How We Leveraged Facebook Events to Create an 1800% ROI for Family Entertainment Centers

Updated: Feb 22

In the fast-paced world of family entertainment centers (FECs), attracting customers and driving revenue can often feel like navigating a maze. However, when you find the right strategies, especially on highly engaged social media channels, specifically through platforms like Facebook, FECs now have powerful tools at their disposal to effectively promote their offerings and engage with their audience. One such tool that has proven to be immensely successful is Facebook Events.


At Xceptional, we specialize in digital marketing for family entertainment centers, and we've honed a strategy that leverages Facebook Events to not only increase attendance but also boost revenue for weekly specials and events. Our approach is simple yet highly effective, yielding impressive results for our clients.


Creating Compelling Events:


The first step in our strategy is crafting engaging and enticing events on Facebook. Whether it's a themed family night, a special promotion, or a holiday event, we ensure that the event details are clear, captivating, and tailored to the target audience of the FEC. From eye-catching graphics to compelling event descriptions, we make sure that every element resonates with potential attendees.





Targeted Event Response Ads:


Once the event is created, we employ Facebook Event Response Ads to drive traffic and interest. These ads are strategically targeted to reach individuals who are most likely to be interested in the event based on factors such as location, demographics, and interests. By utilizing Facebook's robust targeting capabilities, we maximize the reach and relevance of our ads, ensuring they resonate with the right audience.


Harnessing Social Proof:


One of the key advantages of Facebook Events is the social proof they generate. When someone marks themselves as "going" or "interested" in an event, it not only notifies their friends but also increases the visibility of the event in their social circle. This organic amplification effect is invaluable in creating buzz and excitement around the event, encouraging more people to attend.





Impressive ROI:


The results speak for themselves. On average, our clients achieve a cost of $0.73 per event response, demonstrating the cost-effectiveness of our approach. Take, for example, one of our clients who invested $74 in event response ads for a 90-minute event. This modest investment resulted in a staggering 118 event responses, translating to over $1400 in revenue. With an ROI exceeding 1,800%, it's clear that Facebook Events are a game-changer for FECs looking to drive attendance and revenue.





In today's digital age, effective marketing is essential for the success of family entertainment centers. By harnessing the power of Facebook Events, FECs can not only increase attendance but also maximize revenue for their weekly specials and events. At Xceptional, we're committed to helping FECs thrive in an increasingly competitive landscape, and our proven strategy for leveraging Facebook Events is just one of the many ways we deliver results for our clients.
