Media buying on Facebook, Google, TikTok. WTF is going on?

[Summit]

ok so i posted about this already but seriously losing my mind over fb google and tiktok ads. like i watch all the tutorials read threads try to copy what works but it feels like the platforms are just trolling me. spent a whole week setting up campaigns tweaking ads messing with bids and what do i get? crickets or just awful ctrs. then i see ppl killing it with the same offers and budgets that seem impossible and im just sitting here confused. also these ad policies change constantly how is anyone supposed to keep up? swear ive spent more time fixing disapprovals and account bans than actually making any money. worst part is i paid for decent creatives they look good but still zero conversions. idk if im doing something wrong or the algo just hates me but im honestly so fed up. anyone have actual tips or just wanna vent about this mess? cause right now it feels like im just burning cash with no real answers

disagree - i actually found fb and google pretty predictable once i nailed my targeting and creatives, tiktok's still tricky tho

You might wanna focus on narrowing your audience even more and testing different creative angles, sometimes the same offer needs a fresh spin for each platform. Also, keep an eye on those policy updates and adapt quick, don't get stuck fixing disapprovals all day. I swear it's a constant game of trial and error. Peace out.

targeting and creatives are definitely key but honestly sometimes it feels like the platforms are just playing games with us especially with all the policy changes and algo tweaks ymmv but I swear the moment you think you got it all figured out they pull the rug again

Last month I did the same, spent ages just trying to get some traction. I swear the more I tweak, the more it feels like the platform is just trolling us. Sometimes I think it's just about luck, not really doing anything wrong but still getting nowhere.

Ever been there man, I spent weeks chasing shadows on FB ads and felt the same, then I randomly switched up my landing pages and suddenly conversions popped off like crazy, sometimes it's just random luck or maybe the algo just hates us for real, but yeah keep testing different angles and maybe tweak your funnels too, trust me that's where I found my wins. Catch you later and stay persistent

You know what, I actually had a moment like that last month. I was stuck on FB for ages, tweaking everything and nothing was working. then I changed my ad copy and threw in a new landing page, bam conversions shot up. sometimes it's just about shaking things up and not overthinking the platform's mood.

 

[Hook]

Just my 2 cents, I don't think persistence alone is enough sometimes. I've seen folks grind for weeks and still get nowhere, then suddenly hit a break when they least expect it. Honestly, sometimes it's just luck or timing, not pure hustle. ymmv

 

[Weave]

Bruh, I feel ya. Ads are getting way more volatile lately, spend is up but conversions are down or super inconsistent. Been running on TikTok and Google for a while now, and honestly, the platforms keep shifting the goalposts. Gotta stay nimble or you're gonna get left behind.

Careful with thinking it's just you man, I've been messing with Google and TikTok lately and the landscape is straight chaos. One day it's cheap and conversions are flowing, next day it's like pulling teeth and CPCs spike out of nowhere. Just gotta roll with the punches and keep testing new angles, I guess.

 

[Flex]

yup, that's the vibe right now. Best move is to keep testing different audiences and creatives constantly, ymmv but staying flexible helps stay ahead of the chaos.

 

[Urgency]

85% of my tests lately just flop but then I hit one that hits different, so yeah, just keep swinging

 

[Chisel]

Ad fatigue on all platforms is insane right now. You think you're crushing it, then bam, everything drops. gotta stay nimble and keep testing, no way around it.
