01 · The real problem

Why most Meta ads lose money, and it is not Meta’s fault

Likes feel like progress. But an ad is not working until it brings a lead you can call, or a sale you can count.

Let us use three shoe sellers as an example. Bola, Chidi and Amaka each sell sneakers in Lagos, and each spends the same budget on Facebook and Instagram in one month.

Bola boosts her posts. She gets 900 likes, 40 comments and one “How much?” in her DMs. The boost sent people to her post, not to her shop. Zero sales.

Chidi hires his cousin. The cousin runs a Traffic campaign from Ads Manager and reports 2,000 clicks. Nobody checked that the website takes nine seconds to load on a phone. Three enquiries.

Amaka runs Meta ads built to sell. Leads objective. A short form. Three ads tested, one scaled. The pixel and Conversions API send her sales back to Meta, so it learns who buys. Every lead gets a WhatsApp message within five minutes. 61 leads. 14 orders.

Same budget. Same city. Same sneakers. Different Meta ads. The three sellers are an illustration, but we meet Bola and Chidi in almost every Meta ads review we do.

Amaka’s month. Ads that ask for a lead, a form that takes a minute, and a reply within five minutes.

An illustration with example numbers. Real results depend on your offer, your prices and how fast you follow up.

The six places Meta ads leak money

We find these in almost every Facebook and Instagram ad account we review. Each one has a fix.

Leak 01

Boosting posts

Boost is built to promote a post, so it chases likes, views and messages, not buyers. It is the most expensive way to get attention that never pays.

Fix: Ads Manager, Leads or Sales objective
Leak 02

The wrong objective

Ask Meta for clicks and you get clickers. Ask for leads or purchases and the system finds people who do that.

Fix: pick the objective you can bank
Leak 03

Flying blind

No pixel, no Conversions API, no idea which ad brought the sale. Meta learns less, and so do you.

Fix: pixel, Conversions API, source codes
Leak 04

One ad, forever

People see the same creative until they stop noticing. Costs climb, results fall, and nobody knows why.

Fix: 3 to 5 new creatives a week
Leak 05

A slow page after the click

You paid for the click. Then a nine-second page or a 12-field form sends the buyer straight back to scrolling.

Fix: fast page, short form, WhatsApp
Leak 06

Slow follow-up

A Harvard Business Review study found firms that contacted leads within an hour were nearly 7× more likely to qualify them. Most leads wait a day.

Fix: alerts and a 5-minute reply target

Meta ads are not a slot machine. They are a sales system, if you build all six parts.

02 · Pricing

Meta ads pricing: four ways to work with us

Clear prices, in writing, before you pay anything. Our fee is separate from your ad budget, which you pay to Meta from your own card. Pick your currency, then pick how much of the work you want done for you.

Show prices in
Naira prices are our Nigerian price list, for businesses in Nigeria and the rest of Africa. Dollar, pound and euro prices are for businesses outside Africa, including Africans in the diaspora selling back home and businesses coming into Africa. Your ad budget is paid to Meta separately, from your own card, and is never marked up. Monthly plans run 30 days from launch. Creative shoots and extra landing pages outside your plan are quoted before the work, never slipped into the bill.

Every plan is scoped and staffed to reach the outcome on its card, and we commit to every item listed. Nobody can promise an exact cost per lead, because every platform sells ads through an auction, which is why every plan tests every week and shows you the numbers as they are. The fee structure is the same on every platform; what changes between plans is how many platforms, ads, pages and people you get.

What Meta charges, explained simply

Meta charges you for showing your ads, through an auction. Your ad budget goes to Meta. Our fee is separate, and we never mark up your spend.

You set a daily or lifetime budget in Ads Manager and pay Meta directly from your own card, so every receipt is yours. Meta sets no large minimum, but a budget too small to buy enough results never gets past Meta’s learning phase, so we tell you honestly what Meta ads cost in your market before you start. In Nigeria, ad accounts can be billed in naira. Meta’s billing guide explains how charges work. Ad spend is paid to Meta, separate from our fee, and we show you both every week.

How we count what is in each plan

A price only means something when you know what counts. This is ours, in writing.

Our fee and your ad budget

Two separate payments. Your ad budget goes to Meta, from your own card, in your own ad account. Our fee is for the work, paid to us. We never mark up your spend and you see both every week.

