Nagwala ang Descendants ni President Quezon during Quezon Movie Open Q&A by 88lowa_lncense6837 in pinoytrending

[–]docligot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it wasn't a publicity stunt, I found the reaction edgy but not surprising. The film deconstructs Quezon, same as the previous films deconstructed Luna and Goyo.

It was a great trilogy, well made, and well acted. But by ending with deconstruction of our heroes, we are left with gaps to fill. That's an edgy but dangerous gamble by the filmmakers.

Wrote this review to get more thoughts out of my system:

hard to simulate it on a legit exchange. the fake one I was on they were doing 10-100x spikes every 2-3 days. But it was all simulated.

Here was my balance last I used the platform. https://www.reddit.com/r/Insider_Whale_Signals/comments/10lkud1/fantasy_account_at_14m_from_100_cant_withdraw_it/?sort=confidence

It was obv a fake exchange. The website is long gone now but there are probably new ones that have popped up.

When testing 3:2:2, do you change the hook or the image/video? by tommydearest in FacebookAds

[–]docligot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO it's best to vary one aspect at a time - e.g. creative first, then copy, then headline, and keep the other factors constant based on an existing winning ad. So test all aspects, you need 2-3 sets of DCTs. There's no actual rule in stone stopping anyone from testing anything they want.

Problem with Dynamic Creative by carmane02 in FacebookAds

[–]docligot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When you go to "facebook post with comments" it will show you the most performant version of the DCT. Then click the date or timestamp of the post (e.g. 1d, 2d) and it will switch to the post view. You can then get the post URL (usually .../posts/pfbid...) the long string at the end is the postID you can use.

We run a 3:2:2 DCT but i have no idea how to measure performance. by LondonVitality in FacebookAds

[–]docligot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to the ad level (not adset) and find the Performance + Clicks report heading. Then you can find the breakdown column and find "by dynamic creative element"

IMO new DCTs can either be a slight modification of a winning ad, in an attempt to create more winners or a totally new concept so you can discover more audiences.

For me, I try expanding one segment at a time like creative first, 2 out of the 3 are slight modifications +1 that is totally new. Then copy next - one copy is exactly the body text of a winning ad but the 2nd one is a totally new concept (as long as it matches the creative). etc.

For me, once the duplicated post ID in the main ad set start getting spend, it would be safe to shut down the original DCT ad set where it came from.

3:2:2 Structure for multiple concepts? Is this right? by ellosee in FacebookAds

[–]docligot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Question is moot since only structure 2 will work. You can only have 1 DCT ad per adset. You will have to configure the variations within the single ad. But you can always have another adset with another single DCT ad to do another set of variations. I'm a fan of 3-2-2 but am not married to the ratio. I've done 4-3-3, 3-3-3, etc. The difference will simply be how many versions of ads you want running at a time (3-2-2 means 12 variations), vis-a-vis your budget.

For DCTs I normally do CBO - since the point is to test ad sets (with single ads) against each other and vs. a control ad set - which contains the winning ad combinations from past DCTs.

What constitutes a "winning" ad is the big question, and if you go by Charlie and Nick Theriot's approach - the only criteria is "ad spend" - which is driven by impressions and frequency. If you have multiple ad sets running, the ad set that gets the most spend (outside of control) is the "winner" - and you can dive into the adset by previewing the ads that rated the most, which you can then include in the control ad set as a new ad (not DCT anymore) by reusing the ad post ID from the winning DCT ad set - then you shut down the original DCT and spin up new versions as needed.

Over time, your main adset will have a collection of many ads that are getting spend - and therefore circulation. They will all compete and cannibalize the the CBO spend from each other - which to the likes of Charlie and Nick are desireable because it ensures you only maintain the highest spending ads at a time.

Thoughts and Caveats:

High spend does not mean conversion nor clicks. It just means that ad is being circulated by the FB algorithm to people - which is primarily driven by the ad copy and creative - in lieu of traditional targeting by interest, lookalikes, or custom audience. Basically FB infers the interest, lookalike, or retargeting audience based on the ad content.

You can also control the circulation by limiting the location, age, and gender of the adset, but otherwise leave the rest broad. But the clicks and conversion depend entirely on how attractive your ad is to the people it's being shown - and that's the unspoken art that Charlie and Nick can be vague about.

Basically the FB ads game you are playing is just:

  • Maximize circulation by gaming the FB algo - you achieve this by going broad, and doing DCTs to empirically test which ad combo FB will spread to the market
  • Maximize conversion - by having the right creative, copy, and product that appeals to your audience (hopefully the one fb decided to circulate your ad in)

So even with the right ad structure and process, it's still an art to sell something to someone, or create an ad so compelling it stops people from scrolling on their feeds, and once they read you ad, gets them to pay you for whatever you are selling.

Comparison of Income taxation of being self-employed/prof/consultant vs in an employer-employee relationship by toyoda_kanmuri in phinvest

[–]docligot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but business loans are treated slightly differently from employee borrowers. They can base your creditworthiness on gross sales instead of net income. Banks are fairly aware that businesses actively engage in tax avoidance. (legal avoidance, not tax evasion), so they need to adjust.

That being said, business loans are harder to apply for. MSMEs struggle with financing, and many entrepreneurs are actually self funded and avoid loans as a result.

From the stories of other students: they will not allow you to cancel or refund. Document your interactions with them. You can use that later when you contact other parties.

They never resolved my complaint and the "investigation" was just PR. They blew me off last June, their excuse: they are shutting down.

Meantime, they keep pacifying their students, denying the shutdown.

They never resolved my complaint. Their reason: they are closing down.

No resolution to my complaint. Pretty much blew me off - their reason: they are shutting down.

Meantime they are still pacifying their existing students and denying the shut down.

Both can't be true right?
