My $500 mistake with a 'growth hacking' webinar

I bought into a course promising secret social media tactics, but it was just repackaged info from free blogs. Lost a whole weekend and the cash. Anyone know a legit place to learn actual ad strategy?

Ugh, that's the worst. Honestly, a lot of those "secret" courses are just info you can find for free. For real ad strategy, I'd skip the gurus and look at the official learning hubs from the platforms themselves, like Meta Blueprint. Their stuff is dry but it's the actual system.

But like, is it that deep? I've seen people get solid results just messing around with the ad builder and seeing what sticks. Meta's stuff feels like reading a manual for a toaster. Sometimes the "guru" tips, even if they're basic, are just easier to digest and actually get you to try something new.
