The play in three steps
Active ads up two months in a row in the Meta and Google ad libraries, and no paid-media title anywhere in the org or its job posts.
The spend is outgrowing the person managing it, usually the founder at 11pm. Waste climbs with the budget and nobody has the time to see it.

Who it targets
- Ideal customer
- E-commerce and B2B brands in your size range with a growing ad footprint and no in-house media buyer.
- Decision maker
- The founder, or whoever's name is on the ad account. It is the same person.
- Where the signal is read
- Meta and Google ad libraries, read monthly per brand, crossed with LinkedIn headcount and job posts for a paid-media title.
- Window
- The month the budget jumps. That is when they feel it slipping.
First email
{firstName},
{companyName} went from {adsLastMonth} to {adsThisMonth} active ads in a month, and I could not find anyone on the team whose job is to run them.
If I could show you where [the share of budget going to waste] leaks right now, in euros, on one page (no call, I send it), would you be interested in seeing it?

PS: if this is irrelevant, reply with a big "NO" to my face and I will stop right there :-)
