What Clients Say About Meta Ads

★★★★★

"The Facebook Lead Form ads were a total game changer for us. Buyers fill in their vehicle model, the engine they need, and their phone number — all inside Facebook. By the time we call them back they're already sold on us."

Tony B.
Owner — Texas Used Engine Depot, Houston TX
★★★★★

"We were running Google Ads only. CarPart2U added Meta retargeting and our overall conversion rate went up 38% in the first month — buyers were seeing us everywhere, and it built massive trust before the call."

Carla M.
Marketing Director — AllState Parts Co., Phoenix AZ
★★★★★

"The video ads showing our engines running before we ship them were huge. Customers would message us saying 'I saw your video and I'm ready to buy.' That kind of trust is impossible to build with a text ad — Meta made it happen."

James W.
CEO — Premier Transmission Exchange, Atlanta GA

Meta Ads FAQ

Image ads are static single-photo ads — fast to produce, great for clear offers. Video ads build trust by showing your product or shop in action — higher engagement, better for cold audiences. Lead Form ads are any ad format (image, video, carousel) that opens an instant data-capture form inside Facebook/Instagram — the highest-converting format for generating contact details without requiring a website visit.

Advantage+ (formerly called Performance Ads) is Meta's AI-powered campaign type. You set a goal (leads), provide creatives and audience parameters, and Meta's algorithm automatically finds the best buyers within your target, tests creative combinations, and optimises delivery for the lowest CPL. Our Pro and Enterprise tiers use Advantage+ as the primary campaign type because it consistently outperforms manual campaigns by 20–40%.

Google and Bing capture demand — they reach buyers already searching for used engines and transmissions. Meta creates demand — it reaches car owners before they've started searching, and retargets the ones who found you on Google but didn't call. Together, they create a full-funnel system: Google gets the first click, Meta brings them back. Clients running all three channels see 45–65% more total leads than single-channel campaigns.

Our Starter tier begins with $400/mo in ad spend. For consistent lead volume we recommend $600–$800/mo minimum. Facebook's algorithm needs approximately 50 conversion events per ad set per week to exit the learning phase — so higher budgets exit the learning phase faster and deliver more predictable CPLs. At $400/mo you'll see leads, but at $1,000+ you'll see scale.

Not for lead form ads — buyers submit their details directly inside Facebook or Instagram without ever visiting your site. For retargeting campaigns you'll need a website with our Pixel installed. For click-to-call and click-to-WhatsApp ads, a website is also not required. We recommend having a simple landing page for higher-trust campaigns, and can advise on building one quickly if needed.

Yes — every package includes creative production. We design image ads, carousel cards, and Story ads using your branding and product photos (or stock). Growth tier includes video production with basic editing. Pro and Enterprise tiers include in-house video production including script writing, editing, and UGC-style content. The more visual the format, the more creative support we include.

Lead form submissions are delivered to you in real time via email notification, CRM integration (HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, etc.), or our lead dashboard. On Growth+ packages we can also set up instant auto-reply texts or emails to the lead, so they're engaged within seconds of submitting. Speed to contact is the #1 factor in lead conversion — ideally you're calling within 5 minutes.
