# Strategies: Paid Ads Guides paid ads strategy: when to use paid acquisition, channel selection, budget allocation, ad-to-landing-page alignment, and cross-platform best practices. Paid ads (Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, Reddit, TikTok, etc.) deliver immediate reach and targeting; use when PMF is validated and budget allows. **When invoking**: On **first use**, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On **subsequent use** or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output. **Platform-specific execution**: Web: **google-ads**, **meta-ads**, **linkedin-ads**, **reddit-ads**, **tiktok-ads**. App: **app-ads**. TV/Streaming: **ctv-ads**. ## Before Starting **Check for project context first:** If `.agents/project-context.md` or `.claude/project-context.md` exists, read it before asking questions. Gather this context (ask if not provided): | Area | Questions | |------|-----------| | **Goals** | Primary objective? (Awareness, traffic, leads, sales, app installs) Target CPA/ROAS? Monthly budget? Constraints? | | **Product & offer** | What are you promoting? Landing page URL? What makes it compelling? | | **Aud

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add kostja94/marketing-skills --skill paid-ads --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From kostja94/marketing-skills, a repository with 848 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
