Most media buyers run “test campaigns” on Meta to find creative winners. But after months of testing and reevaluating, I’ve eliminated test campaigns entirely—and performance has improved.
In this episode, I break down my updated approach to creative testing on Meta ads:
- Why launching ads directly into scale campaigns works better than test campaigns
- How manual bids and target ROAS outperform auto-bid setups
- What to do about false negatives and why they’re overblown
- When (and how) to use “warm-up” campaigns or flexible ads to boost performance
If you’re an eCommerce operator or growth marketer struggling with wasted ad spend, suppressed creatives, or inefficient testing structures, this guide will give you a repeatable framework for smarter testing and scaling.
