Meta’s auction is a probabilistic forecasting engine. Treat it that way and your creative testing stops being guesswork. In this episode, Andrew lays out a first-principles framework for Meta Ads that resolves three tensions operators hit every day:

Consolidation: why “more purchases per ad set” increases model confidence, stabilizes delivery, and compounds performance over time.

Creative supply: how to increase diverse creative volume (not near-duplicates) without kicking high-performing ad sets back into volatility.

False negatives: when Meta gives up too early—and practical ways to limit misses without torching budget.

You’ll leave with a clear mental model for structuring campaigns, setting bid strategies (including when manual bids help and why), deciding ad-per-ad-set counts, and preventing “learning phase” churn.

If margin pressure, inconsistent scaling, or noisy tests are blocking growth, this is a rigorous, operator-grade way to diagnose the system and deploy creative testing that actually compounds.

What you’ll learn:

- The ad-set level is where learning really happens—and how to leverage that

- Why consolidating conversions beats scattering them across many ad sets

- How to design creative pipelines that maximize diversity and minimize redundancy

- Practical safeguards to reduce false negatives without sunk-cost waste

- A simple deployment pattern to add new ads without disrupting scale

- Listen to sharpen your testing strategy and reclaim wasted spend with a framework you can apply this quarter.
