While waiting for the confirmation message, you may also want to review any integrations or connected services that could be affected by the deletion of your Ads Manager account. For instance, if you use services like SaveMyLeads to automate data transfer between Facebook Ads and other platforms, make sure to adjust or halt these integrations accordingly. SaveMyLeads can help you manage and streamline your marketing processes by ensuring that all your leads are correctly routed, even if you are in the process of deleting your Ads Manager account.
