Step 1: Accessing Your Facebook Business Manager
To begin, you will need to access your Facebook Business Manager account. If you don’t have a Business Manager account yet, you can create one by visiting https://business.facebook.com/ and following the instructions provided.
Step 2: Navigating to the Ad Accounts Section
Once you are logged into your Business Manager account, navigate to the top menu and click on “Business Settings.” This will take you to the Business Settings page where you can manage your account’s settings and permissions.
From the left-hand sidebar, select the “Ad Accounts” option under the “Accounts” section. Here, you will find a list of all the ad accounts associated with your business.
Step 3: Adding an Ad Account
Click on the “Add” button located at the top right corner of the Ad Accounts page. A pop-up window will appear, giving you two options to add an ad account.
