The agency established a successful track record of expanding seven-figure brands to eight figures. Their approach involves efficient campaign structures that form the foundation of ad accounts, enabling advanced strategies and scaling opportunities. Initially, they improved the ad spend efficiency from a 0.94 return, reducing losses on a significant budget; the solution included transitioning and optimizing existing campaigns rather than discarding them.
- 00:05:00 - 00:10:00
The agency executed a strategic overhaul, swapping old campaigns with new ones, and focusing on optimizing spending across campaigns. This led to an 86% increase in return on ad spend by cutting poor-performing investments and focusing on effective strategies. Efforts started by drastically reducing unnecessary ad expenditure while seeking optimal returns; through comparison, the new strategy improved cost per purchase and overall expenditures. This approach enabled the brand to navigate a financially challenging period efficiently and set the state for continued scaling and profitability.

Campaign structure within Facebook ads is crucial for successful business scaling, regardless of business size. A well-structured campaign consists of three componentsโcampaigns, ad sets, and ads. True value is unlocked by having a scalable structure that ensures optimal targeting and placement. A major insight shared is about the importance of structuring Facebook ads to yield compounding positive returns, often achieving an average increase of 43% in ROI within 90 days.

The advice given centers on managing creative outputs and focusing Facebook's algorithm on yielding the best results by honing audience specifics and simplifying targeting strategies. Users are cautioned against overly broad targeting and encouraged to use original, singular interest-based audiences. The structure also mandates regular reassessment and graduation of effective ad creatives into scaling campaigns, stressing consistency, simplicity, and predictability in ad management to maintain and increase ad spend efficiency.
- 00:20:00 - 00:28:00
Retention campaigns are pivotal in targeting existing customers separately from general prospects, ensuring they remain engaged, which is key to maximizing overall ad efficiency. Original audience targeting and regular audits of ad performance are fundamental parts of this strategy. Successful management of retention campaigns involves showcasing diverse creative content to keep the brand front-and-center and sustain customer interest. The entire system is aimed at long-term scaling, improving performance over time through strict adherence to proven structural principles.

How To Manage Your Money Like The 1%
- 00:00:00in just 30 days we increased this beauty
- 00:00:01Brand's return on ad spin by 86% by just
- 00:00:04making a few simple tweaks to Facebook
- 00:00:05ads and it all started with their
- 00:00:07campaign structure over the past 8 years
- 00:00:09I've set up campaign structures that
- 00:00:11have turned seven figure Brands into
- 00:00:12eight figure Brands multiple times and
- 00:00:14in this video I'm going to give you the
- 00:00:16exact campaign structure that I use
- 00:00:17across all the brands that we're trying
- 00:00:19to scale aggressively today this exact
- 00:00:22case study happened over the course of a
- 00:00:23year but this specific change in row has
- 00:00:25happened within a 30-day period we have
- 00:00:27old campaigns on the bottom three here
- 00:00:30and we have new campaigns on the top
- 00:00:32three here and what's crazy is that this
- 00:00:33exact structure almost every single time
- 00:00:36gets the most profitable results that
- 00:00:38you could possibly imagine now there's a
- 00:00:40lot of steps involved here but the
- 00:00:41structure itself is the foundation of
- 00:00:43your ad account this is literally what
- 00:00:45allows you to do all the more complex
- 00:00:47strategies and advanced systems within
- 00:00:49your ad account it's what allows you to
- 00:00:50graduate campaign it's what allows you
- 00:00:52to graduate ads it's what allows you to
- 00:00:54scale that structure is so important we
- 00:00:56all know it's the foundation it's like
- 00:00:57the home of the ad account when we took
- 00:00:59over the account there was a previous
- 00:01:00agency running this account and as you
- 00:01:02can see here previously they were
- 00:01:04driving a
- 00:01:050.94 return on ad spend and if you just
- 00:01:08take a look at the spend they were
- 00:01:09spending $94,000 at a loss so what we
- 00:01:12did was we made fundamental changes now
- 00:01:14when we come in and we take over ad
- 00:01:15accounts we don't just throw out the old
- 00:01:17campaigns right that's ridiculous
- 00:01:19there's still ways that we could salvage
- 00:01:20some old campaigns so what we like to do
- 00:01:22generally speaking is we like to
- 00:01:24transition things over we'd like to
- 00:01:25apply the best settings and then
- 00:01:26transition things to a better overall
- 00:01:28structure so this this period right here
- 00:01:30is a big swap from their campaigns to
- 00:01:33our campaigns and you can see that
- 00:01:34actually detailed in this section right
- 00:01:36here we can see all of their campaigns
- 00:01:37Dro by tremendous amounts overall spent
- 00:01:39in their primary prospecting campaigns
- 00:01:41dropping
- 00:01:42$444,000 5,000 in their retention based
- 00:01:45campaign $4,000 in their retargeting
- 00:01:46campaign and then all of our new
- 00:01:48campaigns are going up drastically in
- 00:01:50terms of percentage points what actually
- 00:01:52happens when we do this we see an 86.8
- 00:01:551% increase in return on ad spent across
