Claude Has Officially Changed Facebook Ads Forever (And Nobody's Talking About It) — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00Meta just officially upgraded its Ads
- 0:02MCP and the changes are absolutely
- 0:04mind-blowing. You can now connect Claude
- 0:06directly to your Meta Ad account and
- 0:07tell it to analyze your performance,
- 0:09chart your data, build reports, identify
- 0:12winning ads, and create AI-generated
- 0:14variants, as well as launch new
- 0:16campaigns automatically and schedule
- 0:18fresh creative every single week for
- 0:20you, and manage your entire ad account
- 0:22directly from your phone. This is not
- 0:23just another Meta update. It is the
- 0:25beginning of AI agents running your
- 0:27entire advertising operation. Media
- 0:29buying just changed forever and here's
- 0:31exactly how it works. So, first we're
- 0:33going to be going through capabilities
- 0:35on how this works and then we're going
- 0:36to show you exactly how to set it up and
- 0:38I'm going to walk through live examples
- 0:40of how we're using this right now. So,
- 0:42to understand what the Meta MCP is, you
- 0:43can directly integrate it with Claude
- 0:45and Claude will become your central
- 0:47terminal for how you manage everything.
- 0:49Quite literally, you can connect the
- 0:51Meta Ad account and analyze your data.
- 0:53You can see what winning ads are
- 0:54performing and have AI-generated images
- 0:57literally launched all from the exact
- 0:59same terminal. You can have all of your
- 1:00briefs and reports from your past
- 1:02company history accessible as well,
- 1:05including your files, your Slack
- 1:06communication, and it has all of the
- 1:09knowledge and information centralized in
- 1:11one place. So, whatever you ask, it is
- 1:14able to do. So, whenever you create the
- 1:15creatives, you can have 100 assets be
- 1:18moved into a cloud storage and then auto
- 1:20time release based off of a weekly
- 1:22creative refresh cadence. Meaning, we
- 1:24have ads that we need to launch every
- 1:25week, we find our winners, we iterate on
- 1:27them with AI, we plug them into a
- 1:29storage and then it pulls from that and
- 1:31launches them every week, so that way we
- 1:33never have to worry about launching
- 1:34creatives again. It's absolutely insane
- 1:36to think about and all of your brand
- 1:37assets may be on your computer and drive
- 1:39and all these different places. Well, it
- 1:41has access to all of this stuff as well.
- 1:43And all of these scripts, you can
- 1:44transcribe literally all of the UGC
- 1:46videos that have converted for you and
- 1:48it can have access to that to know
- 1:49exactly how to write going forward. This
- 1:51is not just a regular update. This is a
- 1:53completely different new game for how
- 1:55we're going to be doing ads going
- 1:57forward. And it covers everything from
- 1:58like literally doing creatives,
- 2:00competitor research, launching your
- 2:01audiences for you, analyzing the data,
- 2:03adjusting your pixel, your reporting,
- 2:06connecting your catalogs, doing admin
- 2:08stuff, analyzing DMs, going through
- 2:10workflows, setting up the campaigns for
- 2:12you, and doing all of the testing all
- 2:14from this video. So, let's break down
- 2:15exactly how this entire flow works by
- 2:18first setting it up. In order to manage
- 2:20ads with the AI agent, what we're going
- 2:21to do is we're going to scroll down here
- 2:23and copy this link for the MCP. And
- 2:25everything we're going to be going
- 2:26through is linked below this video. So,
- 2:28we'll copy this link, and we'll come in
- 2:30here, and we'll click on the plus sign.
- 2:31We'll go to connectors. And the first
- 2:33step is you're going to want to make
- 2:34sure you obviously have Claude
- 2:36downloaded on your computer so that way
- 2:38you can do this. And one of the first
- 2:40steps is we're going to copy that link.
- 2:42We're going to come in here and click
- 2:43the plus sign, go to connectors, manage
- 2:45connections, and we're going to hit add.
- 2:47We're going to add a custom connector.
- 2:48We'll paste this, and we'll name it Meta
- 2:50MCP. And then we'll just hit add. It
- 2:52will then automatically connect the Meta
- 2:54MCP. And then, if we want to do AI
- 2:56creatives, we're also going to connect
- 2:58the Higgsfield MCP, which I've linked
- 3:00below this video so you can copy and
- 3:01paste that. And any other connectors
- 3:03that you want to have access to
- 3:04throughout this process, you can connect
- 3:06everything. Whether it's Drive, your
- 3:07emails, your Slack channels, whatever it
- 3:09is, any source of information you want
- 3:11so that way Claude has access to
- 3:13everything and has all of the
- 3:14capabilities and understanding of your
- 3:16business, you would connect it through
- 3:17the MCPs here. So, the first thing we
- 3:19can have it do is analyze our ad account
- 3:21data. So, I could say, "Hey, pull open
- 3:23the Happy Dad ad account analyze the
- 3:25last 180 day of click-through rates, our
- 3:27purchases, our return on ad spend, and
- 3:30give me a graph of that data." And then
- 3:32I just hit enter, and it's going to go
- 3:34through and connect to our ad account
- 3:35automatically and pull this data for us.
