Before Starting This Document

Do not start this document until all items from Document 2 are complete: Facebook Page, Instagram, Meta business portfolio, ad account, payment method, WhatsApp Business active, WhatsApp connected to Meta and to the Page, basic reservation logic ready, and launch creatives ready.

2. Final Meta Strategy — 2 Campaigns Only

Campaign 1

Cold WhatsApp Campaign

Starts on Day 1

Campaign 2

Retargeting WhatsApp Campaign

Starts on Day 5 — not Day 1

Barkat will NOT launch with:

Cold calls campaign, lead form campaign, traffic campaign, website campaign, nationwide campaign, or Karachi launch campaign. This is deliberate.

3. Final Objective Choice

Use This Exact Objective

Leads

Destination: Messaging apps → WhatsApp

Do NOT use at launch:

Traffic, Awareness, Sales with website destination, Instant forms, Call-only objective paths, or Messenger as the main destination.

4. Final Budget Inside Meta

Phase Total/Day Multan Lhr+Isb/Rwp Retargeting
Days 1–4 Rs 1,500 Rs 500 Rs 1,000
Days 5–14 Rs 1,800 Rs 400 Rs 900 Rs 500
Day 15+ Rs 2,000 Rs 450 Rs 950 Rs 600
Final 10 Days Rs 2,500 Rs 500 Rs 1,100 Rs 900

Do not increase any winning ad set by more than 15–20% at one time. Do not double budgets suddenly.

5. Final Audience Structure — 2 Cold Ad Sets Only

Ad Set 1 — Multan

  • Location: Multan
  • Age: 28 to 55
  • Gender: All
  • Language: leave blank
  • Detailed targeting: leave blank

Ad Set 2 — Lahore + Islamabad/Rawalpindi

  • Location: Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi
  • Age: 28 to 55
  • Gender: All
  • Language: leave blank
  • Detailed targeting: leave blank

Do NOT add at launch:

Karachi, all Pakistan, overseas locations, luxury-car interests, generic livestock hobby interests. Do not split by gender. Do not split Lahore and Islamabad into separate ad sets — it would spread budget too thin.

6. Final Placement Strategy

Use This Exact Setting

Advantage+ Placements

Do not manually restrict placements at launch.

7. Minimum Creative Set Required Before Launch

Ad 1

Trust Video

Ad 2

Offer Video

Ad 3

Animal Carousel or Static Offer Card

Each cold ad set contains exactly 3 ads. All must be ready before launch. All must have WhatsApp as CTA destination. Do not launch until these assets are ready.

Part F — Exact Daily Operating Rules

22. First 4 Days

DO:

  • Let the campaign run
  • Reply quickly on WhatsApp
  • Note serious leads
  • Watch for setup problems

DO NOT:

  • Pause campaigns too early
  • Change objective or add new cities
  • Add interests or switch placements
  • Rewrite copy every day

Allowed edits in first 4 days only:

Wrong budget, wrong city, wrong WhatsApp destination, wrong Page/Instagram identity, broken upload. Nothing else.

23–24. Day 5 and Daily Review

On Day 5: launch retargeting, review which ad got the best serious responses, review which city is stronger. Pause only clearly weak creative if necessary.

Daily review — only check:

Part G — Exact Optimization Rules

If one ad is clearly weak after 4 days

Pause that ad only.

If both cities are producing but one is stronger

Keep both live. Later shift a small amount of budget toward the stronger city.

If Multan is slower than Lahore+Isb/Rwp

Do not kill Multan immediately. Wait until the weakness is clearly real, not just slower.

If lead quality is weak

Check in order: creative quality → ad copy clarity → WhatsApp qualification quality. Do not panic-change targeting first.

Budget increase rule

Only increase a winning ad set by 15–20% at one time. Do not jump suddenly.

City expansion rule

Do not add Karachi before: phase 1 cities are producing, WhatsApp handling is stable, trust assets are strong, and enough stock remains.
