Quick answer: When Facebook Ads spend but sales do not come, check whether the buyer understands the value, trusts the proof, sees a clear next step, and reaches a page that matches the ad promise.
Most people try to fix this by changing targeting. Sometimes targeting is the issue, but many times the problem is the offer. The ad may create attention, but the page does not create enough desire or trust.
