Pro Tip

Daily Budget
As you're getting started with your Lead Gen campaigns, set your daily budget at 10x your expected CPA (non FinServe clients).
Ad Groups
When building your ad groups, add around 3-5 creatives within each group. Too few ads (1) will limit the ad delivery of the ad group and too many (10) will limit the exploration of the ads.
Forms
Be conscious of number of questions. If you’re looking to generate more lead volume, set a maximum of 6 questions.