- 00:01:57the board and this is in apples to
- 00:01:58apples 30 days versus 30 days comparison
- 00:02:01so we take this brand from literally
- 00:02:03losing money on $90,000 in ad spend we
- 00:02:05reduce the spend by about 35% so we come
- 00:02:08down from $94,000 to $91,000 in ad spend
- 00:02:11cuz we needed to like really cut the
- 00:02:13brakes quick stop the bleeding in this
- 00:02:15account really wanted to really focus on
- 00:02:17driving the most optimal return on ad
- 00:02:19spent and make this brand profitable
- 00:02:21instantly and that's exactly what we did
- 00:02:22so return on Adent jump from 0.94 to
- 00:02:251.75 and one of the bigger metrics for
- 00:02:28this brand is actually cost per purchase
- 00:02:30so in this case we dropped cost per
- 00:02:32purchase by
- 00:02:33$54 that is crazy right so this went
- 00:02:35from a brand that was previously
- 00:02:37acquiring a customer for
- 00:02:39$958 and after the changes that we made
- 00:02:41that I'm going to go through in this
- 00:02:42exact structure here we dropped this all
- 00:02:44the way down to
- 00:02:46$41.56 it's a 56% reduction in cost per
- 00:02:49purchase and as you can see through the
- 00:02:51purchase return on ad spend that's an
- 00:02:5386% increase in return on ad spend from
- 00:02:56completely unprofitable to very
- 00:02:58profitable and still able to scale what
- 00:03:00we did Beyond this what we did after
- 00:03:01these first few weeks of making drastic
- 00:03:03changes is we scaled this happened
- 00:03:05during a very turbulent time so instead
- 00:03:06of just saying hey we're going to Coast
- 00:03:08here we're going to stick with this 1.75
- 00:03:10this brand really took advantage of this
- 00:03:11scenario what they did was they said
- 00:03:13cool we found what we needed to do we
- 00:03:15fixed our settings we fixed our
- 00:03:16structure and now we're actually able to
- 00:03:18scale let's break down exactly what we
- 00:03:20did here and how we've done this over
- 00:03:22and over and over again for Brands to on
- 00:03:25average get a purchase return on ad
- 00:03:27spend increase of 43% now just just
- 00:03:29taking a step back if you know anything
- 00:03:31about Facebook ads you know that
- 00:03:32structure is the foundation you know it
- 00:03:34is so important you know that you can't
- 00:03:35create complex and different systems
- 00:03:37within an account until you have that
- 00:03:39important perfect structure in place so
- 00:03:41what even is a structure there's so many
- 00:03:43different ways you can run Facebook ads
- 00:03:44you've probably heard of things like
- 00:03:45everyone's running Advantage Plus these
- 00:03:47days you've probably seen people going
- 00:03:48super broad or maybe you've seen or in
- 00:03:50the past you've run accounts that are
- 00:03:51really really granular dozens of
- 00:03:53campaigns and dozens of adsets and
- 00:03:55you're tweaking things every single day
- 00:03:56the most important part of this is that
- 00:03:58this is a structure that is scalable and
- 00:04:00that works regardless of the size of
- 00:04:02your business so there's a few things
- 00:04:03you need to tweak based on how much
- 00:04:05you're spending but generally speaking
- 00:04:06everything I'm going to go through here
- 00:04:07applies if you're literally spending
- 00:04:09your first 23 $400 on Facebook or if
- 00:04:11you're spending 30 40 50 $100,000 on
- 00:04:14Facebook ads now every structure has
- 00:04:16three core components we have campaigns
- 00:04:18which is the actual foundation of the
- 00:04:19entire structure we have ad sets which
- 00:04:21are all our audiences and then we have
- 00:04:23ads the actual creative that we're
- 00:04:24delivering to the end user that's
- 00:04:26ultimately causing the conversion to
- 00:04:28happen so each of these places you
- 00:04:29unique role the most important starting
- 00:04:31at ads but second being ad sets and
- 00:04:33third being campaigns now here's the big
- 00:04:35caveat while ads are the most important
- 00:04:37part of your account if you have really
- 00:04:38really really great creative and it's
- 00:04:40run in a poor structure it will
- 00:04:42underperform an account that has
- 00:04:43mediocre creative in one of the best
- 00:04:46structures possible the point of the
- 00:04:47structure is to create a scalable
- 00:04:49predictable system that when you create
- 00:04:52new creative and you launch that new
- 00:04:53creative into your account you know that
- 00:04:55the best creative is going to the best
- 00:04:57audience not only to the right people
- 00:04:59but actually at the right time and at
- 00:05:01the right place but 99% of your
- 00:05:03competitors have completely forgotten
- 00:05:04about this everyone out there is running
- 00:05:06to the same broad audiences they're
- 00:05:07spending the same amount of money every
- 00:05:09single day of the week now it's our job
- 00:05:10to be really really specific so normally
- 00:05:12what we see is by just fixing the
- 00:05:14structure of your account you're going
- 00:05:16to see somewhere around a 10 to 30%
- 00:05:18increase in return on ad spend and then
- 00:05:19the compounding effect of doing this
- 00:05:21every single month and actually
- 00:05:23implementing the graduation process that
- 00:05:24we're going to get to you will then see
- 00:05:26an even further increase of return on ad
- 00:05:28spend where in our case in just 90 days
- 00:05:30you'll see a 43% on average this is not
- 00:05:33our worst definitely not our best but on
- 00:05:35average a 43% increase in return on has
- 00:05:37spend so if you think your account right
- 00:05:39now is a complete mess that's actually a
- 00:05:41good sign that means there's a ton of
