It’s easy to create campaigns now. This is the narrative lately, and it’s starting to impact jobs. Clients think they don’t need agencies anymore. They can just handle it internally and pass it off to an intern. It’s just plug-and-play, right? Even some agencies are buying into this. They think they can consolidate jobs because it’s so easy. They value these skills less.

Sharing videos in this format was never my plan. When I first started recording short-form videos , they only lived on each social platform (the logical solution). Eventually, I’d create a custom post type for video posts and I publish each one on my website (like this).

A 300 custom audience limit? How long has this been a thing? Recently I saw this error on my Audiences page: “Too many custom audiences. To regain access to audience sizes for your custom audiences, you must have 300 or fewer custom audiences.” First of all, huh? I’ve never seen this limit mentioned before. Meta’s own documentation says that you can create up to 500 custom audiences per ad account.
