How To Run Meta Ads for The Light Poet
Let's walk through every part of your client system — together.
🟠 Step 0: Before running any ads…
Let's walk through every part of your client system — together.
Is your Instagram ready? (bio, content, story highlights)
Is your lead magnet page working?
Do you have an email sequence set up in Mailchimp?
Does your Instagram bot reply to “SESSION” and “BRAND”?
Is your TidyCal booking page functional?
We never run ads into a broken funnel.
🟠 Step 1: Choosing the right ad goal
Inside Meta Ads Manager, we choose just one clear goal:
Messages
leads to your DM bot (ideal for trust + flexibility)
Traffic
if you want to grow your email list
Conversions
only if Pixel is active and you want direct bookings
🟠 Step 2: Using your real content
You don't need to create new material.
I help you select:
  • A Reel, Carousel, or post that already performed well
  • A testimonial or client quote that feels like your voice
  • A calm, poetic image that matches your tone
Then I adapt it into ad copy:
  • Hook
  • Message
  • CTA (ex: DM "SESSION" or click to explore)
We'll test 2–3 versions together.
🟠 Step 3: Setting your audience
I set up your audiences based on connection :
Warm
Instagram engagers, email list, Reels savers
Cold
People in your region interested in slow living, emotional photography, creativity
Lookalike
Based on your past audience, if available
🟠 Step 4: Launching calmly
  • Budget: £5–10/day for testing
  • Platforms: Instagram Feed + Reels + Stories
  • Duration: 5–7 days
  • Pixel: optional, but recommended for later retargeting
🟠 Step 5: Tracking & improving
After 2–3 days, we'll check:
Link clicks or DM replies
CTR (Click-through rate)
Cost per result
Booking activity
If needed, I’ll guide:
🔄 Testing a new version
🎯 Narrowing or expanding your audience
📸 Swapping visuals or copy
After 7 days, we'll know what works — and you'll have a repeatable ad that brings results.
This was just one example of how your ad campaigns and monetization pathway can be structured.