- 00:05:42opportunity and you're definitely going
- 00:05:44to beat that 43% if you think your
- 00:05:45account is really well structured maybe
- 00:05:47you fall under that 43% but following
- 00:05:49this structure and implementing this is
- 00:05:51actually going to allow you to scale so
- 00:05:52not only is your Raz going to maintain
- 00:05:54or get better but your profit which is
- 00:05:56ultimately the most important thing that
- 00:05:58we have here acquiring your customers
- 00:05:59spending more driving more Revenue
- 00:06:01contribution margin driving up those are
- 00:06:03actually the most important things that
- 00:06:04we're working on here and ultimately
- 00:06:05that's what this structure is about is
- 00:06:06about scaling predictably and as
- 00:06:08efficiently as possible so the very
- 00:06:10first campaign that we're going to set
- 00:06:11up is going to be an Advantage Plus
- 00:06:13campaign so once you go into the actual
- 00:06:15ad account click create go to sales
- 00:06:17click continue and select Advantage Plus
- 00:06:19shopping campaign in terms of naming
- 00:06:20conventions I would generally recommend
- 00:06:22you name this A+ or ascore scale this is
- 00:06:26meant to be your number one primary
- 00:06:28scaling campaign and I'm going to show
- 00:06:29you exactly how that works and how we
- 00:06:31graduate ads into this campaign what you
- 00:06:33want to do is make sure you set this up
- 00:06:35as website and Shop select your proper
- 00:06:37pixel and make sure your attribution
- 00:06:39settings are set to 7-Day click and 1day
- 00:06:41view now we're going to optimize the ad
- 00:06:43account on a 7-Day click setting however
- 00:06:45we're going to allow Facebook to
- 00:06:46optimize to 7-Day click and one- day
- 00:06:48view the reason we're doing this is
- 00:06:49because we want as many signals as
- 00:06:50possible to feed this Facebook algorithm
- 00:06:53however when we make data driven
- 00:06:54decisions ourselves and we decide which
- 00:06:56ads to turn off we're going to always be
- 00:06:57doing that on a click basis terms of
- 00:06:59audience locations obviously make sure
- 00:07:01your audience locations are set properly
- 00:07:03and then when we're actually talking
- 00:07:04about reporting which is a super
- 00:07:06important caveat here make sure you have
- 00:07:08set your engaged audiences and your
- 00:07:10existing customers so you could actually
- 00:07:12tweak all these in your manage your
- 00:07:14advertising settings button right here
- 00:07:16so just click that and once you click
- 00:07:18that button you're actually going to be
- 00:07:19able to add engage audiences and
- 00:07:21existing customers right here for your
- 00:07:23engage audiences the easy recommendation
- 00:07:25here is 30-day site visitors and then
- 00:07:27definitely you want to have some sort of
- 00:07:28like engagers for a Facebook and
- 00:07:30Instagram this is not a silver bullet so
- 00:07:32don't stress if this isn't the exact
- 00:07:34setup that you might be seeing here if
- 00:07:35it's 30-day site visitors and Facebook
- 00:07:37and Instagram engagers you're in a good
- 00:07:39position for actual existing customers
- 00:07:41grab 180-day purchasers from your pixel
- 00:07:43and then get your CRM implemented make
- 00:07:45sure clavo or whatever you're using for
- 00:07:47your email list is fully implemented
- 00:07:49into your ad account and you're grabbing
- 00:07:50your entire customer list as an
- 00:07:52automated daily pull very important
- 00:07:54don't just upload your customer list
- 00:07:55from this random section you need to
- 00:07:57have an automated daily pull that pushes
- 00:07:59right into here once these are set up go
- 00:08:01down to your budget because this is your
- 00:08:02scaling campaign you're just setting
- 00:08:04this up this is only going to start at
- 00:08:06around 20% of your total budget the next
- 00:08:08thing we're going to do in most cases
- 00:08:09here is set our existing customer budget
- 00:08:11cap to 0% here what this is going to
- 00:08:14confirm is that there's never going to
- 00:08:15be existing customers hit on this
- 00:08:17Advantage Plus campaign because we're
- 00:08:18going to have a separate campaign where
- 00:08:20we specifically Target them with very
- 00:08:22specific ads so we're going to set this
- 00:08:23for zero we're going to set our daily
- 00:08:24budget to 20% of whatever our total
- 00:08:27budget is just for this example like
- 00:08:29going all the way through I'm just going
- 00:08:30to assume we have a $1,000 daily budget
- 00:08:32so our daily budget here is going to be
- 00:08:33200 bucks for Budget scheduling we can
- 00:08:35completely skip this and we can move
- 00:08:37down to the ad level itself so once you
- 00:08:40get into the ad level you'll notice
- 00:08:41Advantage Plus doesn't have any
- 00:08:43targeting so Advantage Plus is running
- 00:08:45broad it's running to the entire United
- 00:08:46States it's running to every demographic
- 00:08:48every cohort this is kind of a little
- 00:08:50Hidden Gem the only way you could
- 00:08:52actually tweak your settings for what's
- 00:08:53run in Advantage Plus is by going to
- 00:08:55your Advertiser settings on the left
- 00:08:57hand side here once you're in here you
- 00:08:58can go to account account controls and
- 00:09:00then you can tweak your audience
- 00:09:02controls and your placement controls so
- 00:09:04in many cases businesses that we work
- 00:09:06with can only serve in specific
- 00:09:07locations so you can type in countries
- 00:09:09here you can even type in exclusions on
- 00:09:11a state level so what we'll often do is
- 00:09:13we'll exclude certain States right so
