We all hate articles or spam emails with clickbait titles claiming “you need to take action on your account because you’re in danger of losing access.” This is not one of those posts. In the last few months, we’ve seen three different clients locked out of their Facebook accounts due to Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) issues. […]
Do you know what hurts me more than my face ID not recognizing me in the morning…? Putting money behind poor Facebook ad creative and messaging. It crushes my digital marketing soul when I see campaigns perfectly set up with the right budget, bid, placements, and audiences only for poor ad copy creative and incorrect […]

Whether you struggled with the wonky ad creation process, were disappointed by limited targeting, or were confused about where to start with their data, I hear you and have been there.
