Engineers hate luck. So I don't wait for a lucky ad. I build a pipeline: research goes in, winners come out, so the next one's ready before your best ad gets tired. (That's the Keystone Belief Method, more below.)
Creative strategy for men's supplement brands spending $30K+/mo on Meta
Loser Pays.
If your ad wins, you pay $0 & I call my mum to admit she was right about me quitting banking (oh, the shame).
So they make MOAR ads:
New hooks. New faces. Maybe a fresh UGC creator.
CPA creeps up anyway (the bastard)...
Because it's the same 3 angles paraphrased 20 ways & labelled "creative diversity."
Ads Manager tells you WHICH ad won. Never WHY.
So every new batch is a guess.
I find the WHY first. Then I build ads different enough to take your winner's job.
Show Me Why My Winner Won(I'm an odd cocktail of a human being)
Engineer. Finance MBA. Investment banker for nearly a decade. Now direct-response copywriter & offer owner.
Side effects include a very profitable hangover.

Spent my banking years running 8-fig deals and leading teams of 20+. So I do the math before the mood board. At $30K/mo in spend, knocking $10 off a $60 CPA gets you ~100 extra customers. Every single month.
(Meta's ROAS screenshots make lovely wallpaper. I'd rather read the bank balance.)
Mentored by A-list copywriters with $150M+ in sales behind them, incl. Ning Li (copy chief, 8-fig PaleoHacks). Hired by Chris Orzechowski. Final round with Parris Lampropoulos at Advanced Bionutritionals. Named an up-and-coming copywriter by Kevin Rogers.
(Cause "good enough" doesn't beat your control.)
Most strategists have never had to sell their OWN offer. I burned $7,335 on 253 ice-cold ads for mine. ~44% hook rate, ~3% CTR... and still losing $25+ per customer. Because only 6.8% of visitors made it to checkout. Now I HAVE to check what comes after the click on every damn account.
(Turns out you can't pay bills with a nice CTR. How rude.)
(because "trust me bro" doesn't scale)
$471K
3 months of IG story statics for a finance offer. I researched it, tested the angles, built the statics, wired the DM funnel & ran the spend. All inside Meta's Special Ad Category, where one sloppy claim gets your ad killed. (Hello, supplement claims ๐๐ป)
$65,331
$65,331 of spend on a single ad. 6,809 conversations at $9.59 each.
I tested 238 ads & starved 198 of them. The 40 that earned it took 94.5% of the budget.
$7,335 of my own money
$37 front end + $19 bump + $27 one-click upsell = $47 AOV. Best ad: under $25 CPA on ice-cold traffic.
$401K
That's the "after-the-click" half of the job.
Ok, time to put my money (& mum) where my mouth is:
Send me your best ad.
I build 3 challengers from it. You run them head to head against your ad for 7 days, in your account. Same audience, same budget. You cover the spend.
Lowest CPA wins. If it's close, you win.
So if my ads win, you pay $500 & keep a brand-new winner. But if your control spanks them, you pay $0, keep every ad anyway, and I:
You make sales. Or you MAKE SALES.
Open to the first 3 brands only, cause I'm stacking supplement case studies.
(So the next time someone asks "...but have you done supplements?" I just send the link.)
After those 3, mum goes back to telling her friends I "do something on the computer."

I spent nearly a decade in investment banking, then quit cause it was BORING as hell. Mum still hasn't gotten over it.
Now I'm up at 4AM with a 33-min timer, tearing down the longest-running ads on Foreplay. 3 passes each, with the attention required when my wife asks "see what I did today?"
(uhhh... new haircut?)
My cabinet's full of Shilajit, Rhodiola & other exotic stuff I put in my mouth each morning. So I'm not just your strategist.
I AM your market.

Anyhow, I only work on products I'd buy for my mum. I love my mum.
