Hm. Interesting. I have always used Facebook ads without any previous knowledge and done everything pretty much on a trial-and-error basis (using small sums to start off with).

I’m sure a course like this can be useful, but I think it’s mainly just about knowing exactly who you are targeting and having an effective sexy ad. It works quite ok for my website.

But may be there is stuff I am missing! :slight_smile:

I am going to school for Public Relations, not marketing. I am interested in purchasing the entire e-marketing package along with Facebook Ads 101.

However I am curious as to how it will benefit my PR skills. I have limited experience with marketing. Thanks

any future PPV classes ?
