Working together
Questions about working together.
How many creative variants does 9AM typically test before scaling a winner?
We typically test several concepts with multiple variations of each, though the exact volume depends on the audience, campaign budget, and objective. Once two or three variants deliver consistent results across sufficient spend and conversion volume, we begin scaling while continuing to test new concepts.
Which ad variables does your team typically test?
We usually isolate one variable at a time so the results remain clear. Depending on the campaign, we may test the opening hook, messaging angle, offer, call to action, visual style, creator, video length, or ad format to identify which element has the strongest impact.
How often do you refresh creative to maintain performance?
We usually review creative performance weekly and introduce new assets every two to four weeks, depending on spend, audience size, and campaign velocity. If frequency rises, click-through rate drops, or acquisition costs increase sooner, we refresh assets earlier.
What performance signals determine whether an ad should be scaled, revised, or retired?
Our team evaluates each ad against its campaign objective using metrics such as click-through rate, conversion rate, cost per acquisition, return on ad spend, and engagement. Consistent results may support additional budget, mixed results may call for revisions, and sustained declines usually signal that the ad should be retired.
