Giacomo Difino/Solutions/Meta Ads

Every euro spent, a result you can verify.

Boosting a post is not advertising. I build Facebook and Instagram campaigns that start from the data: who the ideal customer is, what a lead is worth and which message actually convinces them.

Why it matters

Advertising isn't expensive. It's expensive when it isn't measured.

With a measurement setup that works, budget moves on its own towards what brings customers. Without it, you keep paying just to find out, month after month.

Boosted posts

The “Boost post” button spends your budget on the easiest audience to reach, not on the one that buys. The result is plenty of likes and no phone calls.

Campaigns built around the business goal

Numbers that don't add up

The dashboard claims forty leads, the phone rang six times. Without verified events you don't know which campaigns deserve budget and which should be switched off.

Events verified browser-side and server-side

Budget that burns down

The same creatives for months, on the same audience, with the same offer: cost per lead creeps up and nobody notices until it has doubled.

Continuous testing, and a stop on what doesn't pay
How I work

Measure, build, test, report

Four steps that repeat every month. It's the reason cost per lead goes down instead of up.

Measurement

Reliable data first, budget second

Pixel and Conversions API work together: the browser sends the event, the server confirms it. That way conversions don't get lost to blockers, and Meta learns on real data instead of half the data.

  • Business Manager, Pixel and domain verified.
  • Contact, call and purchase events checked one by one.
  • No campaign starts before the numbers add up.

Structure

Three audience layers, one budget

Someone who doesn't know you needs a different message from someone who already visited your site. I split the budget across three layers and shift it as the numbers show where a lead costs less.

  • Local audiences built on your real catchment area.
  • Dynamic remarketing on people who already engaged.
  • Budget reviewed weekly, not quarterly.

It's the message that makes the difference, not the audience

I write the copy and set the direction for images and video, then compare two angles at a time on the same audience. The winner takes the other's budget, and the test starts again.

  • Copy written for your sector, not catalogue phrases.
  • Vertical formats for stories and reels, not just squares.
  • One live test at a time, so you can tell what worked.

Same budget, same audience: only the angle changes. The winner takes the loser's budget, and the test restarts with a new variant.

Reporting

One page a month, readable in five minutes

How much we spent, how many leads came in, what each one cost and what I'm changing next month. No metrics added for volume: only the ones you make decisions on.

  • Spend, leads and cost per lead month over month.
  • The decisions taken, written down.
  • Weekly review of the numbers, without waiting for the report.

The path

From audit to ongoing management

No surprises: from the start you know what happens, in what order and what's needed from you.

01

Audit and measurement

I check the account, tracking and events. Without reliable data, any optimization is a gamble.

02

Strategy and creatives

We define offer, audience and message; I prepare copy and creatives in several variants to put to the test.

03

Launch and testing

Campaigns start with a cautious budget: angles get tested, what doesn't perform is switched off, the rest is scaled.

04

Optimization and reporting

Ongoing management with a weekly review of the numbers and a clear monthly report, free of jargon.

Frequently asked questions

The answers before we start

To collect useful data you need at least €300-500 per month in ad budget for a local business. Below that threshold campaigns gather too little data to be seriously optimized.
