#377: The Best Ad Platforms for Freelancers (Ranked & Explained)

If you think that running paid ads for your freelance business is a complete and total waste of time and money, with no chance of ever getting you clients… Don’t bother reading any further. I get why many freelancers believe this - especially if you’ve tried to run ads in the past and been burned with low-quality leads, high costs, and NOTHING to show for it. It can be easy to conclude that “paid ads just don’t work.” So here’s a fun fact: Google and Meta made $424 BILLION from ad revenue in 2024. That’s $48.5 million an hour. $808,000 per MINUTE. These platforms are printing money because they work. So the question isn’t whether paid ads generate results… It’s whether you know how to use them properly. That $808k a minute? It’s coming from businesses who figured out how to make the math work (and that includes my business). Most freelancers are burning money on the wrong platforms with the wrong strategy. We’re here to fix that. We broke it all down in this week’s episode: Meta vs. LinkedIn vs. YouTube vs. Google. Which one’s best? Which ones to avoid? And how to know if ads make sense for your business. Joining me is Dennis Schneider, one of our coaches who’s spent over $15 million on ads (not a typo). He’s also the person running our ads right now. By the end of this one, you’ll know: The exact platform we use to bring in thousands of leads every single month Why some ad platforms are a total waste for freelancers And 4 specific situations where you should NOT run ads For full show notes, visit https://6figurecreative.com/377
