KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE
Don't worry about the algorithm. Have good creatives and do what other brands aren't doing.
Do whitelisting - running ads through non-brand handles.
You need to do one of two things or both-- build a relationship with an influencer or create media pages of your own.
Bring up whitelisting early in the conversation when building a relationship.
It doesn't matter how big their page or following is. The point is it doesn't look like the brand's handle.
People don't come to Instagram to look at ads. They want to look at content that they are interested in.
Some of the landing pages that you can do are 5 Reasons Why, Sales Pages with FAQs and reviews, and Quizzes
TikTok-style ads or User-generated content are working best.
The brands doing well and scaling on Facebook have native-looking content.
Throw everything at the wall and test what sticks.
Be willing to test, which means testing something that is not necessarily your favorite thing.
Be willing to do whatever the account needs. Don't stick to what you think is going to work.
