Andrei Haret

I rebuilt my mornings around movement.

3-4 sessions per week now: yoga, swimming, biking, rowing machine.

Each workout is 30-40 minutes. Nothing extreme.

If I'm not swimming that day, I still jump in the pool for 10 minutes after. Just to cool down and reset.

Then comes my favorite part: the recovery routine.

10 minutes in the wet sauna at 122 °F [50°C]. I do light yoga stretches in there. Helps the muscles relax and recover faster.

Then a 10-second cold plunge at 46 °F [8°C]. Quick shock to the system.

I finish in the warm pool with aqua massage jets. I position myself so the streams hit the tight spots. Shoulders, lower back, wherever I'm holding tension.

I do this in the mornings most days.

It's changed how I work. I'm sharper in meetings. I don't hit that 2pm wall anymore. My energy is more consistent throughout the day.

I'm planning to add a 4th session: kettlebell and weightlifting.

Just need to lock in the time slot and strengthen my ligaments first.

I've noticed I get injured quickly when I jump into strength work too fast.

If anyone has experience building up connective tissue before heavy lifting, I'd appreciate the guidance.

This isn't about being perfect. It's about building a system that makes the rest of the day easier.

If you're running a business, your energy is your most valuable asset. You can't pour from an empty cup.

What's your non-negotiable for staying sharp? I'm curious what works for other founders.

We turn Google & Meta Ads into B2B meetings and eCommerce revenue | CEO, MarketinGO

No alternative text description for this image

We're hiring a Senior Media Buyer to join MarketinGO.

This isn't just another agency role.

You'll manage high-impact campaigns for US and UK clients across Google, Meta, LinkedIn, and Bing. Lead gen and eCommerce projects that actually move the needle.

What makes this different:

You'll own the strategy. Not just execute tasks.

Work directly with clients. Your insights shape their growth.

Remote work with flexible hours. Because results matter more than clock-watching.

What we're looking for:

5+ years managing paid media campaigns with proven results.

Deep expertise in 2+ platforms (Google, Meta, LinkedIn, Bing, TikTok).

Strong analytical skills. You live in the data and find the story.

Experience with GA4, GTM, and attribution tools.

Excellent English. You'll communicate directly with clients.

Agency experience is a big plus.

Why join us:

Long-term contract with steady income.

Diverse projects across industries. No burnout from repetition.

Your ideas actually get implemented.

Career growth opportunities within the agency.

This is for someone who's ready to own outcomes, not just manage budgets.

I'll drop the application link in the comments. Takes 10 minutes to complete the first step.

We gather today to mourn Lookalike Audiences.

Born: 2013
Died: January 2025
Cause of death: Andromeda

In their prime, Lookalikes were incredible.

You'd upload your best customer list.
Meta would find people who looked just like them.
Your CPAs would drop. Your ROAS would soar.

It felt like magic.

For 12 years, they helped thousands of businesses scale.

Small brands competed with big ones.
Agencies built entire strategies around them.
We all thought they'd live forever.

But then Andromeda arrived.

Meta's new AI doesn't need your customer lists anymore.

It scans billions of behavioral signals in real-time.
Matches ads to people based on what they're doing right now.
Not what demographic bucket they fit into.

Lookalikes became obsolete overnight.

Advertisers who kept using them watched costs double.

Those who let them go and went broad? Better results than ever.

Here's what replaced them:

- Broad targeting across entire countries.
- 8-15 diverse ad concepts per campaign.
- Creative quality over audience engineering.

The truth? We're not mourning.

Because Andromeda does what Lookalikes did, but better.

It just doesn't need us to build the audience first.

Rest in peace, old friend. You served us well.

I used to think all marketing projects were the same.

Then I started working with products that actually made me stop and think.

Not another SaaS tool or generic supplement.

I mean products that force you to dig deeper into human behavior, psychology, and storytelling.

The kind that make you ask: "Who actually needs this? And how do I make them see it?"

