These 10 Tips will get you faster results with Facebook and Instagram ads. Go get started tday.

1. Run an Ad to Your Warm Audience First

Instead of jumping straight into cold audience ads, test your first ad on people who already know you—like your email list, website visitors, or social media followers. These people are more likely to engage, helping you see what works before spending money on strangers.

2. Use Facebook’s “Campaign Ideas Generator”

Most people don’t realize Facebook has a free Campaign Ideas Generator to help brainstorm ad ideas based on your industry and goals. You can use it to get creative copy and visuals! Find it here.

3. Start With Engagement or Video Views Ads, Not Sales

New advertisers often go straight for conversion ads, but that can be expensive. Instead, start with engagement or video view ads to warm up your audience before running sales ads. This lowers costs and improves results later.

4. Target Your Competitors’ Audience (Legally!)

You can’t directly target competitor pages, but you can target people who like related influencers, brands, or industry keywords. This is a great way to reach buyers already interested in your niche.

5. Create 3-5 Versions of the Same Ad

Most people make one ad and hope it works. Instead, create multiple versions with different headlines, images, and call-to-action buttons. Facebook will show the best-performing ad more often, helping you get better results with the same budget.

6. Test Super Specific Audiences (Not Just Broad Ones)

Facebook’s AI is smart, but sometimes narrow targeting works better. Try creating a micro audience (5,000–50,000 people) based on specific interests or behaviors. Example: Instead of just “business owners,” target “female business coaches who follow Amy Porterfield”.

7. Use the “Don’t Click This Ad” Trick

Reverse psychology works! Ads that challenge the viewer tend to get higher engagement. Try a playful ad copy like:
👉 “Warning: This Ad is NOT for You… Unless You Want More Clients!”

8. Retarget People Who Watched 50% of Your Video

Most new advertisers forget about retargeting. If someone watches half of your video ad, they’re interested! Set up an audience of these people and show them a follow-up offer to turn them into leads or customers.

9. Exclude People Who Already Took Action

Many beginners waste ad spend by showing ads to people who already signed up or bought. Always exclude past customers and leads from seeing the same ad—you’ll save money and prevent ad fatigue.

10. Set a Budget You Can Actually Learn From

If you’re only spending $1/day, your results will be too slow to analyze. A better approach? Start with $5-$10/day for a week, then review your data. You’ll quickly see what’s working without breaking the bank.
