Meta is where most competitor research starts, because the ad library is public. Closing the loop means launching there too, rather than exporting your findings into Ads Manager and starting again.
Step 1: Connect your Meta ad account
Connect my Meta ad account.
That runs connect_ad_account and takes you through Meta's OAuth. Approve it once.
Then confirm what you can reach:
Which ad accounts can I launch into?
If you manage several accounts, check you are pointed at the right one before anything spends.
Step 2: Have the creative ready
Meta ads need images. There are two routes:
- Clone a proven competitor ad. Find their long-runner, clone it for your brand, then launch the result.
- Use your own images. Upload what you already have and launch those directly.
Step 3: Launch single image or carousel
The number of images decides the format. One image is a single-image ad. Between two and ten becomes a carousel, with each image as a card.
Launch these three images as a carousel ad at $30 a day.
Say the budget explicitly, as always.
Step 4: Review before it spends
Same checklist as any platform, and worth repeating:
- The daily budget you set
- Geography
- The exact creative and the order of the cards
- The destination URL
- The primary text and headline, read as a customer would
Step 5: Manage it from the same place
Pausing, resuming and budget changes work from chat, so you do not need Ads Manager for day-to-day adjustments.
FAQ
Do I need a Facebook Page?
Yes. Meta ads run from a Page, so the ad account needs one associated with it. This is a Meta requirement rather than anything specific to AdWhispr.
Can I launch a carousel?
Yes. Pass two to ten images and each becomes a card. One image gives you a single-image ad.
Can I launch a video ad on Meta?
Image and carousel ads are what launch today. For video, TikTok has the full video-ad builder, and Meta video creative can still be produced and downloaded to upload yourself.
Is the ad live immediately?
Review what gets assembled before you approve the launch. Meta also runs its own ad review, which can take a little time before delivery begins.
Can I clone a competitor's Meta ad and launch it on Meta?
Yes, and that is the shortest version of the whole loop: find their winner, clone it for your brand, launch it. Copy the structure, never their assets.
