Don’t get discouraged if you don’t see results right away
As with any marketing campaign, it can take some time (and patience) to see results.
Facebook’s algorithm works to learn, adapt, and show your ad to the right people, called the learning phase. This is the period when the delivery system is learning about your ad. During the learning phase, the delivery system is exploring the best way to deliver your ad set to the right audience.
Additionally, Facebook advertising is a skill that can be sharpened with more practice. Which leads us to the next point...
Do experiment with your ads
Once you have gotten some experience with ads and have results to compare, optimize your marketing efforts by experimenting with your ads.
Here are some parts of your ad to experiment with:
Headline
Ad copy length
Call to action
Image
Audience
Please note that Facebook suggests waiting 14 days before making any significant changes to your ad.
Don’t use too much text in your images
When using text on your image, try a smaller font and fewer words to lower the proportion of text to image. Research from Facebook has found that images with less than 20% text perform better, though there is no limit on the amount of text you can use on your ad image.
Do use the correct specs
When it comes to creating ads, ensuring that all parts of the ad—design, text, specs—are optimized to their fullest potential is crucial to getting the best results.

Don’t forget to proofread all copy
To keep your ads looking as polished and professional as possible, it is important to proofread all the copy in the ad and the image itself. Double check that the spelling, grammar, and punctuation is correct.
For extra assurance, seek a second opinion. If that’s not possible, take a break and come back to your content with a fresh set of eyes.