- 00:09:15I'll give you an example one brand has a
- 00:09:16lot of retail facilities in New York
- 00:09:18that we work with we like to avoid New
- 00:09:20York advertising because they do it in a
- 00:09:22different way right so we literally just
- 00:09:24type in New York here and we could
- 00:09:25exclude New York and a radius or the
- 00:09:27whole city from our entire account
- 00:09:29second thing that's really really
- 00:09:31helpful is my business's advertisers age
- 00:09:33restricted goods or services now heads
- 00:09:35up if you do this you're probably going
- 00:09:36to get a little flag internally on the
- 00:09:39Facebook side so I would be a little
- 00:09:40careful on this side this is just
- 00:09:42honestly knowledge that just comes from
- 00:09:43being in this industry for a really
- 00:09:45really long time whenever you select
- 00:09:46something that says something like age
- 00:09:48restricted you're kind of giving
- 00:09:50Facebook a little hint of hey maybe
- 00:09:51heads up on who we serve this to so
- 00:09:53minimum age making sure it's set
- 00:09:55normally to 18 if you are a very age
- 00:09:57restricted product and yeah no problem
- 00:09:59set it to 21 set it to 23 whatever your
- 00:10:02specific audience is in most cases I
- 00:10:04would not tweak these settings because
- 00:10:06Advantage Plus is going to just take a
- 00:10:07few weeks and then ultimately figure out
- 00:10:09who your most valuable customers
- 00:10:11actually are okay so you're probably
- 00:10:12wondering what about creatives what do
- 00:10:14we put in this Advantage Plus campaign
- 00:10:15now here's the thing you're going to be
- 00:10:17putting your best creatives only in this
- 00:10:19Advantage Plus campaign how do you
- 00:10:20actually decide what creatives to put in
- 00:10:22your Advantage Plus campaign so what
- 00:10:23you're going to want to do is go into
- 00:10:25your primary prospecting campaign that
- 00:10:26currently exists now if you don't have
- 00:10:28your setup where you know your primary
- 00:10:30prospecting campaign and everything's
- 00:10:31kind of just mixed in together right now
- 00:10:33it's okay go to all of your ads and
- 00:10:35don't think twice about it once you go
- 00:10:36into all your ads go to your column set
- 00:10:38go to compare attribution settings and
- 00:10:40set everything to 7-Day click choose
- 00:10:42conversion account as all conversions
- 00:10:44click apply when you do this you're now
- 00:10:45going to see a difference between click
- 00:10:47conversions and view conversions all we
- 00:10:49care about when we're optimizing and
- 00:10:51deciding what the best ads are are the
- 00:10:52click based conversions the next thing
- 00:10:54you're going to do is sort by amount
- 00:10:56spent what we want to push into here is
- 00:10:58our top creative only when I say top
- 00:11:00creatives I generally mean the top 10%
- 00:11:02very strictly you might say wow there
- 00:11:04might only be three ads cool if it's
- 00:11:05three ads it's three ads they are proven
- 00:11:08winners now a top ad is a top spending
- 00:11:10ad and a top converting ad it is not a
- 00:11:13low spending ad with a boatload of high
- 00:11:15row as that's not what it is it's high
- 00:11:17spend High row as so when we're looking
- 00:11:19at this account right now I would sort
- 00:11:21by amount spent that you could see
- 00:11:22during this month that I'm looking at we
- 00:11:24spent exactly $78,000 and our average
- 00:11:26return on ad spend was 3.09 so this was
- 00:11:29a big month for this brand right we
- 00:11:30spent 78k we drove 240,000 in revenue
- 00:11:34and that's just for this specific adset
- 00:11:36on the whole account we spent a total of
- 00:11:38$117,000 to drive a total of
- 00:11:42$544,000 in Revenue now when we look at
- 00:11:44the actual ads I'm looking at the 7-Day
- 00:11:46click conversions that's what I want to
- 00:11:47optimize on so for our actual amount
- 00:11:50spent we're sorting here and then I'm
- 00:11:51going to go to the right I'm going to
- 00:11:52look at my return on ad spend when I
- 00:11:54look at my return on ad spend I'm
- 00:11:55looking at an average of 3.59 for my
- 00:11:577-Day click and then what I'm going to
- 00:11:59do is is try to take anything that's
- 00:12:00above this 3.59 and at the top tier of
- 00:12:03my spending right off the bat I can tell
- 00:12:06you that I see some winners here these
- 00:12:07three are the same creative that's an
- 00:12:09easy winner top spending High return on
- 00:12:11ad spend here's an example of one I
- 00:12:13would skip this is one where yes it has
- 00:12:15high spend but the return on ad spends
- 00:12:16about 10 to 15% under my average that's
- 00:12:19not something I would necessarily
- 00:12:20promote another example of a winner
- 00:12:21number one right we have just above our
- 00:12:23average return on ad spend but then
- 00:12:25check out the second variation of it at
- 00:12:27a 6.45 and we're talking about scale
- 00:12:29here we're talking about big spending
- 00:12:31ads here are some examples of ones that
- 00:12:33we don't care about this ad in
- 00:12:34particular spent $91 out of 7.5 return
- 00:12:37on ad spend now you might think holy
- 00:12:39crap 7.5 return on ad spend isn't that
- 00:12:41what we want isn't that what we want to
- 00:12:43duplicate yes but Facebook would promote
- 00:12:46this ad way more they would make this ad
- 00:12:48scale if it showed signals that we
- 00:12:50literally can't comprehend as
- 00:12:51advertisers as human beings it would
- 00:12:54scale this ad to the Moon if it could
- 00:12:55continue to drive a 7.5 return on ad
- 00:12:58spend something in the gorithm is
