| 6/3/26 | Can AI Actually Make You a Better Advertiser? | Today's question is about how advertisers should approach AI tools like Claude's new connection to Meta ads. AI has enormous potential for creative development, but it's not a replacement for knowledge. Jon explains why advertisers without a strong foundation will just execute bad strategies faster, why creative is the most promising use case, and why treating AI automation as a magic pill is the biggest risk right now.

| 6/1/26 | The Mistakes I See in Almost Every Ad Account | Struggling ad accounts keep making the same mistakes, from undefined audience segments and unnecessary remarketing to inflated conversion results and overcomplicated campaign structures. Jon explains the most common problems he sees when auditing accounts, why each one reflects a misunderstanding of how Meta's algorithm works, and how to fix them. | — | ||||||
| 5/27/26 | Is That New Meta Feature Worth the Risk? | Today's question is about how to decide when new Meta features like push delivery or AI platform connectors are worth testing. New features carry risk because there's no track record for effectiveness or problems to watch for. Jon explains why your appetite for risk matters most, why you should only experiment when you have a specific problem to solve rather than tinkering when results are already good, and why AI connectors in particular warrant extra caution until the risks are better understood.

| 5/25/26 | Stop Tinkering with Things That Don't Matter | Advertisers fixate on delivery details like which ads Meta shows, placement distribution, or age skews, but rarely ask the most important question: is this actually a problem tied to bad results? Obsessing over inconsequential quirks almost always leads to unproductive tinkering that destroys consistency. Jon explains why you need to separate real delivery problems from gut-feeling complaints, why micromanaging Meta's optimization usually makes things worse, and how to know when a quirk in delivery actually matters versus when you need to step back and let Meta work. | — | ||||||
| 5/20/26 | Is Meta Spending Too Much on One Ad? | Today's question is about what to do when one ad takes 50% of your budget and performance starts declining over time. Jon explains why uneven budget distribution isn't necessarily a problem, how push delivery can test whether Meta's allocation is correct, and why creating new and uniquely different ads is almost always the real solution over micromanaging which ads get spend.

| 5/18/26 | Change Will Always Be Your Biggest Problem | The biggest challenge in Meta advertising isn't any single feature or update, it's the relentless pace of change that makes best practices obsolete within months. Jon explains why he stopped creating training courses after producing two that became immediately irrelevant, how he built an ad briefs library that stays current by pulling from his most recent content, and why solving the shelf-life problem led him to rethink how he delivers value to his community entirely. | — | ||||||
| 5/13/26 | Should You Use a Funnel for High Ticket Products? | Today's question is about the right funnel strategy for high-ticket consumer products on Meta. Cheaper leads don't automatically mean cheaper conversions, and a small discount may attract the wrong people while missing buyers who would purchase without one. Jon explains why optimizing straight for the purchase should always be tested first, why a tightly connected lead magnet beats a generic discount as a funnel entry point, and when remarketing is still worth using for high-ticket products.

| 5/11/26 | You're Probably Not Wasting Money on Ads | Advertisers are quick to shut off ads when results look bad, but poor short-term performance isn't the same as wasted budget. New businesses and first-time advertisers are building awareness and data even when early numbers look awful. Jon explains why overreacting to initial results is usually a mistake, when you're actually wasting money through high volumes of junk traffic or mismatched demographics, and how to diagnose and fix those problems before they spiral. | — | ||||||
| 5/6/26 | Does Adding More Ads Actually Hurt Performance? | Today's question is about whether adding too many ads to a single ad set can actually hurt delivery. Meta removed its old recommendation of no more than six ads per ad set, but that doesn't mean more is always better. Jon explains why starting small with a couple of creatively diverse ads and adding more only when needed is the smarter approach, why the delivery algorithm may get lost when it has too many options for the budget, and why pruning ads that Meta rarely shows should be part of your troubleshooting when results decline.

| 5/4/26 | Don't Get Attached to Your Ad Process | Two new features are changing how Jon creates ads. Push delivery lets you force spend to any existing ad to get answers, eliminating the need to start every new ad with a creative test. And the new creative workflow lets you combine multiple images and videos into a single ad with customizable text and URLs per creative, consolidating what used to require dozens of separate ads. Jon explains why both features make his previous process obsolete and why tying yourself to any single approach guarantees you'll fall behind. | — | ||||||

| 4/29/26 | Are You Setting Up Client Access the Wrong Way? | Today's question is about the recommended structure and access levels between a client and agency when onboarding. Setting this up incorrectly can lead to serious problems, including getting accounts banned. Jon explains why the client should own all of their own assets and add your agency as a partner rather than a person, what access levels to grant for each asset, and why sharing login credentials or creating assets under the agency's business manager leads to problems when the relationship eventually ends.

| 4/27/26 | Why Meta Keeps Pushing Value Rules | Meta has spent years removing advertiser control over targeting and placements, so actively encouraging value rules seemed contradictory. But it makes sense when you see where things are headed. Jon explains how a new test version lets you bid based on custom audience labels for lead quality and customer value, why value rules fill a knowledge gap the algorithm can't solve alone, and why they'll replace traditional delivery controls as Meta locks everything else down. | — | ||||||
| 4/22/26 | How Do You Reach Only New Customers? | Today's question is about whether to exclude existing customers from your ads when you want to acquire new ones, and how to do it. Meta retargets existing customers by default, which isn't automatically a problem because those people convert easily and keep your costs down, but it can mask real performance or lower your average order value. Jon explains why you need to confirm there's an actual problem before excluding anyone, how to use website and customer list custom audiences together since each is imperfect on its own, and why new features like customer lifecycle strategy and value rules for existing customers could change the approach entirely.

