Very thorough. He explains the process of using Facebook for advertising. I was hoping to learn more about utilizing my own Facebook page for advertising and not paying for ads. Nice illustrations. Speaks clearly and easy to follow.

This course definitely is a great match for me to understand just how important Facebook can help an agent with the right targets, how many people potentially can click on ad or news feed. I can't wait for the next module!

Excellent Job! Please update the content with the new rules of the Facebook now! Like there is no "Likely to move" and we can not use the income segmentation. Please provide us with the new ways and more effectively to advertise in Facebook. Thank you. I enjoyed your course!
By Sean Tavalozzi on 2/11/2019
I know how to create Facebook ads, and that is what this course focused on. Great for someone who is just starting and has no idea about what FB ads are about. I was hoping the course would dive deeper into targeting specific demographics (first-time home buyers, sellers, etc.) That did not happen. If you are looking for a basic overview this works well. I you are looking for more depth this is not for you.

I felt it was right for a novice to start. Am ready to begin advertising. I would have liked a little more about instagram instead of just crossing it out. Good tempo--ideas presented very well with good background.
By Jo-Ann Floreal on 6/20/2018
really good. ran my first ad after model 5 as I was excited to try it. Received 11 clicks, and one sound lead that has turned into an appraisal next week. For a 13$ ad spend, on a potential 15,000 commission, I'd say that's worth it!
By Viola Haegele on 4/25/2018
Although I'm still slightly confused, the step by step process does help for building up to doing it by myself.
By Debbie Brock on 3/15/2018
Overall a very good course that got me to understand how Facebook ads work for my real estate business. I would definitely recommend anyone starting with Facebook ads to take this course!
By Mark Crowell on 2/28/2018
Haven't applied any strategies yet, but have better insight on creating and testing FB ad campaigns. Would like to have more takeaways (checklists, infographics, visuals), even a few slides from the slide deck would be valuable.
By William Smith on 1/9/2018
The course was pretty good overall however, when setting up ads, you did not show the completed product. When you click "learn more", it should show the final steps on setting up and did not