- 00:12:59indicating that this ad cannot scale
- 00:13:01this is what I call a Raz supportive ad
- 00:13:04this ad is great let it do its thing let
- 00:13:06it run but don't force your spend on it
- 00:13:08you don't want to force anything when it
- 00:13:10comes to Facebook ads you just want to
- 00:13:11feed this algorithm to the best of our
- 00:13:13ability right that's ultimately the goal
- 00:13:15of everything that we're setting up here
- 00:13:16so once you've determined what actual
- 00:13:18ads to put in here your top 10% you'll
- 00:13:20probably be in the range of like two
- 00:13:21three or four ads in your scale ASC
- 00:13:24campaign the next campaign that you're
- 00:13:25going to want to set up is a prospecting
- 00:13:27CBO campaign first you're going to click
- 00:13:29click sales click continue click manual
- 00:13:31sales campaign and then we're just going
- 00:13:33to name this best structure underscore
- 00:13:35prospecting uncore CBO prospecting is
- 00:13:38really focused on new customers and
- 00:13:40specifically the CBO portion of this
- 00:13:42means that we're allowing campaign
- 00:13:43budget optimization to be in place so we
- 00:13:46are setting our budget at the campaign
- 00:13:47level we're allowing Facebook to
- 00:13:49distribute our budget based on where
- 00:13:50it's most likely to drive the highest
- 00:13:52return on ad spend for us we're not
- 00:13:53worried that Facebook might distribute
- 00:13:55it in the wrong spot 1% of the time what
- 00:13:57we care more about is the 99 % of the
- 00:13:59time this algorithm is going to be right
- 00:14:01so therefore we benefit in the long run
- 00:14:03you're going to notice here it says
- 00:14:04Advantage campaign budget that is the
- 00:14:06renamed version of prospecting CBO or
- 00:14:08rather the renamed version of CBO for
- 00:14:10our campaign budget we said we were
- 00:14:12working with $1,000 this campaign is
- 00:14:14actually going to represent around 70%
- 00:14:16of the total budget so in this case it's
- 00:14:18going to represent $700 for our campaign
- 00:14:20bid strategy we are going to set this
- 00:14:22for highest volume or value now
- 00:14:24eventually we may change this to a cost
- 00:14:26per result goal but for now we're going
- 00:14:28to keep this at High volume or value
- 00:14:30moving down our engage list and our
- 00:14:31existing customers are still set then
- 00:14:33we're going to create our very first
- 00:14:34prospecting audience so our first
- 00:14:36prospecting audience I'm just going to
- 00:14:37name this
- 00:14:38interest1 and the goal of this is we
- 00:14:40just want to give Facebook one single
- 00:14:42interest this one single interest is
- 00:14:44literally just meant to serve as a
- 00:14:45foundation for us it's something that we
- 00:14:47think our customers are mostly
- 00:14:48interested in now here's the big change
- 00:14:51most of the time when everyone's
- 00:14:52creating interest they're going to go
- 00:14:53down here they're going to click
- 00:14:54Advantage Plus audience and they're
- 00:14:56going to type in a bunch of different
- 00:14:57brands a bunch of different things that
- 00:14:58people are interested in and what you
- 00:15:00might wind up with is something like a
- 00:15:02bunch of different parent groups or a
- 00:15:04bunch of different random interest
- 00:15:05people that are interested in current
- 00:15:06events you might just be typing in 20
- 00:15:08different things here now I'm here to
- 00:15:09tell you why that doesn't work you're
- 00:15:11basically just setting yourself up for a
- 00:15:12mega broad audience which is essentially
- 00:15:14doing nothing and you're limiting the
- 00:15:15algorithm from getting people that could
- 00:15:17potentially be just on the outskirts of
- 00:15:18those audiences that would actually be a
- 00:15:20better fit for you as opposed to some of
- 00:15:21these bigger Mega Brands so X out of all
- 00:15:24this and the big thing here we need to
- 00:15:25switch to original audience option this
- 00:15:27is crazy I'll face Facebook tells us
- 00:15:29this so right now if you use an original
- 00:15:32audience you're telling Facebook this is
- 00:15:33the audience please start using this
- 00:15:35audience and then after you tap out this
- 00:15:38audience go beyond it all right which is
- 00:15:39okay right it used to be a little bit
- 00:15:40more grandular but it's at least staying
- 00:15:42hey Facebook try here first and if you
- 00:15:44can't find what you need here then go
- 00:15:46beyond this audience find the outskirts
- 00:15:48of this audience Advantage Plus
- 00:15:49audiences are signals now very very
- 00:15:51different so everything we are giving it
- 00:15:53here is merely a suggestion it literally
- 00:15:56says it if you share an audience SU
- 00:15:59suggestion will prioritize audience
- 00:16:01mastering this profile before searching
- 00:16:03widely suggestion is the key word if you
- 00:16:05share an audience suggestion they are
- 00:16:08going to look at it they're going to say
- 00:16:10okay let's maybe start here but then
- 00:16:11let's expand switching to original
- 00:16:13audience options is very very very
- 00:16:15different here's the craziest part
- 00:16:17they're going to warn you oh you're
- 00:16:18going to get a 33% worse lower cost per
- 00:16:20result or a 33% worse Ras wouldn't you
- 00:16:23think that this would be data supported
- 00:16:25by thousands and thousands of
- 00:16:26advertisers and hundreds of millions of
- 00:16:28dollars because we know that thousands
- 00:16:29of advertisers join Facebook every
- 00:16:31single day but guess what based on the
- 00:16:33Facebook experiments they have run to 16
- 00:16:36advertisers I wish I can have a
