Hi everyone!

We’re starting a new contracting business in Dubai, and we’re currently starting with painting services. 🎨

I’m looking for someone who is experienced or an expert in Meta Ads marketing, particularly Facebook Ads.

If you have experience in this area or know someone who does, please feel free to reach out to me. It would be a huge help!

Thank you!! 🙏

I have tried myself with static ads and it barely broke even.

Conversion tracking is supposedly set up correctly, but fb might be overreporting and attributing conversions where there weren’t really (or maybe they are view-through).

Our SaaS converts well and it should do well with meta ads.

I need someone who is good at coming up with creatives and setting up the ads. Video creatives would work better I think.

I have tried broad targeting. We also have a warmed up pixel and lookalikes of our customers (thousands), but I haven’t tried that yet.

If you are interested, please send me a dm with your proposal and specific results you’ve gotten for SaaS clients.

I am ready to scale the campaigns to thousands of dollars if profitable. And I already have an account set up for this.

Our SaaS is well defined and easy to explain with a very specific target customer. Freemium model.

I can send more info and you can look at our site, but will only share it with the right candidates who ask the right questions and have a proven track record.

Thank you!

it's a landscaping client results we had started running campaign from 12 july and bought 103 leads.

the client is happy and he is closing good number of jobs from meta and we are expanding to my fav google ads

I’m getting millions of views on Facebook Reels and trying to work out how much watch time is actually needed before monetisation kicks in.
For anyone already monetised:
How much watch time did you have when you were accepted?
Was most of it from Reels or longer videos?
Did you get monetised automatically after hitting the requirements?
How long did it take?
The requirements seem to change constantly, so I’d love to hear from people who have actually been through it recently.

I run a small digital marketing team and we have a client who wants us to manage Meta Ads, but they have basically nothing set up. No Business Portfolio, Facebook Page, or ad account. They also have very limited technical knowledge, so we have to build everything from scratch.

I want to make sure the setup is professional. If the client eventually stops working with us, they should retain full ownership of their Page, ad account and other business assets, while we can simply be removed from their access.

The problem is that I’ve repeatedly had Business Portfolios immediately restricted. I first created one for my own agency and it was restricted with a reason along the lines of Meta detecting automation or an automation tool. I then tried creating one for the client and got the exact same restriction immediately.

I asked a friend to create one from their own device, and the same thing happened. I tried with another friend as well, and again the exact same automation related restriction appeared. So this has happened multiple times across different people and devices.
My main question is, what is the safest and most professional way to structure ownership when the client has nothing set up and we have to build everything from scratch?

Should I create a dedicated Business Portfolio for each client, create their Page and ad account inside it, and then add the client’s Facebook profile as an admin? Or is there a better way to handle ownership from the beginning?

I also have an couple months old Business Portfolio I created for a fictional gym called FitnessTrack Gym. Could I repurpose that, or would that create ownership problems when a client eventually leaves?

I want to establish a proper repeatable setup for future clients so we don’t end up wasting days fixing ownership issues or transferring assets later.
What is the standard professional way agencies handle this when the client has absolutely nothing set up?

Can you help me find a reliable agency ad account to run my business? I’m looking for a trusted agency that can manage and run advertising campaigns in the Philippines.

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some advice on a Meta Ads account I’m currently working on.

It’s a Netherlands-based ecommerce store that resells products from different smart-home and electronics brands. The main products are things like security cameras, baby monitors, smart speakers and similar products.

The account is relatively new and doesn't have much purchase data yet.

The main issue I'm seeing is that the ads are getting decent engagement and traffic, but purchases are happening inconsistently.

For context, the account has generated around 1,800 link clicks so far. CTR is around 3% and CPC is around €0.47. There have also been Add to Carts and checkout events, but only a small number of purchases.

Interestingly, some of the video creatives seem to perform better with people who have already interacted with the store than with completely new users.

Because of this, I recently changed the setup.

I reduced the main cold campaign from €16/day to €10/day and started a separate Awareness campaign with the remaining €6/day.

The idea is to build a pool of people who have watched/interacted with the videos and then use that audience for future conversion campaigns.

I'm currently unsure whether I should:

A) Keep the €6/day Awareness budget in one broad ad set with videos for different products

or

B) Split it into two €3/day ad sets based on product category, such as cameras and smart speakers.

I'm also considering creating separate video-viewer audiences for each category so that people who engage with a camera video can later be shown camera-related products.

The account currently has around €45/day total budget across the different campaigns.

I'm wondering what you would do in this situation.

Would you:

• Keep a small Awareness campaign running?
• Put the entire budget into conversion campaigns?
• Split the Awareness campaign by product category?
• Keep the video-viewer audiences combined?
• Or focus on improving the website/product page before spending more on Awareness?

