Each video in this elearning series is super-short and easy to follow. Although the elearning videos follow a sequence, you don’t have to follow them in order. You can view them at your own pace, picking up wherever it makes the most sense for you.

Lesson 7: Iterate, Iterate, Iterate

Sometimes that means keeping all the ad creative the same, but changing the targeting parameters by one variable, perhaps adding gender, or age range. Other times it means keeping the targeting parameters the same, but changing one thing in the creative.

Lesson 8: Pivot

It may not be easy to accept that we need to continue recrafting our ad, but the results of pivoting may be worthwhile.
