Key takeaways

  • Facebook Ads depend on attention and engagement, not search intent, so they build demand before turning it into leads.
  • A working lead funnel runs from scroll-stopping creative and audience targeting through engagement and lead capture to retargeting.
  • Expect the first few days to be testing and the following week to be optimization before leads become consistent.
  • Keep testing creative, use lookalike audiences to scale winning campaigns, and retarget warm audiences who have not yet converted.
  • Lead quality depends on combining strong creative, accurate targeting and a proper funnel, not on any one of these alone.
