You bet. Thanks for watching!

Hi, are you using personal ads manager or business ads manager and do you have a preference to suggest? Thanks!

[@tomdupreeiii]

Great question. I always use business manager for everything. It gives me more control and allows me to partner with others if necessary.

Thanks for sharing your results. I'm helping my clients grow their IG's via boosting so this was helpful. However I think you haven't talked about the most important aspect, the creative. Are the videos you are making even ones that people want to watch and follow in the first place? From what I saw they're quick videos with nice motivational messages but not actually giving any insights or helpful tips. They don't even show your face sometimes. My approach is that if a reel is already organically getting views, engagement, and followers we boost it. Think adding fuel to a match that isn't lit versus one that is.

I agree with this. I talk about the importance of creative toward the end of the video from 11:36 on. I also believe it's the most important factor. And I agree with the concept of only boosting "winners" too. This video was more about exploring the mechanics of these different options rather than the process of choosing which video to boost. But perhaps there's an opportunity for another video in there somewhere. Thanks for sharing your experience!