- 00:16:38megaphone and just tell the world that
- 00:16:40Facebook is telling everyone to change
- 00:16:42everything about the way they run ads
- 00:16:44and everything about the way they think
- 00:16:45about audiences based on 16 advertisers
- 00:16:48that is absurd there's thousands of
- 00:16:50advertisers let's see how much their
- 00:16:52actual cost per result has change as a
- 00:16:54result of doing this and I know Facebook
- 00:16:56has that data so we are clicking user
- 00:16:57original audience because every test
- 00:16:59I've run it works better then we're
- 00:17:01going to set our audience and we're just
- 00:17:02going to select one single Interest
- 00:17:04really really critical we're going to
- 00:17:06find an interest on the right side I
- 00:17:07don't care what the interest is you
- 00:17:09decide what your interest is don't worry
- 00:17:11about the audience size make sure it's
- 00:17:12like over a couple hundred thousand
- 00:17:14really over a million is good just set
- 00:17:16it to one single interest and Let It
- 00:17:17Rock the reason you go one interest is
- 00:17:19because you actually know does this
- 00:17:21interest work yes or no if it doesn't
- 00:17:23work you can cut it if it works great
- 00:17:25keep it and create the second interest
- 00:17:27that's most similar to the one you just
- 00:17:28created when you stack interests you
- 00:17:30have no idea what actually works and
- 00:17:32what doesn't work right if you try 20
- 00:17:33different interests together and you say
- 00:17:34I think this is my customer but if it's
- 00:17:36not and it doesn't work it's never going
- 00:17:38to scale for you you're never going to
- 00:17:39actually be able to know via the data if
- 00:17:41it works for you single interests only
- 00:17:43the next thing you're going to want to
- 00:17:43do here is you want to create a fully
- 00:17:46broad audience but there is one big
- 00:17:48change so we're going to type in Broad
- 00:17:49as our adset name we're still setting
- 00:17:51website and Shop make sure you set your
- 00:17:52pixel properly 7day click one day view
- 00:17:55as usual we are not selecting Dynamic
- 00:17:57creative Dynamic creative is being Sun
- 00:17:59set most advertisers are going to have
- 00:18:00flexible creative now which we're
- 00:18:02definitely not using then as we scroll
- 00:18:04down and we go to the audience section
- 00:18:06again you might start in this kind of
- 00:18:08format where your audience controls are
- 00:18:10a little oddly separated and things look
- 00:18:12a little weird an Advantage Plus
- 00:18:13audience is set up it's a little
- 00:18:15different first off let's get rid of our
- 00:18:17interest targeting because that's not
- 00:18:18something we want to have in this
- 00:18:19campaign is a broad campaign you may be
- 00:18:21tempted right now to just click the
- 00:18:23publish button because this is a broad
- 00:18:24adset right here's the problem switch
- 00:18:26this to an original audience and then
- 00:18:27click publish seems like a negligible
- 00:18:30change right it seems like we just did
- 00:18:32nothing there because technically we're
- 00:18:34not telling Facebook anything about who
- 00:18:35we should be targeting we're not telling
- 00:18:37Facebook go for a certain age group or
- 00:18:39certain genders or anything so it's a
- 00:18:40100% broad audience however what we have
- 00:18:42seen is by selecting that off you get a
- 00:18:45slightly better result we get cheaper
- 00:18:46cpms get cheaper cost per clicks that's
- 00:18:48what we care about in terms of your
- 00:18:50placement so scrolling down to the
- 00:18:51bottom in terms of your placements use
- 00:18:53Advantage Plus placements in very rare
- 00:18:55cases it's okay to shut things down like
- 00:18:57stories and shopping feeds however in
- 00:18:5999% of cases we are using Advantage Plus
- 00:19:02placements they generally return at a
- 00:19:04higher return on out spent overall more
- 00:19:06revenue for the business and more spend
- 00:19:08we are not setting anything up for brand
- 00:19:10safety and suitability we're keeping all
- 00:19:11these at default most of the time you'll
- 00:19:13be on moderate inventory if you're on
- 00:19:15expanded inventory just be careful you
- 00:19:17might want to switch this to moderate
- 00:19:18inventory now we' talked about the
- 00:19:20structure a bit here what happens when
- 00:19:21we launch new ads within this system
- 00:19:24every single time we launch a new round
- 00:19:26of creatives every single time we have
- 00:19:28new new ads they get launched into a new
- 00:19:31broad audience very critically important
- 00:19:33and most people won't take this
- 00:19:34seriously most people will add ads into
- 00:19:37existing it's not what we want to do
- 00:19:39every single time you have new ads
- 00:19:40whether it's two ads three ads four ads
- 00:19:43launch them into a new broad audience
- 00:19:45you know you have your ads today get
- 00:19:46those into a few different audiences and
- 00:19:48a few different interest groups in total
- 00:19:50maybe two or three total let's say you
- 00:19:51have 10 ads maybe you just put all of
- 00:19:53them into one broad audience and the
- 00:19:54same duplicate of them into one interest
- 00:19:57however when you launch a new product or
- 00:19:58or when you get a new round of creative
- 00:20:00available to you by your creative team
- 00:20:02don't be tempted to just throw them into
- 00:20:04the existing audience and then go from
- 00:20:0610 ads here to 15 no it's not what we
- 00:20:08want to do even if you pause half of
- 00:20:10these ads down here you don't want to
- 00:20:11launch it into the existing ad set what
