AI Facebook Ads for Local Businesses

Short video ads (10-15 seconds) featuring your most appetizing dishes with an animated text overlay showing the offer ("$5 lunch special — this week only") and your location. Use Facebook's Local Awareness objective to target people within 5-10 miles. Video ads drive 2-3x more foot traffic than static image ads for restaurants.

Most local businesses see meaningful results starting at $10-20/day ($300-600/month). Target a 5-15 mile radius around your location and run video ads promoting specific offers or events. At this budget level, you can expect to reach 10,000-30,000 local people per month — enough to drive measurable foot traffic increases.

Yes. Facebook's Store Traffic objective uses location data to show ads to people near your business and measure in-store visits. Pair this with video creative showing your storefront, products, or team. Businesses using video in local campaigns report 2-3x more direction requests and phone calls compared to image-only campaigns.

Run at least 1-2 fresh video ads per week. Local audiences are smaller than national ones, so ad fatigue sets in quickly. Rotate between daily specials, behind-the-scenes clips, customer highlights, and seasonal promotions. AdCreate lets you batch-create a full week of video ads in a single 30-minute session.
