Before Christ, obviously they didn't say for example "We are in the year 10 before Christ". They used other reference points for the calendars, for example, year so-and-so after a certain emperor.

Many didn't - or counted years from the reign of some king, or counted months as years (as in The Bible).

How did people count dates before ad.?

Different people used different systems. The Romans, for example, said The first year of Vespasian to refer to the first year when Vespasian was the emperor. Or they just used their own calender, like the Korean calender started long before the AD/BC calender, so they used that. Before the Koreans had a calender, they didn't record dates at all. Not many calenders have a before and after, like the AD/BC one.
