Every business needs:

Here is a set of immediate goals:

1. Get a VPS
2. Select a vertical
3. Select a tracker
4. Select a couple of networks and get your approval

Welcome to the club Nick! I'm quite new here myself but been grinding on research and basic campaigns for the past few months. Enjoy your stay and soak up as much as you can around here, it's great people and great info. Cheers!

Thanks guys. I have a really noob question which I'm hoping you can help me out with.
So I've done some research, decided on a vertical and some angles and I've sources some images. My question is, what software do you use to convert images into banner ads?

I would research proper banner dimensions for your angle and use either Photoshop or, for the free option(which is a great option), GIMP. Good luck!

There are a massive amount of banner software's out there, some free, some pay, but I prefer PhotoShop. We PhotoShop junkies just find it so easy and flexible that we can't kick the habit!

There are some free banner maker tools available online, Though I would prefer Photoshop.
