Creative Testing at Volume
Systematic testing of multiple creative concepts, since Meta's algorithm rewards enough variety to find winners efficiently.
META ADS

WHY META ADS NEEDS FRESH APPROACH
Why Old Meta Ads Tactics Stopped Working
Meta's algorithm has shifted heavily toward automation and broad targeting, which means detailed manual audience building matters less than it used to, while creative quality and volume now matter significantly more. A lot of agencies are still running 2019 style Meta ads playbooks against a 2026 algorithm. Sash builds campaigns around how Meta's advertising system actually works today, which looks meaningfully different than it did even two years ago. Catalog and pixel health issues are found in the majority of new Meta ads accounts we audit, quietly limiting the algorithm's ability to optimize effectively regardless of budget or creative quality.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions.
Do you manage both Facebook and Instagram placements?
Yes, both are managed together as part of one coordinated Meta ads strategy.
How much new creative do we need to produce regularly?
This varies by budget and account size, but consistent creative refresh is a core part of maintaining performance on Meta's current algorithm.
Do you produce the creative or just manage the campaigns?
We can produce creative directly or work with your existing creative team, depending on what fits your setup best.
What if our pixel or catalog setup has issues?
This gets identified and fixed as a priority first step, since the algorithm cannot optimize effectively on inaccurate data.
How is this different from Google Shopping ads management?
Meta's algorithm and audience behavior differ significantly from Google's, requiring distinct creative and targeting strategy even for the same product catalog.
Do you handle influencer or creator partnerships as well?
This can be scoped separately alongside paid Meta ads for brands looking to combine organic and paid creator content.
How quickly can performance improve after an account audit?
Data and tracking fixes can show impact within a couple of weeks, with creative testing gains building over the following month or two.
Do you handle Meta ads for both prospecting and retention campaigns?
Yes, both are managed together as part of one coordinated Meta strategy across the full customer lifecycle.
What creative formats perform best on Meta right now?
Short form video and native feeling static ads both perform well currently, though the best format depends on your specific product and audience.
How does Meta ads combine with other Sash services?
It is commonly paired with adjacent SEO, paid, or development work, coordinated under one team rather than run as an isolated engagement.
What does reporting look like month to month?
A clear report tied to the metrics that actually matter for this specific service, reviewed together on a regular call rather than left as an email attachment nobody opens.
Can we start smaller and expand scope later?
Yes. Many engagements start focused on one priority area and expand once results build trust and budget allows.
