How Facebook Custom Audiences works

In order to use Facebook Custom Audiences, you’ll need a reliable source of customer data. You’ll first need to create a list of either email addresses or phone numbers and upload it to the Audiences tab in the Ads Manager. That typically will be a list of customers that match certain characteristics or have performed specific actions on your website or app. From there, you can use that audiences in multiple ways, including targeting messages them, excluding them from campaigns, or generating lookalike audiences to try and find new users like them. You’ll need to go through this time consuming process of pulling a list and uploading it to Facebook every time you want to refresh the audience.
