How Geo-Targeting Works
The AI automatically selects the targeting strategy based on your event type. No manual configuration needed.

Troubleshooting
Campaign not showing results

Low matched audience
Some niche race types or remote locations may have a smaller athlete pool. Consider broadening your race category or adding relevant keywords to your description.
