2 of my brands had their Meta accounts go down in the last 2 weeks. 1 was a payment flag (they had no issue with payment and it was a Meta glitch). The other was hacked and turned off as a precaution.
Both instances were temporary. But could be very damaging if there wasn't immediate action. We ripped WAY MORE EMAILS and diverted some incremental spend to AppLovin and Demand Gen. We also set up a backup Meta account for 1 of the brands as it took what felt like a long time to get the issue sorted. We're going to keep that backup account warm in case this ever comes up again.
In moments like this I'm glad to have more than 1 working channel that drives TOF and DEMAND. Both of these brands are diversified across Meta, CTV, Google, TikTok, AppLovin, OOH.

MEME OF THE WEEK:
TOOL OF THE WEEK:
My Tool of the Week is this (anonymous) survey because I want 1st dibs on the results. Join me? A tool for the future.
Iโll use the (again, anonymous) answers to make a report, so we can all get smarter.
I want to know what youโre focused on. How youโre thinking. The channels working for you (or not.)
More responses = better data = better report. Thatโs the deal.
Chamberlain Coffee: Strawberries & Cream, relaunched during Wimbledon's final week (this was last week). I am partial to the brand bc I'm an investor and used to work with them but is the packaging not to die for?
Wish this was timed a little earlier - at the start of Wimbledon but it's okay.
That's all I have for you this week!! Until Sunday LOL. I hope you liked, and let me know what you think / what other topics or brands we should talk about. The request line is absolutely open.
As always: Rooting for you more than you know and hope you have the best weekend EVER.
Yours,
Ari
