Key Insights - 3 Insights

Why do we create ad sets inside a campaign instead of adding all ads directly to the campaign?

Ad sets allow targeting different audiences and budgets separately, as shown in steps 3 and 5 of the execution_table.

What happens if we change the budget in an ad set after launching the campaign?

The campaign adjusts spending for that ad set, affecting ad delivery and performance, which is part of the Monitor & Optimize step (step 8).

Can a campaign have multiple goals at the same time?

Typically, a campaign focuses on one main goal to keep ads focused, as set in step 1.

Full Transcript

A digital marketing campaign starts by defining a clear goal. Then, a campaign is created with a name. Inside the campaign, ad sets are added to target specific audiences and set budgets. Each ad set contains ads like images or videos. After setting up, the campaign is launched to run ads. Marketers monitor performance and optimize by adjusting budgets or ads. The campaign runs until goals are met or it is stopped manually.
