Lead ads are a type of ad that allows you to run lead generation campaigns on both Facebook and Instagram.
How are they different from all other ads that you can try on Facebook? These ads include a contact form that lets people show their interest in a product or service by filling out the form with their details.
Facebook ads are excellent for both B2B and B2C lead generation, because of a wide range of targeting options.

The three essential elements is a/b testing, right format, and drip email that follows.

- Is your ad campaign laser-focused on the audience interests, challenges, needs that you are targeting?
Be honest with yourself.
