When money is tight, the mistake is over-building a retargeting machine before you have any traffic to retarget. Ben Heath walks through how to keep Meta ads lean on a small budget, letting the platform do the heavy lifting so you can stand up a light warm-audience layer without burning cash on complexity you do not need yet. He is one of the most-followed, plain-spoken Meta ads teachers, so the walkthrough stays practical rather than salesy. (We could not fully confirm the in-video sections via fetch, so treat it as a starting point and skim to the setup portions.)
