Facebook Ads Manager is a unified ad creation tool that you can use to create and publish ads to Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, and Facebook Audience Network. The ad creation workflow is made up of three distinct levels:
| Level #1 | Level #2 | Level #3 |
|
Campaign Level: This is where you select your campaign's ad objective or overall goal. |
Ad Set Level: This is where you define the audience that you'd like to reach, choose your ad placements, determine a budget and set a schedule. |
Ad Level: This is where you'll design the ads themselves. You can choose your ad format, upload images and video, and add text, links, and more. |
To Create Ads in Ads Manager:
- Create your campaign: From the main table in Ads Manager, select Create to open the Create new campaign window. In this window, you'll select the objective for your new campaign, ad set and ad. You can also use existing campaigns, ad sets or ads to create new ones.
- Refine your settings: Select Continue to move on to the editing pane and choose details such as your audience, placement, ad format and more.
- Publish or save as draft: When you're ready, select Publish or Close to save your draft.
