Welcome to Stryde Growth 👋

This page is everything we need to launch your ads and review funnel. Set aside 30–45 minutes and do it on a computer if you can (the Meta steps are much easier there). Your answers save on this device as you go, so you can come back and finish later.

1Your business: services, area, customers
2Your ads: prices, deals and proof
3Your Google link: connects your review funnel
4Photos & videos: we build your ads from these
5Meta setup: your ad account + access for us

When you submit, we get to work. Your ads and review funnel go live within 48 hours.

🏠 Your business

So we can reach you, and let you know when your ads go live.

By checking this, you agree to get automated texts from Stryde Growth about new leads (about 1–10 a day). Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out, HELP for help. Privacy Policy · Terms

For updates and your confirmation.

Unhappy customers' feedback comes here privately.

If you have one.

Usually your most profitable job. The ads focus on this.

Roughly what that job pays, e.g. $8,000.

Homeowners or commercial, type of property, anything that makes a great job.

Your home base city and how many miles you'll travel, e.g. "Newark, NJ + 25 miles".

The areas you'd love more jobs in. Anywhere in your radius? Type anywhere.

What you run today (website, flyers…). None? Type none.

None? Type none.

Warranties, satisfaction guarantees, price matching. None? Type none.

e.g. a free inspection, free haul-away, an extra year of warranty. Strong offers make strong ads.

We recommend $30/day to start, but type in whatever amount you want. It's paid straight to Meta from your card, not to us.

Are you comfortable recording short videos of yourself or your crew if we send you scripts?

Ads with the owner or crew on camera usually get the best results.

💲 Help us make your ads

Your ads will use these exact numbers, so only put what's true and what you'll honor.

A range is fine, e.g. "$250 first visit" or "$8,000–12,000 for a full roof".

A lower first-visit price, % off, $0 down, a free inspection… We show it next to your normal price. Type none if you don't want a deal.

e.g. "Tree removal starting at $999" or "Carpet cleaning from $56 a room". Type none if every job is quoted.

e.g. "only 10 a month" or "ends Nov 30". We only say "limited spots" if it's true.

A rough number is fine, e.g. "500+ roofs".

e.g. family owned, the owner is on every job, lower prices.

You and any crew, e.g. "Mike (owner) and his son Jake".

⭐ Your Google review link

Your review funnel sends happy customers (4–5 stars) straight to your Google reviews page. To do that, we need the link to your Google listing. It takes about 2 minutes.

Method A (best): your "Ask for reviews" link

This link opens the review box directly. It looks like g.page/r/...../review. You need to be signed in to the Google account that manages your business listing.

  1. Open google.com and make sure you're signed in (your profile picture shows in the top-right corner) with the Google account that owns your business listing.
  2. In the search bar, type my business and press Enter. Your business panel shows up at the top.
    Doesn't show? Search your exact business name + town instead.
  3. Click Ask for reviews (sometimes shown as Get more reviews or a ⭐ icon with "Read reviews").
  4. A box pops up with your review link. Click Copy link.
  5. Paste it in the box below.
Method B: can't get into your Business Profile? Use a Maps share link
  1. Open Google Maps (website or app).
  2. Search your exact business name and tap/click your listing.
  3. Click Share (it's a button under your business name, or in the ⋮ menu on phones).
  4. Click Copy link. It looks like maps.app.goo.gl/.....
  5. Paste it below. We'll turn it into your review link.

🔑 No "Ask for reviews" button? That usually means you're signed in to the wrong Google account. Check which account manages the listing at business.google.com.

We'll find your listing and set it up for you.

📸 Your photos & videos

Your ads get built from these. Raw phone footage from real jobs works better than polished stuff, so don't overthink it. More is better. Send everything you've got.

🎥 Short clips on job sites

or drag them here. Any size, any amount. You can add more after.

📘 Set up Meta (Facebook & Instagram)

Your ads run from your own Meta ad account, so you own everything and ad spend goes straight from your card to Meta. You'll create it, then give us access to run it. Follow the 6 steps below and check each one off.

💡 Already have a Business Manager, ad account or page? Check off whatever's already done and make sure Step 6 is finished. All 6 boxes need a check before you can submit. Tap any screenshot to see it full size. Screenshots may look slightly different from yours. Meta moves buttons around often, but the menu names stay the same.

Step 1 · Go to Meta Business

On a computer, open business.facebook.com in a new tab. Keep this page open so you can follow along.

Step 2 · Create your Business Manager

Your Business Manager (Meta now calls it a "business portfolio") holds your page, Instagram and ad account in one place. Already have one? Skip to Step 3.

Meta business login screen
1. Click Log in with Facebook. Use the personal Facebook account that manages your business page.
Facebook log in form
2. Log in (or create a Facebook account if you don't have one).
Create an account button
3. Click Create an account.
Create your business portfolio form
4. Enter your business name (exactly how customers know you), your name, and an email you actually check, then click Submit. Meta will email you a link to verify it. Click it.
Business portfolio dropdown
5. Back in Meta Business, open the dropdown at the top-left and pick your new business portfolio (not your personal account). Tip: bookmark business.facebook.com/latest/settings. It's the settings page used in the next steps.
Step 3 · Connect your Facebook page & Instagram

Your ads show up as coming from your Facebook page and Instagram, so both need to be inside your Business Manager.

Settings, Accounts, Pages, Add
Facebook page: in Settings click Accounts → Pages → + Add. Choose Add an existing Facebook Page if you have one, or Create a new Facebook Page if you don't.
Settings, Accounts, Instagram accounts, Add
Instagram: click Accounts → Instagram accounts → + Add and log in to your business Instagram. No Instagram? That's fine, skip this part.
Step 4 · Create your ad account + add your card

This is where your ad spend is charged. Meta bills your card directly. That money never goes through us.

⚠️ The screenshots below were taken in Canada. You should pick United States, US Dollar (USD), and your own time zone (e.g. America/New_York for Eastern). Currency can't be changed later.

Accounts, Ad accounts, Add, Create a new ad account
1. Click Accounts → Ad accounts → + Add → Create a new ad account.
Ad account name, time zone and currency
2. Name it after your business (nobody else sees this name). Set your time zone and USD. Click Next.
My business option
3. Choose My business → Next.
Agree to terms and create ad account
4. Check the box to agree to Meta's terms → Create Ad Account.
Add payment info button
5. Click Add payment info.
Location, currency and time zone
6. Pick United States, US Dollar and your time zone → Next.
Payment method selection
7. Business/tax info is optional. Choose Debit or credit card → Next.
Card details form
8. Enter your card → Save. Use a card with room on it, since a declined card pauses your ads.
Step 5 · Lock down your account (2-step login)

Hacked ad accounts are common. Two-factor authentication stops that.

Security Centre two-factor authentication
In Settings, click Security Centre. Under Two-factor authentication, set "Who's required" to Everyone. If Facebook asks you to turn on 2-step login for your own account, follow its prompts (a text code or an authenticator app both work).
Step 6 · Give Stryde Growth access

Invite this email:

2. Under Full control, turn on Everything.

6. Scroll down and turn on Full control → Everything.

10. Check that it shows strydegrowthco@gmail.com → Send invitation. Done!
🔐 Why do you need this much access?
  • To build and run your ads: campaigns, lead forms, and your instant lead alerts all get set up inside your account.
  • To fix problems fast: if your card gets declined or Meta flags something, we can sort it out without your ads sitting paused for days.
  • A backup admin: Meta recommends at least two admins. If your personal Facebook ever gets locked or hacked, your business isn't stuck.
  • You're still the owner. Everything stays in your name, and you can change or remove our access any time.
