How to Regain Consistency with Facebook Ads After the Andromeda Update
The Andromeda update shook things up. Here’s the step-by-step framework to bring structure—and results—back to your ad campaigns.
The Three-Part System That Works Now
Think of your ad strategy as a funnel with three campaigns. Each one has its role:
- Prospecting – Find the Winners: Launch a CBO campaign with broad targeting, start lean (~$30/day), test 5–8 creatives weekly, and promote winners.
- Remarketing – Build Trust: Target warm audiences, use testimonials and FAQs, dedicate ~20% of daily spend.
- Scaling – Maximize Return: Move proven ads into a scaling campaign, start with $100–$200/day, and raise budgets 5–10% gradually.
Build a Playbook That Wins
The Andromeda update made one thing clear: your creative does the targeting.
- Research First: Define who your customer is, what problem they need solved, and why your offer is unique.
- Creative Angles: Pain points, desires, objections, and promises.
- Formats: Rotate static images, UGC, videos, and before/after shots.
- Copy Framework: Hook → Pain → Relief → Process → Proof → CTA.
Tip: Refresh creatives weekly. Creative fatigue kills performance faster than poor targeting.
Scale Without Losing Control
Manual bidding helps you stay profitable while scaling:
- Set bid caps just below your break-even CPA.
- Raise bids slowly in small increments.
- Ensure budgets are about 20× your target CPA.
Your New Weekly Routine
Consistency comes from repetition. Here’s your rhythm:
- Test broadly in Prospecting.
- Move winners into Scaling.
- Retarget warm audiences.
- Refresh creatives every week.
- Track results in a playbook.
