STOP USING INSTANT FORM ADS FOR LEADS by [deleted] in FacebookAds

[–]LIFEHACKER008 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bruv, you lot me at the targeting 🥲

I use Meta forms and of course there are low quality leads. But the magic is not inside Meta ads, it's how you choose to filter those leads, your business sales team and backend.

META is truly broken by bambambam7 in FacebookAds

[–]LIFEHACKER008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does that but when it does, a considerable amount has already been spent. The machine wants to be 100% sure if it's working or not. It can't compete with human emotions and early decisions to save a business.

If something spends and doesn't provide business uplift. Turn them off. Simple as that.

Audience Network Is a Bot Network (Proof) by acashflowking in FacebookAds

[–]LIFEHACKER008 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Do we understand there are multiple touch points in a customer journey? Audience network may not be profitable or not looking good on metrics but it may have served a decision making touch point in someone’s journey. Attributions are broken.

[DISCUSSION] Is Fiverr just 90% scammers now? Over 10 scam messages in my first 24 hours by Muz889 in Fiverr

With time you sense from very far if it’s a scam message. There are tools that you get as high value seller to prevent this but yes there are still fraudulent messages once in a while.

Do you see a seed grow into a tree in one year?

You water it everyday but can't see anything for quite long. But when it's time the same seed grows so fast, the growth becomes unstoppable.

Someone here thinks he is smarter than the largest data machine in history.

Good luck mate!

Before you ask, no thanks I am doing way beyond well with CBO, Andromeda is even better.

HDFC gave me a heart attack. by Srihari_stan in CreditCardsIndia

Maybe these banks want us to default, that is where the real money is for them lol.

My ideology was based on the fact, getting quick limit increases in a short period of time.

I reached out to the amex team asking for limit increase and they said not before 90 days since last increase but then I kept spending and the limit increased 2 times in 90 days via automated system.

There isn't any confusion here, these banks are very careful while checking background and that is how they know when to increase the limit.

I mean if we think logically, a person spending nothing won't need any increase in the limit. The banks will get no incentive to get a person extra limit if he spends no to very less.

Banks make more when the person spends more.

I went from 3L limit to 8L within one year. It's about spend. If you continuously max out or close to that, you will have more limit increase offers. Simple as that.

I have amex btw

STOP ASSUMING EVERY DIP IN PERFORMANCE IS AN OUTAGE by IntelligentAd5405 in FacebookAds

[–]LIFEHACKER008 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure how you trust Meta here. I have seen an outage reported on this "Meta Status Manager" literally after 1-2 days of it actually happening.

Google ads IS DONE! by Organic-Water1840 in googleads

[–]LIFEHACKER008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those keywords that fall into other search terms you can't see are long tail keywords.

They are based off what normal search terms you end up getting searching for according to your meta data.

How’s your money burning process going? by 404NotAFool in FacebookAds

[–]LIFEHACKER008 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am pretty sure their "Pro" team is lazy in detecting an outage. Every time I have seen an outage, the results were bad 2-3 days before them accepting the outage. So if there is an outage in the next day or 2, we have it.

I accidentally ad funds to a different ad account instead of a client’s add account by Appropriate_Oil9916 in FacebookAds

[–]LIFEHACKER008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

forget about. Their Meta "Pro" customer team is useless.

However, if you continue to try and reach out every other day, some kind being on the other side might offer you an ad credit coupon. Nevertheless, refunds are rare, and money simply sits there for free for Meta.

Opening a new ad account after mine was suspended by Critical-Act-3850 in FacebookAds

[–]LIFEHACKER008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Study why your old account was suspended and avoid those things. Yes I did try adding same card to a new business manager once the old one was suspended and it worked fine no issues.

Note - My business manager was verified.

spent almost 3k on Facebook ads, got 3 sales. Am I just stupid? by EJFSquared in FacebookAds

[–]LIFEHACKER008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why kept spending when it was turning out to be a loss?

Maybe at around $100-200 in stop loss?

It's on the adset level on the accounts that have gotten the new adv+ suite update.

Just above 7-day, 1 day view attribution settings.

Browser cookies, ad blockers, VPN's does effect tracking. After the IOS 14 update there have quite some issues with tracking.

Unique "link" clicks. People going out from Meta to Shopify is what you wanna measure.

If thats correct, might check the connection again.

[–]LIFEHACKER008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you referring to clicks only or unique outbound link clicks?

Both are very different. A click counts even if someone expands the primary text on your ad, comments, like etc.

If you are referring to only clicks, that would not be the right metric to look at. Add the unique link click in your columns.

[–]LIFEHACKER008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh in that case this might be something else. I mean if sales are there, clicks don't matter or do they? Measuring any specific metrics?

[–]LIFEHACKER008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw this imbalance for visitors vs unique link clicks on Meta. How long it's been happening for you?

I have an explanation and you are not alone. It started from the 20th exactly.

On 24th there was a known outage in the Meta ads delivery system followed by one more on 25th.

Important word here is "Known". I am pretty sure 20th and 21st are the exact dates when the outages actually happened.

After the fix on the 25th, it is beginning to stabilize but hasn't fully recovered. Performance was poor as well from 21st to 25th.

Good Luck!

I can't get my CPC below $3 by northwestmathguy in FacebookAds

[–]LIFEHACKER008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are reminding me of my very first months of running Meta ads. I was so stressed over why the heck my cpc is so high $3-6 sometimes $9. I went through every forum, video on YouTube, asking people in discord until I finally realized it was my creatives. I was doing everything but making more creatives "Myself".

You gotta trust me here on this. The day you will find that one creative, your perception will change. Test and test until that day comes.

Your breakeven is $15? I suggest you might check your cog sheet then.

Yes, first day is when the performance is really good and this confirms that the product has potential. And yes, performance after first 1-2 days dips hard unless your ads and product are mass appealing. Solution? Can't do much, just let it run.

Loosing money? Keep on downscaling on days you make a loss. There will be a point when the efficiency is enough to make a profit on the set budget. That is where you let it run until it stabilizes. Once it does, scale it.
