How can I use the call to action feature in my ad?
The call to action (CTA) feature in ads allows you to select specific prompts like ‘learn more’ or ‘get quote’ to encourage user interaction, or you can leave it on automation where AI optimizes the CTA for you as it becomes smarter over time.
Full Explanation
The call to action feature is a key part of ad design that guides potential customers toward a specific next step. You have the option to manually select a CTA such as ‘learn more’ or ‘get quote’ depending on the goal of your ad. Alternatively, you can leave the call to action selection on automated mode. This automation leverages AI technology that continually improves, making it advantageous to allow the system to determine the best CTA for your audience and context.
Step-by-Step Breakdown
- Decide the objective of your ad—whether you want users to gain more information or to request a quote.
- If you prefer direct control, select a CTAsuch as ‘learn more’ or ‘get quote’ that matches your objective.
- If you want to benefit from AI optimization, leave the CTA setting on automation.
- Allow the AI to analyze user interactions and adjust the call to action accordingly over time.
Real Examples
In practice, selecting a CTA like ‘learn more’ directs users to additional information about your product or service. Choosing ‘get quote’ encourages potential customers to request pricing information. When left on automated mode, the AI decides which call to action will most effectively engage your target audience.
Common Mistakes
- Failing to choose a clear call to action can reduce the effectiveness of the ad.
- Ignoring the benefits of automation by always manually setting the CTA might limit ad performance improvements.
- Not considering the evolving AI capabilities that can optimize CTAs based on user behavior.

Can I change the CTA after the ad is live?
You can typically adjust the CTA setting; leaving it on automated mode will allow AI to continuously update it as needed.
