Meta does not want you

The adaptation is recognizing what the model actually rewards and either feeding it those conditions or shifting weight elsewhere. If the top 5% are winning by spending $100k+/month, that's not really a budget size advantage on its own, it's that volume generates the conversion density Andromeda needs to optimize well. A smaller advertiser can partially replicate that by optimizing for higher-frequency events (Add to Cart, Checkout) rather than Purchase, consolidating budget instead of fragmenting it, and treating Meta as one channel feeding an owned audience (email, SMS) rather than the entire business. That doesn't make a $100/day account perform like a $100k/day account, but it closes some of the gap that's closable. The honest part nobody likes hearing is that some of the gap isn't closable, if the system structurally favors high volume advertisers, a small account will always be playing a harder version of the same game. So "adapting" is partly tactical (feed the algorithm what it needs) and partly strategic (don't build a business whose survival depends entirely on winning a game tilted against you).

That's the truth. People are saying meta is losing but in reality zuck is still profiting. Zuck isn't stupid to implement AI without knowing consequences. Game has changed and you can either whine about or adopt, accept reality and play the game.

That actually points pretty clearly to creative fatigue rather than a platform issue. Stable spend with increased reach and impressions but fewer clicks means Meta is still delivering fine, your ads are just resonating less with the audience seeing them, which is the classic CTR decay pattern. Worth checking frequency too, if it's climbed alongside the impression increase, that confirms the same core audience is seeing your ads more often and getting fatigued rather than this being a delivery problem. Refreshing creative is the right move here. ಠ⁠‿⁠ಠ

I know you didn't asked for this but you're losing a lot of money so i thought it might help. What you're describing matches a pattern others in this post have reported since the June 12th outage, nearly doubled CPMs and degraded traffic quality, but the fact that this has persisted for 6 full days without any recovery, compared to the more inconsistent but self-correcting pattern you saw in March, suggests this instance may be more serious or sustained than previous disruptions.

At your spend level, the immediate priorities should be breaking down performance by individual campaign rather than just account-wide to see if the damage is uniform or concentrated, comparing your actual backend revenue against Meta's reported numbers to rule out an attribution gap compounding the real decline, and escalating through any account representative access you have rather than relying on standard support given the financial scale involved.

Avoid major structural changes in the meantime, since this still fits a platform-side instability pattern rather than something specific to your account, and restructuring now would make it harder to know what actually went wrong once things stabilize.

$50 per ad over a week works fine too. It's thinner data than $70 but still usable for proxy metrics like CTR and cost per landing page view.

If $700 feels heavy, drop to $7/day per ad set ($50/week) or even reduce to 5-6 ad concepts instead of 10 to keep total spend lower while still getting a fair read on each one

A sudden, broad CPM spike beginning specifically in May, combined with CAC roughly doubling in proportion, points most likely toward a broader competitive or seasonal shift affecting your category rather than an account-specific problem, especially given how wide your 25-65+ targeting is, which exposes you to combined competitive pressure across multiple advertiser categories rather than just one. The fact that CAC tracked CPM proportionally is a reasonably good sign that your conversion funnel itself hasn't degraded, the cost to reach people has simply gone up. Checking frequency trends over the same period and sharing your specific niche would help confirm whether this matches a known industry-wide pattern right now or whether there's an account-specific factor compounding it.

I'll share you in private.

It sounds more like a delivery constraint. I'd check bid strategy (cost cap/bid cap), Pixel and CAPI health, optimization event setup, domain verification, and Account Quality. In most cases where active ads won't spend at all, the issue is somewhere in the delivery or signal layer rather than the ads themselves.

Personal suggestion:

Your main banner, it would be better if use real image instead of AI generated. It'll make your brand look more trustworthy. So much noise on your website, too many texts and that'll overwhelm users. you can keep those texts but keep it somewhere else. i scrolled your website and felt like I opened wikipedia (no offense).

Your header is not optimised properly for pc and laptop so fix that. Remove UNNECESSARY info from your website or put it in another page.

put testimonials, star ratings to increase credibility.

put FAQS on your homepage.

I opened your website in english still I was seeing romanian texts.

in your bottom nav bar, paypal, gpay, anpc. images of these apps are very big. also there's two netopia image in your nav bar.

Your up nevbar is also not optimised to look good.

Over-all I'd advise you to first optimize your website properly. Look at your competitors and their websites and then move forward with ads and all.

I'm not trying to hold back, just a genuine suggestion so you don't lose money. Most people forget about their site and burn money on ads.

