You don’t need “creative juices” to make winning ads.
You need research.

Scroll your niche for 30 minutes and you’ll know exactly what your audience wants.
Scroll AI prompts for 30 minutes and you’ll just confuse yourself.

Your next $1M ad isn’t in your head.
It’s in a Reddit comment.

Dennis Willeboordse 👨🏼‍🦰

Slashing acquisition costs via performance creatives and paid media for 7-9 figure Ecommerce brands.

We copied competitor ads for 6 months straight.
Same formats, new messaging.

Revenue? Flat at $300k/month.

Then we started looking outside our niche.
Studied skincare, supplements, gadgets — and borrowed ideas, not ads.

2 months later → $100k/day.

It’s the easiest kind of innovation that works:
Copy psychology, not creative.

90% of you are stalking Foreplay, copying your competitors, and wondering why you’re plateaued.

We did the same.
Got stuck at $300k/month for half a year.

Then we started looking outside our vertical — studying skincare ads, gadget ads, supplements, all of it.

Within 2 months, $100k/day.

It’s not the format that works.
It’s the psychology behind it.

The thing I like about longer sales periods...

Is that you are able to pivot and test fast, kill what is not working and focus on what works.

Creative taking off?

Iterate and make more of it.

Kill losers, scale winners. As always.

Every brand is “preparing” for BFCM.

Translation:
→ Still designing graphics
→ Still thinking about offers
→ Still saying “this year will be different”

It won’t. Unless you start yesterday.

90% of you don’t have a creative problem.
You have a testing problem.

Stop looking for the perfect ad.
Start building the perfect process that finds it for you.

Most of you copy competitor ads.
That’s why you’re stuck while they scale.

We did it too — got stuck at $300k/month.
Then started looking outside our niche.
2 months later → $100k/day.

Copy less.
Research more.
That’s the difference between imitation and domination.

“Bro, how do you come up with ad ideas?”
I don’t.

I just scroll Reddit and steal what people already complain about.

You don’t need creative juices.
You need caffeine and a niche to research.

The most dangerous phrase in advertising:
"Let's try something different."

I hear it every time performance dips.

ROAS drops. Panic sets in. Everyone wants to pivot.

But "different" isn't a strategy.

Here's what actually works when ads start declining:

Step 1: Diagnose Before You Pivot
Don't assume the creative is dead. Check:
→ Is the hook rate dropping? (Fatigue)
→ Is the CTR dropping? (Offer clarity issue)
→ Is the CVR dropping? (Landing page problem)

Step 2: Iterate, Don't Reinvent
If hook rate is the issue, swap the first 3 seconds. Keep everything else.
If CTR is dropping, test different CTAs. Keep the angle.

Step 3: Test Adjacent, Not Opposite
If your winning angle was "expert authority," don't jump to "funny UGC."
Test “different expert” or “expert + patient testimonial.”

Stay close to what worked.

Real example:
Brand's top ad started declining after 6 weeks.

Their instinct: "Let's make something totally new."

Our move: Keep the exact script. Just change the creator from a 30-year-old to a 45-year-old.

Boom. CPA dropped 22%.

Ad ran another 8 weeks.

Innovation for innovation's sake kills momentum.

Iteration keeps winners alive.

When performance dips, don't ask "what's new?"

Ask "what's still true about what worked?"

Then build from there.

I talked to a founder yesterday who said:
"I just need someone to make ads that work."

I told him:
"No you don't. You need a system that finds what works."

Big difference.

Anyone can make ads.

But making ads that predictably drive down CPA and scale profitably?
That requires infrastructure.

Here's what that infrastructure actually looks like:

Layer 1: Research System
How do you gather customer insight? (Reviews, Reddit, support tickets, interviews)

Layer 2: Angle Development
How do you turn insights into testable messages?

Layer 3: Production Engine
How do you execute at volume without sacrificing quality?

Layer 4: Testing Framework
How do you structure tests so you learn something regardless of performance?

Layer 5: Learning Loop
How do you capture and compound insights from every test?

Most agencies only offer Layer 3.

They’ll make you 50 ads.

But they won’t tell you which angles to test or why.

The brands scaling past $1M/month don’t just have good creative.

They have systems that continuously surface what works and kill what doesn’t.

That's not a service.

That's an operating system.

And it's the only way to scale sustainably.

Most brands' creative testing looks like this:

Launch 10 ads.
Wait a week.
Pick the winners.
Repeat.

But they never ask WHY an ad won.

So when it dies, they're back to square one.

Here's what the brands scaling past $500K/month do differently:
They track angles, not just ads.

Every creative gets tagged with:

→ The core message
→ The awareness level
→ The format
→ The hook type

Then they group performance by angle.

If three different creatives with the “sleep disruption” angle all perform,
that's the signal.

They don’t remake the video.

They remake the angle in 5 new ways.

This is how you turn creative testing into a compounding system
instead of a guessing game.

Everyone's talking about creative volume.
"You need 50 ads a week to scale."

