There is literally no excuse for an agency to run an advantage+ campaign optimized for landing page views. It WILL waste money.
Youāre training metaās AI that your clients are willing to pay for browsers, bots and tire kickers, instead of training it on their actual ideal clients who drive the most value.
Thatās why you think Meta ads are ābrokenā or ādidnāt work for youā. (Sorry for the mic tappies I get heated about this)
3 MOST IMPORTANT THINGS:
1. Campaign Objective (what conversion/action signals to meta that this is a person you want to drive more of. awareness and traffic objectives will not cut it in 2026)
2. Event Tracking (not just for tracking purposes, but for signalling to the algorithm! event tracking needs to be working nearly perfectly for adv+ to know what to do more of)
3. Quality Creative Volume (preferably in a separate testing campaign, especially for testing new markets. your agency should be testing new creative constantly)

The uncomfortable reality?
Many agencies optimize for metrics that make them look good (clicks, impressions, engagement) while your bank account bleeds.
If youāve been running ads for months and still canāt confidently say whether theyāre profitable... letās talk.
