@Anthony Vu generally speaking I want to use the deepest funnel optimization that's available to me with at least 50 conversions in a week. I don't see any reason to optimize for a lead if we're getting 50 schedules in a week on a VSL funnel for example. That said it's always worth a test and I would say that I would treat an optimization test much like I would treat an audience test

@Bass Smith so the way I'd think about this is heavily based on how much you pay for a conversion. For example, if you're trying to get leads, and a lead costs $20 for you, and your budget is set at $20, you're simply not going to get enough leads to feed the pixel enough quality data, and your ads will underperform. Ideally, you're optimizing your ad sets toward a goal that you can get at least 50 of in a week. I'd either adjust your goal or your budget until that is the case. From a targeting strategy + creative aspect, I'd start with ADV+ and layer in high intent lookalikes, like 1% of your current customers if you have a large enough customer pool. Then, since you're at such a low budget, I'd combine everything into that one adset (up to 50 ads) -- because ultimately the pixel is going to feed that one ad set your conversion data, and use it to optimize who sees the ads. I'd cull out any ads that underperform, and continue to test new angles, until you see a lead costs that gets you closer to 50/week. Disclaimer: $20/day is not enough spend for 99% of offers. The better way to go about this would be to spend more, and make sure you understand how much you're willing to pay for a lead based on what % of the leads you get go on to buy from you.
New Creative Testing Strategy for Andromeda
Meta Andromeda Changed the Game — Here’s the New Creative Strategy Meta’s Andromeda update quietly killed the old belief that better targeting = better results. If you’re still optimizing interests, lookalikes, and micro-audiences like it’s 2021, you’re playing the wrong game. Andromeda shifted the power somewhere else entirely: Creative quality is now the lever. More specifically…testing static images before you produce a single video is now the fastest, lowest-cost way to win. I break the full strategy down in the video below, but here’s the core idea your team should understand. Why Static Images Matter Again Andromeda learns through signals. The more creative variations you give it, the faster it figures out what resonates with your market. Static images are perfect for this because they’re: - fast to produce - cheap to test - easy to scale in volume You can validate hooks and angles with $50–$200 of spend before investing in recording, editing, scripting, or production. Most advertisers go straight to video and hope it works. Static images remove the guesswork. The 3-Step Testing Framework 1. High-volume static image testing Simple copy callouts. Clean images. No production. Load your account with volume and give Andromeda room to learn. 2. Sort by meaningful signals Look at CAC, ROAS, CTR, CPM — not vanity metrics. Winning angles surface quickly. 3. Convert static winners into videos Take the hook from your best-performing static and make it the first 3 seconds of your video. Andromeda already confirmed the angle works — now you scale it with video. Why This Matters Right Now: The old playbook rewarded structure. The new ecosystem rewards iteration and creative diversity. Advertisers who win in the Andromeda era will be the ones who test faster, learn quicker, and produce more effective creative at scale. Static-first testing is the simplest way to do that.

Hormozi and the update
Hi guys, hope you’re all well. I recently came across this technique that Hormozi uses for creating ads — as you can see in the screenshot — where you create around 50 hooks, 5 bodies, and 3 call-to-actions, and then mix them to generate lots of different video variations. The idea is to reduce ad fatigue and keep things fresh on Meta. I think it probably works well, but I wanted to ask: how does this approach hold up after the Andromeda update? Since the update requires more creative diversity for the algorithm, I’m wondering whether this method is still effective or if it needs adapting. Would love to hear your thoughts!

The way I think about it is that this still works well to test theories and see what's going to scale in your ad account. But when you actually go about putting a lot of spend behind it, you're going to want to do a lot more visual variation For example if something's working, you could re-record it in a new setting, or with a new person, or with a new outfit, and you'll probably see it scale differently
This is why most info businesses fail
after working with 100s of info businesses in the last several years, here's what separates the ones who keep winning apart from the ones who fizzle out: speed of iteration. sounds simple, but let me break it down for you. the average info guru finds a pocket with their offer that converts like crazy with one specific funnel type example: high ticket health coaching maybe they record a killer webinar, run it evergreen, and scale it slowly to ~300k spend a month they think to grow the biz their main focus points need to be sales + fulfillment so they put a year or two into growing a killer sales team and ensuring the product is good. both great things to do at 100k/mo, they see almost no attrition, so they spend 200k the next month CAC goes up a bit, but hey, volume is good. "we can afford for costs to be a bit higher." so they scale more, and eventually they get to 300k/mo. call costs are higher now, but they're still profitable. so they try to scale to 400k. whoops, they made the same amount of profit as they did at 300k. calls stopped converting for some reason? so they focus on sales culture again. fire some reps. hire some others. they might keep a/b testing the funnel, dialing in some stuff like CRM + followup. maybe they swap agencies a few times, thinking surely there's someone out there who is better at media buying and can get them past the "scale wall". but here's what actually happened: the market moved on. that webinar format that crushed it 18 months ago has now been seen by the market 100 times. the hooks are stale. the objections have evolved. competitors copied the good parts and improved on them. meanwhile, the winners never stopped moving. while the first guy was perfecting his sales team and squeezing another 2% out of his webinar, the winners were testing: - VSLs when webinars started getting saturated - application funnels when VSLs got expensive - advertorials when everyone was running video ads - challenge funnels when automation got cheap

@Dr. Matt Shiver appreciate you homie!
How diverse do your creatives need to be nowadays?
I heard with the Andromeda update you need your creative to be more diverse. No more of the "one body copy with 10 different hooks" strategy. But how diverse do the creatives need to be? Can I still reuse part of the same script if I edit it differently, wear a different shirt, maybe a different color grade? Or do I actually need to word it differently? TIA

it's hard to say exactly, but meta is leading us to believe it literally is scanning the pixels of your ads to see similarity. so new backgrounds, clothing... net new "looking" ads should suffice. https://x.com/jasonyimco/status/1975687580449710215
