I’m at War with Big Social’s Dumb Robot. Here’s the Story…
I’m feuding with Facebook, and I’m not alone.
Earlier this month I recorded a few videos designed to promote my businesses — Story Power Marketing and Implementum. Here’s one of them (it’s all about how to transform your technology from a paralyzing migraine to a walk in the park)…
I hired a team of Facebook experts to create advertisements that include the videos and invite leads to meet with me.
Soon after the first ads went live, Big Social paused my account.
Said my ads violated its “policies.”
Which policies? Big Social won’t say.
Now my account is “under review.”
I asked my team what went wrong. They assure me my video should pass muster, but…
…a few weeks back, Big Social apparently rolled out a new AI-powered system to review videos and other content.
Word on the street: Their video review robot is…
…well…
…an overly aggressive, unintelligent ass!
The robot has rejected ads left and right. Big Social is shutting down accounts faster than restaurants crawling with rats.
(At least the health inspector points to the rat poop and says, “Clean that up!” Good luck getting answers from Big Social).
The leader of my Facebook advertising team said he’s active in an online forum for ad managers. “Many are complaining about this,” he told me.
Makes me wonder whether all of us legitimate, ethical businesspeople are getting caught in the web of political intrigue this election season.
Maybe Big Social can’t keep up with the flood of propaganda from domestic campaign operatives and meddling overseas intelligence officers.
So they unleash their overly aggressive, unintelligent ass of a robot to stem the tide…
…and honest, hard-working businesspeople like you and me get swept up in the chaos.
This annoys me, but…
…it won’t crush my business.
Tomorrow I’ll tell you how I survive and thrive, despite Big Social’s stupid robot.
Same Bat Time. Same Bat Channel.