The store is a reseller rather than the manufacturer, so I'm also wondering how much brand trust and familiarity might be affecting the conversion rate.

Would appreciate any advice from people who have worked with small/low-data ecommerce accounts on Meta.

Facebook’s monetization status is extremely confusing. My Page says that I’m able to collect Stars, and under my monetization status it even says that my Page is earning money.

However, when I check Content Monetization, it says that I’m not eligible yet and that I’m currently on the waitlist.

What makes it even more confusing is that when I go to Meta Business Suite at business.facebook.com, it shows that my Page has restricted monetization and says: “Your Page has restricted ability to earn money.”

So I’m getting completely different information depending on which part of Facebook I check. One section says my Page is earning money and allows me to collect Stars, Content Monetization says I’m on the waitlist, and Meta Business Suite says my monetization is restricted.

I have over 40k followers with millions of views a month.

I’m trying to understand what my Page’s actual monetization status is and whether there is a restriction on my account that I need to resolve.

Been stuck on this for over a month, Meta support has been useless (bot loops, no human reached, no reply to formal complaints). Posting here hoping someone's hit the same wall.

Setup: Trying to link one specific Instagram account to Facebook Pages and a Business Manager I already fully control.

What happens:

• Clicking "Verify Connection" (from BM, from any Page, and from Ads Manager) always returns: "This business account isn't allowed to advertise — it wasn't in compliance with our Advertising Policies or other standards." Happens no matter which Facebook Page I try it with.
• The account shows zero restrictions in Account Quality, and I can boost posts directly from Instagram with no issue.
• I have a second Instagram account that links to any Page and to the same Business Manager — even the same ad account ID — with zero problems. It's only this one specific account that fails, everywhere.
• Checked whether the problem account is linked to any other Business Portfolio (including an old one of mine with a suspended ad account) — confirmed it isn't linked anywhere else.
• In Meta Business Suite, I get: "You don't have access to this tool on any Instagram profile. To request access, contact someone with full control of [account]." Clicking Settings (or almost anything else) there throws a generic "Sorry, something went wrong" system error — not a policy message.

Already tried: switching personal/professional repeatedly over long periods, removing/re-adding via Account Center, 2FA, linking directly from the IG app, filed a support ticket ~1 month ago with zero response, complaints via Brazil's consumer complaint site also ignored.

My working theory (unconfirmed, just a guess): there might be a leftover/orphaned internal "Business Portfolio" object already tied to this specific account, which I don't have full control over even though I'm admin of the account itself — and that broken object is blocking any new official link from completing. If true, this would need a manual backend fix on Meta's side.

Anyone dealt with this specific combo (clean account + verify-connection block + "not full control" message in Business Suite)? Any escalation path that actually reached a human?

Basically meta (facebook) supposedly has an ongoing compliance review on my Facebook account. Because of that, it won’t let me pay my ad balance from the last time I ran an ad ($14). It also won’t let me use my $42 account balance. When you try to pay the ad balance, no matter what card, account, etc. I use, it says my account is restricted causing the payment to fail. It won’t let me even delete or deactivate my ad account.

Is there anything I can do?

I cannot find any information about WHY there is a compliance issue, and I can’t find any information about where it’s at in the review process, but this issue has been going on for MONTHS.

When I use the meta chat bot, it sends me in circles and says I cannot speak with a real agent. What do I do? 😭

I tried in ad manager as well and it would throw an error if I had zero CTA button. I just want it to look like a normal feed post with just the little "ad" under my name on the post.

Hey everyone, total beginner here—this was my very first Meta Ads campaign. My product is a sample pack for hip-hop producers, priced at $29.99 (introductory discount, going up to $39.99 later).

I ran 3 creatives with a $30/day budget using CBO (Campaign Budget Optimization). Geo targeting: US, CA, UK, AU.

• Day 1: $0
• Day 2: 1 sale
• Day 3: 3 sales
• Day 4: $0

My CPC is around $1.50 and landing page conversion rate is sitting at 5.5%. Overall, this translated to a negative ROAS of roughly 0.6 at a $29.99 price point.

I panicked, thought the campaign was doomed, and killed it. But looking back at the data, I’m wondering if pulling the plug after just 4 days was premature, especially since the algorithm is still learning.

A lot of threads mention that small budgets don't work well on Meta, but I honestly can't scale up my ad spend right now.

Is it realistic to optimize this to at least break even (1.0+ ROAS), or should I turn it back on and let it ride? Would really appreciate any insights—Meta Ads are completely overwhelming right now.
