Leverage AI + Competitors or Comparable Ads
Something I do when I get stuck (for inspiration) is 1 - Go to FB ad library, TikTok Ad library, you Favorite YT ads spy tool (I use Vidtao) and grab some great performing ads. They don't have to be in your industry, but they should be direct response style 2 - Open a new chat GPT thread and ask it to behave as an amazing copywriter, and tell them they are tasked with examining successful ad scripts from other industries. Their job is to analyze these other ads and pick out what about them made them KICK ASS and then using these ideas to spin up new hooks and angles for your own offer/client. Make sure to give GPT the top level overview of your offer (e.g. a life insurance company targeting moms & dads, offering them $500,000 in life insurance from $10 bucks a month with one call, no medical etc.) 3 - Press go and feed it scripts When I do this I almost always get great ideas for ads that I can test which I haven't come up with before. Plus they are coming from another industry versus my own. I'm going to make a more in-depth training on this, but for now I will post the YouTube video I did on this so you can see what I mean live.

Questions? How-to and Help!
Hey folks I have some new stuff coming for classroom on YouTube TV ads , hijacking creative from other industries for our own markets with GPT, and how we use all our best ads ever to combine and create new hook ideas for new markets with ai. But what else do you guys wonder how to do? Scripts? Intros and hooks? Testing frameworks? Hit me below!👇

For me testing frameworks. Every quarter I have two massive events to promote and YT is a big part...if I can get the ads approved lol. So I have a lot of different creative to test for each. Always looking for the best ways. 1-1-1 structure? 1-1-X structure? Not sure what the best methods are right now given I'm not in YT everyday as I used to be.

@Ian Henman 🔥 Would love to see what kind of thumnails you're using for the 16x9 too
YouTube tCPA bids are more "elastic" then you think
We had a tough time in August with one of our clients. They were complaining that their conversion on our leads had TANKED 🥶. I knew that this was partly about seasonality, as the client was in life insurance space, and August is almost the worst month outside of December and the Holiday season. So I didn't fret too much on the quality side, but the other thing I was noticing is that our spend to budget ration (the % of our daily budget being spent) was dropping every couple of days as well. e.g. budget is $1000 a day and it was spending $900, then $750 then $500 down to eventually only about 1/3rd of the daily budget was getting spent. This is usually an indication that our bids are not aggressive enough to get in front of the folks we want, so there are only two choices when this happens. 1. Bump our tCPA bid or switch to max conversions 2. Change our targeting or audience to access lower cost traffic so our current bid would get in front of them We decided to do both things. We cloned our original campaign that was doing well and switched from the mixed audiences we were targeting to completely broad (narrowed only by age). For this broad campaign we kept tCPA the same. We also created a new tCPA campaign targeting the best audiences we've used over the past 90 days (mix of custom segments based on keywords, affinity audiences, in market audiences and a lookalike of 5% to Google Engaged users). For that campaign I set the tCPA bid to almost 1.8x more (which was also what google suggested my tCPA bid be). I figured, OK this is gonna blow things out of the water. I set the budget to be 10X that tCPA bid and let em rip. RESULTS 🥁... CPA's came back to where we needed them to be in about 3 days (see screen shot of the broad and audience campaign). The client has not given us info yet on if conversion has increased on their end yet, as data needs to mature for 7-10 days before it's accurate, but I feel confident things will pop-up to where they used to be (6-7% conversion of lead to sale) by mid September.