The 20% rule

You pay the flat monthly fee until 20% of your monthly ad spend is bigger than it. The percentage replaces the flat fee; it is never added on top. On a ₦2,000,000$5,000£4,000€4,500 budget, Grow Every Week costs ₦400,000$1,000£800€900 that month.

The minimum ad budget

₦300,000$1,500£1,200€1,350 a month, paid to Meta, and ₦3,000,000$10,000£8,000€9,000 for Own Your Market. Below this, Meta rarely gets enough results to leave its learning phase, and you would be paying us to manage a budget that cannot win. We say so before you start.

A creative

One finished ad: an image or a short video or reel, with its headline, primary text and call to action, built for a specific audience and placement. Variations of one idea count as one creative.

A lead and a customer

A lead is an enquiry Meta or your form recorded: an instant form filled, a WhatsApp chat started or a call placed. A customer is a lead that paid. We report both, because 100 cheap leads nobody can reach are worse than 20 enquiries that buy.

A month

Thirty days from the day your campaign goes live, not the calendar month, so a mid-month start does not cost you days. Cancel with 14 days notice. Your ad account, pixel and audiences stay yours.

Pay in naira, dollars, pounds or euros by card or bank transfer. Not sure which plan fits? Use the free budget calculator further down, or message us and we will tell you honestly, even if the answer is the smaller one. Need Meta ads as part of a bigger plan, with SEO, a website that sells and WhatsApp to close? See our growth plans and pricing.

03 · Why it works

Why Meta ads still work in 2026, with the data

Your customers are on Facebook and Instagram every day, and Meta’s system is better than ever at finding the ones who buy. The right Meta ads put your offer in front of them at the right moment, and the right social media marketing keeps you there between campaigns.

Where your customers spend their day

Over 50 billion searches happen every day. Google gets about 13.7 billion of them.

That is roughly 27%, by NP Digital’s estimate. Instagram alone handles about 6.5 billion searches a day, and billions more people scroll Facebook and Instagram without searching at all.

Meta ads reach people before they search. Google catches the buyer who already knows what they want. Facebook ads and Instagram ads create the want, then bring the buyer to you. That is why our Meta ads work hand in hand with Google ads, SEO and WhatsApp.

Three facts that decide whether your Facebook and Instagram ads pay

From Meta’s own reports and independent research, with the sources linked.

+14%more ad impressions across Meta’s apps in a year

Meta, Q2 2026. Average price per ad also rose 12%. More ads are being shown and each one costs more, so sloppy campaigns bleed faster. Source.

6.5Bsearches a day happen on Instagram

NP Digital, March 2025. Instagram is now a search engine. When someone searches “sneakers Lagos” or “dentist Coventry”, a well-built Instagram ad can be the answer. Source.

7×more likely to qualify a lead when you reply within an hour

Harvard Business Review. Ads bring the lead. Speed closes it. That is why follow-up is part of every Meta ads campaign we run, not an afterthought. Source.

Myth check

“Facebook ads do not work any more. Everyone is on TikTok.”

Meta reported $60.8 billion in revenue in one quarter, up 28% in a year, almost all of it from advertising. Businesses do not keep spending more on something that stopped working. That proves the platform pays for the advertisers who keep paying for it, not that any one campaign will. Facebook advertising and Instagram advertising work. Badly built Meta ads do not, and that is what most people have tried. We run TikTok ads too, when your buyers are there.
04 · Where to run them

Facebook ads, Instagram ads or both? The honest comparison

Meta ads is the umbrella. Facebook ads and Instagram ads are the two biggest places they run, and one campaign can run on both at once. We run all three ways for our clients, depending on where your buyers actually are.

COMPAREFacebook ads onlyInstagram ads onlyBoth, in one campaignBoosted post
Best forReach, older buyers, local services, groups and Marketplace shoppersFashion, beauty, food, lifestyle and visual brands with buyers under 45Most businesses. Meta places each ad where it converts cheapestGetting more eyes on one post. Not for sales

How we actually decide: most new campaigns start on both Facebook and Instagram with Advantage+ placements, so Meta’s system can show us where your leads are cheapest. After two to three weeks of data we lean into the winner, and some clients end up Instagram-only or Facebook-only on purpose. Placement details from Meta’s placements guide.

