How to Build a Copy-Cat Meta Audience

Connect with people following your peers and competitors. They’re already interested in what you’re sharing and, with the right tool, you can drop straight into their feeds.

Why it works

• Targets people who already follow or engage with competitors
• Cuts out wasted spend on cold, broad audiences
• Builds high-quality lookalikes later
  

How to do it (with LeadEnforce free trial)

1. Gather competitor links

• Copy 3–5 competitor Instagram/Facebook pages with big, engaged followings.

2. Create your account

• Sign up at LeadEnforce (7-day free trial).

3. Build your audience

• Click Create New Audience → choose Instagram or Facebook.
• Paste competitor links → let the tool analyse.

4. Connect to Ads Manager

• Link your Facebook ad account inside LeadEnforce.
• Your competitor followers upload directly into Ads Manager.

5. Launch ads

• Use this custom audience for awareness, lead gen, or conversion campaigns.
• Bonus: build lookalikes once it’s live.

6. Keep your audience

• After upload, remove LeadEnforce’s permissions so the data stays in Ads Manager even after the trial ends.
• N.B. Revoke permission only after all your LeadEnforce audiences are completely uploaded to your Facebook Ads Manager account.
• How to Remove Permission to Their CRM System: Go to your profile settings on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/settings
• Navigate to Business Integrations: Scroll down until you find Business Integrations. Click on it.
• Remove: Find the system we gave permission to, and click on the Remove button to revoke their access.
