So what makes an effective Facebook ad? The key is to create a message that catches your audience's attention and evokes emotion, not using a bribe and without misleading them into thinking that they're requesting information on something that's free. But it's all psychology. So here's the exact process that we use to create an ad on Facebook. The simplest way to get into the head of your ideal customer is to create what's called a wish list.

And then your headline is going to be talking about what it is that they're either qualifying for looking at.
