Campaign Level
The campaign generally defines the objective and high-level budget/optimization approach depending on the current Meta setup.
Ad Set Level
Ad sets can control audience, placements, schedule and budget in structures where those controls apply.
Ad Level
Ads contain the creative and messaging. Multiple variations can help identify which concepts resonate.
Avoid Excessive Fragmentation
Too many tiny audiences and ad sets can split data and make learning harder, especially for small budgets.
Example
A local lead-generation account might use one core prospecting campaign with a small number of meaningful audience approaches plus a retargeting structure if enough traffic exists.
Testing
Test one meaningful variable at a time where practical: hook, offer, audience angle or landing page.
Optimization
Consolidate when data is thin and separate when there is a genuine strategic reason. Structure should serve the business goal.

Connect channel metrics to qualified leads, customers and revenue where reliable measurement is available.
