Beginner concerns are normal
Open a question to see the next safe step.
“I have never run advertising”
Start with free content and one template. The next lessons will break down your first creative step by step.
“What if I waste my budget?”
Do not begin with a large budget. Set a single-test limit, use a demo account when demonstrating the product, and show your plan to a support agent.

Use one ready-made campaign: a specific traffic source, one creative, and one clear offer. Examples and templates will be covered in a separate lesson.
