Course Description

Summary:

Learn from a Best Selling Udemy Instructor. Adam has two of Udemy's best selling courses under his belt, so you know that you're in safe hands when you enrol in one of his courses.

Follow along as I teach you how to launch, manage and measure Facebook Ads from the very beginning. From creating a Facebook Page and Ads Manager account all the way through to using advanced audiences and advert creatives, and powerful targeting techniques. Learn the steps that I take and the strategies that I use to build and grow my multiple 6-figure E-Commerce business.

About Your Instructor:

Adam has run E-Commerce ventures since he was just 15 Years Old. With 7 Years under his belt, he's now 23 and specialises in Dropshipping. In 2016 he demonstrated his knowledge and ability in the E-Commerce field...

Firstly, on eBay, he started with £0, and was able to turn over £8000 in 8 weeks, without having ANY inventory.

More notably, in September he launched a brand new website on Shopify. Within 3 weeks he had already turned over more than £1000 in a single day, and within 3 months had already received multiple 6-Figure valuations for the website. Less than 4 weeks in to 2017, this website finally hit 6-Figures in Gross Sales in GBP £. A couple of months on and Adam now runs a huge multiple 6-Figure business, relying on Facebook Ads for a large amount of traffic, revenue and profits.

Facebook Ads play a pivotal role in the rapid scaling of Adam's business, and played an equally important role in the launch phase, too.

Follow along and learn the knowledge and skills required to run profitable Facebook advertising campaigns to promote and sell almost any product and/or service you like.

A Word from Adam:

I'll be showing you the steps, tips and strategies that I implement in my Facebook advertising campaigns in order to maximise and increase profits while optimising my advertising budget. From different advert creatives to clever copywriting skills, this course will show you it all. You'll learn everything you need to know in order to build your own successful online business with Facebook Ads, that you can run at any time, anywhere in the world.

The beauty of an online business advertised using Facebook Ads, is that it can be run from anywhere in the world. This year I aim to work remotely on my Shopify and Facebook Ads ventures from at least 3 different countries.

Watching this during the global pandemic (August 2020). Even though the interface of Facebook has quite changed since 2017, the content in this course is still applicable entirely. I was surprised at how Adam manage to organize the explanation and make such a concise course about Facebook Ads. I have no experience in it so far and as a complete beginner, I can say that I was able to understand everything, including the marketing language that he introduces.

By DenisRomanello on 3/29/2020

The course was very good from my perspective. The teacher Adam is very clear and it is easy to realise that he tries to detail very well the full process. Probably I am not the very best person to rank anybody because I am a very beginner. I still have a few doubts, especially regarding case studies shown. However I loved the way he divides the corse into very small operations and details. It helps us to absorve better the information.

By Carmine Trotta on 11/25/2019

I AM HOOKED! GREAT COURSE! The tutor Adam Reed with this course wants you to understand what you are going to do and how to manage FB ads giving you detailed inside explanations and examples. It's a bit outdated, because FB has changed, but nevertheless I gave 5 stars because, giving him some credits, he promised to update it soon and formerly students will have free access. Thanks Adam!

By Hector Bravo on 2/4/2019

The good: course is well organized and has good content. The bad: is outdated (example: doesn't include budget optimization and other new features), 90% of the course is watching business manager screens, needs more diagrams or pictures to clarify concepts. There is not much about testing strategies for new products, and case studies are not helpful.

By Maxine Emmanuel on 10/8/2018

It's good BUT as a complete beginner, I was not sure how the structure of Facebook ads worked. I had to go and do extra research and was very confused before I managed to figure it out. For example, I was not 100% sure which type of objective campaign to run for my very first ad. I also wish there was more detail about scaling your ads and when to stop them. Plus they do not tell you how and what are indicators to kill the ad sets. But It was good because If you willing to do extra research and take this course you should then have an understanding of how Facebook ads work.

By Mike Mac on 3/4/2018

Instructor is very knowledgable. He needs to actually show some products without blocking everything. He could of easily tried to sell something outside his niche in his case study. This would of really helped the student have a clear visual of the process.

By Ankit Gupta on 12/25/2017

I really loved the course. It's very straight and to the point with lots of practical, in-depth and accurate knowledge. Instructor really knows what he is teaching and adopts a very practical approach. I will start my own E-commerce site soon and implement whatever I have learned from the course. I have few queries which I will post into the Q&A. Hope they will be answered soon. Only improvement required is about the case study. They just include the results and not the process in details.

By Kyle Freel on 12/19/2017

The content was in depth and touched on points that I had never known could be done with Facebook Ads. I was stressed out over them before this course and now I am able to organize my thoughts and utilize the tool. I would have given 5 stars, however, your voice is a but stale and boring. For the future, maybe try making the course a bit fun?

By SOON LEONG ONG on 12/5/2017

The lessons were easy to follow with hands-on examples. Only thing is sometimes the screen turns blurry when the lecturer tries to focus on something. This is when i got lost because i cannot see where i was. Apart from this downside, the course is simply fantastic. One of the most wonderful part of this course is that it allows me to learn at my own pace. This is especially important to a slow learner like me.

By Radu Costinean on 11/1/2017

I can't believe I finished this course. It took like an eternity to finish it. Boring AF! The PROs: Adam seems to be a smart guy and knows how to run, manage and promote an online business. If you are a beginner, have a lot of patience, you will learn useful stuff from his lesson. The CONs: Adam spends waaay to much time on useless things. For example he shows you how to tag someone in a post/picture on FB. Come on, man, even my grandma knows how to do it! And is not engaging at all. I don't think I could follow him more than 2 hours a day. Also don't wait for any "advanced topic", "advanced tips" or "insider tips"... there aren't any. If I remember well, at some point he says "If you want lower CPC, target 3rd world countries ;) " That's a PRO tip! And then he wastes 5 minutes to list which are the 3rd world countries... However these are the final thoughts. I DO recommend you this course if: 1. You buy it for 10$ and are a total n00b. Then it's worth the investment. Watch it from start to finish and you will learn some things about it. 2. You buy it for 10$, are a beginner with Facebook Ads and are too lazy to use Google, take this course. You might find it interesting here and there, especially on scaling your ads. But, again, you will find a lot of info (and much more) just using Google. I DO NOT recommend you this course if: 1. You are not a beginner any more; 2. If you are looking for advanced Facebook tips and techniques; 2. You don't want to waste 10 hours for "advanced tips" which you can find elsewhere.