Here are some of our clients who changed how I approach strategy:

💊 Mini wellness shots that work in 15 minutes (I keep them in my bag)

🧥 A coat that's waterproof, warm, and doesn't look like outdoor gear

🏃 AI that watches you run and tells you exactly what exercises fix your form

🛏️ Mattresses with copper threading that ground you while you sleep

🎯 Consultants who only work in markets no one else touches

These aren't just products to promote.

They're puzzles.

And the best part? You can't rely on templates or what worked before.

You have to understand the buyer at a level most marketers never reach.

You have to find that one angle that makes someone go, "Wait, this is exactly what I've been looking for."

That's what keeps marketing interesting for me.

Not the tactics. Not the metrics.

The products that push you to grow as a strategist and storyteller.

What's the most unique or niche product you've worked with or bought?

Most startups lose money during Black Friday without realizing it.

Zero qualified demos. Just noise.

Here's what most founders miss:

Black Friday isn't a growth opportunity for low-budget startups.

It's a trap.

You're not just competing with your industry anymore.

You're competing with every brand flooding inboxes and feeds.

CPCs spike 40-60% across Google and Meta.

Attention is fragmented. Buyers see 10x more offers than usual.

Your $50/day budget? It's invisible.

Even accounts with strong baselines lose performance during BFCM.

The math doesn't work:

Higher CAC + lower attention + saturated auctions = wasted spend.

You become a drop in the ocean.

If your launch isn't time-sensitive, wait.

Run your campaigns in January when:

- Competition drops
- CPCs normalize
- Buyers have bandwidth to evaluate

I've managed budgets from $20k to $1M/month.

The pattern is clear: timing beats tactics when you're resource-constrained.

Don't fight the current. Use it.

Save your budget for when you can actually win the auction and the attention.

What's your take? Have you tested BFCM as a startup and seen different results?

I don't know how anyone sells Google or Meta Ads courses anymore.

The platforms change every 3 months.

By the time you finish filming, the algorithm behaves differently, new features appear, like:
- Google's AI Overview
or
- You can now create videos inside Meta Ads accounts.

So the strategy is outdated.

As a course creator, you'd need to remake the entire thing quarterly. Harsh!

When I see ads courses for sale now, my first question is always: when was this recorded?

Because if it's 6 months old, there's a good chance the tactics don't work the same way anymore.

Enhanced Conversions rolled out. Broad match behavior shifted. PMax keeps getting new controls.

Static courses can't keep up with that pace.

I'm not saying courses are dead. But the format needs to change.

Maybe it's live cohorts with monthly updates. Maybe it's a membership with weekly tactical drops. Maybe it's just accepting that courses expire and pricing them accordingly.

We don't wait for courses to catch up.

We learn directly from the platforms. Daily updates, release notes, and testing in real accounts.

That's how you actually stay current.

This week, I started testing value rules for a fashion ecom brand.

They sell premium women's accessories with an average order value around $180. Their customer base skews 25-40, heavily female, with strong mobile traffic from Instagram and Facebook.

Here's 1 way I wouldn't recommend setting up Meta value rules:

Picking rules based on gut feeling. "Mobile users seem better" isn't a strategy. Without historical data backing your choice, you're gambling with budget.

This is how I'd do it instead:

1. Start with two rules maximum. Keep signal clean and learning fast.

2. Use historical performance to decide. Look for segments that showed consistent AOV lift and strong conversion rates in past campaigns.

3. Balance lift with scale. Pick criteria that cover enough volume to matter while staying focused enough to measure impact.

Remember:

Value rules work when you test strategically, not desperately. Start narrow, prove impact, then expand.

If you had to pick just 2 variants from this list to test first, which would you choose and why?

- Age 25-30 at 1.3x
- Women at 1.2x
- Mobile users at 1.2x
- Android at 1.25x
- Facebook Feed at 1.2x

I'll share the options I picked and the exact reasoning behind them in the comments section.

Reflection:

Your brain is running outdated software.

[I usually talk about Paid Media, but today I want to share something that's been on my mind...]

And most people never hit "update."

The narrative that explains our choices, our wins, our setbacks.

But here's what I've been thinking about lately:

How often do we edit that story?

Most of us are walking around with an outdated version of ourselves.

We're still the "person who struggles with public speaking" even though we've given 20 presentations this year.

