The Easiest Way to Create Instagram Ads in Minutes (Seriously)
Creating effective Instagram ads doesn't have to be complicated or expensive. In fact, anyone can do it—and get great results. I’ll share some of my own stats below to show you just how easy and powerful this can be.
Step 1: Download an Editing App
Start by downloading an app like Videoleap. There are plenty of others out there that do similar things, so go with whatever you're comfortable with. Most of them have the same basic features.
Step 2: Use a Pre-Made Template
This is where the magic happens. These apps come loaded with slick, pre-designed templates. Choose a photo-based template that fits the vibe you’re going for.
Step 3: Add Your Photos, Music & Text
Drop in some eye-catching photos from your music school—action shots, smiling kids, cool classroom moments—then layer in a soundtrack and some bold, clear text.
That’s it. Seriously.
You’re done. It might feel a little weird writing a how-to guide that’s this short and simple, but here’s the truth: almost no music schools are doing this. I keep seeing the same generic posts with the same low engagement. You can stand out—and it's not hard.
Here’s my most recent ad
Real Results from One of My Recent Ads
Here are some actual screenshots from a recent ad campaign I ran:
Ad Spend: $35
Duration: 7 days
Website Visits: 57
Cost Per Click: $0.74
Landing Page: A specific program page on my site (targeted for Kidzrock classes)
Let’s break that down: if just one student signs up at $179/month, even after factoring in expenses, I’m clearing at least $50 in profit. And that’s just from one conversion.
Most of my classes already have fixed costs covered, so new sign-ups are almost entirely profit. This strategy works.
If you want an ultra-simple way to generate leads, try this method. You’ll be surprised how far $35 can go.