But here's what they're not saying:
Volume without direction is just noise.

I audited a brand last month spending $300K/month on Meta.
They were producing 60+ ads every week.

But performance was flat.
Why?

Because they had no angle strategy.
They were just making "stuff."

Different creators.
Different scripts.
Different formats.

But no hypothesis.
No learning.
No compounding.

The fix wasn't more ads.
It was fewer, better-targeted angles tested systematically.

We cut their output to 30 ads/week.
But every ad was designed to answer a specific question:
→ Does this pain point resonate?
→ Does this hook work for cold traffic?
→ Does this format convert better than UGC?

Within 6 weeks, CPA dropped 32%.

The lesson?
Quality isn't just about production value.
It's about strategic intent.

Make fewer ads.
Test smarter.

The best creative strategists I know don't just make ads.

They ask better questions.

Not: "What video should we make?"
But: "What belief do we need to shift to get this person to buy?"

Not: "Which format is trending?"
But: "Which format best delivers this specific message to this awareness level?"

Not: "Why did this ad fail?"
But: "What did this ad teach us about our market?"

Better questions = better ads.

I spoke to a founder spending $400K/month on Meta.

His biggest problem?
He was still personally writing, filming, and approving every single ad.

He was the highest-paid employee in his company,

but he was acting like the most junior creative.

He was the bottleneck.

This is the classic trap of the 7-figure founder.

You get there by doing everything.

But you scale past it by building systems that do the work for you.

Your job isn't to be the best creative in your business.

It's to build the system that produces the best creative.

Ads are overrated.

At least, by themselves.

A great ad can bring the right people to your business.

But it can't fix a broken business model.

You can have the best creative in the world, but it will fail if:
→ Your offer isn't clear, compelling, and urgent.
→ Your landing page is slow, confusing, or untrustworthy.
→ Your retention strategy is non-existent.

Ads turn attention into traffic.

Your offer, conversion experience, and customer LTV are what turn traffic into profit.

Focus on the fundamentals first.

I spoke to a brand spending $200K/month on Meta last week.

ROAS was declining.
CPA was climbing.
Every new creative batch underperformed the last.

Their diagnosis?
"We need better creators."

My diagnosis?
They had no idea what was actually working.

They were tracking metrics, but not insights.

They could tell me their top ad's ROAS.

But they couldn't tell me why it worked.

Was it the hook?
The angle?
The format?
The creator's delivery?
No clue.

So when that ad died, they just made random stuff and hoped something hit again.

This is the trap most brands fall into.

They treat creative like a content factory instead of a feedback system.

The fix isn't making more ads.

It's building a system that captures what you learn from every test.

We call it the Creative Data System.

It turns your ad account into a compounding intelligence machine.

Every ad answers a question.

Every test builds on the last.

After 90 days, you don't just have a library of ads.

You have a playbook of exactly what makes your customers stop, engage, and buy.

That's the difference between guessing and scaling.

Creative isn't just content.

It's a data system.

Most brands throw creatives into their ad account and hope something sticks.

The best brands turn their ad account into a feedback loop.

Every ad is a test designed to answer a specific question:
→ Which pain point resonates most with our audience?
→ Which hook stops the scroll for this persona?
→ Which angle builds the most trust and authority?

They're not just making ads.

They're systematically uncovering what their customers actually care about, then scaling those insights.

That's the difference between guessing and scaling.

The brands that win on Meta in 2025 aren't the ones with the biggest budgets.

They're the ones with the clearest systems.

I've worked with brands spending $50K/month and brands spending $1M/month.

The difference isn't always the money.

It's how they think about creative.

The stuck brands ask:
"What ad should we make next?"

The scaling brands ask:
"What insight are we testing, and how will we measure it?"

One treats creative like content.
The other treats it like a scientific process.

If you want to scale past your current ceiling, start thinking like a scientist,
not a content creator.

A founder told me yesterday:
"We're spending $150K/month but ROAS keeps dropping. We need new creatives."

I looked at their account.

They didn't need new creatives.

They needed a new approach.

Here's what I saw:
→ 80% of their ads were middle-of-funnel social proof
→ Zero problem-aware content for cold traffic
→ No founder-led ads
→ No authority figures

They were fishing in one tiny corner of the pond and wondering why they couldn't catch more fish.

The fix wasn't more ads.
It was full-funnel creative diversity.

Within 4 weeks of adding top-of-funnel educational content and bottom-of-funnel offer ads, they hit their highest ROAS month in 6 months.

Scaling isn't about doing more of what works.

It's about filling the gaps.

Your ad account isn't a creative library.

It's a learning machine.

Most brands look at their Meta account and see:
→ A list of ads
→ Some winners
→ Some losers

But they're missing the real value.

Every ad is a data point.

Every test tells you something about your market:
1. Which problems they care about most
2. Which language stops the scroll
3. Which proof points build trust
4. Which formats hold attention

The brands that scale are the ones who capture these insights and turn them into a playbook.

They don't just know their top ad.

They know why it worked.

And they can replicate it.