| 4/20/26 | Your Excuses Are Holding Back Your Results | Advertisers love to blame Meta when results tank, pointing to outages, Advantage+ enhancements, and automated settings as proof the platform is out to get them. There's a little truth in every complaint, which is exactly why they spread, but they're also excuses that keep you from finding actual solutions. Jon explains why blaming Meta makes you look like an amateur to clients, how to troubleshoot performance drops by using breakdowns to isolate the real cause, and why the answer is almost always something within your control, usually the ads themselves. | — | ||||||
| 4/15/26 | Do You Need to Warm Up a New Ad Account? | Today's question is about whether a brand new ad account, Facebook page, and pixel need any special treatment before running sales campaigns. Conventional wisdom says to build followers first, run awareness campaigns, or season the pixel with top-of-funnel activity. Jon explains why these recommendations are nonsense and often counterproductive, how building low-quality engagement early can poison your remarketing audiences, and why optimizing for purchases or leads from day one is the fastest path to real results.

| 4/13/26 | Stop Hiding Your Ad Account from Clients | Agencies that hide ad accounts from clients claim their campaign setup is proprietary, but modern best practices mean minimal campaigns and simplified structures that aren't worth hiding. The real value an advertiser brings isn't something a client can copy by looking at your settings. Jon explains why hiding your work destroys trust, why the fear of being replaced means you need to rethink where you add value, and why using the client's own ad account and assets is better for everyone. | — | ||||||
| 4/8/26 | Can Your Audience Be Too Niche for Meta Ads? | Today's question is about whether a niche B2B audience can be too small for Meta ads to work effectively. Any business with a large enough real-world market to be profitable has an audience on Facebook and Instagram, so the issue isn't reach. The real question is whether Meta advertising will be worthwhile. Jon explains why no business is technically too niche for Meta, how success depends on creative, offer, lead qualification, and follow-up rather than targeting, and why the cost and quality of leads compared to their overall value is what determines if it's worth it.

| 4/6/26 | Social Proof Might Not Matter After All | Advertisers assume ads with thousands of comments and reactions perform better due to social proof, and fear making edits that would erase that engagement. But Jon duplicated an ad with 6,000 comments and the new version starting from scratch immediately matched and even beat the original's performance. He explains why we might be overvaluing social proof and why the content of your ad matters more than engagement signals. | — | ||||||
| 4/1/26 | Does a Higher CPM Mean You Should Spend More? | Today's question is about CPM being double in the US versus the UK and whether that means you should allocate double the budget. CPM varies by country due to competition, but higher CPM doesn't automatically mean worse performance. Jon explains when to combine countries versus split them, how Meta balances costs and conversion rates, and why you should let results guide your budget allocation instead of CPM alone.

| 3/30/26 | What Meta Isn't Telling You About Your Creative | Meta provides no transparency about which specific images or videos perform best when using flexible format, related media, or AI generated creative. Breakdowns exist but share almost no useful detail. Jon explains why this lack of transparency is intentional at this point, why it matters for creative teams who need feedback, and why Meta needs to share this information despite the risk of advertisers misusing it. | — | ||||||
| 3/25/26 | How Do You Advertise Products with Long Buying Cycles? | Today's question is about advertising expensive products with long buying cycles that fall outside the seven or 28 day attribution window. Should you run traffic campaigns instead of purchase campaigns if most conversions won't be tracked anyway? Jon explains why you need to confirm this is actually happening, how multiple ads for different awareness levels can keep conversions within windows, and when to consider alternative approaches.

| 3/23/26 | Meta's Conversion Reporting Is Not the Problem | Advertisers claim Meta steals credit for conversions that were actually driven by email or Google, calling conversion reporting vanity metrics. But attribution is messy and trying to assign single-source credit misses the point entirely. Jon explains what different conversion types actually mean, why obsessing over credit is foolish, and how effective campaigns require multiple channels working together where shared credit matters more than exclusive credit. | — | ||||||
| 3/18/26 | What Do Most Advertisers Get Wrong About Meta Ads? | Today's question is about the single most common point of confusion Jon wishes everyone understood about Meta ads. He can't pick just one, so he gives three. Jon explains why the algorithm being literal shapes everything, why targeting control is mostly unnecessary now, and where advertisers should actually focus when results aren't good.

| 3/16/26 | Click Attribution Isn't What It Used to Be | Meta changed how click attribution works, and it's mostly for the better, but some advertisers might see a negative impact. Click-through conversions now require an actual link click, while social clicks and other engagement moved to a new engage-through attribution with a shorter window. Jon explains what changed, why some conversions will be lost, and which strategy gets hit hardest by the update. | — | ||||||
| 3/11/26 | Should You Start New Campaigns with Creative Testing? | Today's question is whether to launch a brand new campaign with creative testing or start testing later with new creatives. There's no absolute right answer, but Jon has a preferred approach with clear reasoning behind it. He explains why starting new ads with a test answers questions you'll have later, avoids the messy workaround of duplicating existing ads, and ensures you get meaningful data from the start.
