I have never found facebook ads 'worth it'.
Even with professional marketers, total joke and waste of money. People do not click on ads, and those that 'do', might be fake facebook bots or actually facebook messing with numbers.
My new 'ad' is that I make content that people will search for on google. Then they can check out the rest of my website.
- Rjevski 8y agoAs much as I’d love to agree with you there are a lot of idiots out there that click on ads because they legitimately believe it’s a good product/service (hint: if they have to pay someone to shove their product in your face, it’s not a good one), or can’t tell the ads from real content (I guess that’s why “chumboxes” like Outbrain/Taboola are still a thing). I had first-hand evidence of this when my friend fell for some weight loss scam ad of Facebook. We ended up charging it back, and despite all that she’s still not convinced and will happily participate in loyalty schemes, give out personal information to anyone that asks (she literally gets one spam email every few minutes in her Yahoo mailbox) and prefers buying from unknown/shady/scammy sites like Groupon rather than more reputable outlets.

- soared 8y agoYou're doing it wrong. Hire an agency who knows what they're doing. Your "ad" is just content marketing. This difference is you pay with your time (or others time) to create it, rather than paying for it to be put in front of other's eyes.
