# Find leads in the Facebook Ad Library

> A business running ads has a budget and a goal. The Ad Library shows you who they are and what they want.

## What the Ad Library is

Meta publishes every active ad running on Facebook and Instagram in a public Ad Library, searchable by keyword and country. It's meant for transparency — and it's a goldmine for anyone selling marketing services.

## Why advertisers are great leads

- They already spend money on growth.
- Their ads tell you their offer, audience and creative style.
- Ad start dates show how long creatives have run — a clue to creative fatigue.

## Collect advertisers in bulk

GetClient's Facebook Ad Library scraper searches by keyword and country, groups ads by advertiser, and returns:

- page name, category, followers and verified status
- **number of active ads**, first and latest ad start dates
- the Ad Library link to see their ads
- **website and email**, plus Instagram

## Filter

- **2+ active ads** — consistent spenders
- **Latest ad started this month** — actively testing
- **Has website and email** — ready for outreach

## Pitch with their ads

> "Hi Alex — saw Brightleaf has been running the same three video ads since March. Creative fatigue normally sets in after 4–6 weeks; we make fresh UGC-style variations. Want two free concepts?"

## Who uses this

Creative and UGC agencies, media buyers, CRO and landing-page specialists, email-marketing agencies, and SaaS tools for advertisers. See also [finding e-commerce brands that advertise](https://getclient.pro/blog/find-ecommerce-brands-advertising).

## What the ads tell you

- **Offer:** discount, free trial, consultation — what the business is pushing.
- **Audience:** language, imagery and product show who they target.
- **Maturity:** many variations means a team testing; one old ad means nobody is watching.
- **Landing page:** where clicks go — and whether it's any good.

Use one of these in your first line. It shows you looked at their actual marketing.

## Local businesses in the Ad Library

It isn't only e-commerce. Roofers, dentists, gyms, med spas and real estate agents advertise too. Combine Ad Library leads with Google Maps data for local niches: active ads plus weak reviews or a slow website is a strong pitch.

## Respect what the data is

The Ad Library is a transparency tool. Use what it shows to make relevant offers; don't misrepresent yourself or copy a business's creative.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does GetClient show how much a business spends on ads?

No — Meta only publishes spend for certain ad categories. You get the number of active ads, start dates and other public details, which are good signals of activity.

### Which countries can I search?

You can search by country, the same way the Ad Library works.
