Meta's latest update wasn’t just noise. Pilothouse strategist Taylor Cain breaks down how Andromeda’s smarter delivery system let them consolidate campaigns, increase CTRs, and scale cleaner than ever this BFCM.


For CMOs optimizing Meta spend across brands or business units...

  • 30% YoY CTR lift through creative-persona alignment + fewer campaigns
  • Why campaign consolidation is outperforming classic testing structures
  • Partnership ads: how Pilothouse uses Meta’s dynamic features to drive both reach + retargeting
  • How to rethink frequency, offer alignment, and creative iterations mid-campaign
  • What MTA tools like Triple Whale unlocked when real-time tracking mattered most


Who this is for: CMOs, paid media directors, and growth leads navigating platform complexity


What to steal:

  • Test in your best campaign, not in isolation (if the creative is ready)
  • Meme-style statics backed by real offers = full-funnel magic
  • Let performance inform your campaign segmentation — not the other way around
