In this episode of Scalability School, Andrew Foxwell, Zach Stuck, and Brad Ploch share a battle-tested blueprint for breaking out of creative fatigue and scaling spend without watching your CPA creep upward. Their central thesis is that “creative diversity” is more than pumping out dozens of ads as it’s the deliberate intersection of personas, messaging pillars, angles, and formats that lets Meta’s delivery system find pockets of incremental performance you would never hit with volume alone.
Key Takeaways:
Are strict constraints the secret sauce that actually unlocks creativity and cheaper CPAs? How does a simple ‘pillar vs. angle’ grid expose the real gaps in your ad account? Which matters more for performance: the hook, the message, or the visual format? What’s the minimum viable number of concepts you must launch each month to stay ahead of fatigue? When should you double-down on a winning persona and when is it time to pivot? In-house editor vs. agency retainer, where does the math break in 2025? Could spending just one extra afternoon a week on creative planning move you past that $250 k/mo plateau?Motion is the creative strategy command center.