07 · Safe and yours

Your ad account, your pixel, your data: and no restrictions

Two things ruin Meta ads for small businesses: an agency that owns the account, and ads that break Meta’s Advertising Standards and get the account restricted. Our Meta ads services are built so neither happens to you.

What gets ad accounts restricted

Before-and-after body images, miracle claims and “guaranteed” results
Calling out personal traits, like “Are you overweight?” or “Struggling with debt?”
Landing pages that do not match the ad, or have no contact and refund details
Borrowed accounts and shared logins, which trip Meta’s security checks
Bought engagement and fake reviews
Restricted categories like loans, housing and health run without the right settings

A restricted account can take weeks to recover, and some never do. We would rather say no to an ad than lose your account.

How we keep your account safe

Your Business portfolio, ad account and page, with you as the owner
Partner access only for our team, which you can remove in one click
Every ad checked against Meta’s standards before it goes live
Honest claims backed by your real results and reviews
Two-factor security and no shared passwords, ever
Your card, your receipts: ad spend is paid to Meta from your own account

Local rules apply too, from ARCON in Nigeria to the ASA in the UK and the FTC in the US. We write ads that pass them.

Your account. Your pixel. Your customers.

We set everything up in your business’s name: the Meta Business portfolio, the ad account, the pixel and every audience. If we ever stop working together, you keep it all, including the data Meta has learned about your buyers. Whoever you hire, insist on this.

The honest part: in the same Study With FM account, a Canada event campaign brought 78 leads at ₦937.95 each, nearly three times the cost of the best campaign. We turned it off within days and moved the budget. Twenty campaigns ran in that account in 2025, and the winners got the money. That is the job: not every ad wins, but every naira, pound or dollar follows the ones that do.

Honest limits

What Meta ads cannot do, and who should not hire us

Good Meta ads are powerful. They are not magic. You deserve to hear the limits before you spend a single naira, pound or dollar.

Meta ads cannot

Sell a product people do not want at that price
Fix a slow website or a form nobody finishes
Close leads that nobody calls back
Replace reviews, delivery and customer service
Promise an exact cost per lead before testing
Win on a budget too small to learn from

Ads bring the lead. The rest of the system closes it, which is why we connect Meta ads to conversion, WhatsApp and email.

We are probably not right for you if

You want guaranteed sales from day one
You sell something Meta’s standards do not allow
You will not share prices, results or your real reviews
Nobody on your team can reply to leads
You want the agency to own the ad account
You want to switch the ads off after one week

If you want to learn it yourself first, start with our Facebook ads course.

The people

Meet the people who run your Meta ads

Meta’s system does the maths. People do the thinking: the offer, the hook, the video, and the call to the lead five minutes after it lands. When you work with us, these are the faces behind your Facebook and Instagram ads, and you can message any of them. Meet the whole team.

Questions people ask

Meta ads: your questions, answered

What are Meta ads?

Meta ads are paid adverts that run across Meta’s apps and placements: Facebook, Instagram, Messenger and the Audience Network, plus ads that open a WhatsApp chat. You build them in Meta Ads Manager, choose a goal such as leads or sales, choose who should see them, set a budget and pay Meta only when the ads are shown. Done well, Meta ads bring leads and customers every day at a cost you can measure.

Are Facebook ads and Instagram ads the same as Meta ads?

Yes, mostly. Facebook ads and Instagram ads are both Meta ads, built in the same Ads Manager and paid for in the same account. One campaign can run on Facebook only, Instagram only or both at once, with Meta choosing where each ad converts cheapest. We run all three ways, depending on where your buyers are.

How much do Meta ads cost?

Two costs. The ad budget goes to Meta through an auction, so there is no fixed price per lead. It depends on your market, offer, creative and landing page, and we take on budgets from 300,000 naira, 1,500 dollars, 1,200 pounds or 1,350 euros a month. Our management fee is separate and fixed: Launch Right is a one-off 250,000 naira, 500 dollars, 400 pounds or 450 euros; Grow Every Week is 200,000 naira, 600 dollars, 480 pounds or 540 euros a month, or 20% of ad spend, whichever is greater; Run It For Me is 450,000 naira, 1,500 dollars, 1,200 pounds or 1,350 euros a month, or 20% of ad spend; Own Your Market, for corporations and multi-country brands, is 1,200,000 naira, 4,000 dollars, 3,200 pounds or 3,600 euros a month with a minimum ad budget of 3,000,000 naira, 10,000 dollars, 8,000 pounds or 9,000 euros. On the monthly plans you pay the flat fee or 20% of ad spend, whichever is greater, never both. Everything is written down before you pay anything, and our small business marketing plans keep it realistic for smaller budgets. If Meta ads are part of a bigger plan, see our growth plans and pricing.

