What we recommend for your business

Turn real work into a clear offer

Use recognizable projects or products, a relevant audience and prompt follow-up.

Plan the response

Make the offer and response channel clear, then compare replies and appointments instead of treating reactions as jobs.

Our recommendations draw on the research below and your business’s goals.

Make local details useful to the customer

Use these Portland corridors when they match a real visit or service request. A customer on 82nd Avenue and one headed to the Central Eastside may need different arrival, coverage or booking information.

82nd Avenue / Jade District

PBOT places Jade at 82nd and Division within the eastside civic corridor.

For your marketing: Use the 82nd Avenue business's own product, team or customer example, then link to current hours or booking details.

Central Eastside

PBOT distinguishes industrial and central-employment parking zones and describes limited street parking.

For your marketing: Show a Central Eastside business's real work or product and tell interested people whether to visit, call or request an appointment.

Facebook & Instagram advertising / Dinosaur Roofing

From brand-new business
to $10k+ monthly profit.

We created and managed Meta advertising for Dinosaur Roofing, supported by the website and brand we built for its launch. We refined the path from an ad to an inquiry, including forms, calls to action and the mobile experience.

Facebook & Instagram AdsWebsiteGoogle Ads
Inside the project

Brand development began in January 2026. The website followed, and Google and Facebook campaigns were live by March 2. The team then refined forms, buttons, and the mobile experience. The team later shifted emphasis toward Meta and tested a more focused Google campaign.

The profit milestone is reported by Heart City Marketing’s owner. It has not been independently verified against client financial records and is not a forecast for other businesses.

Facebook and Instagram advertising

What our Portland Facebook and Instagram Ads work includes

Facebook and Instagram campaigns built to earn attention.

For a Central Eastside maker and a service team responding to a request near 82nd Avenue, show the visitor's actual pickup details and confirm where a crew can go. Our Facebook and Instagram Ads work starts with that customer decision.

Audience and campaign strategy

Start with a product, project or customer problem your team can explain and an audience you can actually serve.

Facebook and Instagram advertising

Use Facebook and Instagram placements that fit the creative and response path rather than posting the same asset everywhere.

Lead generation campaigns

Ask for only the details needed to check fit, then plan how staff will respond to each message or lead form.

Ad creative and copy

Use real photos, customer questions and a specific offer to make the work recognizable in a feed.

Retargeting and follow-up audiences

Follow up with interested people when the audience and permissions support it, without assuming every viewer wants an appointment.

Creative testing and campaign reporting

Compare creative by useful replies, appointments and costs; reactions alone do not establish business value.

The work, the fit and the tradeoffs

Give people a reason to stop, care and respond.

Build demand with a clear offer

Facebook and Instagram ads reach people while they browse; they are not the same as a customer actively searching Google for a service. Creative, useful examples of your work and a clear offer need to earn attention.

Choose a relevant audience and geography

We build campaigns around the customers and areas you can serve, using the targeting options available for the campaign. Platform rules and restricted categories can limit audience selection. An institution nearby is not evidence that we can target its employees or know who they are.

Choose the right inquiry path

An in-platform lead form can reduce friction; a website destination gives customers more room to evaluate the service. We weigh that tradeoff with qualification needs and how quickly your team can respond.

Test creative and review the conversations

We test messages and creative, then review inquiry quality alongside campaign costs. A cheap form submission is not necessarily a qualified customer. Paid Meta campaign management is distinct from an ongoing organic social posting service.

What makes a useful ad creative brief?

Start with the service, customer problem, offer and real examples you have permission to show. Approved photos, stories and clear limitations make stronger material than unsupported claims.

What happens after someone submits a lead?

Your response process matters. Before launch, agree who receives inquiries, what qualifies a good lead and how follow-up outcomes will inform the campaign.

Ask us
What makes a Facebook or Instagram offer useful in Portland?

Show a real product, project or customer problem, then ask for one clear action. The strongest message looks and sounds like the business and leads to a response your team can handle. For a Central Eastside maker and a service team responding to a request near 82nd Avenue, show the actual product or work and say whether the response leads to a visit or a booked call.

Should an ad mention 82nd Avenue?

Mention the place when it helps someone understand where to visit or whether your service reaches them. We use actual operating details, not a neighborhood name added solely to make an ad feel local.

What creative do you need from us?

Real photos, examples of completed work, product details and common customer questions are a strong start. We can shape those into messages for feed, stories and other placements that fit the offer.

How should we handle messages and lead forms?

Pick the response channel your team can monitor. Ask only for details needed to check fit, respond promptly and record which conversations become appointments or suitable opportunities.

How will we evaluate Meta Ads?

We compare creative, response quality, appointment outcomes and cost over a sensible test. Likes and impressions can explain reach, but useful customer conversations decide whether to keep investing.
