Just because a highly produced ad has a higher CPA than a UGC ad doesn't mean it's not worth running.
Different creative styles can resonate with different types of customers.
The goal shouldn't be to make every ad look like your lowest CPA winner. It should be to find creative that helps you reach more customers profitably.
We're casting UK-based UGC creators for an upcoming campaign with a major dating app. Must be from the UK and living in the UK.

TheLab is officially live externally. We use this for all internal reporting, ai insights, profit tracker, and currently working on an MTA which will be rolled out at the same price of $99 a month.
We will continue to build tools into the platform and as we build them for our internal team we will test and roll out externally, with the mission to never raise the price.
Our goal is to not use this as a revenue driver but to provide the ability for smaller D2C stores to have access to some of the same tools which bigger companies use and drive growth.
Available in the Shopify App Store

This is our buddy @cory__cummings company and we have been privileged enough to use this on a lot of our clients while it was in Beta and it has been a game changer.
Not supposed to replace building long standing landing pages but it is a quick way to test messaging, pushing specific products, etc.
Spins up an LP in 5 mins, tests only from meta, clean digestible data for you to take back to the team to align ads or build PDPs/Landing Pages around the messaging.
Highly Recommend.

We've onboarded 24 brands onto Playbook in the last 2 weeks. Here's what we're learning:
What's working:
→ Speed is the unlock: Brands are launching landing page tests quickly. Some merchants are going from ad upload to live test in under 2 hours. The bottleneck is now your creative, not your pages.
→ The numbers are real: We're seeing higher CVR lifts (will pull specifics soon) and the treatment outperforming the control in majority of the cases. Not every test wins (that's the point) but when you can run 4 tests in the time it used to take to run 1, you find winners faster.
→ The playbook is changing: Instead of spending $$$$ with an agency to build "the perfect landing page," brands are testing 3-4 messaging angles quickly, then doubling down on what converts. Cheaper. Faster. Less guessing.
What's not:
→ Teams are strapped: Even when brands are excited, finding bandwidth to run tests is real. Going to continue to improve the product and add enablement services.
→ Learning curves exist: Getting teams comfortable with a new workflow takes time. We're building better onboarding to fix this.
Still early. Lots to learn.
If you're running paid ads or focusing on retention on Shopify and want to test this with us, DM me.

I keep hearing people say Gemini 3 crushes ChatGPT 5.1. I really wanted that to be true, since it's tied to the entire Google ecosystem. But so far, I’m running into constant errors on basic requests and noticeably weaker outputs. Yes, it’s faster, and image/video features are better. But for a lot of prompts outside of that, ChatGPT still feels ahead. Genuinely curious if others are seeing the same, or if I’m missing something.

The energy spent demonizing creators would be better spent figuring out how to create something yourself
