Facebook Ads Manager Tool
I've said it in the past and I'll say it again: I'm always looking for ways to make the most of my time. Whenever a process can be sped up or automated, I'm all for it.
Most of the time, I share these tools with you. There are, however, a few tools I have not shared with you about... and this is one of them.
As many of you know, facebook's ad system can be very tedious, and to resolve that problem, Jacob and I have been using Facebook Ads Manger extension for Firefox.
I've used this over the past few months and it has literally redefined how I look at facebook as an advertising platform, and has helped me to make hundreds of thousands of dollars instead of what I was making on facebook advertising platform (very little in comparison).
So What Does Facebook Ads Manager Do?
Facebook Ads Manager allows you to automate much of the tedious ad submission process saving you an innumerable amount of time.
Customization
The toolbar allows for the creation of facebook ads in any way possible. It has all the features you'd expect and allows for split testing by image, text, location, age, and gender. You can even save your settings in a .ad file for later use, or to transfer them to co-workers between computers whether by email or otherwise.
Ad Naming
Ad naming is also an awesome feature. With the ability to add details like targeting information and sub ID, you can easily track your best performing ads. The tags also work in ad titles and and copy for easily including such things as age or country, state, and city names in your geotargeted ads.
Value: Save Time
What's even better is that upgrades are released on a regular basis. As facebook has been updating their platform, the developer of this tool, Jonny, has consistently been rolling out updates.
Although the $200 price tag could seem a bit high, there is SO MUCH value in this that it's an absolute steal. There is a monumental difference between time spent setting things up with this tool vs. if we actually had to take the time to make all our ads manually. It really does pay for itself practically overnight.
How does facebook feel about this tool?
I asked my Facebook Rep about the automated tool and if Facebook was ok with it. Our rep was perfectly ok with it, so there's a bit more security knowing that facebook ads manager is here to stay and they are ok with people using it.
UPDATE: Version 6 released!
Just 10 days after publishing this post, 4houraffiliate released a new version of the tool with some great improvements! Check it out:
- Remove icon for ad copy and images. Now you can remove unwanted images and ad copy from your setup.

- Image previews. See small icons of your images in the sidebar.
- Variable insertion into the url. Use the same insertion variables as the ad names to customize your urls. eg: url.com/?sub={country}-{gender}-{age}-
- Continue subids. Enter in where you want to start your subids.

For international ads, script files are now encoded to support international character sets (ISO-8859-1). Also, you will now be able to enter in city/state info for other countries - if they are supported.