- 00:20:13you want to do instead is create a new
- 00:20:15ad set for every single round of
- 00:20:17creatives right so this campaign is
- 00:20:19going to get big over time we like to
- 00:20:21call our creatives packs easy way to
- 00:20:22identify it think of it as pack one pack
- 00:20:24two pack three or you could even say
- 00:20:26pack and then include the date that it
- 00:20:28was launched that's something we'd like
- 00:20:29to do with most of our accounts so we'll
- 00:20:30say like pack September 15th 2024 that's
- 00:20:33how we generally like to set things cuz
- 00:20:35then we have a good Ledger of what was
- 00:20:36launched when it was launched and how
- 00:20:37it's working over time this campaign
- 00:20:39gets big we have new adsets new adsets
- 00:20:41new adsets most of these adsets are 100%
- 00:20:44broad here's what happens on a 14-day
- 00:20:46basis you are taking the best ads only
- 00:20:48from your prospecting CBO campaign and
- 00:20:51you are graduating that into your scale
- 00:20:53campaign it sounds so simple people get
- 00:20:55this so confused I already went through
- 00:20:57exactly which ad you need to graduate
- 00:20:59the highest Spenders with the best
- 00:21:01returns leave the low spend High row ads
- 00:21:03and just move the best ones into this
- 00:21:05ASC scale campaign top 10% every 2 weeks
- 00:21:08if there's no outstanding winners don't
- 00:21:10put anything in the scale campaign it's
- 00:21:12quite all right don't worry about it one
- 00:21:13of the big things we could ask L do I
- 00:21:15pause down the ads in the prospecting
- 00:21:16CBO campaign that get graduated into
- 00:21:19this campaign the answer is no you don't
- 00:21:21pause down what's actually working ever
- 00:21:23in your account if there's ever an ad
- 00:21:24that's spending a lot and driving a high
- 00:21:26return for you you never pause it down
- 00:21:28no matter how many times you want to
- 00:21:29restructure even if you're listening to
- 00:21:31this video right now and you have one ad
- 00:21:32in one campaign that's working really
- 00:21:34really really well pause everything else
- 00:21:36down don't touch that one just let it go
- 00:21:37that ad is matched to the right person
- 00:21:40at the right time in the right placement
- 00:21:41don't mess with it it takes a lot to get
- 00:21:43there so we're graduating from the
- 00:21:45prospecting CBO into the ASC scale
- 00:21:47campaign on a regular 2E basis so if we
- 00:21:50take all the ads that we're running in
- 00:21:52this prospecting campaign we scroll all
- 00:21:53the way down to the bottom tell you
- 00:21:54right away we are pausing all of these
- 00:21:57right these are all ads that need to be
- 00:21:59paused nearly immediately right because
- 00:22:01while the whole account has spent
- 00:22:02$78,000 these ads have spent $22 $21 $19
- 00:22:06so on and look their return on ad spons
- 00:22:07are hardly anything right one purchase
- 00:22:09one purch they're just not scalable
- 00:22:11assets they're just taking up room
- 00:22:12they're just getting in the way we just
- 00:22:14don't need them they're not going to
- 00:22:15drive adequate conversions compared to
- 00:22:17the farm the big ones in the account
- 00:22:19right there's so much filler in here
- 00:22:21that just needs to get paused down on a
- 00:22:23regular basis that's going to help
- 00:22:24improve the overall efficiency in the
- 00:22:26account so we're just looking for low
- 00:22:27spend low
- 00:22:29I would do this in the exact opposite
- 00:22:30way that you decided what to graduate
- 00:22:32and I would do it on a regular 2E basis
- 00:22:35don't complicate this set your calendar
- 00:22:371 hour window for each brand that I'm
- 00:22:39specifically responsible for and I will
- 00:22:41specifically graduate the ads in this
- 00:22:431our time slot that are absolutely need
- 00:22:45to be graduated that need to be scaled
- 00:22:46and I will cut the ads that need to get
- 00:22:48cut in this exact same slot and I'll
- 00:22:50just do this every two weeks and we
- 00:22:51don't overthink it it's about doing this
- 00:22:53hundreds of times over dozens and dozens
- 00:22:55of weeks that compounds the ad account
- 00:22:58and then finally this last part is only
- 00:23:00applying if you have existing customers
- 00:23:02what we've created so far is very
- 00:23:04focused on new customer acquisition we
- 00:23:05have broad audiences and we have
- 00:23:07interest audiences these audiences are
- 00:23:09generally super wide they're able to
- 00:23:11Target hundreds of millions of people
- 00:23:13what about the customers you've already
- 00:23:14acquired because they definitely
- 00:23:16shouldn't be treated the same way as
- 00:23:17every single person that ever logs into
- 00:23:19Instagram or Facebook so the difference
- 00:23:21here is we're going to create a new
- 00:23:22campaign the same sales campaign it's
- 00:23:24going to be a manual sales campaign
- 00:23:26we're going to continue to see it best
- 00:23:27structure and then we're going to name
- 00:23:29it retention retention basically means
- 00:23:31that they have transacted with you don't
- 00:23:32get this confused with retargeting
- 00:23:34retargeting means they've interacted
- 00:23:36with you on your Instagram or on your
- 00:23:37Facebook page retention means they've
- 00:23:39handed you dollars generally this is
- 00:23:41going to represent around 10% of your
- 00:23:43budget now we're actually going to
- 00:23:44manage this on a frequency so before I
- 00:23:46even get into details here's how you
- 00:23:47would do this in your column set we have
- 00:23:49a column called frequency frequency is
- 00:23:51the average number of times each account
