Process Flow
Animated overview of the full workflow
TL;DR
Audit your Snapchat account by reviewing: Snap Pixel and CAPI status, conversion event configuration, account structure (consolidated ad sets), audience strategy (Lifestyle Categories, custom audiences, lookalikes), creative performance (swipe-up rate, completion rate, creative age), bidding efficiency, frequency indicators, landing page mobile experience, and ROAS trends. Flag ad sets with fewer than 50 weekly conversions as data-limited. Refresh creatives older than 14 days.
