@EcomSapo Last time I did this it spent the entire month's budget in 2 hours.

If you’re struggling with Meta overspending… Try this before you donate more money to Zuck. > Switch your CBO from daily to lifetime budget > Test cost controls (cost caps / bid caps) Or… Keep funding Zuckberg’s vacations.

@MrVisma How’d you get it unbanned?

UPDATE: Finally unbanned. Grateful 🙏

@EcomSapo So accurate lmao

Dropshippers watching deepfake ads scale while all their ad accounts get nuked by Meta.

@EcomSapo @allanz0rd Until fb inevitably glitches and spends all the budget with 2 conversions. Do NOT do this if u are starting out.

There’s a wave of Brazilian affiliates printing with bid caps right now… Mostly thanks to @allanz0rd who opened their eyes to this strategy. And yet, most people are sleeping on it. If you want to sip margaritas all day… And not babysit Ads Manager… This is the play. Instead of scaling $1 adset campaigns… They do this: → One CBO → 100+ creatives inside → Inflated budget ($100k–$500k/day) → Low bid cap That’s it. And guess what? You’re basically testing new ads for free. → If it doesn’t spend → it’s dead → If it spends → it’s a winner BONUS: If you already know your best-performing hours… Test this with lifetime budgets + ad set scheduling.

@PhilKiel Ain't no such workaround

I had a call this week with a supplement brand. Endocrine disruptors messaging, testosterone claims. CPMs at $130 and climbing. The strange part: they'd be in a better position if Meta had officially flagged them with the Health and Wellness tag. Because when you get flagged, you can use a workaround that brings CPMs back down. We're running a GLP-1 account, vial and needle in the creative, at $24 CPMs using it. But if you're in the grey zone? Being penalised without being restricted is the worst of both worlds. You pay the premium with no clear direction that you need a workaround.

@StefanGeorgi Would it be smart to invest in a GLP1 biz now? fda.gov/drugs/drug-ale…

BTW for all the people seeing Medvi and wanting to go ham in the GLP-1/telemed space now...If you want to buy the minority stake I have in a telemed business, feel free to hit me up. 19.5% Stake. Rev: $20MM Y1, $32MM Y2, $50MM+ Runrate Y3. Completely bootstrapped. No warning letters or lawsuits because we've run it extremely compliantly. Industry leading retention numbers. We could have done a lot more revenue but we've never worked with affiliates due to risk profile. That's now changing somewhat because my partners want to do more rev...and if you were super inspired by Medvi then that's probably exciting to you. Business has an incredible team though, extremely well run, professional management team, and so on. Very few employees (similar to Medvi) but lots of contractors and agencies who we have deep relationships with and who act as employees in a lot of ways. In fact, I haven't been involved in day to day in 2026 - and the company is growing. That's also one of the reasons I'd be open to selling, because I'm more interested in businesses I actually run. And I'd part with my stake for probably 1/2 of what the business is valued at because, personally, I'm super over telemed and GLP-1s.... Plus I don't really want to go the affiliate route but my partners do. So if you've got a better risk tolerance than me - HMU. P.S. There are four partners in the biz in total, and probably some of the others would be interested in selling their stake too.

@basedbrickpush1 @JCAvlas_jr Its literally a 15 metre walk.

@JCAvlas_jr imagine needing people to walk for miles because your taxi drivers are scammers

First time I visited Romania (couple years ago) I tried to get an Uber. Found out you can't get an Uber at the airport. So I'm forced to take a regular taxi to my hotel. Takes about 15 minutes. We arrive, taxi driver turns around and says: "600" I do some quick math and figure out that he's charging me $135. Tell him: "bro, come onnnnn now" I was fully expecting a scam. This is Romania and I'm in a taxi. I get it. But the sheer size of the scam was just too much. Felt like a Somalian daycare sized scam. Anyway, when he notices me pushing back he immediately loses the ability to speak any English. Starts muttering and mumbling gibberish instead. Ended up paying him 200lei. Still a retarded price. His English suddenly returned after he took the money. Romanian cab drivers are built different.

@gioblaze0069 Seems worth it to me. Got tix to the NL and IT shows. x.com/Kurrco/status/…

@adv_ceo Insane starting stats lol.

Aff Marketing Side Quest 35 days ago I started to seriously play around in the aff space (still running our own eCom, so it was just a side thing). Team was literally for the most part myself and my right-hand person (we had some help from our creative team but not too much). Feels like I still got it as a media buyer myself. What we have done: - Heavy manual media buying - Heavy, heavy, heavy ADV/funnel testing/copywriting - Nearly 100% static images/slideshow What we have been running: - All WH only (no Casino, Dating or whatever, I don't even know how to run that) - eCom offers (mostly bigger brands where I know the owner personally with a CPA deal) - CPL offers (insurances, loans) - Digital CPA offers (digistore shit) I still have absolutely no idea what we are doing here. We have no biz dev, no media buyers besides me, no devs, so please don't ask me in DMs how to get started with it. I don't even know! The only reason I think it worked out OK for us is because the only thing we are good at is running ads and landing pages/advertorials, everything else we suck at. So by finding a biz model that only focuses on that, it somehow worked out. Take it as inspiration: if you are doing something right now that isn't working out, maybe you are just in the wrong biz model. Check what your actual skills are and go all in on them.

@diabyismael @brandonkuipers @Meta @nicolamen Are you confusing profiles with ad accounts?

@dragoshsd0 @brandonkuipers @Meta @nicolamen Switch to agency accounts! Skip these issues

Fell victim to the @Meta ban wave last week. Lost my appeal, and my account - which I've had since 2008 - is gone forever. Over $30M spent since 2012. Done roundtables with @nicolamen. Given talks at Ad Rep training. Featured in Meta case studies. Interviewed on several client panels. And I still can't get a single human to review my account.

Bully is actually pretty good. So unexpected given the horrible rollout.

@mtracey @elonmusk He had time to comment on the Romanian elections but not this 😂

Does @elonmusk support the Iran War? He seems to weigh in on everything other than this

@herrmanndigital Seems its always affecting cost/bid caps and lifetime budgets?

Meta rarely, if ever, sends comms in a fast enough manner for bugs like last night. Today please demand them too. Some businesses are waking up to $30-40k in overspending from what I'm hearing. That's a significant amount of $ that very well could stall payroll this week. The delivery issues on Meta every 8-10 days is getting realllllllly old. I hate talking about it and I wish there was less chaos on this platform. However, it won't change. There just has to be a better way to handle this.

@hamptonism Is it mandatory to be homeless?

do everything in your power to move to this city.

@eCom_Amin Very naive to assume they will offer credit to low spend accounts. It will probably be some criteria like min 10k lifetime spend, min 500/day, etc.

@TrafficBrokerX They didn't refund anyone, told u to use ur ticket next year or GTFO.

@dragoshsd0 What happened? I wasn’t impacted I don’t remember

Should Affiliate World keep the money & transfer to the next event or should they just refund peoples $? Nobody cares about Terms of Service Anytime a company starts an email like this with something like “famigilia” you know they aren’t giving you your $ back
