Ever been told to cut your losers and let your winners run? It sounds simple enough, but what if this popular advice is actually hurting your ad performance? In today’s episode, we’ll uncover why focusing on CPA (Cost Per Acquisition) might be misleading and what you should do instead to optimize your ad strategy.
Tier 11’s John Moran walks us through an experiment where we tested ad sequencing and creative strategies. The results prove that cutting ads based purely on CPA could cost you more than you think.
We’ll also break down the right approach to assessing ad performance in the Andromeda era and how understanding traffic stages can completely change the way you think about your ad spend.
