We recommend preparing at least five ad creatives so that Meta AI can learn from a variety of responses. Specific methods for creating diverse ad creatives are covered in the article “How to Create Meta Ads.”
1. Understanding the Campaign Structure
Wadiz Targeted Ads consist of three levels: Campaign → Ad Set → Ad.

2. Steps for Creating Your First Campaign
STEP 1. Select the project stage and campaign objective in Biz Center
- Launching Soon Project: Sign Up for Notifications
- Current Funding Projects: Payment Conversion
The project stage and campaign objective must align so that Meta AI can identify supporters who are likely to sign up for notifications or make a payment.
STEP 2. Set your budget and duration
On Meta, a daily budget of at least 100,000 won and a campaign duration of at least 5 days. It’s important to consolidate conversion data into a single campaign rather than splitting your budget across multiple campaigns.
STEP 3. Upload your creatives
Prepare at least 5 images, videos, and pieces of copy, and upload at least 5 ads with different messages and formats.
- Problem-Solving
- Feature Demo
- Comparison-Based
- Trust-Based
- Benefit-Focused
STEP 4. Link the landing page and verify the content
Make sure the content highlighted in the ad matches the first screen of the product detail page. For example, if the ad emphasizes “a tumbler that doesn’t retain odors,” the same benefit should be immediately visible on the first screen of the product detail page.
STEP 5. Perform a final check before launching
- Campaign Objectives
- Budget and Duration
- Ads
- Link to Product Detail Page
Start the campaign after verifying the items above. The article “How to Evaluate Targeted Ad Performance” covers how to assess results after the campaign launches.
*During the period when the AI is exploring the optimal delivery method after you create or modify a campaign, initial performance may be unstable and the cost per acquisition (CPA) will be high. Generally, if you achieve at least 50 optimization events (subscription sign-ups or completed payments) within about 7 days, the machine learning phase is successfully completed and performance stabilizes.
3. Keep Campaign Structure Simple
- During the period before launching soon, start with a single campaign aimed at collecting sign-ups for notifications. Creating multiple campaigns with the same goal can分散 your budget and optimization events, which may slow down AI training.
- Once the main funding campaign begins, the goal will shift from sign-ups to payments, so you’ll need to create a separate campaign for the main funding phase.

Within a campaign, you can separate ad sets based on your objective: non-targeted ads to acquire new users and retargeting ads to re-engage existing prospects.
4. Avoid making frequent changes during the campaign
If you frequently change the settings below after launching a campaign, it may disrupt the AI’s learning process or cause it to restart.
- Changing Targeting Settings
- Changing Optimization Events
- Adjust the budget by more than 20% at a time
- Repeatedly adding or replacing creatives at short intervals
- Pausing a campaign for 7 days or more
If adjustments are necessary, rather than making changes immediately based on a single day’s performance, it’s better to review the training period and metrics, then group the necessary changes together before implementing them.
When should you make adjustments?
After thoroughly reviewing the data, make your decision following the steps below.
|
Check First
|
Meaning
|
Action
|
|
CTR
|
Are people clicking on the ads? | If the click-through rate is low, revise the ad creative |
|
CPA
|
Are the conversion costs appropriate? | If high, review ad creatives and landing pages |
|
ROAS
|
Performance relative to ad spend | If it’s low, review Rewards and coupons as well |
Common Mistakes
- Turning off ads the very next day after they start
- Making significant changes to the budget
- Continuously changing ad creatives
These actions force the AI to retrain, which can actually delay the stabilization of performance. It’s best to review the performance and implement all necessary changes at once.
5. Checklist for Setting Up Today
Go through the items below to finish creating your first campaign today. Here, we’re only checking whether the creation is complete.
- Have you set a campaign goal (launching soon/Main Funding)?
- Have you set a daily budget of at least 100,000 won and a campaign duration of at least 5 days?
- Have you created separate ad sets for new and retargeted audiences?
- Have you uploaded at least 3 (preferably 5) ad creatives?
- Have you verified that the ads link to the product detail page?
6. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. Does wadiz handle the ad setup as well? Or does the maker have to handle everything, including creative planning?
A. This is a question makers frequently ask. The AI automatically handles identifying users most likely to engage and adjusting ad placement and timing. However, makers must decide on the campaign goal, budget and duration, ad creative preparation, and linking to the product detail page themselves.
Q. What exactly does “retargeting” refer to?
A. Retargeting is an ad set designed to reach supporters who have already visited the wadiz platform or shown high engagement with a project. Conversely, non-targeted (new audience) advertising uses only minimal criteria—such as location, gender, and age—to allow Meta AI to broadly discover new potential supporters.
