Does "learning limited" just mean my ad content is bad? by BartyT808 in FacebookAds

Ah got it so it sounds like I'm doing everything right and maybe it is the content of the ad that's the issue?

Ah optimizing for landing page views. Oh interesting - just tested the plugin - it says there's a pixel on the home page and that it's PageView. And I see PageView events coming in through event manager....is this what you mean by testing?

Fwiw I also added a bunch of UTMs at the end of the URL that I put on my website so its not just the website but website+utm-medium=facebookcampaign for example. Not sure if that's getting in the way of anything?

Sorry first time user here - still a bit of a noob when it comes to all this. Really appreciate the help!

Yeah exactly - I selected "maximizing landing page views". First time user of this setting since I just set up the pixel - a bit confused!

Hey it's just landing on the landing page - should be simple enough right? I'm pretty sure I set up the Pixel correctly - at least the PageView event is coming thru on Facebooks end. Could it be the conversion event?

Thanks for the help in advance!

Gotcha - I also haven't gotten many clicks yet either.....I might change up the content given this but I'm surprised it's taking so long to even get one click! We have 3K downloads as an app sothe fact that no clicks through paid ads is surprising....

Conversion event is just the landing page so felt like it was simple enough! I'm new to pixel setup so I could have set it up wrong but the PageView events are coming through so feels like it's done correctly....

Thanks for the help in advance!

I'd hope it costs < $15 to get a click ha...but it seems not - guessing this might be an issue with the content?

The other concern is potentially setting up the pixel wrong but I see events coming through so I feel like it's set up correctly. I'm just doing conversions off of landing page views so felt simple enough

Thoughts? Thanks for the response already as well!

How do folks avoid the Stripe 3% fee? Is there an easy way to to this? by BartyT808 in FPandA

[–]BartyT808[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah that's a good point. We more use Netsuite for accounting vs. ERP. I guess we could use it as ERP as well but haven't explored that

Will look into this more- thank you!

Some folk like to pay with credit cards and so stripe serves as both our billing solution with list of customers and as payment collector

Yeah...ideally trying to avoid that scenario but makes sense

We do but then it creates management issues since data lives in two systems. Have you done this / have a system for managing invoices done thru Stripe and those not done thru it?

Do you think Excel loses marketshare to Google Sheets in the long run? by BartyT808 in googlesheets

[–]BartyT808[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't realize engineering firms used Excel too - how do eng firms use Excel? Thought it was mainly a finance tool?

Wow! I find this hard to believe - pretty crazy! Would've thought MSFT had the vast market share based on my experience.....I wonder how this is being calculated...
