    J, Just to let you know, something I've learned the hard way. When you pause a campaign or adset on Facebook ads, it basically has to start from zero again. They take time and traction (and thus more dumping of money) to "learn" and "optimize." Feel free to PM me and I'll tell you what I've...

    All, We have a group of about 6 or 8 Fastlaners so far meeting up this Friday 3/30 in San Diego. Wanted to reach out to everyone to see if anyone else was missing, or was in the LA/SD area and didn't know about it. Shoot me a PM and come join us on Friday! :)

    FTE EXECUTION 
    Biz 1: Figured it was time to hire a FB ad person for starters. I've been failing and spending money testing, but I want someone that's good at it to show me what's up. Posted on a few FB groups, got a bunch of responses. Mostly agencies (or their salespeople) hitting me up. Most wanted...

    Maverick, Be sure to check on your employer's policy on intellectual property and ideas "invented" while you're still employed there. I worked for an engineering company where ANYTHING that the engineers came up with was legally owned by the company, no matter if they were at home or at work...

    Update Biz 1: Sales still coming in, but I'm trying to scale. Getting my a$$ handed to me in Facebook Ads but I'm still pushing. Redoing all my campaigns again now that I have a better understanding of what to do. Right now, I'm using this method: 1 Product = 1 "Campaign." Each Campaign...

    #DeleteFacebook

    SOCIAL MEDIA OFF-TOPIC 
    I'm under the impression that I HAVE to have a personal Facebook account in order to run Facebook ads, which are essential to my business. I made a second "fake" account with only 1 or 2 friends to run ads, but it was quickly banned. They asked me to upload a photo ID, which I did, but then I...

    I FIXED THAT SHIT. Now off to bed. Best feeling I've had in a while. I also wanted to make a point to let everyone know that one of the best choices I ever made was to remove myself from a negative environment back home. Moving across the country (I count anything over a 15 hour drive far...

    Biz 2: Driving heavy FB traffic to the site yesterday and today. Writing this at 2:00AM still trying to work out an issue with the site. Issue happened today when I added 3 new simple slider images, for promos I'm running (ie buy one, get one 50% off). Now, the theme is screwed up, and the...

    Biz 2: Once I make some more sales off FB, gonna reinvest the profits and send 5-10 products to Instagram models. That's what I'm going to do instead of doing shoutouts. Does anyone have experience doing this? How many times should I ask that they post my stuff?? How should the convo go...

    Update: Biz 1: Got two different video ads created. Running them now on FB ads. We'll see how it goes. Upping my Adspend on FB in general. More testing, more products, more creatives, more copy, targeting, etc. Figured out a bunch of different targeting for FB ads that I didn't even think...

    EXECUTION 
    I second this. Intermittant Fasting has been the best "life hack" I've found in the past few years. If nothing else do it for the mental clarity benefits. I've been doing 20/4 recently, so most of that time is spent in a highend mental state where you're sharp, focused, etc. Almost like...

    That makes two of us haha :) Thanks for the help. I hadn't been posting daily either so I just stacked about 60 posts ready to go out the door so I can easily post them with a few seconds each day.

    Also, is this the "Everliker" you guys are referring to?? I didn't know that you had to have 10k followers in order to use the Swipe Up feature on stories... Does anyone have any objections to using Everliker to get to 10k then shutting it off?? Normally I'm against bots but shit...

    I'll try that for a few weeks and report back for y'all :) THANKS! I've been making tons of sales from "Shoutout posts" where I have an influencer post a sale for my product. Some of them won't post your link in their bio, so I just post it in my bio with a related caption. This has been...

    Are you having success with promoted IG posts?? Can you give a little insight on what you're doing if so? All of mine have failed terribly, I get much better engagement and sometimes even LINK IN BIO clicks by just using hashtags
