In the article, you will learn how to use Audience Manager to review and publish your saved audience cohorts generated using TAI Playground for Facebook Ad sets.
The Facebook Audience Manager expands the capabilities of the TAI Playground, allowing you to save, manage, and publish the custom audiences (cohorts) you've created. You can directly create ad sets with desired audience cohorts from Audience Manager and publish these ad sets to Ads Manager. Let’s learn how to get started!
You can watch the video tutorial below to learn how to use Audience Manager for Meta.
You need to generate audiences using TAI Playground for Meta.
You have to save Interest Cohorts and Ideal Customer Persona (ICP) cohorts from the TAI Playground for them to appear under Pixis Draft in Audience Manager.
To access Audience Manager for Facebook on the Pixis dashboard, select the brand account, click "Targeting AI" and select Audience Manager from the dropdown menu.
From the Dashboard, you can view and publish audience cohorts to existing or new campaigns. These Audience cohorts are segregated into the following:
Live Audience
Pixis Draft
Pixis Recommendation
We will learn about these three sections below.
Note: The “Create New Audience” button will redirect you to the TAI Playground.
Audience Cohorts will only appear if the AI Groups have Ad sets published or saved using TAI Playground. Select the AI Group where you’ve generated the Audience cohorts using TAI playground.
You can view a dashboard of ad sets you've published using Pixis recommendations, including their performance metrics (spend, CPR, results). When you select a cohort, you can view the following details:
