The Facebook advertising apocalypse has arrived!Β 

Interest targeting ends in a few short months. Leaving unprepared advertisers & eCommerce brands scrambling - while those who adapt are set to dominate.

In this episode of Ad Spend Secrets, Luke Smith (Founder of Simply Converting) reveals Meta's announcement to completely phase out interest targeting by June or July.

This is a big deal and a fundamental shift in how advertisers must approach Facebook and Instagram advertising.

Luke breaks down exactly how to thrive in this new landscape by focusing on creative variation and campaign structure.

Learn why product-specific ads can dramatically improve performance, how Meta's algorithm "reads" your creative to find the right audience, and why the new Advantage Plus Shopping campaign structure gives you more control than ever before.
