After creating Facebooks Ads audiences in HubSpot, you can use your audiences to target new and existing ad sets. 

Please note: Facebook limits each ad account to 500 total audiences. If you have 500 existing audiences in your Facebook Ads account, you will not be able to create a Facebook ad audience in HubSpot.

Select HubSpot audiences for new Facebook ad sets

When setting up a new Facebook ad set, you can use a HubSpot audience. Once you publish your ad campaign, Facebook will show the ads in this ad set to the users in your selected audience.

To select a HubSpot audience for your new Facebook ad set:

  • Log in to your Facebook Ads account.
  • In the left sidebar, click the alignJustify all tools icon. Then, click Ads Manager.
