FBA Live Announced for December 2017!

I’m super pumped up to announce my upcoming live Facebook ads implementation workshop here in San Diego.  

FBA Live is going to start on Thursday evening, December 7th with an opening night happy hour and then we’ll go Friday and Saturday, December 8th and 9th.

As I mentioned this is an implementation workshop so we’ll be actually working on your Facebook ad campaigns together over the two days and we’ll be having conversations around strategy and areas for improvement for your campaigns.   

So much has changed with Facebook ads over the last two months, let alone this year, and my goal is to have you walking away with things set up the right way and improvements made. 

When you sign-up for the workshop, it will include access to or a large credit toward one of my training programs which you’ll need go through as much as you can prior to the event.

The reason is, I want this workshop to have the biggest impact for you, so it’s not going to be for complete beginners.  

If you’re already one of my students, you’re going to get a big-time discount off the cost of the event.

Again, so that we can have the biggest impact on working with you, spots are going to be limited.

I’m going to be finalizing the details over the next week but I’ve put together an early interest page so you can sign up to be the first to know when you can grab your spot.

And that link is rickmulready.com/earlyinterest.

I love doing these live workshops, hanging out with you for a few days and really moving your Facebook ads and business forward.
