How We Achieved a 30% Brand Awareness Increase with a $5,000 Meta Ads Campaign for Men’s Hairstyling Wax & Clay
Defining the Target Audience
For a successful ad campaign, pinpointing the right audience is crucial. We targeted:
- Men aged 18-40 are interested in grooming, fashion, and hairstyling.

Each ad used a strong call-to-action (CTA) like “Shop Now” or “Get the Perfect Hold Today!” and was optimized for conversions.
