Meta Ads are evolving—and if you’re still clinging to Advantage+ Shopping campaigns, you’re already behind. In this high-impact episode, Ralph Burns and John Moran pull back the curtain on their $4M+ test using Meta’s new Advantage+ Sales Campaigns, breaking down what’s working right now in the face of Meta’s June 25th switchover. You’ll hear why "one campaign, one ad set, 50 ads" is more than just a tactic—it’s the future. Whether you’re running a low-volume brand or managing high-ticket spends, this episode is your tactical field guide to staying ahead of Meta’s automation curve. Plus, discover how John’s 3-month test is outperforming traditional structures—and how you can apply it today.
