That said, Facebook ads can be intimidating and costly. And if you're a side hustler, you likely can't drive results since you don't have the money or time to understand the nitty-gritty of online advertising.

"Too often, people are just cranking money into ad spend, without thinking that it will result in sales," saysAmanda Bond, founder ofThe Ad Strategist. "A business needs to have a sales process that works, meaning turning attention into customers in a repeatable way."
