How a Simple Change to Your Meta Ads Can Transform Your Campaign Performance

Many businesses running Meta ad campaigns already see a decent Return on Ad Spend (ROAS), often ranging from 1.4 to 1.9. However, when we audit accounts at our media buying agency, we frequently find that brands rely too heavily on a single ‘hero’ product to drive all their traffic.

This approach can limit growth and prevent other products from gaining traction, forcing businesses to depend on retargeting to generate additional sales.

The Issue: Over-Reliance on a Single Product

Consider an e-commerce brand managing nine separate Meta ad campaigns, all built around one flagship product. They advertise in multiple markets and constantly question where to allocate budget for the best return:

• Should they focus on their largest audience segment?

• Do different regions require unique messaging or offers?

• How can they balance testing new approaches without sacrificing performance?

Despite these strategic considerations, many advertisers struggle with inefficient campaign structures that lead to wasted spend and missed opportunities.

The Fix: Streamline Campaigns and Leverage Advantage+

One of the most impactful changes we implement for clients is consolidating their campaigns. Rather than managing multiple fragmented campaigns, we structure one well-optimised campaign with separate ad sets for different regions.

This allows us to harness Meta’s Advantage+ feature, which dynamically adjusts budget allocation based on real-time performance data.

Why Advantage+ is a Game-Changer

Meta’s AI-driven algorithms have become increasingly sophisticated in predicting optimal budget allocation. Through extensive testing across various industries, our media buying agency has observed that Advantage+ consistently improves ROAS by automatically shifting spend to the highest-performing ad sets.

For e-commerce brands, where every percentage point in ROAS impacts profit margins, this automated efficiency is critical. Production costs, packaging, and shipping all contribute to expenses, meaning any performance lift directly benefits the bottom line.

The Impact: Smarter Ad Spend Allocation

Meta’s Advantage+ ensures that ad spend is distributed dynamically based on consumer engagement trends. Seasonality and market fluctuations play a huge role in when and where ads perform best. A prime example is the UK’s ‘payday effect,’ where spending surges by up to 380% over payday weekends.

Advantage+ automatically scales high-performing ads to capitalise on these trends in real time. By restructuring campaigns and allowing Meta’s AI to optimise spend, brands can:

• Eliminate inefficiencies caused by overly segmented campaigns

• Achieve better results without increasing ad spend

• React instantly to changing consumer behaviour

• Ensure budget flows toward the highest-performing ads
