CBO or ABO in real estate 10 day free trial?
Hi everyone, i recently got a real estate client in US for a 10 day trial, to get the most amount of leads for these 10 days should i do cbo or abo? I've tried cbo in the past but it sucked, it ended up spending all the money on a looser ad and and completely ignored other ads. The reason i'm in this dilemma is that i've seen Liam recommend CBO but i don't know how to structure CBO properly in housing ad category

Hi @Sifat Ullah Khan At $30 a day, I’d keep it simple: 1 ad set with 3 to 4 ads, each with one creative. Don’t split it into multiple ad sets unless you’re testing different audiences. This gives Meta more budget to optimize while letting you see which creative gets the best results.

@Sifat Ullah Khan I’d give each ad about 1 to 1.5x your target CPL before killing it. So if your target CPL is $50, let it spend around $50 to $75 with no lead before you shut it off. If it’s clearly getting shit traffic or no engagement, kill it sooner. Don’t keep changing ads every few hours, give them enough spend to actually tell you something, then replace the losers with new creatives.
Owner/CEO, BarkingDog.shop
Hey everyone, this is my first retail store in Shopify called BarkingDog.shop. I want to learn all about social media (I am a newbie) and hope to provide feedback to the community as we move forward. My initial interest is working organic ads first using Video's and fun pics as we represent all things dogs...From Hats, Ts and Baby Clothes here we go!!

Hi @Hal Brent Welcome to the community! BarkingDog.shop sounds like a fun one, especially with the all things dogs angle. You’ve definitely got plenty of room to get creative with videos, funny dog content, hats, tees, baby clothes, and everything in between. Since you’re new to social media, don’t overcomplicate it at the start. Focus on creating content people actually want to watch and share, test different ideas, and pay attention to what gets engagement. You’ll learn a ton just by consistently putting stuff out there. Looking forward to seeing BarkingDog.shop grow and hopefully seeing some hilarious dog content along the way! Welcome aboard!
Running Claude Code (or Hermes/GPT) for client work: one workspace, or one per client?
Question for anyone who has AI wired into how their agency actually runs. I built a workspace that holds my business context: positioning, offer, ICP, voice, strategy, numbers. It works because I stop re-explaining my business every session. Everything I ask gets answered through that lens. Now I'm bringing client work into it and I've hit a structural problem. If clients live in the same workspace, my own rules bleed into their work. My positioning rules exist to protect my sales process. Applied to a client's copy they are simply wrong, and the output still reads confident, so I don't catch it. If each client gets a separate workspace, that's solved. But then I lose the thing that makes an agency worth more each year: the pattern library. Which angles work. Which structures convert. Separate workspaces means separate brains that never learn from each other. So it's contamination on one side, amnesia on the other. Where I'm leaning: one workspace, each client isolated in their own folder, plus a shared library where proven patterns get promoted up with client-specific details stripped out. I'd like to hear from people who are already running this. 1. One workspace, or one per client? 2. How do you stop your own voice and rules from leaking into client output? 3. Does anything in your setup learn across clients, or does each client start cold? Even a one-line answer helps. Happy to report back on what I land on.

Hi @Pressage Predestin @Candace Pritchard in my opinion I’d go with the separate client folders plus shared pattern library approach. You want the AI to know the client’s business, voice, offer, and constraints first, and then pull from the broader agency library when useful. I wouldn’t let your own business context sit in the same layer as the client context because, like you said, it’ll eventually start making assumptions that are completely wrong for the client. The shared library should be more like these angles/hooks/structures have worked rather than this is how we run our business. That gives you the best of both without contaminating the client work.
I haven't paid a graphic designer for a single ad in months. Here's the workflow.
When I first ran paid ads for my agency back in 2021, every still image creative had to either be built by me in Canva or sent to a graphic designer at $20 to $50 a pop. Testing a batch of, say, 22 to 24 creatives could cost you close to $1,500 before you drop a penny on ads. Right now I'm spending $900 a day on my low ticket funnel and some of my best performing creatives are still images that came out of one workflow. A few agency owners we've shown it to have pulled their cheapest cost per leads ever from the same process. The best part is that the ads were created entirely by AI and cost maybe 10 to 20 cents in credits each per creative. The actual tools are simple. Claude writes the image prompt, Higgsfield produces the image. The part that makes it work is what you do before you prompt anything. Most people open an AI tool and type "give me 12 ad concepts for a roofing lead gen offer" and let it rip. What comes back is generic because the strategy was generic. The image is only ever as good as the thinking you feed it. So instead I steal formats that are already proven. I go into the ads library of the biggest B2B advertisers I can find, sort by impressions, and look for still image formats they keep running. If a format shows up over and over near the top, it's working. From doing this for a client last week across four niches (roofing, tree services, siding, tint and PPF) I landed on four formats: A phone mockup where the notifications on the screen are the client's dream outcome. For a roofer that's a $40,000 deposit hitting the bank and a text saying "new roof restoration quote." A fake news article layout with the client avatar in their work environment and a headline that matches the hooks from the video scripts. A whiteboard sketch comparing the old way against the new way, with a little diorama of a finished job sitting in front of it. Bold text on a red background. Stupidly simple and it's one of Cole Gordon's top performers. Four formats, four niches, sixteen ads. Each format is deliberately nothing like the others, and that matters. If your first batch is four colour variations of the same layout, you're not testing anything.

How to avoid using the same ads if all my clients are the same niche
Hi everyone, just wondering how do we stay in the same niche without using the same angles/creatives for paid ads and lead magnets? For example if I’m working for mortgage brokers wont they all need the same lead magnets? I don’t understand how I differentiate so I’m not using the same ads for all my clients.

Hi @Candace Pritchard Honestly, I wouldn’t overthink this. If you’re working with mortgage brokers, they’re going to have a lot of the same pain points, so there’s nothing wrong with using a similar lead magnet or even a proven angle across multiple clients. What you want to avoid is having the exact same ad, copy, creative and positioning for every broker. I’d keep the core offer similar but change the angle based on the individual broker. One might focus on first-home buyers, another on investors, another on self-employed borrowers, another on refinancing. Then use their location, experience, personality, process and actual results to make the ads feel specific to them. You’re not trying to reinvent the wheel for every client, you’re taking what already works and adapting it to the client.
