320. Salome Answers Your Burning Ads Questions

Author: Salome Schillack October 30, 2025 Duration: 28:15

Tired of waiting for the "perfect time" to run Facebook ads? 🚀

Here's the truth: Meta is always going to change. While you're waiting for ideal conditions, other course creators are scaling to six figures because they learned how to adapt instead of wait.

I've spent 10 years running Meta ads and I've seen it all—account shutdowns at 5 AM, mysterious disapprovals, ads that suddenly tank. Every single frustration has a solution that doesn't involve giving up on ads entirely.

In this episode, I'm walking you through the four most common Meta ads frustrations that stop course creators in their tracks, plus exactly how to navigate each one so you can build an ad strategy that works right now.

🔥 In This Episode:

  • The exact steps when Meta disables your account (stop negotiating with the algorithm and take your power back)

  • Why your previously successful ads stopped working and three specific things to check first

  • The truth about algorithm changes (I've seen ONE major change in 10 years that truly impacted results)

  • Why hiring an ads manager didn't work and what you need to master before scaling with paid traffic

✨ Stomach clench every time you think about ads? Stop letting fear keep you stuck!
