Fundamentals over trends


Yo!

Quick win for you.

One of the GM+ members just launched her first Facebook ads using the $1 Product Challenge materials and the updated Living Meta Ads training.

She emailed me her numbers and the big takeaways are simple:

… AOV higher than ad spend.
… Profitable within a few days.

But here’s the real point.

Everyone’s losing their minds over the Andromeda update.

CPAs up. Reporting delayed. Creative burning out faster.

And people are assuming their ads are suddenly “broken”.

They’re not.

The game didn’t change.

The fundamentals still win. Those fundamentals being...

  • Have a great offer
  • Create good ads
  • Work on the economics of the funnel
  • Launch and adjust as you get data back in

When your offer is sharp and your funnel economics are tight, Andromeda becomes noise.

The only real big change on Meta is how targeting is done and how many creatives you give it.

But, beyond that...

... Buyers still buy.
... Good funnels still convert.

Focus on building a good system and finding the right buyers, and you scale while everyone else is in Facebook groups crying about cost per lead.

S's setup is also wonderfully simple.

Budget is $40 / day.

Solid fundamentals of the funnel being...

  • Front-end offer
  • Bump offer at 2X FE price
  • Upsell 1 at 3.5 X FE price
  • Upsell 2 at 10X FE price

It's the exact same kind of structure you'll find me teaching anyone.

But because she built it properly (and has created some banger ads), she’s profitable even with the volatility.

And yeah, it's early days.

But the fact is her offer is 1005 proven as she's got complete strangers to buy it before they know anything about her.

If you want help making your ads Andromeda-proof, reply “GM+” and I’ll point you in the right direction.

Talk soon,

I soft-launched a new offer recently, the custom $1 Product Blueprint build, and it reminded me of something people forget about when it comes to helping prospects. Quick note before I get into it. I’m opening a few DFY strategy build slots again. If you want me to build your growth system for you, reply and I’ll share the details. So, the new offer has a super simple onboarding approach... ... Customer buys.... They fill in a form.... I build the custom blueprint. Simple, right? But within a...

A little while back, my downspout from our roof terrace was blocked. I'd look out of the window and see the hoppers filling with water, which then spilled all over the side of the house. Obviously, not ideal, but I could easily fix this myself... or at least I thought it was. I grabbed a drain snake and got to work after an hour or so of rattling that snake around, I patted myself on the back for a job well done. Yet when the next rain came, it overflowed again. Turns out there were more...

Yo! So I'm flirting with the idea of low-ticket done-for-you services. I've seen a couple of people shift this way and I want to test it. I mean, I've got the templates, systems, and proof to make this work. I just need a handful of people (I'm thinking 3-5) to help me work out the kinks. If you're up for it, hit reply and let me know. If you want more info, here's the detail. I'm of the opinion low-ticket offers will move on from the common... Info-based courses Fill-in-the-blank templates...
