At my company, Manila Workshops, we used to run workshops that focused on teaching micro-small-medium enterprises or MSMEs how to run Facebook Ads. They would normally understand everything and grasp all the concepts, but would be sad to find out that the only way you can run ads on Facebook is if you have a credit card or a PayPal account.
Credit card penetration in the Philippines (the last time I checked) is around 3% (*check out this report by We Are Social and Hootsuite: https://www.slideshare.net/DataReportal/digital-2018-philippines-january-2018). I think the reason for this really is that approval rate is low, because not a lot of us have credit history. There is a lack of basis for credit ratings.
So going back to this promotion concern of MSMEs, it was great to see this new partnership between Globe myBusiness and Facebook.

Creating an Ad
All you need to do is visit https://globe.onlinesales.ai/. You can also Call 121 or visit a Globe Store near you.
Once your account has been verified to be a Globe myBusiness number, you will see a dashboard. You can then start creating Facebook ads.
The first thing that you need to do is to choose the objective. In this particular Globe myBusiness system, they limited the choices to just 3 available objectives to choose from. This is so as not to overwhelm you anymore with the choices.
You can choose from Brand Awareness (to introduce your product or service to a target market), Messages (to promote your product or service using messenger) and Lead Generation (to collect information from potential leads).
After choosing the objective, you can choose between Display Ads or Carousel Ads (multiple images).
The next step is to add an image. You can upload your own image or choose from the Stock Photos available.
Then, add the headline (title), description (describe the value that you are extending your potential customers), URL (enter the link to your website or link to where they can learn more about your services), Call to Action button (you can choose from what’s available). You can then save and launch your ad!
By the way, you can choose to either have a Php 1000 or a Php 500 budget for running your ad. There will be a 15% management fee, so if you choose Php 500, the charge will be Php 575 (exclusive of VAT).
So that’s it, my dear business owners / entrepreneur followers. This is how you run a Facebook Ad charged to your Globe myBusiness ThePLAN.
