Advice on making FB Ad accounts

Just wondering if any of you guys have any advice for me in making FB Ad accounts. Before I had a rep and was able to get advertising accounts but now I believe all ad accounts have to start off as personal accounts.

Any tips would be appreciated!

You can make accounts directly through the Business Manager.

They want you to make an account for each client to separate them, so you don't need a rep now (they purposefully phased this out so that they don't need reps to make grey accounts constantly).

I understand that part, but when I make personal accounts, sometimes they get banned right off the bat. Asking for ID. Or when I get past that part and I get to business manager I put up a safe ad and then baam, asks for ID. LOL

Well, I suppose the point of the Business Manager is a bit hamstrung if the personal account attached to it is flagging it.

For us affiliates how is this interpreted? In the business manager, should we create different ad accounts per each vertical we promote?

I’m just concerned about being compliant with Facebook..

I'm struggling with this as well- if one of those associated ad accounts gets banned, do the rest fall to pieces as well?

From FB FAQ:

If someone who works on your Page posts something that doesn't follow the Facebook Community Standards, the Page may be unpublished. To avoid having your Page unpublished:

Only assign Page roles to people you trust
Review the Facebook Community Standards
Check your Page and remove anything that doesn't follow our standards

In business manager. If you have 10 Ad accounts and even only one is red flagged, each and every ad accounts gets paused, you need to fix the red flagged ad account first to get the other 9 back to running

If you're creating ads straight after making the account then you are asking for trouble

That's what I thought. Thus, 1 account per biz manager per client. No sense in playing with fire and linking multiple accounts.

Yeah the Business Manager is convenient for separating accounts by vertical/offer and payment methods to compartmentalise things.

But Facebook are still going to burn you just as readily with account bans... Facebook doesn't make these updates with any intention of helping you out in that regard.

My personal account is banned, it's in business manager with many other legit accounts, no issues but I'm not into dirty verticals.

i am confused,do i open a business account or keep it personal? my personal account was banned last year I had to open another under someone else name.

You can open a business account also. Its a bit red flag that personal account is banned but its NP. You will keep the biz acc live, some days atleast, ehe

01-27-2015 06:05 PM #15 atom64 ()

hm if you create a business acc is it possible to setup ad acc and submit camp right away ?

01-28-2015 06:15 PM #16 heapheap (AMC Alumnus)

Yes, you need to create an ad account in business manager, add a credit card and launch a campaign. Its quite fast procedure but... I only was able to get 1/4 of the impression on the same market with the same audience on business account compared to personal account. I think fb wants to manually check the biz acc before sending big traffic. Only my thoughts..

i am bit confused when it comes to biz account creation.do we use our personal account to open a biz account on FB?what if my personal account is banned already?
do i just open a new personal one with my name and biz name under business account?
