Phase 5: First Week Monitoring Plan

Day 1-2: Learning Phase

Goal: Let algorithm learn, gather data

Actions:

• Monitor delivery and tracking
• Check for errors
• Ensure budget pacing correctly
• DO NOT make changes yet

Red Flags:

• No conversions after $500 spend
• Tracking broken
• Ads not delivering
• Frequency > 4.0

Day 3-5: Initial Optimization

Goal: Identify early winners and losers

Actions:

• @performance-analyst analyzes data
• Identify ad sets with no conversions
• Identify ad sets with CPA > Target × 1.5
• Prepare kill/scale recommendations

Decision Point:

• Minimum 50 conversions ideal for decisions
• Can make early kills if obvious failures
• Wait for more data before scaling

Day 5-7: First Optimization Round

Goal: Kill losers, scale winners

Actions:

• @performance-analyst: *apply-kill-scale
• @ad-midas: *scale-optimize
• Kill underperformers
• Scale top performers
• Add new creative variations

Phase 6: Contingency Plans

If Tracking Breaks

Symptoms:

• Conversions = 0 after significant spend
• Events not showing in Events Manager
• Event match quality drops

Action Plan:

1. @pixel-specialist investigates immediately
2. @ad-midas pauses campaigns if necessary
3. Fix tracking before resuming
4. Test conversions before reactivating

Timeline: Fix within 2-4 hours or pause

If No Conversions After $500

Symptoms:

• $500+ spent
• 0 conversions
• Tracking confirmed working

Action Plan:

1. @pixel-specialist: Audit tracking (*audit-tracking)
2. @performance-analyst: Analyze funnel (*analyze-funnel)
3. @creative-analyst: Review hooks (hook rate < 15%?)
4. @ad-midas: Decide to fix or kill

Possible Issues:

• Tracking problem (most common)
• Poor creative (low hook rate/CTR)
• Wrong audience
• Funnel problem (landing page)
• Offer problem

If CPA Too High

Symptoms:

• CPA > Target × 1.5
• Conversions happening but too expensive

Action Plan:

1. @performance-analyst: Diagnose issue (*diagnose-metrics)
2. Identify problem area:
   • Targeting (wrong audience?)
   • Creative (low CTR/hook rate?)
   • Funnel (low CVR?)
3. @ad-midas: Coordinate fix with appropriate agent

Optimization Options:

• Improve creative (if low CTR)
• Refine targeting (if wrong audience)
• Optimize landing page (if low CVR)
• Adjust bid strategy

If Budget Pacing Off

Symptoms:

• Spending too fast (>120% of target)
• Spending too slow (<80% of target)

Action Plan:

Too Fast:

• Check bid strategy (too aggressive?)
• Check audience size (too broad?)
• Consider cost cap bid strategy
• May need to reduce budget

Too Slow:

• Check audience size (too narrow?)
• Check bid strategy (too conservative?)
• Check ad quality score
• Consider increasing bids
• May need to expand audiences

Expert Frameworks Applied

Jeremy Haynes - Launch Readiness

• Validate all "constants" before launch
• Don't change multiple variables post-launch
• Let algorithm learn (3-5 days minimum)

Brian Moncada - Systematic Approach

• Follow checklist religiously
• Monitor systematically
• Make data-driven decisions only

Alex Hormozi - Economics First

• Never launch without validated unit economics
• LTV:CAC > 3:1 is non-negotiable
• Track economics from day 1

Common Mistakes to Avoid

❌ Launching without tracking validation

• Always test conversions before launch
• Verify CAPI is working (EMQ > 6.0)

❌ Making changes too early

• Wait 3-5 days for algorithm to learn
• Don't panic if no conversions in first hours

❌ Ignoring early warning signs

• No impressions = delivery issue
• No clicks = creative problem
• Clicks but no conversions = tracking or funnel issue

❌ Not monitoring first 24 hours

• Critical to catch issues early
• Small problems become expensive quickly

❌ Launching without team alignment

• All agents must know their monitoring responsibilities
• Escalation process must be clear

Success Criteria

✅ Launch Successful:

• All pre-launch checks passed
• Campaigns activated without errors
• Ads delivering within first hour
• Tracking working (events firing)
• No critical issues in first 2 hours
• Monitoring dashboard active
• Team briefed and aligned

✅ First 24 Hours Healthy:

• Impressions accumulating
• Clicks happening (CTR > 0.5%)
• Budget pacing correctly (80-120%)
• Tracking working (no errors)
• At least 1 conversion (ideal, but not required)

✅ First Week on Track:

• Minimum 10 conversions
• CPA within 2× target
• No major tracking issues
• At least 1 winning ad set identified
