Meta ads aren't a copy-paste game. What works brilliantly for one e-commerce brand can be a complete disaster for another - even within the same niche.
In this episode of Ad Spend Secrets, Luke Smith breaks down two real client scenarios.
Scenarios where conventional Meta ads strategies, and standard eCommerce Facebook ads, would have led to wasted ad spend and poor results (and how custom solutions created success instead.
The first case - the product required extra education that generic Meta advertising formats simply couldn’t provide.
The second case - sending traffic directly to the product page actually hurt conversions compared to directing visitors to the homepage first.
In fact, for many baby product marketing campaigns, homepage-first strategies can better educate visitors and reduce friction in the buying process, especially on mobile.
These examples reveal why understanding your product's education requirements, optimising your ad creatives for unique products, and mapping the customer journey correctly is far more effective than blindly following Facebook ad best practices.
Luke also shares how a simple landing page optimisation for kids' brands resulted in immediate sales within five hours for one business owner - proving how even small changes in your Meta ads targeting strategies can drastically improve results for parenting brands.
