I think you hit on a lot of pain points that people working with ads don't even realize they have. As someone that's tried a few 'ad gurus' before I understood a lot of what you were saying, and your guys' method of explaining why you do or don't do things instead of just trusting blindly is very powerful. If it wasn't a live class I'd be tempted to sign up myself.

Testing out a new image....
What do you think? I think I need different text for the top. Maybe 'Your Ad dashboard' or something. Still a concept!

It looks great.... but I'm about to go search for funnel cakes now, it looks too yummy. I think the text on top is perfect but the flow to the bottom one feels a bit off? like the correlation isn't there for people that don't know, then again I'm no expert.
Creative Images
Have you created ad images you want feedback on? Toss them in here! ✅Make sure you list your genre (or don't and see if others can pick up the cues from what you created) ✅Watched the videos ✅Used the Resource PDFs in each classroom

@Rebecca Enzor Your first one the cover dominates the graphic for me and doesn't let me linger on the trope maps. It's a great cover! but it really stole my attention. I ADORE the graphic for the 2nd one. It is clear she's in a tank or a 'prison' because of the clever use of the bars. have you tried splitting up the text so you have it above and below the graphic so it can go a little bigger?

@Jill Cooper I broke one rule... I peeked at my attribution on day 2 because I was curious.... and I think I missed a step because I'm only using the trope map image? I'm not sure when to implement the other and the reel... BUT.... the graph I saw made me *so* happy. It's been flat. I started the ad on Dec 11th evening time and to see movement that fast feels unreal.... Thank you so much for the confidence to give these things another shot <3
Today's Lunch with Mal checklist
Here’s how Facebook thinks, here’s why most advice doesn’t apply to authors, and here’s the deepest signal we can give Facebook to train the algorithm effectively. I thought I would highlight the replay, graphic, and checklist! Checklist: Funnel Breakdown.docx

I really wish people had explained the FB funnel earlier! It makes so much sense now that it's been broken down, and I appreciate how it was done so instead of 'oh you aren't going to need these so it doesn't really matter if you know what they do or not' I really appreciate all the in depth information we've been getting in here!

@Jill Cooper I'm hoping these ads do well so I can join your other community. I can only imagine what tidbits I'm probably missing out on. I want to absorb it all

@Rebecca Enzor I haven't tried the new ads yet... I'm still getting through the courses, but I can already tell these are VERY different from what I've been running before. I was very stubborn with my old ones and was like 'well this worked before, I'll just try to throw more money at it!' which is really a horrible way... making two different ad images really made me think more about the creatives and branching out.

@Rebecca Enzor oh i was desperate. I just noticed my AMS ads I had set up have been losing me money this month... and at least I found it right away, but nothing sets a fire under you more than losing money! I'm determined to make this work. I first got success with Mal's methods in an Inker con forever ago, but tried some others since then but came back because those felt more like I got lucky than actual skill.... These classes make me feel less like its a gamble with fate.
