Snapshot

One place to manage local store campaigns

Personalize started as an MVP and grew into a product for teams that need to create, review, and publish Facebook campaigns across many store locations.

Tools used

WordPress, PHP, ACF, ReactJS, custom plugins and tables, Facebook Marketing API, and AI copy support.

What it helps with

Central marketing teams can create campaigns once, adapt them for many stores, and avoid repetitive manual setup.

Challenge

Many stores, many ads, one team managing it all

The product had to help marketers create local campaign versions without manually rebuilding the same work for every store.

  • Campaigns needed local versions for many store locations.
  • Publishing had to work with Facebook API rules and limits.
  • Marketers needed screens that felt familiar if they already used Facebook Ads Manager.
  • The data grew beyond what made sense to store only in default WordPress meta fields.
Solution

A custom campaign tool built on WordPress

The Development Team combined WordPress, React, Facebook API work, AI copy support, and custom tables as the product grew.

Campaigns and Facebook API

  • Facebook Marketing API was used for campaigns, ads, creatives, audiences, and publishing.
  • Central templates helped create store-level campaign versions.
  • Preview and review screens were shaped around patterns marketers already knew.

Data, AI, and growth

  • Custom database tables were added where default WordPress meta fields became too limiting.
  • Data and sync work was adjusted as store and campaign volume grew.
  • AI helped suggest ad copy variations, while marketers still reviewed content before publishing.
Workflow

From one template to many store campaigns

The platform lets a central team start with one campaign idea and turn it into local versions for many stores.