Still the "bad at sales" person, despite closing three deals last month.

Still carrying labels from years ago that no longer fit.

But here's what most people miss:

The most revealing parts of your story aren't the loud thoughts.

Not the declarations like "I'm brave" or "I'm bad at this."

It's what you tell yourself between the lines.

The small, almost unnoticeable reactions that pop up while you're walking to a meeting.

The tiny judgments that flash through your mind during a conversation.

The automatic assumptions you make about yourself or others.

These quiet moments, these micro-narratives, are your real story.

Start collecting them like data points.

Notice what you whisper to yourself when no one's listening.

That's where the truth lives.

To make this more visual, there's a framework called the 12 Jungian Archetypes that can help you see the role you've cast yourself in.

Are you playing "The Innocent" who believes everything will work out?

"The Hero" who must overcome every challenge alone?

"The Rebel" who defines themselves by what they're against?

"The Ruler" who needs to be in control?

You can explore all 12 here: https://lnkd.in/dDCcBtSu

The story you tell yourself shapes everything: what opportunities you pursue, what risks you take, what you believe you're capable of.

But it's also selective.

We highlight certain chapters. We downplay others.

We cast ourselves as the hero in some scenes and the victim in others.

And we rarely ask: What am I leaving out? What am I protecting myself from seeing?

Your self-narrative isn't fixed. It's a draft.

And like any draft, it needs regular revision.

But here's the next step:

When you catch those signals, those micro-narratives, those automatic thoughts.

Stop and ask yourself: "Why am I doing this? Why am I acting like this?"

Always lead with the why.

Because the story isn't just what you tell yourself.

It's why you're telling it in the first place.

So here's my question for you:

When was the last time you updated the story you tell yourself about who you are?

What old chapter are you still living in that no longer serves you?

If you're a founder trying to build community on Instagram through paid ads, this is how you do it right.

There is no such objective in Meta, such as "To get followers to your Instagram account"

But you can drive profile views. And profile views convert to follows when your profile is worth following.

You can track follower growth in Ads Manager under Instagram followers. But the real insight comes from tracking which posts drive the most profile visits and subsequent follows.

Look at your post engagement data. Cross-reference with follower spikes. That tells you what content actually pulls people into your ecosystem.

Here's what works:

Run engagement campaigns targeting your ideal customer profile. Use content that stops the scroll. Drive comments and shares. Then retarget engagers with profile visit campaigns.

Stack awareness and consideration. Let the algorithm find people who actually care about what you post.

Why chase followers in the first place?

1. Build a community around your niche or offer
2. Showcase your work and case studies
3. Create a warm audience for retargeting
4. Establish credibility before sales conversations
5. Test messaging and offers in real time

But followers mean nothing if your profile doesn't convert.

Profile best practices:

Fill out your bio with clear value and positioning. Add links to your site, lead magnet, or booking page. Organize content into highlights. Pin your best posts at the top. Include a CTA in your bio.

Make it easy for someone to understand what you do and what to do next in 3 seconds.

Most brands run follower campaigns hoping for magic. Smart operators build profile-visit funnels and optimize what happens after the click.

What's your take on Instagram for B2B? Worth the effort or noise?

If you want access to this calculator for your business, comment LEAD and I will DM it to you. This is how I start every client engagement:

Not with promises. With math.

Most agencies pitch lead volume. I show the full funnel: visitors to profit.

Here's why this calculator matters:

It maps the complete journey. From 500 visitors to €312.50 profit. Every conversion point matters: leads, calls, sales, revenue.

It sets honest expectations. A €2.86 CPL looks great until you see €57.14 per call. That's where most campaigns break. The calculator shows it upfront.

It aligns on real success metrics. Not vanity numbers. ROAS, ROI, payback. The metrics that determine if we scale or kill the campaign.

It protects your cash. Before we spend €1, we know breakeven. We know what CPA we can afford. We know if the unit economics work.

As a performance marketer, I don't chase lead counts. I engineer profitable pipelines.

This calculator is the foundation. It turns guesswork into guardrails.

If your agency isn't showing you this math before they run ads, they're flying blind.

What metric do you track first when evaluating a new channel?
