Summary of "The Only Meta Ads Structure You Need In 2025 (Bid Caps & Cost Caps)"
The video presents a streamlined and effective Meta (Facebook) ads account structure designed for 2025, focusing on the use of Bid Caps and Cost Caps to optimize ad spend, scale campaigns, and reduce unnecessary account adjustments.
Main Financial Strategies and Business Trends:
- Bid Caps vs. Cost Caps:
- Bid Caps: Set a maximum bid amount Facebook can use in auctions to find customers within that bid. Used primarily at the adset level.
- Cost Caps: Set a target cost per purchase over a 7-day period, allowing Facebook to optimize for that cost but may take up to 7 days to stabilize.
- Bid Caps still drive the majority of spend, while Cost Caps are used strategically for testing new markets.
- Campaign Structure:
- Use Campaign Budget Optimization (CBO) with Bid Caps.
- Launch multiple adsets per campaign (5-10 weekly), each containing 2-3 video ads of varying durations but same creative angle and audience avatar.
- High creative volume is essential—launch 10-20 ads per day to give Facebook many "bets" to find winners.
- Avoid frequently changing or "touching" the account to prevent disrupting algorithm learning.
- Creative Testing and Duplication Workflow:
- Launch all new creative tests in bid cap campaigns first.
- Once winning creatives are identified, duplicate them into Automated Signal Campaigns (ASC) with Cost Caps.
- ASC campaigns group multiple countries together for testing new markets with minimized risk.
- When a country hits 50 purchases in ASC, create a dedicated bid cap campaign for it.
- Audience and Adset Organization:
- Campaign = House; Adsets = Rooms grouping people with shared interests.
- Group ads in adsets by product type or benefit to minimize algorithm confusion and improve targeting.
- Use diverse creatives (video, carousel, static) within adsets to create a funnel effect.
- Modify ad copy text to target specific pain points or benefits within the same creative assets.
- Scaling and Spend Optimization:
- Facebook spends more when demand is higher, often indicated by conversion rate spikes.
- Launch ads alongside offers or email direct marketing (EDM) campaigns to capitalize on increased demand.
- Set budgets generously (e.g., $30,000/day) to allow Facebook room to scale spend when conditions are favorable.
- Do not force spend by increasing bids or caps repeatedly; instead, improve creative quality.
- Creative Diversity and Funnel Building:
- People rarely buy after one ad exposure; multiple touchpoints are needed.
- Use a mix of top-of-funnel (awareness), middle-of-funnel (product benefits, testimonials), and bottom-of-funnel (discounts, urgency) ads within the same campaign or adset.
- Let Facebook automatically build the funnel rather than manually setting complex exclusions or retargeting layers.
Step-by-Step Methodology:
- Set up bid cap campaigns using CBO with multiple adsets.
- Launch 2-3 video ads per adset, varying duration but consistent angle and avatar.
- Feed the algorithm high creative volume (10-20 ads daily).
- Launch new creatives first in bid cap campaigns.
- Duplicate winning creatives into ASC cost cap campaigns for multi-country testing.
- Once a country reaches 50 purchases in ASC, create a dedicated bid cap campaign for scaling.
- Group adsets by product or benefit to maintain clear targeting.
- Use diverse creatives and copy variations to build a natural funnel.
- Avoid frequent changes to campaigns or bids; focus on creative quality to improve performance.
- Align ad launches with offers or EDMs to maximize demand and spend.