- 3:38And then we can start to analyze it and
- 3:39find out what winning ads we have and
- 3:41start to begin to create new creatives.
- 3:43So, let's go through this process. All
- 3:45right, so now we have all of our data in
- 3:46here, and it just compiled our
- 3:48performance report over the last 180
- 3:50days. And as you can see, we spent
- 3:52$102,000
- 3:54and got 5,539 purchases at a 3.2 x ROAS
- 3:58with a 0.68 click-through rate. [music]
- 4:00And this is pretty insane what it's
- 4:02already done. It's broken down all of
- 4:03our graphs here. So, we can actually see
- 4:05our click-through rate over time, our
- 4:06purchase volume, our purchase return in
- 4:09ad spend, and our amount spent. As you
- 4:10can see, our spend has dramatically been
- 4:12rising over the last couple of months
- 4:14here, and our purchase return in ad
- 4:16spend has actually been dropping. As
- 4:17well as our purchase volume has been
- 4:19going up with that additional spend, and
- 4:21that is all due to the scale up that the
- 4:22reporting is from. And we can even see a
- 4:25breakdown of like what's above average,
- 4:27which is our spend to ROAS calculations.
- 4:30We have a good return in ad spend here
- 4:32based off of our margins. And this one's
- 4:33a little bit below average. And you can
- 4:35see creative testing is doing really
- 4:36well, so that could be an indicator that
- 4:38we need to rotate those creatives over
- 4:40to our other campaigns. And we have a
- 4:42table view of the breakdown by week, so
- 4:44that way we can see as soon as we
- 4:46throttled up spend from about the 1 to
- 4:487K a week range to the 15 to 17,000 a
- 4:51week range, our ROAS has dropped
- 4:53significantly. Now, when looking at this
- 4:55report, when we scaled our spend by 20 x
- 4:57efficiency did not come with it as what
- 5:00Claude is concluding. But what's
- 5:01interesting to me is I would like to
- 5:03know more information as to why this
- 5:05could be the case. So, I'm going to ask
- 5:07it include a chart with the volume of
- 5:11creatives launched over the same time
- 5:13period, so that way I can see how many
- 5:15creatives we've been launching alongside
- 5:17all of the increase in spend. I want to
- 5:20understand the ratio of creatives
- 5:21launched to the spend levels to see if
- 5:24that is holding. So, the reason I'm
- 5:26asking it that is because although we
- 5:27raise spend, ROAS drops. That's a pretty
- 5:29normal thing that happens when you raise
- 5:31spend. But if you don't keep up with
- 5:33your creative volume as you scale that
- 5:35spend, sometimes your ROAS drops even
- 5:37more significantly. So, I want to see if
- 5:39our ratio of creatives launched over
- 5:41that same time period is staying up to
- 5:43par with the amount of spend we're
- 5:45driving up. Because this will give me
- 5:47even more insights into understanding
- 5:49exactly what the true reason is for how
- 5:52we can get our ROAS up along with our
- 5:54spin rising. All right, so now Claude
- 5:56has given us our updated report with the
- 5:58creative to spin ratio. And as we can
- 6:01see, it's saying that creative output
- 6:02tracked the spin ramp closely through
- 6:04June, and front-loaded 93 new ads in May
- 6:07while spin was still under 3.6k, then
- 6:09pushed 153 ads in June as spin hit 27k.
- 6:13In July, stopped launches went up only
- 6:1510% while spin rose more than 131%.
- 6:19So you can see that the creative volume
- 6:21is actually going down as spin was going
- 6:24up, which is a high indicator that ROAS
- 6:26is not going to hold. As you rapidly
- 6:27raise your spin, you need creative
- 6:29volume with that. And so when we look at
- 6:31this, we have our spin levels rising
- 6:33significantly, and we're front-loading
- 6:35these creatives as we scale spin, which
- 6:37is good because our ROAS is still
- 6:39holding at a 5.8. And we have all these
- 6:41creatives backing it. We continue to
- 6:43launch roughly around the same number of
- 6:45creatives, but we double our spend again
- 6:48going to 2.5.
- 6:50And as spin continues to rise, our
- 6:52creative volume is actually dying down.
