If you've ever run a Lead Generation campaign and felt like you're not getting the most out of it, then you should try to do lead generation remarketing ads. What does this mean, you ask? Well essentially, you can target people who have seen your ads and clicked on your lead form but didn't submit. Perhaps, they accidentally closed the window before completing the form, or they thought about filling it out later yet they forgot. These are people who have already expressed an interest in your company, but for some reason, they never submitted the form. By retargeting them, you may be able to encourage them to take action this time around. This easy, step-by-step guide will show you how to create and use lead-generation remarketing audiences in Meta Ads.