- 00:23:53Center account saw you're at account
- 00:23:55Center accounts are just people for the
- 00:23:56most part so every time a person saw
- 00:23:59your ad in most cases for frequency of
- 00:24:01retention over a last 7-Day window
- 00:24:03frequency should be no greater than
- 00:24:05seven this means that on average people
- 00:24:07will see your ads once per day you're
- 00:24:08always going to be in that person's view
- 00:24:10it's going to create a nice little nudge
- 00:24:13for some of these consumers to just say
- 00:24:14okay wait maybe I should buy from the
- 00:24:16brand I've already bought from that I've
- 00:24:17already transacted with they have my
- 00:24:18information they're telling me that
- 00:24:20there's a sale they're telling me that
- 00:24:21there's an offer they're telling me
- 00:24:22there's a new product I should buy from
- 00:24:23them today back to the strategy and
- 00:24:25structure of this campaign this campaign
- 00:24:27on the adet level is where the most
- 00:24:29important part is so you can imagine by
- 00:24:31now we're going all the way down to the
- 00:24:33bottom first we're switching to original
- 00:24:35audience it's the most important place
- 00:24:36you have to do this if you don't want to
- 00:24:38listen to me on the other two campaigns
- 00:24:39using original audience here is
- 00:24:41literally the difference between
- 00:24:42targeting your existing customers and
- 00:24:44targeting anyone that Facebook thinks
- 00:24:46you should Target for this case you
- 00:24:48really want to run custom audiences now
- 00:24:50as you can see here I have hundreds of
- 00:24:51custom audiences because in this account
- 00:24:53in particular we've built hundreds of
- 00:24:54different custom audiences in your case
- 00:24:56here's what we care about the most we
- 00:24:58want to create a new custom audience we
- 00:25:00want to use the website activity and we
- 00:25:02want to use purchase events you can type
- 00:25:04in purchase here and the audience
- 00:25:05retention rate is 180 days usually what
- 00:25:07I like to name it purchase 180 and click
- 00:25:10create audience once you do that it's
- 00:25:11automatically going to populate right
- 00:25:13into here that 188 audience should also
- 00:25:15be accompanied by whatever your CRM is
- 00:25:18right so if you're using clavo if you're
- 00:25:19using MailChimp wherever you're storing
- 00:25:21your data it needs to be ported back
- 00:25:23into Facebook the match rates in
- 00:25:25Facebook are lower than they ever have
- 00:25:26been so this is our opportunity to enh
- 00:25:28and improve the data that we have here
- 00:25:30so push in the same audience so what
- 00:25:32this would actually look like cuz I'll
- 00:25:33show you I have these audiences already
- 00:25:35set so what this is actually going to
- 00:25:36look like is a 180-day audience and then
- 00:25:38we're going to have a clavio audience
- 00:25:39cuz that's what we use for this specific
- 00:25:41account so we have a clavio for ads
- 00:25:43purchase 365 this is going to be my last
- 00:25:45365 day purchasers and we just want to
- 00:25:47stay top of mind with them we just never
- 00:25:49want to let them forget about us
- 00:25:50Advantage custom audience is
- 00:25:52automatically going to be select you
- 00:25:53could probably tell by now Facebook is
- 00:25:55just trying to expand your audience
- 00:25:56every chance they get we are unselecting
- 00:25:57this we don't want Facebook to have the
- 00:25:59chance to select our audiences we don't
- 00:26:01want them to Target anyone else we want
- 00:26:03them to Target our customers Advantage
- 00:26:05Detail targeting is left completely
- 00:26:06blank placements are everywhere this is
- 00:26:08the only place I'd be very strict where
- 00:26:10you really really really want to have
- 00:26:12all placements everywhere I don't care
- 00:26:13where the customer is I want to show up
- 00:26:15to them at least once per day every
- 00:26:17single day so I'm always top of Mind
- 00:26:19finally what ads do you put in this
- 00:26:21retention based campaign it's up to you
- 00:26:23this is the one place where there's not
- 00:26:24a exact perfect strategy the truth of
- 00:26:27the retention basic campaign what I
- 00:26:29normally like to do is I normally like
- 00:26:30to have my best performing ads in this
- 00:26:32retention campaign and in 99% of cases I
- 00:26:36never pause ads here I want to have 10
- 00:26:3820 30 ads in the retention base campaign
- 00:26:40I'm completely comfortable with having a
- 00:26:42massive variety here cuz I'm literally
- 00:26:44trying to Target a customer every day I
- 00:26:45don't want them to see the same two or
- 00:26:47three ads here I want them to see
- 00:26:48relevant ads fresh ads on a consistent
- 00:26:51basis so when things fatigue a new ad
- 00:26:53comes into play and starts to show up
- 00:26:54for them I'll happily pause down ads
- 00:26:56here and I'll happily integrate new ads
- 00:26:58we want new activations in here this is
- 00:27:00one of the only spots where you can move
- 00:27:02away from some of the direct response
- 00:27:03ads and you can kind of have a little
- 00:27:04bit more fun with your branding and new
- 00:27:06things that are coming and even some
- 00:27:07talk about your mission and your brand
- 00:27:09and different things that are going on
- 00:27:10in your company so the ads in the resent
- 00:27:12campaign don't overthink this part just
- 00:27:14show who you are and show them what
- 00:27:16you've already sold them and right here
- 00:27:18this is the exact structure that we're
- 00:27:19using to scale businesses right now if
- 00:27:22this was super valuable to you please
