ONE METHOD / THING IMPACT
“ YOU NEED TO BE DOING FEWER THINGS FOR
MORE EFFECT INSTEAD OF DOING MORE
THINGS WITH SIDE EFFECTS.

”
- Gary Keller
Concept of one method
● Simplify your work by focusing ● 80% of your results come from
on one thing at a time. 20% of the things you
implement.
● Increasing your focus on one
thing will have exponential ● Focusing on one thing =
results rather than spreading Scalability
yourself thin over many things Focusing on many things =
diminishing returns
Application of the concept
● Stop expecting miracle to work ● Focusing on “One thing” at a time
for you would help you become the
master. You can’t be the jack of all
at this game!
● Focus on one strategy that
works for you for an year long ● Focus on one specific product than
time before switching over focusing on generating sales
through the whole general store.
● Jumping between methods
would just cost you more as ● Focusing on one product would let
research requires most you dominate the niche vs
investment everyone who is spreading their
efforts across many.

Product Validation
✅ Does the product solve a problem or improve quality of life?

✅ Does this product have a large target market?

✅ Is the product new or hard to find in traditional stores?

✅ Is the product unique and impressive?

✅ Is the product in an uptrend or downtrend?

✅ Are there any competitors doing well with this product?

✅ Does the product have a track record of selling well?

✅ Would you or someone you know be interested in buying this product?

Finding Good Products 101
1. If you are new do NOT test products that cater to broad audiences
(that appeal to masses) unless you have an awesome video ad.
2. Always think about who you are going to target in the AD. If you can’t
immediately think of who to target then don’t test it.

Facebook Ad Strategy Overview

Initial Data Collection

Initial Creative Test - Test 10 single interests in audience sandbox campaign
Optional but recommended - Over 2000, 95% VV LAL in new campaign (0-5%, 5
- Test 3+ creatives in a creative sandbox campaign segments)
- Use only top creative from initial test

Creative Optimization Data Driven Targeting

Optional if already profitable
- Narrow down top interests to best age/gender/country
- Test new creatives in creative sandbox
- Launch new interests similar to top ones
campaign with your best audiences to lower
- Launch new campaign for each LLA type once you have
costs
enough data (>500 events) (0-5%, 5 segments)
I.e WV, VTS 25%, ATC, IC, PUR, FB/IG
Creative Optimization ENG value-based LALs...
- Full video angle
- Scroll stopper (leading 3-sec)

Data Driven Targeting (LALs)

- Launch a new campaign for each LAL - If campaign spend is over the breakeven
type once you get enough data (>500 cost per purchase with no purchases,
events) pause campaign

- Same structure as the 95% VV LAL - Once you find 2-3 consistently
setup shown earlier profitable LAL types, you are ready
for “Super LAL” scaling
