If you are running an election campaign or standing as a political candidate, you probably know you need to run ads on Facebook and Instagram. But most ‘how to’ guides are intended for commercial advertisers, and can be confusing. This course is for you.
I’m a digital consultant for the campaigning sector, with a strong focus on paid social marketing for elections. I’ve helped train political campaigners all around in the world in how to use ads on Meta, from local candidates to leading parties, ministers and prime ministers-in-waiting, and I’ve encountered many of the blockers which campaigners of all levels find challenging.
Even if you have no experience with paid social, by the end of this course, you’ll be ready to start your campaign using Facebook and Instagram advertising. You’ll understand the jargon, plan a high level strategy with tactical goals, you’ll understand the technical processes and you’ll work through the Political Ad Authorisation process.
Don’t risk your campaign’s success by leaving it too late, or winging it using confusing commercial guides. But no need to pay huge fees to digital ad agencies – you can learn how to boost posts and run ads yourself using Facebook and Instagram. This course will show you how to get started, step by step.
