting Framework

**Medicare targeting**: Age 63–65, interests in Medicare/retirement/AARP, exclude current Medicare recipients, geo-target your service area.

**Life insurance targeting**: Ages 25–55, recently married/new parent life events, homeowner status, household income $50K+.

**ACA targeting**: Ages 26–64, self-employed/freelancer interests, uninsured indicators, open enrollment timing.

**Final expense targeting**: Ages 50–80, interests in funeral planning/estate planning, zip codes with lower median income.

## Ad Creative Best Practices

**Headlines that work**: Question-based ("Are You Paying Too Much for Medicare?"), benefit-driven ("Save $200/Month on Health Insurance"), urgency ("Open Enrollment Ends December 15").

**Images**: Professional headshot with text overlay outperforms stock photos. Real photos > illustrations. Bright, clean backgrounds.

**Video ads**: 30–60 second educational clips get 3x the engagement of static images. Answer one common question per video.

**Ad copy formula**: Problem → Agitate → Solution → CTA. "Confused about Medicare options? (Problem) With 40+ plans available, choosing wrong could cost you thousands. (Agitate) I help people in [City] find the perfect plan in one appointment. (Solution) Click below to schedule your free consultation. (CTA)"

## Landing Page & Funnel

**Landing page elements**: Headline matching the ad, 3 trust signals (reviews, credentials, carrier logos), simple form (name, phone, email, zip), mobile-optimized.

**Follow-up funnel**: Instant text confirmation → 5-minute phone call attempt → email with educational content → Day 2 follow-up → Day 5 final attempt → nurture sequence.