- 6:54So our ROAS is decreasing, our creative
- 6:57volume is not staying up to par with how
- 6:59much we're raising spend. So this tells
- 7:01us that we have not only a creative
- 7:03issue, but a creative volume issue in
- 7:06terms of how many creatives we actually
- 7:08need to launch to keep up with the
- 7:10additional spin levels so we can further
- 7:11optimize this. Now there's going to be
- 7:13other things like rotating budgets,
- 7:15increasing what's working, and
- 7:16optimizing, but just looking at this on
- 7:19a creative launch schedule in the ratios
- 7:21and how the ratio's actually decreasing
- 7:23as we're raising spend, we need to
- 7:25launch more creatives. So we can ask it
- 7:27to, "Now I want you to pull a report of
- 7:29the top three ads that are generating
- 7:31the most amount of sales with the
- 7:33highest amount of spend and the highest
- 7:34return in ad spend, and show me what
- 7:36those three creatives are." So I'm now
- 7:38asking it to pull our top three
- 7:39creatives because I want to see which
- 7:41ones are performing best, but I also
- 7:43want to know, not just based off of
- 7:44ROAS, but which creatives are actually
- 7:45handling the most amount of spend with
- 7:47the highest purchase volume because the
- 7:49weighted value of that means more to me
- 7:51than just an ad that has five purchases
- 7:53and a 50x ROAS. I care about the ad that
- 7:55has 5,000 purchases at a 4x ROAS because
- 7:58that means it can handle spend [music]
- 8:00and hold its return on ad spend. All
- 8:02right, so now let's pull the creative
- 8:03report for our top ads where we spent
- 8:05$6,000 and made back $33,000. Pretty
- 8:08good click-through rate, average cost
- 8:10per purchase is nice at a 5x. Same thing
- 8:12here, 5x return on ad spend. All of
- 8:14these are stellar creatives. They have
- 8:15good spend volume, great purchase
- 8:17volume, and same thing down here. It
- 8:19even breaks it down by style of creative
- 8:22as well as the additional spend where we
- 8:24spent 3K to make 22K back, which is
- 8:26stellar. And then we have our preview
- 8:28cards. So, we can see our exact ad
- 8:30creative and we can preview which ones
- 8:32are working. So, this is a carousel.
- 8:34This one is a headline with a product
- 8:36feature-based ad. And then we have our
- 8:37offer led, which is just a standard
- 8:39carousel. And so, now that we know what
- 8:41creatives are working, we can also go
- 8:43ahead and have it create variations. And
- 8:45this is where we can get into the part
- 8:47to where we have AI, literally make AI
- 8:49creative versions of our best-performing
- 8:51ads. So, go ahead and make an AI
- 8:53creative now based off of the card one
- 8:56and card two image as well as preview C
- 8:59image. Go ahead and create new ads using
- 9:02Higgsfield so that way we can make
- 9:04iterations of these best-performing ads.
- 9:07Now, we just ask it to literally go
- 9:08create the content for us all in one
- 9:10place. We don't have to bounce between
- 9:12tools. We don't have to analyze our ad
- 9:13account. We literally have everything we
- 9:15need right here. And what's going to
- 9:17happen is it's going to now connect at
- 9:19Higgsfield and make the creatives. It's
- 9:21pretty crazy because we have the data,
- 9:23the creatives, and everything all
- 9:24pairing in one central source. And here
- 9:26we go, we already have back some of our
- 9:28creatives. We have the exact hat from
- 9:31that original image as I showed you
- 9:33earlier. This is a new variation in that
- 9:35same exact street style, which was
- 9:37converting like crazy at a 5x return ad
- 9:39spend. This is absolutely incredible,
- 9:41the styling and how well it actually
- 9:44designed this. This is This is crazy.
- 9:46Here's another one, which is like in a
- 9:47Cali, you know, boulevard here on the
- 9:50beach. Another one of holding the hat.
- 9:51This right here, this style of hat would
- 9:53absolutely crush it. You could even
- 9:54include a headline on this. These like
- 9:57one single shot images do wonders. Like
- 9:59we could launch that in the ad account
- 10:00from Claude right here and easily get a
- 10:035x on return ad spend just off these
- 10:05additional creatives. Like these aren't
- 10:06even real people. This is just like
- 10:07reshot. This is a nighttime base scene.
- 10:10Like we know nighttime base scenes work
- 10:11extremely well in retargeting because
- 10:13when people are at home at night, they
- 10:15see this and it pairs well with the
- 10:17actual relevance of what's going on.
- 10:18It's vibey and it's just honestly
- 10:21mind-blowing how good these creatives
- 10:22are. Not only that, but if we want to
- 10:23take this image and turn it into a
- 10:25video, we just press animate and it'll
- 10:27automatically animate that into a video
- 10:28of them like holding the hat, taking it
- 10:30off, moving it around, and now we have
- 10:32video assets. So here are four creatives
- 10:34we can quite literally just launch into
- 10:36a carousel and start running right away.
