Anybody recommend a good FB ad course?

9 replies
Hey team,

I'm looking to test some ads on Facebook...Ive had some experience in media buying but little with FB ads....

Are there any respectable 'Guru's' out there that offer a decent FB ad course?

Kind regards.

      can you help me friend I see that facebook updated the ads manager. Everything is the same, but in my case, when I'm trying to type my 3 "competitors" in the interests, they don't show up. Anyone knows what I can do to have the people that like my competitors pages, to be targeted by my ads, since they don't appear in the interests?

        Hi, I just checked that for you on my end and I cant find it either... I didn't even know you could do that....so it sounds like you know a little more than me.... thus the reason I need some more training. Sorry I can't help you mate.

    I learnt this all myself and through trial and error - Facebook do have some fairly good tutorials though and most of the information I have bounced off colleagues, this is why WF is such a great resource. Have you set up any advertising campaigns as yet? what industry is your business in and what is your CTA?

      Hi GingerNinjas,

      I've set up a campaign... and the tutorials are very good - but FB has a dodgy reputation for giving false info (and lies about clicks)....So I'm looking for those little 'hacks' that give you that marginal edge... the niche is self help/spirituality and the CTA is a quiz that collects leads for a mailing list. Do you know any little tricks that target your demographic better? Kind regards

    A lot of it you can learn through trial and error and spend less money than paying for a course. Of course it's easier said than done sometimes so I don't think taking a course is a bad thing.

    I do know that "Facebook Blueprint" is a course and certification process that is approved by Facebook. You can find them on Facebook. Hope that helps you.

    Learning about this stuff is pretty simple and if you are determined you can easily teach it yourself. A lot of tutorials are available on youtube offered by many tech nerds who give you clear enough information to launch your ad compaign. Apart from that look out for blogs published by different internet marketers who offer lucrative tips regarding how to effectively go along with FB ads.

    Cheers-James

  • My suggestion would be to start with facebook's free course https://www.facebook.com/blueprint and then supplement it with articles from top facebook advertising experts like Kim Garst or Jon Loomer.
    Their paid facebook courses are expensive though $347 (Kim Garst), $497 (John Loomer).
