This session will show you how to set up a Meta ad. You’ll think about ads, ad sets, objectives, creative sizes/types, variable copy, approval processes (and what can go wrong) and reporting. Meta ads are complicated, but we’ll keep this as simple as possible.
You will start to understand how Meta ads work, and then begin the process of building your own advert.
