Questions

Meta Ads, answered straight.

How do I lower my Meta ads cost per lead?

Start with tracking — run the Pixel and Conversions API together with deduplicated events, then consolidate campaigns, use broad audiences with Advantage+, refresh creative every 3–4 weeks, and follow up every lead within five minutes. The free playbook covers all 25 checks.

What is a good cost per lead on Facebook ads in 2026?

It varies by industry, but the 2026 cross-industry median cost per acquisition is around $38.99. A well-optimised account should aim to beat its own industry benchmark rather than a global average.
