    Sometimes I’m afraid that these kinds of videos will be too high-level and not tactical enough. But I wanted to give some insight into real conversations I’m having with brands right now in April 2024. The solution isn’t always as easy as “test this creative” or “try this account structure”.
    If you’re having big problems with your performance on Facebook Ads today, your focus should not be on the button pushing inside of Ads Manager.
    It should be about if you’re actually well positioned to succeed on this platform in 2024. Many brands are not.

      They don’t talk about it because they sell courses. We are talking about this issue since 9 months now, specially after Feb 14 the ads just went down the rabbit hole. Frankly most of the “gurus” on UA-cam are nothing more that a little bit upper amateurs aiming at selling courses or consulting. Dara is one of few I still respect and have desire to listen because of her creative strategy skills.

    After Feb 14 ads went down the rabbit hole. Mostly because as every year at the end of Q1 Meta releases updates and this mess with the algo. They should get to normal soon. The problem is that the new normal is not the great normal as it used to be.

      @@DaraDenney for sure, it's also nice to know if other people are having general performance issues compared to past results, kind of good bad news in a way. You get in a vacuum running a brand, so I think its important to have context on what the market is feeling. I'm putting more efforts into google and social organic, releasing more new tshirts (but calculated limited quantity runs) to stay in front of people and give them a reason to buy. I"m also trying to be strategic about which designs I release, really thinking through what nerves can I hit right now to get people to buy. So generally, just more calculated than ever but also not holding back trying to move the brand forward and push design so I can be known as the brand that never stops innovating in my space. I'm launching tik tok as well, will dip my toe in there, we'll see what happens. Look forward to your next videos.

    -Positioning
    -Offer
    -marketing angles
    -CRO & Landing pages

Each gift box contains a necklace and a thoughtful message card, priced between $40 to $90, including shipping. I exclusively sell to customers in the USA. Should I opt for broad targeting or interest targeting? The interests I am thinking to target include Macy’s, Nordstrom, engaged shoppers, online shopping, gifts, and flowers, all relevant to potential gift buyers.

    Glad to see public faces mentioning this, but I have to say the content of the video isn’t really actionable, a bit disappointing. It may be insightful, inspirational.. but in reality we already do all these things daily as founders on smaller brands. Meta may be fixed tomorrow, or next year, we need to switch tactics, not someone who tell us to switch tactics :/
    I was expecting more insight on alternate strategies like some tactics via physical mail campaign, email marketing tactics, partnerships with brands, affiliates, referral , brand ambassadors.. we all know we need to rethink our strategy, but we could use a little help on some out of the box strategies that have worked for others. As someone who work with multiple companies, you must have seen various tactics.

Meta is an amplifying tool. if your product is targeting an untapped market, you get amazing result. If you are one of many, you are out of luck
