FB or Amazon Ads?

First, I want to thank y'all for being open to such newb questions. I've been published since 2011 (publisher) but indie since May, and there's so much to marketing I don't know. I'm embarrassed to post to the FB groups. lol

My question today is FB ads or Amazon ads to start with?

I have limited money. My indie novella series is 3 books published, one more to write and release this year and the series is complete, and they're in KU. I've never done ads & I don't know how. I am making low 3 figures on the indie series (this is a new sub-genre from my publisher books), and I assume (hope) it's due to discoverability. I only have 20ish ppl on my NL and 2 of them are new-to-me from my back matter. The rest are from my publisher books. (Does that make sense? lol)

I did a Freebooksy back in July, on book 1, and had 4K downloads but sell through hasn't been a trickle. I may have screwed up. :) I took book 1 out of KU the beginning of August, but it's back in now. Long story. Don't ask. ;)

The plan is to learn one of the systems to start, do some low cost ads for Oct to see if I can build some traction, and then go from there.

Would you start with FB or Amz?

And thank you! :)