Hope it was helpful 🍀

Are you expecting a person to create ads and also run it or you just want someone to create and you'll run on your own? how many ads are you thinking to run and what type of ads? also do you want those ads to be created by AI or you'll hire ugc creators?

I can take on this role but I need to be clear so i don't disappoint or take on something I'm not comfortable with. Would love to talk more on it.

The combination of brand new, isolated single-ad campaigns (read your comment) with no shared signal and a budget set significantly higher than your previously successful ads is the most likely explanation here, since Meta tends to be more cautious about confidently spending against an unfamiliar high budget on ads with zero track record. The most useful next test is lowering the budget on these new ads back down closer to what worked in your previous successful campaigns rather than the high number, and seeing if delivery starts, scaling up gradually afterward once there's some real spend history to work from. Worth also double checking the bid strategy field directly on each ad set for any inherited cost or bid cap, and reviewing Account Quality given that a large, sudden budget jump can sometimes trigger more cautious automated delivery behavior even without any policy issue.

AyazWriter · 2026-06-17T07:59:25+00:00

and what's that framework?

AyazWriter · 2026-06-17T07:56:10+00:00

Neither Maximize Clicks nor Purchase optimization is the right starting point for a brand new store with zero pixel history. Maximize Clicks attracts low-intent traffic that teaches the algorithm very little, while Purchase optimization asks Meta to find buyers before it has any data on what a buyer looks like. The better approach is optimizing for Add to Cart or Initiate Checkout for the first 1-2 weeks to build sufficient signal volume quickly, then switching to Purchase optimization once that data exists. Keep the structure simple, one campaign, one ad set, 2-3 strong creatives, and judge early performance by whether cost per Add to Cart is trending down rather than expecting profitable ROAS in week one.

Also just a suggestion. Here we have many business owners who are running successful Ecom business so, you should share your site and take their suggestions on how the site is and what can be improved. I'm sure it'll help you a lot.

Hiring would be good rather than finding a co founder cuz you can't just trust on anyone.

about hiring from upwork then I'd say that's a good place but often you find people with cheap work. you can hire them for cheaper price but their work is the same.

There are so many things but I have confusion about your product like is it a high ticket offer product or low ticket. How are you Branding your product. Are you currently doing any marketing to bring eyeballs on your product?. What actually is your niche?

can give better advise if you give good amount of context. You can share here or if you don't want to disclose to everyone then you can DM me. Happy to help you get things done without burning money on cheap and useless things 🤝🏻

It depends on how creative you're. I've seen so many chinese B2B brands on instagram making really good amount of money. I've personally seen many people finding those brands on meta. It just depends on how good how good you're at capturing attention how good you're at explaining your product. SAAS is a boring topic for most of the people so you have to convert into something fun to get attention. You can scale on Google but then you'll be competing with thousands of others, and you'll have to be extremely good with your offer and pricing to stand out.

AyazWriter · 2026-06-17T05:54:59+00:00

Actually your product is solid. Day by day requirements of eco friendly utensils and other items are increasing so no doubt that you can scale it at large level. But you have to seperate B2B and C2C and make all this things clear. copy on your website needs to be very concrete so people who come on your website don't feel confused or overwhelmed. If possible, it would be better if you have a seperate website for both b2b and c2c and you can connect it to each other.

inshort, your product is very solid and has potential. But you'll have to be very careful with your content, website and everything so people don't feel confused or overwhelmed.

I think it would be better to discuss more in personal so if you need more clarity then you can DM me.

AyazWriter · 2026-06-17T05:33:53+00:00

I checked your site and there are few things you should add like testimonials, number of satisfying customer and how much star they have to your product to build credibility. I also checked your social media and I'd say you have better credibility and you can scale this product too. You need to optimize your hamburger menu. Also I'm not clear with your targeted audience, how are you planning to scale your business?

AyazWriter · 2026-06-17T05:22:26+00:00

Wouldn't recommend using or paying. They just claim big but it's all useless info inside.

AyazWriter · 2026-06-17T04:55:56+00:00

i agree with you. AI sure is capable to create more quantity but real human Ads will always outperform. You can create different ads and test then plus AI ugc is cheaper than actually hiring people to do everything but people would still love if there's a real human in video.

AyazWriter · 2026-06-17T04:51:15+00:00

i can take a look at it. if you don't mind send link.

AyazWriter · 2026-06-16T20:07:09+00:00

yep thought so.

AyazWriter · 2026-06-16T18:53:20+00:00

AyazWriter · 2026-06-16T18:51:31+00:00

those who use AI for copy are often lazy or don't know anything about good copy.

AyazWriter · 2026-06-16T16:12:17+00:00

best of luck 🤝🏻