- 10:38And that is an ad style that has spent
- 10:40roughly 6K to make back $40,000, and now
- 10:42we have another ad just like it that can
- 10:44absolutely crush. It's honestly
- 10:46incredible how amazing this new update
- 10:48is. And here's the video asset that it
- 10:50generated. It's just a slow camera pan
- 10:52zoomed in on this. We can splice this
- 10:55into a longer form UGC video. We can use
- 10:57this asset. We can add text to it. This
- 10:59is just an example of truly what this
- 11:01thing can do. Like any video asset, any
- 11:04UGC, we can turn this into a creator
- 11:06walking down the boulevard talking about
- 11:08the hat or just like being in a scene
- 11:10and literally have a fully edited video
- 11:12to launch into meta ads. Now write five
- 11:15primary text and five headlines based
- 11:18off of our winning ad copy. And now I'm
- 11:21just going to have it write ad copy
- 11:22based off of what's been proven in the
- 11:23past so that way we can have all of our
- 11:25assets from our video and the carousel
- 11:28that we just put together. All All so
- 11:30now let's put together our top headlines
- 11:32based off of our actual results. Sold
- 11:35out, one's back now, back in stock,
- 11:37won't last, and our collab-based
- 11:40headlines, as well as our actual ad copy
- 11:42for the text. And I can tell it to now
- 11:46draft this as an ad creative carousel
- 11:48with the four images you created with
- 11:50all of the text inside of our ads
- 11:52manager. And what it's going to do is
- 11:53it's going to literally go draft this in
- 11:55our ads manager, and we can even have a
- 11:56Claude publish it here if we wanted to
- 11:58and launch it into creative testing. And
- 12:01then what we can do is on a weekly
- 12:02basis, we can actually have this
- 12:04automatically run based off of our top
- 12:06winning ad formats that we launch and
- 12:07have it automatically create winning
- 12:09formats, put them in drive, and then put
- 12:11it on an auto scheduler to launch them
- 12:13every single week into creative testing.
- 12:14So that way we literally no longer have
- 12:16to worry about making creatives every
- 12:17week. We can have an AI automation
- 12:18system quite literally analyzing our
- 12:20account, dropping creatives, making
- 12:22them, and launching them in our ad
- 12:23account regularly. There's literally no
- 12:25excuse to be launching ads anymore. And
- 12:27now what it's doing is it's creating
- 12:28this ad in the ad account. Once again,
- 12:30you don't have to do anything manually.
- 12:31You can be on your phone. You could have
- 12:33an idea walking down the street. You
- 12:34could be in your car and using voice,
- 12:36talking to this thing. It's honestly
- 12:37shocking what the capabilities are of
- 12:39this latest update. I don't think people
- 12:41realize that you no longer really have
- 12:42to do anything. You can just talk to
- 12:43this all day and run your entire ad
- 12:45account from wherever you are in the
- 12:46world.
- 12:49And here's just a few of the workflows.
- 12:50You can connect the MCP to Meta, analyze
- 12:52your ad account data, find out where
- 12:53your winning ad images and videos are,
- 12:55generate AI images, and automatically
- 12:58upload those into your ads manager, and
- 13:00find out what creatives are working from
- 13:01that, and repeat this process. You can
- 13:03also take the winning videos, design
- 13:05briefs around those, generate UGC
- 13:08videos, and even send new briefs to real
- 13:10creators, or just have your in-house
- 13:12staff make the AI version of those
- 13:14videos. And once again, the workflow
- 13:16repeats. The other ways to do this is
- 13:18using ads reporting, communicating with
- 13:20your team members on a weekly cadence,
- 13:21and even automating some of this
- 13:23creative process, as well as like
- 13:25actually optimizing, syncing up your
- 13:27Shopify to tweak your landing pages,
- 13:29conversion rates, find out what
- 13:30creatives are working on TikTok Shop,
- 13:32and designing briefs for UGC AI videos
- 13:34for Meta. You can connect your Amazon,
- 13:37TikTok Shop, and Shopify data, so that
- 13:39way you can cross-reference attribution
- 13:41and see what's truly working and report
- 13:42on that, as well as measure your
- 13:44conversion rates, AOV's, and figure out
- 13:46exactly what's holding your ads back on
- 13:48your actual Shopify store and Meta ad
- 13:50campaigns, all inside one central
- 13:52location. This tool is absolutely insane
- 13:54and the capabilities you can do. So, I
- 13:56highly recommend setting this up and let
- 13:57me know what you think in the comments.
- 13:59Are we doomed with AI agents or is this
- 14:01the new frontier for being able to scale
- 14:03a business? And Meta is constantly
- 14:05updating their MCP to allow faster and
- 14:08more autonomous workflows. The issue is
- 14:10that even if you automate your ad
- 14:11account, that won't be enough to just
- 14:13scale your brand. That's why I put
- 14:14together this video here to break down
- 14:16the exact strategy we're using to 2x,
- 14:185x, even 10x our client brands. So, I'll
- 14:20see you in the next video.