What is a good cost per lead on Facebook and Instagram ads?

The one that leaves you a profit after the lead becomes a customer. A 10,000 naira lead is cheap for a property developer and ruinous for a bakery. For reference, our Arya Marketplace campaign brought website leads at 41.30 naira each and Study With FM at 337.22 naira each. We judge every campaign by cost per customer, not just cost per lead.

How long before Meta ads bring results?

The setup usually takes one to two weeks, and the first leads often arrive in the first week the campaign is live. Meta says an ad set usually leaves its learning phase after about 50 optimisation events in seven days, though many good campaigns run with less, and the real improvement comes from two to four weeks of testing creatives and audiences. Expect a fair picture after 30 days, and a strong one after 90.

Should I boost posts or use Ads Manager?

Ads Manager, almost every time. Boost is built to promote a post, so it chases likes, comments, views and messages, which is why boosted posts bring attention and few sales. Ads Manager lets you choose the Leads or Sales objective, test several ads, retarget visitors and track what each ad earns. Boosting is fine for a quick push on a post that already works. It is not a sales system.

Can you run Instagram ads only, or Facebook ads only?

Yes. Some of our campaigns run on both at once with Advantage+ placements, some run only on Instagram, usually for fashion, beauty and lifestyle brands, and some run only on Facebook, usually for local services and older buyers. We start where the data says your buyers are, then narrow or widen based on cost per lead.

Do you make the ad creatives?

Yes. Our content team writes the hooks and copy, and we produce short videos, Reels, images and carousels sized for every placement. Where it helps, we use photos and videos of your real products, team and customers, because real beats stock. Tired creatives cost more, so we refresh three to five a week on monthly plans.

Do you run lead ads and click-to-WhatsApp ads?

Yes. Lead ads use Meta’s instant forms, so people enquire without leaving Facebook or Instagram, and we send each lead to your WhatsApp, email or CRM in seconds. Click-to-WhatsApp ads open a chat instead, which suits businesses that close in conversation. Our WhatsApp marketing services then turn those chats into paid orders.

Who owns the ad account, pixel and data?

You do, from day one. We set up the Meta Business portfolio, ad account, page access and pixel in your business’s name, and our team works through partner access that you can remove in one click. Ad spend is paid to Meta from your own card, so every receipt is yours. If we ever stop working together, you keep everything.

My ad account got restricted. Can you help?

Often, yes. We review why Meta flagged the account, fix the ads, landing pages or settings that broke Meta’s Advertising Standards and submit a clear appeal. Some accounts recover in days, some take weeks and a few never return, which is why every ad we run is checked against Meta’s standards before it goes live.

What are the Meta pixel and the Conversions API, and do I need them?

The pixel is a small piece of code on your website that tells Meta who visited, added to cart or bought. The Conversions API sends the same events from your server, so they still arrive when browsers block tracking. Together they help Meta find more people like your buyers and help you see which ad made the sale. They do not catch every sale, but without them Meta learns less and you see less, so for any campaign that should bring leads or sales, you need them.

Do you run Meta ads for businesses outside Nigeria?

Yes. We run Facebook and Instagram ads for businesses in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and the Netherlands, as well as across Nigeria and Africa, and our diaspora marketing team runs Meta ads for Africans abroad selling back home. Ads are remote work, run on Ads Manager, WhatsApp, email and video calls.

Do you guarantee results from Meta ads?

No, and nobody honest can. Meta’s auction, your market and your offer all move. What we do promise is the work, written into the scope: the right setup, honest creative, weekly testing, a fast follow-up routine and a plain report of what every naira, pound or dollar brought. If a campaign is not working, we tell you and change it, as we did at Study With FM.

Can I learn Meta ads myself?

Yes. Our Facebook ads course teaches account setup, creative, targeting, tracking and scaling step by step, and our digital marketing strategies hub shows where Meta ads fit. When you would rather have it done for you, that is what our Meta ads services are for.
