Facebook has an ad-targeting tool called Facebook Custom Audience that allows you to upload a list of contacts to run Facebook ads on the contacts' feed. With LionDesk, you can sync contacts from your CRM database to your Facebook with just a few clicks. In order to sync your contact list, you must have a Facebook Business Ad Manager.
If you are running your ads from a Personal Ad page, you would need to switch your Personal Ad page to a Business Ad page. Follow the directions below to switch your accounts.
