The goalGet a new service in front of the right women

Face Retreat was launching Kobido, a Japanese face sculpting massage, with two options: a 30 minute Express Lift (AED 290) and a 50 minute Full Sculpt & Glow (AED 420).

The spa needed local awareness fast. The plan was to put a short video ad in front of women in Dubai who are likely to book premium facial treatments, and see how many people would watch and click.

  • Campaign type: Video Engagement
  • Ad set: Premium Dubai Women audience
  • Creative: a Reel-style video ad, with a matching Kobido offer poster
  • Spend: about AED 50 per day

What I didSet it up, watched it, and tuned the audience

Built the campaign for engagement

Chose a video engagement objective so Meta would show the ad to people most likely to watch and interact.

Targeted a premium local audience

Set up a Premium Dubai Women audience so the ad reached the people most likely to book a premium facial treatment.

Kept the offer simple

The ad showed two clear options with prices and one action: book your Kobido.

Checked delivery and cost every day

Watched reach, frequency, and cost per click to make sure the budget was spent evenly with no delivery problems.

Updated the audience after the first run

Applied audience changes and republished the campaign, using the first 5 days as a clean baseline to compare against.
