Which campaigns should you grow and which should you stop?
Each campaign gets judged inside its own platform. A Meta campaign can look weak on its own and still drive 40% of your Google conversions. You cannot see that from inside Meta.

How Meta Ads and Slack records line up
Meta Ads and Slack share no customer or visit identifier. askotter puts them on one timeline instead, so a change in Meta ad clicks can be read against what Slack recorded in the same hours.
What campaign optimization uses from each
Campaign optimization needs cost on one side and outcome on the other.
From Meta Ads that means spend by campaign, ad set and creative. From Slack it means campaign launch messages.
These two tools hold no shared customer identifier, so per-customer answers need a third connected tool that each side can match, such as GA4 or your CRM. Daily totals work with these two alone.
Slack is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
Meta Ads on its own
Meta sees who saw and clicked an ad. It cannot see a sale its pixel missed, and lead-form contacts stop being visible to it once they leave Facebook or Instagram.
Timing. Meta reports conversions under its own attribution setting, seven days after a click and one day after a view by default.
Access. The Meta Marketing API with read access to the ad account.
Slack on its own
Slack records what the team said about the business and when. Sales, traffic and spend live in other tools.
Timing. Slack timestamps every message, which makes it a record of when the team noticed and decided things.
Access. A Slack app installed to the channels you choose.
