Brands scaling ad spend with nobody hired to run it

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.

The play in three steps

1Trigger

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.

2What it means

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.

3Move to make

Send a free waste audit of their live campaigns, savings in euros, on one page. No deck, no retainer pitch, the audit is the pitch.

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

Subject stop burning (that much) adspend

{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?

{yourDomain}

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