# Getting started

## 1. Sign in

Go to [mangoads.com](https://mangoads.com) and sign in. New here? Create an account first — it takes a minute.

## 2. Choose the Advertiser workspace

At the bottom of the left sidebar you'll see a workspace selector. Make sure it shows **Advertiser Workspace**. If it shows *Channel owner*, click it and switch to **Advertiser**.

## 3. Get familiar with the layout

The advertiser workspace has three areas:

* **Dashboard** — KPIs and trends across all your campaigns.
* **Campaigns** — the list of your campaigns, and the **Add campaign** button.
* **Balance** — your funds, the **Deposit** button, and your transaction history.

## 4. Your first campaign in three moves

1. **Add funds.** Open **Balance → Deposit** and top up (minimum **$10**). See [Adding funds](/docs/for-advertisers/adding-funds.md).
2. **Create a campaign.** Open **Campaigns → Add campaign** and complete the three steps: ad content, budget & schedule, targeting. See [Creating a campaign](/docs/for-advertisers/creating-a-campaign.md).
3. **Watch results.** Once your ad clears moderation and starts delivering, track it on the **Dashboard**.
