📢Using Facebook Ads

Meta's newest ad format

Meta is constantly testing and changing their ads manager. If these instructions are no longer accurate, please email [e-mail]

2024-11-10 Update

Users have reported not seeing the Send marketing messages message template. While Meta has not changed official documentation since this could be an experiment, 1send has added an alternative workaround.

1send has native integration with Meta's best-in-class ad algorithm to get you the most subscribers. When Meta released Marketing Messages API, they released an accompanying ad format, click-to-subscribe ads.

After a subscription conversion, no need to pay more to reach the same person

Pro	Con
Easy & fast to implement especially if Facebook ads have been used in the past	Additional costs to run ads
Leverages Facebook's reach to acquire new leads	Cost per conversion can fluctuate like all Facebook ads
Optimized for on-platform conversions that improve Meta's algorithms & targeting
