Winning Patterns
Pattern ROAS Ads Signal Quality
TNT · STA · URG angle — Back-in-stock / restock framing 2.50x avg BackInStock-v1 (3.15x), v2 (1.91x), Restock SNT (2.45x early) Consistent across 3 ads, 2 formats. Clearest breakout of the period. Brief variations now while window is open.
BTO · PRT · AUT angle — Authentic creator review (BiswasTiwari) 2.66x BiswasTiwari-BTO-v1 Single creator, decaying (3.57x → 2.66x). Test second creator with similar style to confirm format vs creator-specific signal.
BTO+LOY · STA · CMP angle — Combo offer comparison 2.01x HottestPerfumeDeal (2.01x), Buy2for2499 ITERATE (1.58x) Decaying — both ads down from prior period. Mechanic still works; hooks need refresh.
FND-format engagement signal — Founder explains (multiple angles) No purchases yet FoundersAMA (Hook 32%), LongevitySecret (CTR 2.34%) Two new founder-led ads with exceptional engagement. Purchase data pending. If they convert, FND becomes the second proven format.
SKT format (new) — Skit / surprise framing No purchases yet AiimsCheapDupes (Hook 47.7%) Strongest hook ever observed in this account. 1 day live, ₹658 spend. Validate at threshold before drawing conclusions.
SCP format — confirmed dead 0.65x avg CityGuess (paused, 0.52x), Exchange (0.92x), CharacterGuess (no spend) ~₹6.7k tested across 3 ads. No path to viability. Do not brief more SCP. Already dead.
BTO solo at full price — Single-product pages 1.0x avg GoodSummerFragrance PAUSE, LowStock PAUSE, ProjDysfunction (paused), LikeAnOcean (paused) Multiple ads, multiple angles, all leak at the post-click step. The problem is the product page / price point — not creative. BTO works only as a combo.
Data Flags
9 May data is partial — that day's spend cycle is incomplete. Exclude from single-day comparisons.
Demographic-breakdown rows have funnel double-counting in ATC and Checkout columns. Account-level totals (302 ATC, 253 Checkouts) used throughout.
Checkout → Purchase rate has worsened from 27% (last period) to 24.5% — the non-creative leak is widening. Outside Don Draper's scope but flagged for landing-page / payment-friction review.
AiimsCheapDupes is 1 day live. The 47.7% Hook is exceptional but small sample — verify pattern holds at ₹1,600+ spend before treating it as a proven format.
VacationScent (5.50x ROAS on ₹309) and List-of-Pros-Loyal-Copy2 (13.44x on ₹186) — both statistically meaningless at this spend. Excluded from verdicts.
SNT format is new in active portfolio (Restock-v1, AMAObsessedNotes). Treat early ROAS readings as preliminary until format-level baseline is established.
