    About Meta Ads Manager

    Meta Ads Manager is Meta's tool for running ads on Facebook, Messenger, Instagram and the Audience Network. A step-by-step flow takes you through choosing an objective, picking placements, setting a budget and choosing an ad format.

    After your ads are live, you can edit campaigns, ad sets and ads, and follow results at each level. You can customise columns, save reports and schedule them. A mobile app lets you create, edit and monitor ads from your phone.

    Placements can be chosen by hand or left to Meta to select.

    Pricing: Meta does not charge for Ads Manager itself. You pay for the ads you run, using a budget you set, and there is no minimum budget. Costs build up as your ads run and are charged automatically on your billing date or when you reach a billing threshold.

    Why it suits tourism businesses

    Tourism businesses use Facebook and Instagram ads to reach people planning a trip, and to promote an event, an offer or a new season. Ads Manager is where you set the audience, budget and creative for each campaign.

    Reports show impressions, engagement and purchases, so you can see which ads earned a response. Using the Meta Pixel, you can also show ads to people who have visited your website.
