Building Lookalike Audiences (LLAs)

How to build LLAs from your top-performing Slopeside audiences for expanded reach.

🎯 Purpose

Leverage your best-performing Slopeside audiences to reach more of the right people with Meta’s Lookalike modeling.

💡 Why It Works

Because Slopeside’s audiences are already filtered for verified behavioral intent, they make ideal seed audiences for Meta’s Lookalike engine — improving match quality and predictability.

🪜 Step-by-Step Guide

  1. In Meta Ads Manager, go to Audiences → Create Audience → Lookalike Audience.
  1. Choose your top-performing Slopeside Audience as the source.
  1. Select your region (start with the same country or region as your original campaign).
  1. Choose audience size: start with 1%–4% to maintain precision.
  1. Save and activate.

Pro Tip: Run your new LLA audience alongside your Slopeside audience — not as a replacement. This helps Meta learn faster while maintaining performance consistency.
