How much should you really be spending on Meta (Facebook) ads? In this episode, we break down why there’s no universal daily budget - and how to calculate the right number based on your goals, expected cost per result, and campaign structure. Instead of copying someone else’s setup or guessing based on screenshots, you’ll learn how to reverse-engineer your budget using realistic CPA expectations and the data the algorithm actually needs to perform. We also cover why most advertisers aren’t under-spending — they’re over-complicating. Fragmented campaigns, too many ad sets, and mismatched creative volume can dilute even healthy budgets and create unstable performance.Â
If your ads feel inconsistent or stuck in learning, this episode will help you simplify, consolidate, and make smarter budget decisions without spending money you don’t have.
