How I find $1m-ad-concepts without getting lucky...
Everyone tells you mega viral ad ideas come from organic…
And it is true…
There’s a hook I found on IG about a year ago.
And every time I use it.
It wins...across many offers... and unrelated niches.
But scrolling on IG and TikTok to find this ideas sucks.
At least for me personally.
So here’s my workaround.
Which puts the organic-idea-mining strategy on steroids.
Pay for this Chrome extension VidIQ.
This thing…
Rates content on outlier multiples.
And it works on IG, TikTok, and YouTube.
Low-hanging fruit wins, first…
1. Install the extension
2. Create a dummy IG account (engage with content in your niche)
3. Let the extension sort viral breakouts, evergreen posts, view velocity
(It legit will extract the best ideas for you without you having to stumble across a good one by luck.)
Juicy hanging fruit…
1. Assuming you already have the extension
2. Connect the MCP to Claude
3. Now just ask it to find you the outliers and put them on a spreadsheet for you (bonus points: ask it to give you a direct correlation to your offer so it becomes easy to adapt)
Extra juicy hanging fruit…
If you know the criteria of ads that do well in your offer…
Describe that to Claude.
For me: I need ideas that feel out of reach… like Asian knowledge only the elders in this small village have…
So I describe or make criteria for Claude.
And then I turn that into a workflow that runs every Friday to hunt for those ideas on autopilot.

Although the media buyer butchered my name…
He just blessed me with this 7-day report. My ads have spent $228,539
The hook rate avg is 54% and my avg CPA is at $83.
Which is $13 below our target (target cpa $96).
The total ads look crazy but that combines iterations and remakes of my ads.
Things like hook changes, or avatar swaps.
4/9 Minimize phone time and avoid YouTube. 📵 Taking a digital detox helps reduce stress, and gives me time to engage in activities that are more fulfilling and calming.
@jennymaustria Love this. I have a similar experience a year ago, I moved to a remote town in Central America because I didn't need people . But I was craving human connection just a few months in. Had to come back to the busy city lol
@RubinaGomes Very profound lesson, I once heard something along the lines of "if you please your parents, friends, teachers and preachers you'll end up miserable"👏🏽👏🏽
