This related media really needs to go away it's annoying every single ad you have to take off 8 related media.

@IstvanicMarin Glad this trend is already sunsetting It's a secondary kpi and can be used to reference when triangulating on other metrics but it's not a north star metric.

I don't get all this CPMr hype People are making it more important than CPA It's basically FREQUENCY Is it important? Yes Will you let ad with higher CPA and lower frequency active a bit longer? Yes, because it's doing TOF That's all you need to know

Rebuilt an ad account on Friday. Saturday: 3rd highest revenue day ever. Sunday: Highest revenue day ever. Moved from: - Creative Testing campaigns - Bunch of auto-bidding - No value optimization To: - 100% manual bids - Ad sets separated by economic unit/product category with bids relative to AOVs - No separate creative testing Exact same creative. "Media buying is dead" is one of the biggest myths in ecommerce.

Everytime with claude code when i prompt with shopify cli and the toolkit a localhost pops up almost like it proxies and reauthenticates each time, seems like their own security rules require them to create an ad hoc workaround to get this to work for vibers.

$60k–$150k/month offers are using visuals like this not ugc not influencers not expert talking heads just animated AI “problems” living on the scalp inflamed follicles hair stress tension turned into characters you see the issue instantly no explanation needed that’s why people stop scrolling it’s weird… but instantly clear each clip follows the same flow show the problem visualize the cause relief or removal same animation style, different angles each time hair loss, irritation, buildup, stress one concept → dozens of variations every week education first, product second that’s how these pages scale rt + comment “skinmap” and i’ll send the breakdown (follow for dm)

$65k+/month ad accounts are quietly shifting to animated objects. Here’s why. Not mascots. Not cartoons. Just products acting like characters in short-form videos. - A lemon reacting to heat - An onion getting angry - A leaf calmly floating in water It feels like content, not an ad. That’s the advantage. AI generates the characters, scenes, and variations. One idea → hundreds of executions. No filming. No creators. No scheduling. When one works, you scale it. RT + comment “OBJECT” and I’ll DM the setup (must be following)

1 month in Hit 6 figs which is nice but nothing impressive yet Also having some stock and product issues Good signs: First retention orders are already coming in, don't even have post-purchase flows set up 🤦‍♂️ That gave us conviction to lower our target nc roas and scale at break-even now Will wait for 3 months to get better LTV data before dropping efficiency targets further Also found a new offer that performs better, will continue testing this as this is one of the biggest levers Next up to scale further: - 10x on the angles, formats and lp’s that are already working - Add middle and bottom of funnel ads - missing this right now - Setup proper flows in Klaviyo - Launch Google Ads

10 days in Scaling steadily and first order profitable 2 angles performing really well Next up to scale further: - Make more creative around those 2 angles - Build dedicated LPs for each angle (right now all traffic goes to 1 generic LP) - Test different offers (gonna test 2 new offers against the current one - which is a simple bundle stack)

Meta media buyers: what's the best way to duplicate old ads into newer ad sets while retaining engagements? (aside from "use existing post") So far, the only thing I've seen is turning off Threads placement at the ad set level. There's gotta be a better solution.

I juxtapose this. If CBO is so superior, why are ad set minimums and soon to be ad minimums necessary as a feature?

@therahulissar @ToriiRowe @binghott Exactly, it just changes the fact that the hit rate is misleading when you are comparing accounts with a different volume of creatives when you stick to 1 ad account and you have consistent volume, it's still valuable

Just finished auditing an ad account burning $5k/day. They were running 4 campaigns and 3 of which were pure retargeting. The “prospecting” campaign? A CBO mashup of prospecting + retargeting… and guess which side got most of the spend. Yep, retargeting again. Same exact ads across every campaign. So the entire account was basically bidding against itself. Absolute chaos.

@BasedBiohacker Am i crazy or is mixing Caffeine + L-Theanine sounds dumb? like are they not the opposite? Caffeine is suppose to stimulate you and kind of stress your body while L-Theanine is suppose to relax you and remove stress lol.
